Combining our breeding efforts

Greetings! We've seen an influx of players online recently, and many of us have been talking about cross-breeding our various dinos to share our strengths with each other. If this is something that interests you, I've put together a public spreadsheet to share the stats on our strongest dinos all in one place. This should hopefully spare us the trouble of flying all over the island to examine dozens of each other's dinos to compare our strengths and weaknesses.

To use this spreadsheet you'll need to have installed the app "Ark Smart Breeding" (free, lightweight). Using this app it's a lot easier to to see the stats of a dino, as it extracts how many levels/points are assigned to that dino (Example, instead of Health reading as "2465" it will just show "30 points").

The video below (6 min) shows how to get the app and it's basic operation.


If you'd like to participate, just add your stats to this sheet and contact people you'd like to coordinate with. Let me know if you have any questions or suggestions!

Species Currently Listed:
  • Argentavis
  • Baryonyx
  • Castoroides
  • Daeodon
  • Direwolf
  • Doedicurus
  • Gigantosaurus
  • Megatherium
  • Rex
  • Sabertooth
  • Spino
  • Yuti

Yuti's added to species list.


I'm also looking to improve my Rex's specifically, if anyone has those and is willing to add their info.

Will try to input my critters stats, if I can get the app running properly.

I play via NVIDIA GeForce Now so I won't be able to use that app to extract my stats unfortunately.

I'm not sure I follow- Geforce is the screen capturing app right? I also use that, but I don't see how that impedes using other applications?

Not that I'm insisting you use it, it's completely voluntary =P


And on a seperate note, I just perfected my Argy base parents, if anyone would like my spares let me know. I still need to reproduce more females so I can start increasing the odds of acquiring mutations, but any males I hatch I can unclaim and gift to anyone that would like to incorporate them into your own family. I was able to successfully lower their oxygen and speed stats (unused stats for argys) to 0, so I should be able to mutate this bloodline 83 until they reach maximum level.

GeForce NOW is a cloud gaming/streaming service: https://www.nvidia.com/en-us/geforce-now/

I don't even have a Windows computer at home anymore, but using this lets me use my Mac to play Windows-only games like Ark. It's pretty cool for $6 per month.
