Ark: Survival Ascended The Island Artifact Of The Brute Cave Guide

[@17PAT17]

After the first explore note. When you start swimming to that little open area.. on my map there was like 100 megalodons. Ranging from lvl 50 to 300.

[@17PAT17]

My friend and I had to get them to chase us away from there and killed them one my one. We used the deinosuchus. So we could go on that little land area

[@StephLyonTV]

Wow you got REALLY unlucky with the spawns 😭😭 hope yall survived and got the artifact ?

[@17PAT17]

@@StephLyonTV very unlucky we survived but had to leave before getting the artifact. We didn’t bring enough oxygen tanks 😂😂. So I hope things don’t respawn back.

[@StephLyonTV]

Good luck 🤣🤣 but it’s scary cuz that’s the easy underwater cave 😭😭 the next one is CRAZY if you get bad spawns

[@17PAT17]

@@StephLyonTV oh man 😂😂😂

[@gam3th3rapy333]

I FINALLY did this cave in 1 run and got the artifact. I've always gotten lost in the past. PLEASE keep doing vids, so much help. I literally have never been able to finish this cave in over 8 years. You have my gratititude. ❤

[@StephLyonTV]

Nice!!!! I’m happy they’re helping you out! I use to hate doing caves as well but then when I went to PvP I had to do them solo so I learned the hard way 🤣🥲 I’ll try my best to cover all caves the same way 🫡💯

[@Famousfornow1]

Love your guides my dude! Legit the perfect level of detail. You can definitely tell you put in effort making these. Thanks!

[@Dekatries2]

Best artifact cave guides on youtube. You the best!

[@StephLyonTV]

Preciate you 🫡 make sure to check out my devourer guide if you need to ! 🔥

[@zulmano]

Thank you for your video bud. Helps me a ton. Not to long and not to boring either.

[@StephLyonTV]

Appreciate that 🫡 glad they help out 💯

[@MrRoadie36]

Thank you so much, the pace of the video is perfect

[@StephLyonTV]

No problem 🫡🔥

[@draycephantom9940]

The commands works the same in consoles they just need to enable the commands in their settings. Alternatively in pc u can lower the General shadows and you’ll be able to see underwater clearly without having to enter commands

[@UnveiledCarp]

THANKS I really needed that guides of caves and bosses are absolutly magnificent, Thank You, new subscriber : )

[@StephLyonTV]

Thanks for the subscribe 🫡 I have playlists on each map I’ve covered so far if you need anymore guides 💯

[@UnveiledCarp]

@@StephLyonTV Thanks 👍

[@sussybaka8527]

really good you show us were to find drops and explorer notes as well. That way we dont have to search through reddit or something. Thx

[@StephLyonTV]

No problem, I try to cover as much as I can without making it too complicated 🫡🔥

[@bnanderson117]

Awesome guide, super straight forward. Thanks!

[@StephLyonTV]

No problem! Glad it helped it out 🫡🔥

[@benmorrissey7610]

You make it look so easy. I’ve lost more Dino than I can count.😂 Ty

[@StephLyonTV]

@@benmorrissey7610 most things are easier when you come prepared, caves have higher damage multipliers than the overland so you might be strong topside but in a cave you’re more squishy! I’m trying to make these caves doable for everyone at almost every stage of the game !!

[@xSTONYTARKx]

To open the console commands on xbox press start and then select. This will open the menu, the command you type in is the same as in the video.

[@StephLyonTV]

Thanks Ironman 🥲🫡 my hero 😭🔥

[@GaamerGuyys]

On PS5 it's options then the big button (I don't know the name)

[@mamapuma5150]

Great video, although I hope it is as easy for me. I heard there's a pretty bad overspawn issue on unofficial in this cave, so I guess I will see when I get there.

[@StephLyonTV]

Yes there’s pretty bad over spawn, if you’re lucky it may just be fishes but if you have a few throw away water Dino’s like megladon or basilo, bring a few as fodder, they’ll either help you through the whole cave or give you time to run to safety and get out 🤣

[@ivanklaric5341]

if it helps, my buddy and I we have our own pve server. we used the new modded creature dragonic clause. it's a good mod creatures that helped us run thru the water cave with ease

[@THColt45]

@@ivanklaric5341 adding mods to help you or manipulating base game settings is not a fun way to play Ark. it doesn’t feel accomplishing

[@TobyCopper]

When I did this cave a pack of about 20 cave lvl megaladons and an alpha megaladon lvl 300 killed me in about a minute. The alpha was hitting harder than a titanosaur. Why did wildcard put cave level alphas in the game?

[@StephLyonTV]

So yeah, the cave is super weird, a lot of the mobs especially alphas spawn inside the walls so you can’t see them, so imagine 2 alpha sharks then the one you can see is also alpha boosted so alpha lvl300 boosted and hits like a titan 🥲🥲

[@blakey9089]

Imma take my otter and one and done this now, hopefulky fungers crossed theres not to much respawning inbetween artifact respawns. Thanks as always

[@mesaplayer9636]

You can do comands on console now. On PlayStation press options then touchpad.

[@Raiziell]

Since they've added XiphaDerpyFish to the game, these caves have gotten so much harder. The group right at the entrance shreds me basilo nearly every time.

[@1dewoine]

Yeah I found out the hard way I went with a freshly tamed 140 basil got shredded by them they're like 15 of them and we melted .

[@Raiziell]

@@1dewoine Thankfully, if you hug the top of the caves, they tend to not aggro.

[@cocoabutter9974]

lol I just did this and lost my basi and a capped set of gear, that’s just how ark goes I guess. Never know what your gonna get

[@dogsbreakfast4952]

Perfect guide

[@raphaelcarrier7193]

What kind of stat/saddle on the basilo do you recommend for this cave?

[@StephLyonTV]

30-50K HP range, I’d normally choose 40K ish as if you’re unlucky you may get multiple alphas at once, saddle anything from 50+ armor should get you in and out safely

[@raphaelcarrier7193]

@@StephLyonTV thanks man!

[@nibbsplaysgames6263]

on console hit the start button then the select button and type in the command. then you can just scroll to it every time.

[@GaamerGuyys]

The entrance for me is lat 54.4 long 3.9 I don't know why the longitude is so different

[@midnight515martinez9]

So would a beelzebufo be strong enough and where do I get that fish your on

[@StephLyonTV]

Well no….never take a beelze in here 😅😅 I’m using a basilo, you can find them in mostly mid ocean areas, normally guarded by a horde of manta ray. Passive tame so when you kill the manta you can swim up and feed it kibble or prime. They do attract more manta and after you feed them sometimes so kill everything near by

[@dogsbreakfast4952]

I always preach the basilasaurus for water caves!!

[@LonelyHermit08]

The amount of times I swam past that bloody Artifact….

[@StephLyonTV]

🤣 it’s not just you don’t worry, I once died because I wasted so much time looking then left that room and an alpha mosa had spawned in the cave 🫠🫠

[@GaamerGuyys]

​@@StephLyonTVoh that's why it has a death marker on the map

[@carolinestone2157]

Thanks

No problem 😊
