More about taming the VR Ravager
The results below show total taming time, effectiveness, and bonus levels for the VR Ravager at your selected level and food. Higher-quality foods yield more bonus levels.
Below is a breakdown of knockout weapon requirements for the VR Ravager across various creature levels. Space your shots to let torpor accumulate - rapid firing risks killing it before knockout.
To simplify the knockout, immobilize the VR Ravager first with Bola or Bear Trap. A Argentavis can also pick it up and drop it into a taming pen for a controlled knockout.
Below are the narcotic requirements for keeping the VR Ravager sedated throughout taming. Bio Toxin is twice as potent as Narcotics (80 vs 40 Torpor per use), while Narcoberries work in a pinch at just 7.5 Torpor each. With Torpor draining at 0.3/s, don't wait until the bar is nearly empty to apply narcotics.
The real-time timers below help you monitor Torpor drain and Food depletion during the tame. Starve taming is recommended for valuable high-level VR Ravager: let the Food stat deplete first, then add food. This way nothing is wasted if something goes wrong.
The VR Ravager is a tamable, carnivore creature in ARK: Survival Ascended. Classified under the Variant group.
Starting at 400 Health, it's decently sturdy. Melee starts at 100% - respectable melee power that scales with level-ups. With 350 base Stamina, the VR Ravager has solid stamina reserves. A base Weight of 500 means massive inventory space.
The VR Ravager is a knockout tame: apply enough torpor to knock it out, then place food in its inventory. Feed it Raw Mutton for the fastest tame and highest effectiveness bonus.
Once tamed, the VR Ravager fills a general-purpose role, adaptable to whatever your tribe currently needs. It gives live birth after a gestation period, making breeding straightforward. Killing a wild VR Ravager yields 6 base XP. It can be cloned at a Cloning Chamber for 0.25 Element plus 0.01 Element per level.
