Taming a GIGA in ARK's HARDEST Difficulty...

I lowered the rates in ARK so much, to the point that simple tasks such as crafting a saddle/taming a dino or building a smithy takes you hours of grinding.
This is the final episode of this series where I tame a Giga, a Carcha...and lose my sanity :)

part 4 at 2b likes edit: I initially said that this challenge would have 4 parts but scrapped that idea, because doing anything past this point is exactly the same as any other ark playthrough(I can easily farm and get everything with the dinos that I have)..soo no boss :/

im glad theres an ark youtuber that still plays the original ark

Asa should have been an update but nah they got too greedy and messed up

[@baronwuztaken]

@@thunderred5263 i wouldnt really say too greedy.. the paid dinos thingy is fucked up but the fact that scorched and center is free is pretty cool and if they keep this up it's definitely not greed

12:56 onwards through the carcha tame was waaaaaaaay too funny 😂😂😂😂

[@theconehater]

masterful video son. while the challenge is considered a failure, some must simply be left to the true masochists. perhaps for your next challenge, a new game or an unexpected spin on your goals in ARK. I was creating a dodo-only playthrough myself, however i soon found myself simply not enjoying the grinding aspect of the game, and leveling up each dodo individually is also tedious. i had never really enjoyed ARK personally, taming dinos was really its only alluring factor to me and unfortunately it was not enough for me to sustain a challenge, especially with how much grind is required to progress and the reliance on fast/flying dinos to traverse the map in a timely fashion. not having the latter caused the already tedious search for resources all the more tedious, as you now must walk all the way back to your death point. if only you could ride a dodo...

[@baronwuztaken]

add a mod and you can ride dodos, ty for the video idea ❤️(ps. Thank u father BUT the challenge is deemed a failure because I wanna do things irl aswell.. not farm 4000 metal for a saddle.. plus a few k more for cannons and cannonballs)

honestly, seeing how far you got with this, i'm surprised you didn't quit sooner lmao. i could never play with such low rates

It was definitely interesting however, as I've said, doing everything that's left is just a time sink rather than a challenge :/

Tips for tameing a carchar: use the midwhipe to get more points in weight then bread rexes to get babies and feed the babeis to the carchar

[@baronwuztaken]

mindwipe is hella expensive on these rates, hence why I didn't craft it, also the tip with the baby rexes is good so thank you for that however the carcha didnt want to eat like.. anything 🤣

[@ofatinyratt]

@@baronwuztakenthat’s because you trapped it their ai does not like traps it’s much easier without one

[@baronwuztaken]

@@ofatinyratt i saw that, they just dont wanna eat, especially if u trap them in the conventional giga/rex trap, that's why I "designed" that slightly bigger trap with the behemoth gate, which did work in the past just not.. this time 😡, anyway I'll make sure to try taming one without a trap next time

Respect for calling this challenge what it is: tedium. Most other challenge runners would have just trudged through it even if it was making them miserable.

yup, like.. it was interesting at the start, but it does fall into tediousness HARD when u get farming dinos, because instead of farming 1h for an indi forge u farm 10

[@p1nky331]

the reason you didnt get anything when u killed the alpha raptor with the wyvern is because you used the breath to kill it which means it was still in the raptors body when it died but if u bite it to death it would go straight to ur wyv
