Valguero: Alpha Rex Spawn in Beach Zone 1 Starter Zone

[Kultyz]

Greetings,

I think this has to be an error and it's somewhat annoying. The spawn zone called Beach Zone 1 is labeled as "Easy" and supposedly is a starter zone, however in aproximately 32 hours, an Alpha Rex has spawned on this beach, which in my mind makes it not an "Easy" starter zone beach.

Either change the spawn place of the Alpha Rex or Change the label from Easy to something else... (and normal Rexes are spawning in significant numbers as well but they are nothing compared to the trouble an Alpha Rex can give on a starter zone)

If you want "easy" on Valguero start on the small islands. Heck, there isn't even a dodo to attack you there....

They might be there.. god only knows... you cant be able to find anything smaller than a mammoth thru the 10ft high giant bushes.. searching for a dodo among that bugged out brush is like trying to find a needle in a haystack

lol Yes, the bushes are crazy. But you would be able to hear them. Plus I pulled up all of the bushes for berries to eat since there is no meat there and there was nothing hiding under them...

you did realize you're playing ARK: Survival Evolved ?
there is not easy the first ~20 Levels, prepare to die often.

Survival, yes, but why would not be danger for easy zone reasonable? With your logic is perfectly OK if Reaper Kings spawn on all over the map.

I take it you never played scorched earth,,,theisland thecenter etc NONE of their easy zones are easy xD

I understand I feel like the dino placements are weird in this game along with the amount of resources in one area and how theres only a couple type of dinos in certain areas

[Kultyz]

Well it's interesting that people mention Scorched Earth and that no area is easy and all that, but i've played on all maps and maybe i was lucky but this is the first time that in 54 hours since the launch i've had 3 Alpha Rex (lvl 60 85 and 145) 1 Alpha Carno (lvl 95) 1 Alpha Raptor (lvl 130) and one Giga (lvl 50) all around this area and some i've managed to drown others are giving ALOT of work and at least for me it never happened in any other starting zone in any other map.

Probably best tactic is tame 20 dodos and put them on a straight line so they can eat them one at a time and head away from here :)

But as has been pointed out, this is not classed as an "easy" zone. It has no classification at all like it should. If you want easy start on small islands.

Kultyz you are right .
I started at the same zone .
Everything was fine for about 20 mins until the 101st airborne Rex division landed & I
mean LANDED right on around me .About 6 just spawned from the sky & one was an alpha .
Imagine my surprise !
Also about 5 Trikes dropped in too ... all alphas .
I took shelter by running up the hill to a over hanging arch until they went
which they did not , then a Tech Rex came along !
I moved left along the coast until found a large cave and built a small structure outside .
But ... when I fly my mounts near the entrance I get knocked off & cannot re-mount there .
I have the " let mounts fly in caves " check box checked in the options ?
Spawns are fast , frequent & furious .
At my home base about 6 Bronto`s spawned at once , it was like living in a perpetual earthquake zone .
But ... after all that I still have my lil friend Ethel the Dodo , so things cant be
so bad :(

Alpha trikes?

Uh, I'm pretty sure that "alpha trike" had a rivalry buff from the tek rex.:P

This map is definitely pretty rough, even in the 'easy' zones except the beach you don't get anything smaller than a phioma, and those are a pain to catch on foot early on. I ended up hunting low level ankys for food, since they're slow and chase you instead. Started on the small islands.

I've noticed that the white cliffs are crawling with allos, and of its not them its deinonychus. That's a 'medium' place, or at least it was for the mod version. Really doesn't surprise me that rexs are spawning around there.

i dont really think there are easy zones in valguero.. just less brutal ones..

theres some river spawns that arent terribly bad until something nasty falls off the cliffs or walks down out of the hills..

those beaches are much easier to deal with cause theres alot less brush cluttering the beachfront making it easier to see threats from a farther distance.. As well as being populated with dodo's, dillos, paras, trikes and stegos..

Though i did see a pack of 8 hyenas just wrecking the place with a L95 at the head.. They laid waste to everything down there except the bronto. Even cleared out a 135 saber that had fallen down off the cliffs. Finally they went chasing a bird out into the water and started vanishing somehow..

Small islands is probably the safest startup of any ARK map ever created. There is not a single thing in the area that harm you it seems. It is like herbivore island.

I had that happen but the alpha rex got stuck on a rock. After about an hour and 40 wooden spears later, I went from level 7 to level 48. Easiest start ever.
