254 is a major content patch and brings “Tek Tier” and numerous other features into the game.
TEK Tier is an endgame technology in the crafting system. With 254 comes the first wave of this technology. Additional elements are to follow. Players earn TEK Tier by defeating bosses and collecting their elements. It is also possible to equip TEK saddles on the most popular dinos. Even on a T-Rex.
Furthermore, the ability to change hairstyles in ARK Survival Evolved will be available today. You can dye your hair, grow hair and a beard. This hairy matter is also set to be expanded over time.
The sheep, Ovis Aries, is also coming to ARK. This was created as part of a Steam challenge. Players will be able to shear sheep. You can also ride on the sheep. That’s suitable for mountainous terrain.
What the new dinosaurs can do – Purlovia, Blasilosaurus and Baryonyx
Three additional dinosaurs are coming with the Basilosaurus, Baryonyx, and Purlovia.
The Basilosaurus Solatiumfect is a marine creature. As a powerful swimmer, it thrives in shallow waters. It possesses remarkable self-healing abilities. Other predators typically follow the Basilosaurus since it leaves behind usable remains after digestion. Survivors harvest the Basilosaurus for oil.
Purlovia Maxima is a carnivore that relies on the element of surprise. As a patient hunter, it is employed by tribes to prepare ambushes or protect a village. A pack of tamed Purlovia can serve as a sort of minefield of claws and fangs.
Baryonyx Aquafugur is one of the smaller large predators. It is a fast swimmer, quick enough to pose a threat on land as well. For survivors seeking to travel both in water and on land, it serves as the ideal mount for anyone preferring speed and agility over sheer strength. After consuming fresh fish, the Baryonyx can regenerate remarkably quickly.
Along with the other dinos, the Dino-Jousting makes its way to Ark. The lance serves as a new item.
