Overseer
In ARK: Survival Ascended, Overseer is an arena-bound boss creature that puts a tribe's tames, gear, and tactics to a serious test. It is an unknown tamed through a special taming method, and brings 10000 base Stamina with exceptional endurance to the table. Overseer cannot be bred and remains a wild-only or single-instance creature for those who tame one. Its high carrying capacity turns base-to-base resource hauls and farming runs into single-trip jobs. Beating it is a milestone unlock, gating tek progression for the tribes that can pull it off.
Overseer does not currently spawn on any ARK: Survival Ascended map, or spawn data is not yet available.
Overseer is not tamable.
