No knockoutHow this tame works
- A ride lasts somewhere between 7s and 46s. It rolls a fresh number every time it throws you, so plan for the short end rather than the long one.
- The food table below does not know about the 125% penalty, so its counts come out lower than the real ones. Use the figure above.
- Feed it once, get on, and feed again every time it prompts you. Each successful feed is worth 125% of what that food is normally worth, so pick the best thing in the table below.
- Being thrown off costs 25% of the progress you have built up, so keep feeding on the prompt rather than trying to hang on through one.
- Wild level150
- Tamed level224+74
- Max level after leveling297

ARK: Survival Ascended features the Unicorn as a tamable, herbivore creature that survivors will encounter in the wild. It falls within the Variant classification.
Its base Melee Damage sits at 100%, giving it respectable melee power. At 240 base HP, the Unicorn is relatively fragile. Its base Stamina of 560 gives it respectable staying power. Weight capacity starts at 350, giving it generous inventory space.
Once tamed, the Unicorn earns its keep through resource gathering, making tedious farming runs much faster. It gives live birth after a gestation period, making breeding straightforward. Killing a wild Unicorn yields 1 base XP. It can be cloned at a Cloning Chamber for 0.44 Element plus 0.01 Element per level.
