Ark PvP Server

[Epimetheus]

Greetings Survivors!

With the recent inactivity on the Ark servers i decided to reintroduce PvP to our Community!

I tried to balance the PvP as much as possible, with broken aspects of the game / S+ mod removed or rebalanced the PvP should be fresh and exciting! The Cluster will exist of 3 maps:

Ragnarok
Abberation
Extinction

Why only these 3 maps?
The new Genesis maps are gamebreaking in PvP, introducing many mechanics that are either unfair or straight game breaking. With Ragnarok everybody gets the best of the classic Ark experience, while Abberation and Extinction add new flavor and excitement.

Server Rates:
XP 4x
Harvest 4x
Taming 3x
Egg Hatch Speed 5x
Maturation Rate 4x
Baby Food Consumption Speed 1,5x
Crop Growth Rate 5X
Crate Loot Quality 2x
Fishing Loot Quality 1,5

Mods:
Structure Plus
Stacking Mod

Removed Content:
Titan´s can not be transfered
Many S+ Structures that are overpowered / have gamebreaking possibilitys are removed, like Item Collector, S+ Force Field, S+ Hatchery or Nanny.

Features:
Max Players in tribe is limited to 4.
Alliances are limited to 3, with 3 tribe per alliance.
Gamma is enabled.
Tek Turrets are auto unlocked since Broodmother doesn´t exist on these maps.

Rules:
- Don´t insult other people
- Don´t use exploits or Bugs, if you find any message me on the forum. If there is concern for exploit abuse the server might get rolled back, except there is enough proof submitted.
- Do not use Titans for Raids. You can use them for open world PvP or PvE like Supply Drops, Element Veins or the King Titan, but using them to soak turrets or damaging Bases (not FOB´s) is forbidden.
- Don´t raid the same person / tribe repeatedly in a short time widow only to keep them down. Dont wipe them, if you dont want to have the base spot yourself. We want players to have a chance to come back.
- griefing is in small scale allowed, like sniping some (under 10) tames, but not keep players from playing (for example caging them and keeping them alive).

Not following the rules can result in a ban, depending on the size of the offense.

Servers:
Ragnarok https://www.battlemetrics.com/servers/ark/12936791

In case of questions or need of mod assistance please create a new thread in the Ark forum or post under this one.

Update: Since it looks like the rules weren´t clearly whats allowed and whats not im updating the rules. New / changed rules are in a different colour.

Yes!!! Happy about that will join today to remove the genesis ones was a good idea. We should promote the servers on forums etc.

What about building in artifact caves, is that allowed? Maybe put artifacts in white drops or something and allow artifact cave building idk.

[Epimetheus]

Building in Caves is allowed, with 6x vanilla dmg and no threat from titan i wouldnt recommend it though. Exspecially since everyone who builds in a cave will be a prime target to get trough to the artifact.

There wont be costum supply drops, if you want to build in a artifact cave you will have to defend a lot.

I already promoted on reddit, but feel free to recommend it to other players /friends you know. Aslong as you follow the rules everybody is welcome!

What do you think of this mod for solo players? https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfil...text=auto+farm

[Epimetheus]

With the current rates you can farm a lot of resources solo if you know how to do it. I would have to tune down the gathering rate a lot for it not to be broken.
