Because the other sliders can be increased or decreased to alter difficulty as well.
What is ARK: Survival Evolved? When I started single player long ago as a newbie and had no clue. Bonjour!!!! Be aware that any changes to the setup sliders when starting the server will change the ini files, though Ark should only change the settings actually changed, leaving the rest of the settings alone. When you use "Singleplayer settings" it will automatically use the following rates: DifficultyOffset=0.200000 XPMultiplier=2.000000 TamingSpeedMultiplier=2.50000 ServerCrosshair=True ShowMapPlayerLocation=True EnablePvPGamma=True AllowFlyerCarryPvE=True … He has settings videos. If you never went creative mode (for unlimited weight) and used fly command on your Anky to farm, you're missing out. You're browsing the GameFAQs Message Boards as a guest. bAutoUnlockAllEngrams=true ALL RIGHTS RESERVED. Of course, you don't have to have these settin… Both loot and wild dino levels are calculated by two variables: Difficulty Offset and Override Official Difficulty(OOD). Sometimes, I .5 my xp and harvest settings and make it so I can't go above stone tier. Because once I spawned stuffs/dinoes/etc I won't be able to stop because why not. Oh and also backuping savegame before doing anything dangerous in case i failed lol, My Ark playtime is 3200 hours, but I never reach endgame playing both SP and MP, I just build and tame then leave them to expire after I'm bored, same with SP, play new DLC, like Abe, I only played to survive, build a base, checking new stuffs, tame Rock Drake and Reaper then call it quit. Not trying to steal the TC's topic but is it possible to change the settings on single player to level up a character easier then eventually be able to move that character to a public server? Breeding shorter interval between breeding again. Also if using gathering multiplier too high, I can even farm stones/woods/thatches with probably only lv 5, using too high taming also will make kibbles useless because low grade food will have high efficiency. A value of 0.5 results in a player taking half damage while a value of 2.0 would result in taking double normal damage. Since I used cheat the other day I don't feel the same playing it, I lose control on what to cheat and what to not cheat. And dino stats is also higher, this is what really bugs me, I figure it's for scaling with the boss.
this also makes it viable to fight bosses with other dinos/animals than rexes. Bosses are nerfed to about 33% power (I don't have the energy to raise 20 super rexes xD).
