    How to beat Alpha Dragon on difficulty 10 with two people?

    Posted: 31 Jul 2019 06:47 AM PDT

    For a while now my gf and I have been playing PvE on our own server(Island). We finally started taking down bosses last weekend but we've hit a wall with the Alpha Dragon. Beta was extremely close. We've tried 17 Therinoz with 20 Veggie Cakes each, 2 Daeodon and a Yuty, all imprinted with great saddles. Alpha Dragon just destroys us, we can't even get it half before the Therinoz are dead. We tried rex's, that was much worse, tried the Deer method and couldn't output enough damage. Is there anything else left to try?

    Ignore group whistles setting issue

    Posted: 31 Jul 2019 06:21 AM PDT

    So I'm having an issue exclusively on Valguero where I will set specific Dino's to ignore group whistles before I head into a boss fight, and they are getting reset before going into the fight.

    I set it while the Dino's were sitting at the terminal, de-rendered (though tribemates were still rendering) and came back to them being reset to heed group whistles.

    My rhinos and deinonychus got reset, but my bear did not.

    All were unridden, out of cryo the whole time.

    Any ideas on what may be causing this?

    Note: Worth noting that I had my tribemates check, and the Dino's got reset for them as well, so it was not a visual glitch on my end.

    We've found something more in the mysterious post!

    Posted: 30 Jul 2019 04:09 PM PDT

    So this post silently went up on the forums.https://survivetheark.com/index.php?/forums/topic/455283-communications-test-record-427a6f2b/

    The message is pinned which means someone at WC pinned it. It's significant somehow.

    In the text we spotted the words "OUT" & "GUESS", which with a google search brought up a tool for steganography.

    We messed around with downloads for a while and landed on the (specifically) 32-bit installation of cygwin (64-bit and outguess won't work. When you get to the package install list search for outguess and set it to 0.2-1)it's a linux only tool (what the crap WC) but luckily cygwin makes it accessable to windows users.

    We messed around with passwords for it and noticed that the "AP" part of the image was slightly off-color. so we tried "AratPrime" and derivations of it, but the use of "AP" as the key returned this:

    -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA256 [LOG_TRANSMIT] Start sublayer encrypted communications test. [LOG_TRANSMIT] Verify receipt. [LOG_TRANSMIT] Confirm full fingerprint ID of 724EA9458ED40FBF in user profile. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2 iQIcBAEBCAAGBQJdPUtAAAoJEHJOqUWO1A+/gJQP/0t6bbn7ECOybQn2YWO7TVVN gfcgSQvfBp+Zxp+efdwQe9mK6MHalrFQIbpazdJYA6vnDx99Il86WvVbjOoQZxEw DdVfesW4fboqqX0rMB+zUo+aIll4ekfCHcEyC2/YCAaYP/5cjFmFa7hx/VsBwrNs DxRrg9vjTkiC6LcW3sCuP1YX5jKQXQLa4i2nmDCzx101F7GdGZ8jFHWvsrPx98rk isGrEzBk42ygN75/YFjnKq+q5D4L4AEkf9s6MRTR/0NTJ8QREOoWroAsvo+J+JsK Ta9gb1hRbeT2MRr47OoG7rB9yfV1DDPsu1Hj8CrFYti4Yl+qIxSXF3Reiob+nzwD 2zo5VT/QAwN8yMtcRJrgWsb2BtPDV/QaRq8K7YjVIQ3VXw8/4f88u2OxbmDXLr6H jjKNx4f6aUUra8xMFi7btWrQCDf0QcuFklJsFMiAOgmEZOSo5dDVy2ah8nA5mWma ftfpbj956KRchJ3gOnX4M2IPp4c3Y0as4c9q4jVtFBxsgisCaEphn71AOK3QnUKE b57N21fvKbzkFofmnMLzdtEMAKvW+iD/bDGxxMmruIl2DWXQqsltp13A2VowFrhe cAZW/c+9HlSRsBHJYJJx5ejkSGDAs0FS2pa/8P40YkD/ZYSmaQTCEG+cPxwFuFd+ wuyYJHzkM05VFgWwDIHq =2DQu -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----

    I'm not sure what it means or if there is more to this, but there is definitely something kooky going on with this post.

    Again if anybody wants to confirm the results or see if there's more:

    1. Download the image from the post (Might have to click through it to get the full size version).
    2. Install the 32-bit version of cygwin : https://cygwin.com/setup-x86.exe
    3. During installation you will hit a package install menu (Looks like a big spreadsheet) in the search field type "outguess" and then expand the little plus symbols to find it in the list. set the dropdown to 0.2-1, and then finish installation.
    4. Navigate to the directory where you installed cygwin and launch the Cygwin.bat file (this basically gives us a linux emulator)
    5. In the prompt, use the command:

    ​

    outguess -k "AP" -r "<full>/<path>/<to>/427A6F2B.jpg" "<path>/<to>/<location>/<for>/output.txt"

    If you find anything else or know if there is something we are suppose to do with this please share.

    UPDATE:

    Thanks to /u/alex32434 & /u/beertini (especially for the explanation ) This went further.

    Using something called gpg they found a public key belonging to Helena, Warrior7 (on the STA forums) found a field in the user profile menu on STA (under "edit profile") to put the fingerprint of the public key.

    Then all of the non-custom avatars on the whole site changed and a new coded file was uploaded by the original account.

    arkark on the forums posted the output of the file:

    [LOG_TRANSMIT] Start sublayer encrypted communications test. [LOG_TRANSMIT] Verify receipt. [LOG_TRANSMIT] Confirm full fingerprint ID of 724EA9458ED40FBF in user profile.

Primary key fingerprint: C3FB C832 2297 5EF0 27C2 46D7 724E A945 8ED4 0FBF

    See? I wasn't crazy after all! :D

    Ark Bridges seem broken.

    Posted: 31 Jul 2019 09:18 AM PDT

    Has anyone else noticed that when placing a Tek Bridge if the underlying structure it was placed on is removed the bridge remains? You can also place additional bridges across the span of the first bridge. This process can be repeated indefinitely. Is this a bug? Feature?

    Fastest way step by step to breed epic dinosaurs in Unofficial S+?

    Posted: 31 Jul 2019 09:17 AM PDT

    I'm new to breeding and mutations after playing north of 5k hours in ARK. Don't laugh. It wasn't something you really worried about too much when you're forever alone in Hardcore PvP Official.

    My main question is what is the best and fastest way to get epic dinosaurs bred via mutations? Also, how can I tell what the specific mutations are when they occur? The Ancestry UI doesn't tell me much.

    Valguero Spider Cave best tames

    Posted: 31 Jul 2019 08:17 AM PDT

    Been starting to build up a lot more on our unofficial server. We can take fliers into caves so would a Ptera be best? What would be the best land tame to run through with ?
