Fish size

Progress scales straight off the size of the fish you drag over, so a larger corpse is worth proportionally more.

How this tame works

  1. There is no cooldown between fish, so this goes as fast as you can catch them and drag them over. The only clock is your own.
  2. Drag the fish corpse up to the Otter rather than putting it in your inventory. It eats what you are carrying.
  3. Each one is worth the same no matter its level. Higher levels simply need more of them.

More about taming the Aberrant Otter

The Aberrant Otter, a tamable, piscivore creature in ARK: Survival Ascended, is well-known across multiple maps. Classified under the Variant group.

Dealing 106% base Melee Damage, the Aberrant Otter brings solid damage output to the table. With 38 base Health, the Aberrant Otter is very frail. With 180 base Stamina, the Aberrant Otter has average stamina. A base Weight of 30 means not built for hauling.

As a tame, the Aberrant Otter is valued for its harvesting efficiency, collecting key resources faster than most tools. Breeding is via live birth rather than eggs, simplifying the process. Killing a wild Aberrant Otter yields 4 base XP. It can be cloned at a Cloning Chamber for 0.84 Element plus 0.01 Element per level.
