So in simplified terms you still want to start with a clean father and mother with identical stats to increase the likelihood of rolling the mutation stat. Then you keep the females and only use a mutated male in the stat you want. Just like in ASE. The difference is if you find a better wild stat after you started your Mutation line you can add it in without having to start all over.
Not confusing at all. I was big into breeding on ase and this is a total game changer. Can breed low level dinos day one building clean lines. Until able to tame some higher levels and breed them in.
8:00 just to add some confusion, you always get a colour mut when u get a stat mut, yes. But for some tames u wont see it. An equus for example, you will always have a colour mut as it has all 6 colour regions, but a giga only has 3 out of 6 colour regions so you wont always see a colour mut even though you technically got one.
It feels like a war crime that you only get the Tek Binoculars after you've already completed the hardest challenge on the map
Honestly it really isn't changed all that much they just added a mutation number slot separate from the base tamed Stat. Just keeps things super organized.
5 seconds in and I’m crying… you glued those character creation sliders to the right of your screen
This video can be summed up to, mate your creatures and toss any that dont have the stats you want. Found a wild dino that has the stats you want? Add it to the breading line. Rinse and repeat until you max it out.
hope you get to 100k man youve been killing it with the new asa content!
Unfortunately you can't see anything on official servers. The binoculars are only available from overseer alpha onwards! We need a way to see the stats sooner! This is a huge problem in Ark!!! We need the ability to see the stats to get to the final boss, not to get it from the final boss. This is totally stupid. You should always see dinos stats without any tools. This is the main gameplay mechanic of Ark and should always be visible!
They made this extremely convient!!! OMG that's insane!! So if i accidentally get a mutation on lets say early game rexs that i decided to breed just to have an early fully imprinted rex, and that mutation is lets say melee. I just save that guy for my late game boss rexs and breed the mutation from early game rexs into the late game rexs. It doesnt matter if early game rexs have lower melee the mutation it will still affect late game rexs higher melee. If im understanding that correctly this changes the game completely!!!! OMG!!!!!
I think this was more of a guide on breeding in general then a guide on whats new in ASA. The only pertinent new information was about 5 seconds of info at 36:38 sadly there was not much anything new in this video regarding breeding in ASA vs. ASE... Fast Forward to 23:48 for the only difference... which.. if you want the TLDR version of it then fast forward to 36:38 Basically.. you can add bred stat mutations onto any dino at any time.. so if you tame a dino with higher level base stats then your breeding dinos.. you can breed with the new dino to add those base stats into the lineage and the mutation stats will stack onto the new base stats.
This makes upper end breeding easier. After you get 20 into health and 20 into melee combine them onto a male and continue breeding with an army of clean females. Even though the paternal side will say 40/20 mutations if the females are clean you can still pick up mutations from the mothers side it’s just much lower odds of picking up a mutation and it being in the stat you want. But having the go and melee mutation counter on one Dino makes getting a favorable mutation twice as likely. The mutation counter is all that really matters. You can put the mutation counter onto your good base stat later.
Yeah definetly nice start of how mutations in ark work thanks man
Liked and subbed the second i heard you say how into detail the rest of the video would be
well teachers... i see you have exquisite taste in character body proportions. cheers sir.
Love your helpful videos champion keep them coming
So you need to get 20 mutations from both sides in your chosen stat to make it 40 in total put those 40 into a male and then breed that with fresh females to reset the the line to then get 60 mutations into a male again to then breed with fresh females to then be able to get 80 and reapeat that over and over? Is that right?
cograts on making it to 90k your almost there
The biggest thing I learned here, as a fairly experienced Ark player, is that the Stat and the Mutation can roll separately, even on the same statistic (which led to that surprise level 1 offspring). Had no idea that's how it worked, thanks Teach!
