About This Calculator
All damage values, structure health, tier adjusters, and damage type inheritance chains in this calculator are data-mined and verified against the live game. Nothing is manually entered or copied from other sources.
ARK's structure damage system works through a multiplicative adjuster formula. Each structure tier (Thatch, Wood, Stone, Metal, Tek) has its own set of damage type adjusters. When a weapon or dino attacks a structure, the game checks every adjuster entry against the incoming damage type's inheritance chain. All matching multipliers are multiplied together to produce the final damage value.
Displayed damage values assume official PvP server rates (1x damage multiplier). On unofficial servers with modified damage settings, multiply the shown values by your server's structure damage multiplier. Dino damage shown is the base attack value before melee damage percentage scaling. Actual damage goes up with the dino's melee stat.

Damage values at official 1x rates. C4 includes radial falloff. Dino damage uses base attack values before melee scaling.
Dinos That Can Damage Stone or Higher
Most tamed dinos can only scratch Thatch and Wood. The creatures below have at least one attack that breaks a tougher tier. Handy for offline raiding when you don't want to spend resources on explosives. Tier eligibility comes straight from each species' attack damage type chains, so a dino listed here might still whiff with its basic bite and only connect via a charged or special move.
Damages Tek (and everything below)
6 dinossaurosThese creatures have at least one attack that breaks Tek. Their other attacks may still cap out at Wood or Stone, so the specific move matters (e.g. Magmasaur fireball, Voidwyrm tek beam, Arthropluera acid spit, Dreadnoughtus vomit cannon). Pick the calculator above for per-attack damage.
Damages Stone (max tier)
23 dinossaurosMid-tier raid creatures. At least one of their attacks breaks Stone, but none can dent Metal or Tek. Bring explosives for those higher tiers.
Tier eligibility is the union over every attack a species has. Use the calculator above to see which specific attack delivers the damage against your chosen structure, since basic melee often lands in a lower tier than the flashy ability.

C4Frequently Asked Questions
Qual é a forma mais barata de atacar uma base de metal em ARK?
C4 e lançadores de foguetes são os mais rentáveis para quebrar paredes de metal em PvP. Use a calculadora acima para comparar o custo exato de recurso por parede dependendo do seu nível de estrutura.
Quanto dano faz uma torreia em ARK?
As torres automáticas lidam um dano fixo por tiro escalado por qualidade. As torres automáticas pesadas lidam muito mais dano e são necessárias para ameaçar jogadores armados com armadura de estilhaços ou grandes domesticações.
Qual é a arma mais forte em ARK?
O Rifle Tek e o Arco Tek têm o dano base mais elevado entre armas portáteis, mas consomem elemento. O arco composto com setas de metal oferece o melhor dano por recurso para combate sustentado.
Como funciona o dano de corpo a corpo em ARK?
O dano de corpo a corpo é um multiplicador aplicado em cima do dano base de uma criatura ou arma. Corpo a Corpo mais elevado = mais dano por hit, escalando linearmente com a percentagem mostrada no ecrã de estatísticas.
