Various quality of life tools combined into one pack to help your Ark experience!

ModId=2571011004

Screenshots are using ascendant tools upgraded using an upgrade station to demonstrate the bonus resources and do not reflect normal usage with a primitive tool.

Currently included:

Spoil and Crafter

A structure that is used to craft the metal tools for the mod as well as being able to craft Cementing Paste for half the cost and at greater speed. Also quickly spoils any meat you place in it, 1 to 1 for Raw Meat types and 1 to 3 for Prime Meat types.

Bonus Hatchet

100% of normal damage (default) and 250% higher harvesting than a normal hatchet. Configurable damage.

Bonus Pick

62.5% lower damage (default) and 250% higher harvesting than a normal pick, has a chance to get various rare resources when hitting metal/rich metal nodes. Currently bonus resources are element shards, element, crystal, and silica pearls with chances ranging from 0.1-5% depending on the general rarity of the resource. Configurable damage.

Bonus Sickle

126% higher damage (default) and 250% higher harvesting than a normal sickle. Behaves like a hatchet when harvesting non-plants. Harvests berries and fiber from plants and has a chance to get various rare resources while gathering from plants. Currently bonus resources are vegetables, angler gel, cementing paste, black pearls, silica pearls, oil, and sap with chances ranging from 1-5% depending on the general rarity of the resource. Configurable damage.

Chetu Bola

A reusable bola that also works on large dinos like a chain bola.

Chetu Tranq Bola

A reusable bola that also works on large dinos like a chain bola and applies initial and torpor over time (configurable amount).

XP and XP Multiplier Elixirs

These have no engram and are currently configured to drop on chance when a vanilla dino lays an egg based on the size of the dino, there are small, medium, large, and max xp elixirs as well as elixir multipliers of 2x, 3x, and 5x. They can also be configured by server owners to use it for events/rewards or add it to supply/dino drop lists. A new JugBug has been added onto existing spawns that can allow (at a very low spawn rate and low regen rate) gathering of these elixirs. Reference the pinned information if you want to disable these on your server.

Ascender

This allows you to ascend your character on any map and at all tiers! Default crafting is the requirements for summoning the boss at the tier you want. For Rockwell Prime (Genesis 2) you will need element (50/100/150 depending on tier) and mutagen (6/12/24 depending on tier). You can also craft the unlock for explorer notes (50 element and 6 notes). Lastly you can craft to add a max level to your Chibi (50 element and 1 Alpha Raptor Claw). Note: The Explorer Notes unlock will not persist through death or server restart currently, any levels gained into the additional levels will remain. This may be a hard limitation due to the unlock requiring all explorer notes and the server data resetting the value since not all notes are truly unlocked and giving notes to a player in bulk can cause crashes.

All craftable items and the Ascender structure are crafted in the Spoil and Crafter structure, bola, tranq bola, and pickup relic can be crafted in the player inventory as well.
