How to Fight the Final Boss of Fjordur, Fenrisúlfr! - ARK Fjordur

[@Syntac]

Thoughts on the progression system on this map? I love how they went the extra mile for us :) Forgot to include it but all you get from Fenrir is the Tek Sword Tekgram Get 10% Off your own Fjordur Server www.g-portal.com?ref=Syntac

[@frog6375]

it’s nice.

[@lycoonx.m]

Syntac you got it right that Hati and Skoll are the children of Fenrir, another fact is that skoll chases the sun to devour it and Hati does the same for the moon and in Norse myth the lunar and solar eclipse’s were believed to be skoll or Hati finally catching the sun or moon and eating it and immediately throwing them up when the eclipse was over

so i figured out how the fenrir level works, it's a 100% efficiency tame from your server's mad level, so a 180 max level would yield a 270 fenrir etc.

[@thesixstistari5604]

Considering that there is literally helms deep on this map, I think it is safe to assume that the black lava castle in the dragon arena is also inspired by Tolkiens mithology, specifically the Morannon, the black gate of Mordor

[@matthewgrobel5587]

In Norse mythology Hati and Sköll are the two wolves that chase the sun and moon, and near the beginning of Ragnarok they catch up and eat the sun and moon. Also Fenrir or the Fenris Wolf was chained up as a prisoner with Gleipnir, a chain made of impossible things that was unbreakable. On the day of Ragnarok the three roosters(?) of Yggdrasil crowed and set all the prisoners of the nine worlds free, including Fenrir.

[@alejandroalameda5459]

Are you referring to God of War (2018) or one of the two Norse Eddas?

[@arkking552]

Also Fenrir is supposed to eat Odin in Ragnarok I believe

[@Travminer123]

[@oflynnian8462]

I was gunna go into a detailed rant about how this post was a little inaccurate but I don’t have the energy at 3am. I’d love to talk about the gods more, but I’m pretty sure this stories a little off.

[@oflynnian8462]

Fenrir was bound to a rock on an isle named Lyngvi somewhere in Kattegat. The first two chains, named Laedingr and Dromi, were forged by Thor and did not hold him thus introducing Gleipnir (not the sexy dog suit). Odin (bid daddy upstairs) made some dude named Tyr put the gleipnir on his neck, Fenrir complied in exchange Tyr had to put his arm in Wolfs mouth resulting in one less arm 👀 Odin, coming to terms that he can’t keep Fenrir contained after re failed attempts with L & D he sent Skol and Hati after the sun and moon causing Ragnarok to begin.

[@harshit_Kumar066]

Hati and Skoll are actually the sons of Fenrir, so we can say that they are the sons of ferisulfr indeed.

[@stellarkin1232]

and they are gold and blue because one pursues the moon, and the other pursues the sun

[@alejandroalameda5459]

Fenrir, Skel and Hati are the children of Loki in Norse Mythology

[@sparkler3765]

Damn Syntac…. I really appreciate all the effort you put into these videos and how you keep working hard for them

[@dvdjhp]

those fenrirs looking at you. that was cute as hell

[@grummdoesstuff2983]

steinbjorn is nothing special in Norse mythology, just a mythical ice bear. Beyla is just another mythical creature, though she is married to Byggvir, an unremarkable god we know little about. Hati and Skoll, however, are very important. They are the sister and brother wolves of the sun and the moon respectively. They chase Sol and Mani, the sun and moon, and eventually catch them, triggering the start of Ragnarök. All of them, including Byggvir, are children of Freyr (Yes, Beyla married her brother, its mythology), and serve his bidding while he is still chained, and release him when Ragnarök begins.

[@humbelduff2916]

Beyla is believed to be the godess of bees

[@nordicstorm9666]

I really hope you didn’t mean to say that Hati and Skoll are children og Freyr??

