Lost Malwyn Overview

In ARK: Survival Ascended, Lost Malwyn occupies the wild niche - roams the ARK as a wild, untamable creature. Untamable in the traditional sense, Lost Malwyn fields 425 base Weight, providing a solid weight pool when survivors meet it in the wild. Reproduction is by live birth following gestation; juveniles mature requiring significant patience. Once tamed it harvests Hide, Raw Meat, Pelt more efficiently than most player tools. Treat encounters with situational awareness rather than taming intent.
