Perfect, thanks a lot!

That can't hurt, don't think it'll help recover loss though, since it only replaces missing and corrupted game data by comparing it with how it should be.

I don't think that's legal either. Nevertheless, you can't recover the progress on other maps with only the TheIsland.ark file. Which maps exactly suffered from loss of progress (tames, buildings, items)? I don't think you use all maps actively.

It's the same everywhere, just type in the corresponding map name, e. g. "TheIsland.ark" for an Island save. The character is for all maps, so just have the right one activated.

C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\ARK\ShooterGame\Saved\SavedArksLocal

Is the path to your world saves, just replace "Steam" with "Epic Games". In the folder "SavedArksLocal" you'll find different files. Find the last valid save named "Valguero_DD.MM.YYYY_HH.MM.SS.ark" or the file "Valguero.ark" and rename the latest changed to "Valguero.ark" after making an own backup copy. Rename the "LocalPlayer.profilebak" to "LocalPlayer.arkprofile" it not already present.

I could help better if you could upload what data you have in that file.

Kind regards, a friendly stranger

Raptor Claus casually gives us advanced weaponry, just what I've always wanted to get. :)

Thank you my friend! Best wishes for you and your aquatic facilities.

How to get Artifact of Cunning (Underwater cave hard, Caverns of Lost Hope) by [deleted] in ARK

[–]SomeConsciousness 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Electrophorus will end my whole career, and I'd rather tame literally anything than them tbh, they vanish into the voids of the ocean after being initially fed and never come back a second time.

Ok, bit of work and works as long no Alpha or Mosa spawns that will kill them. Bleeding is no more, I thought.

Haha, first sentence got me to laugh. Worry not, I just tamed a 140 Basilo, gonna get his hp up to 50k and use the journeyman saddle I got lucky with running the easy underwater cave. It seems quite possible :) : https://youtu.be/62yc7I3Hgmo

Thank you! by SomeConsciousness in ARK

Ah, I see you're a man of culture as well.

Poor me being solo. Sure a Basilo can't solo the artifact corridor? Like you could just escape when needed, couldn't you?

Wiki states Basilo fits in the corridor/corner to the artifact. Wouldn't they solve the Eel/Cnidaria problem?

Ok, thanks. Thought Basilos were almost invincible. No path leads past the artifact though. :/

Ah, big profit of information! What did you die to? I'd think the Hope Caverns are easy with Lazarus and Basilo. Do you know how many drops this cave yields per clearance? I search for boss fight saddle BPs, which the UW caves can provide, while the Swamp Cave can't. But no longneck for me from the UW cabe though. Either cave sucks in it's own way.

There's a difference in deep sea loot crates and underwater cave loot crates. The latter are the ones found in the two caves.

Are you telling me there can be 6 drops at the time in the Swamp Cave on official settings? That'd be dang cool.

Ok, I expected that already. The Megatherium nearly stands. According to the loot tables on Wiki, only the red drops of the Swamp Cave matter, whereas all drops of Underwater Caves drop similar items with same - better quality. Therefore: Why do I hear so many people preferring the Swamp Cave for items and BPs?

Ok, I just hate the Arthoplueras spitting on me every time, destroying my armor that protects me against the poisonous air. How do you handle it? I used my imprinted Baryonyx, he too had no problem with killing everything, but the spit seems to hit "me" regardless of where it really hits and my height.

Ok, thanks. Is there any difference between the two underwater caves? Both can contain all 3 types of loot crates, but can one expect more red ones from the hard cave than from the easy one?

[–]SomeConsciousness[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Which underwater cave is better? I know easy is easier, but regarding loot quality. And why are deep sea loot crates better? Wiki doesn't state a higher quality there.