[@SpaceAnomaly09]

In case anyone was wondering what the world bosses are from in Norse myth. Beyla is the Norse goddess of bees and a servant of Freyr. Sköll and Hati are the sons of Fenrir and grandsons of Loki and are the giant wolves that chase the sun and moon, during Ragnarök Sköll eats Sol and Hati eats Mani. Steinnbjorn is a norse name and Bjorn means bear, cant find a mythological counterpart but may have been thought of because it is said that the Norse gods prefer to take the form of a bear as disguises when visiting Midgard.

Here ya go syn, In Norse Mythology, Sköll and Hati are the sons of Fenrir and grandsons of Loki. Sköll and Hati chase the horse-drawn chariots of Sól and Máni, the personified sun and moon respectively, every day and night until they finally catch them, marking the onset of Ragnarök.

[@masonadams8734]

If I’m correct, with what you assumed to be fenrir’s kids, I think you’re right and apparently in mythology one chases the sun and the other chases the moon, and when then catch them that’s meant to be the true ‘ragnarok’

Hatti and Skoal are the children of Loki who where turned in wolfs by Oden as a punishment to Loki from what I remember but it has changed over the years

[@testerwulf3357]

Like most mythologies, Sköll and Hati really depends on the version. The one I know is that they're sons (or daughter and son) of Fenrir who tried to free their father but failed, Odin sent them into the sky to chase the sun and moon as Sol and Mani had stopped moving locking the earth in either eternal day or night depending on where you were located; however by Odin doing so Sköll and Hati are fated to one day catch the sun and moon devouring them sending the world into eternal darkness and winter and then Ragnarok will begin.

[@NeuralGraph404]

I've watched so many of your ark videos, but never played it personally, I'm so happy when I got Ark for free a couple hours ago, super pumped to okay it for the first time 😅

[@s0515033]

just avoid official servers. I would highly recommend joining a private server or renting your own for a few months. Official is terrible and will sour your experience. This game really shines in unofficial. You can do Single player, but the experience is a lot different from a server. It has spawn issues for loot, creatures, etc. Stuff takes a lot longer because the server is not always running, etc.

[@meeserbaker]

@@s0515033 I hope this person sees ur reply. Cuz ya. My first time playing was with a group of friends on an official PvP server and we just got fuckin nuked after like 1 or maybe 2 weeks after we had finally gotten an industrial forge and gotten everything upgraded to metal. Then I get a txt one day n boom. Everythings gone. There was 1 foundation and 1 wall left lmao. So they all abandoned it. They also didnt help me on how to ACTUALLY play the game really. PvP ark sucks honestly. I started playing solo on my phone/mobile and got really good at it and when lost island released I got ark and all the dlc for super cheap on steam and ya I just played my own world and got max level amd learned stacking mutations on rexes and just had so much fucking fun. Ark is an incredibly fun game. Punishing yes but super fun. I wish official PvP wasnt so unbalanced

Hati and Sköll are the wolves who chase after the sun and moon, can't exactly remember who chased who, but they're supposed to catch them in the battle of Ragnarok and basically shroud the world in darkness with it.

Hati and Sköll (or Skalli/Skoll/Skøll/Skjøll) are children of Fenrir and Gyge (a giant). Sköll is chasing the chariot of the sun goddess Sol. Hati chases the chariot of the moon god Mani. So they are chasing the sun and the moon across the sky and are said to catch them at Ragnarök.

[@mystermysteryy]

Skoll and Hati are the wolves of the sun and moon. Skoll being the sun wolf, hence the yellow sun-spirit esque attack Hati being the moon wolf, hence summoning wolves when it howls

[@duckyyt372]

I did Alpha Fenrirsulfr with a 150 wild lvl cap (official settings i guess) and got a lvl 225 Fenrir with perfect stats (35 points in everything except movement speed and melee, 0 points in movement and 49 points in melee) i guess you get the level you would be able to get when taming a max level creature with maximum taming efficiency, depending on your settings, also you can use mutagen on it as on any other tame (increasing health, stam, weight and melee damage by 5 points) but you cant clone it
