Exo-Mek
Exo-Mek Overview
Exo-Mek is a land-based carnivore in ARK: Survival Ascended, is best used as a pack animal, hauling large amounts of resources between locations. As a carnivore, it responds to a special taming method - and ships with 20000 base Weight, providing excellent carrying capacity. Reproduction is by live birth following gestation; juveniles mature over an extremely long period, one of the longest in the game. Its high carrying capacity turns base-to-base resource hauls and farming runs into single-trip jobs. It earns its place in the stable for survivors looking to graduate from early-game tames.
