Ask about ARK, or get a hand with your tools.

Arkbuddy-Chan

What do you want to know?

Ask her any ARK question, from taming and breeding to boss fights and building. She can also edit your lists, change colors, and work the tools on this site.

A few things to try

  • “What should I bring to tame a Rex?”
  • “Add 20 stone foundations to my crafting list.”
  • “Mark every creature starting with A as tamed.”

Choose Ask Arkbuddy-Chan in the sidebar or mobile bottom bar. Type your request, or tap her microphone to talk.

Simple changes happen right away. Saved-creature and custom-recipe batches show a preview for you to approve.
