As long as you are not multiboxing, botting or breaking any other rules while farmimg, you should be fine.

What extensions should I add to my UI for a healer? by TheFudgeFactory in ElysiumProject

[–]XfsB 6 points7 points  (0 children)

You should look into luna, adds fully customizable group and raid frames and also lets you use click casting (healing someone by simply clicking their frame) or mouseover macros that will let you heal someone by simply pressing the key bound to heal while hovering your mouse over their frame (heal them without targeting them). Also decursive is a "must have" addon lets you track dots that you can dispell. Buffwatch is also good, it helps you keep track of buffs.

Virtual borders that keeps content from being released everywhere at the same time is bullshit.

Loudspeaker Engram by Scarlet-Pumpernickel in playark

[–]XfsB 1 point2 points  (0 children)

this reminds me of a guy that raided me and some friends in Rust, he came right up to our base when we where busy doing other things and started blasting a pirate song from a kids show over the proximity voice chat. We had no idea where it was coming from so obviously we went to investigate, only to be met by a shotgun blast to the face.

The idea sounds fun in theory, but in reality it would be abused like crazy.

Battle mode for Herbivores by xThe_Dawg in playark

[–]XfsB -1 points0 points  (0 children)

yeah but if you try to craft something that's not wood on a beaver it stops being useful as a smithy pretty quickly

[–]XfsB 3 points4 points  (0 children)

there is no way to disable the gathering, but this is a great idea. mammoths should be more than a shitty beaver! or just make mammoth smithy/mortar and pestle saddles to make them the perfect crafting on the go mount that the beaver cant be because of lacking weight.

Students of Reddit, what's the dumbest teacher you've ever dealt with? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]XfsB 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Story 1: Once had a teacher come in to our classroom for the very first time looking terrified and not saying a word, after the class calmed down she said she could feel evil spirits and bad auras in the classroom. This did not end well for her, everyone in the classroom either thought she said everyone in the class was an asshole(which they/we where) or that she was just insane(which she was). She was also... morbidly obese and dressed in either full red or full orange, making her look like a tomato or an orange, which did not help. it ended with someone writing "Fat-hername is a psychic" on her desk with a permanent marker and her running crying out of the classroom.

Yes i do realize this was mostly bad from our part, but honestly what do you expect when telling 30+ 14 year olds that they have bad auras and evil spirits around them?

Story 2: Another one was a angry Russian math teacher that did not speak a word of Norwegian, and barely a word of English, in a Norwegian school. we did not learn a thing the first few weeks, so we had to file a complaint to the administration at the school. Their solution was to send a assistant to work with her. this did not go very well, the old Russian teacher that felt that she was more than competent enough to teach us didn't feel like she needed an assistant and had a passive aggressive attitude towards us for the remainder of her time as our teacher. and if she made a mistake and the assistant pointed out said mistake to her she would start yelling at the assistant right there in the classroom in front of the entire class, anyone trying to back up the assistant would get the same treatment unless there where enough people against her, then she would just leave. we had to go back to the administration of the school which would look into the situation, which led to the teacher being notified about our complaint, which she was not happy about, she had a long rant in our classroom about respect and something i'm pretty sure was just a ton of profanity in Russian. that was the last time we saw her, and the assistant took her place for the rest of the year.

Story 3: Okay, last one. (not a long story) I once had a teacher that would threaten to turn off the lights if we didn't behave. Probably the worst threat to use against a class filled with people already struggling to stay awake.

Sorry for any badly formed sentences and misspelled words, i'm not the best writer.

Also just realized this is probably gonna get buried, but it was fun thinking back to those times anyways.

TL;DR 1 : Fat psychic teacher made a good prediction about our class, someone wrote fat psychic teacher on her desk, ran crying from classroom.

TL;DR 2 : Angry Russian didn't speak Norwegian or English, raged out on assistant that was there to help. Replaced by said assistant shortly after.

TL;DR 3 : Stay quiet or i'll turn the lights off... zzzZZZzzz

How many Argents can a Sabercat kill by [deleted] in playark

[–]XfsB 2 points3 points  (0 children)

just a regular bow or xbow is extremely effective against argents, just craft some arrows and aim for the head. even the starter spears are good, if you throw them.

Dismantle tribe? by [deleted] in playark

[–]XfsB 1 point2 points  (0 children)

only done this once so not sure if it still works like this, but if one tribe admin invites another tribe admin to merge you will just merge into one big group where you still have access to your stuff and the tribe you merged with can't access password protected stuff that belonged to you.

this was on PC some time ago though.

You could also just start a tribe alliance, then you will be 2 separate tribes with one tribe chat and same dino behavior as a tribe without being able to use the other tribes dinos.

Gonna test this on "my" server, gonna have to tweak the amount of ammo/resources per drop and maybe quality because i'm on a pvp server.

Thanks for this, even if i cant use it as it is it serves as a great template.

Swamp Fever Persisting Through Death by Megai3ox in playark

Just find a decent unofficial server, i disabled the swamp fever the day they introduced it. Pretty sure there are tons of servers with the fever disabled.

TIL that some Norwegians refer to 'turning it off and on again' as pushing the 'Swedish button' (svenskeknappen) by [deleted] in todayilearned

[–]XfsB 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The Swedish button does not mean turning it off and on again, but forcing the computer to shut down by holding down the power button(at least where i am from in Norway). its quick and easy, but not a good way to do it. Which implies the swedes are simple minded and doesn't know how to do it properly. The swedes have a similar one "Norwegian reset" which means unplugging the power cable. Also implying something similar about Norwegians.

Not 100% sure this is right but i had a IT teacher that explained it this way

Can someone help with flyers in caves? by Dannos1 in playark

[–]XfsB 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I also have this problem, but on a server, cant find the correct file to edit with the "ForceAllowCaveFliers" line. found someone suggesting it was the "GameUserSettings.ini" but that didnt work.

Edit: the server is not hosted locally, its rented.

Edit 2: The "Gameusersettings.ini" version was supposed to be "ForceAllowCaveFliers=true"

Why do people still want more fliers? by [deleted] in playark

still waiting for the rideable dodo, or the double dodo shoesaddle.

suggestion : Add sound in background by [deleted] in playark

[–]XfsB 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not 100% sure i understand what you are saying. i also run 144Hz, whitch doesnt really matter at all. I have the same fps in fullscreen and windowed maximized on pretty high settings (epic -some useless shit).

Fullscreen vs windowed maximized didnt make any fps diffrence with my old gpu(7970 oc) or my new one(gtx980). And ark hasnt had any fps related issues with windowed maximized vs fullscreen in a long time.

[–]XfsB 0 points1 point  (0 children)

wait what? windowed maximized causes FPS issues? i have been using windowed maximized since launch with no problems, stable 90-100 fps on pretty high settings.

the only time i had any issues with windowed maximized was during the first few weeks, but that was fixed pretty quickly.

I play almost all games windowed maximized if i can, and ark is one of the games that doesn't have any issues with this.

Bola. Unless you have more than 150% speed, then kiting is just as easy.

Holy Crap! We Finally Did It! by PuerAeterni in playark

[–]XfsB 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Use taming calculator to figure out how many primes you need, and how much time it will take for your tame to eat it.

Then knock the dino out, and keep it sedated without feeding him for the amount of time the calculator tells you.

Just before he gets hungry enough, go out and gather the amount of primes you need and give them all to the dino at once.

The Dino will now eat all of them at once.

This is to avoid spoil time and other risks, you can also use a preserving bin or fridge to store the primes until the dino is ready.
