Preserving Salts in Fridge
Put Preserving Salts in Fridge and be pleasantly surprised. Not only do the preserving salts last much much much longer, they pretty much double the spoil timer on S+, Ragnarok, unofficial on PC. I have wyvern milk that will last 4 days with salts in fridge instead of 2 days in the fridge without it!

That is interesting if true.

Lots of new people just started playing the game, so no need to be critical with your years of experience.

Not trying to be critical, just asking.

You are being critical, and no I haven't just learned. I was trying to get some kind of answer on Wyvern's milk before I got it after all of these patches and no one had one straight answer. There were different answers all over the place. Now I am letting everyone know. If you use preserving salts + fridge, you get 4 days spoil timer on Ragnarok, unoffical.

It's hard to get a straight answer because vanilla ark is so different than modded ark.

I use S+ and preserving salts and milk can goes in fridges. But vanilla ark milk cannot go in fridge, just the preserving bin.

You can even see right there someone said "if true". That's because there are all kinds of different info out there. I had to do this myself to actually find out. I had also read you couldn't put honey and organic polymer in the fridge or that it didn't affect the spoiler timer. Not true. They all go up when put in the fridge, and they all double with preserving salts in the fridge as well.

What mods are you using?

My memory is that preserving salts used to work in preserving bins but not friges. Could easily be wrong.
If it is an unintended bug, I bet ti gets patched immediately !!!

Also, be very quick when you take it out of the frige and only take what you can use right away because it's spoiling time will immediately go back to standard. Milk that had been in the frig for 3 days would have a rather short timer remaining once taken out.

Is it S+ that allow salts in friges?
If so, my error. I got used to only using them in preserving bins and... old dog/new tricks
Ceruleana Nov 18, 2018 @ 12:24pm 
It's S+. I added it in my OP to let everyone know what I'm using. I use the S+, stack mod, and classic flyers.
Ceruleana Nov 18, 2018 @ 12:26pm 
Leslie, This is my first time trying to raise a wyvern and I am using a nanny. Have no idea how this goes. I will use the milk as soon as possible. I'm practicing on a lvl 20 egg before I do my 155. I have heard that lvl 20s need to be fed more quickly because of there low food stats.
Leslie Nov 18, 2018 @ 12:26pm 
So many things I learned as gospel 3 years ago..... are now replaced by new fangled space age contraptulations...
Back in my day.....uphill.... both ways......
Ceruleana Nov 18, 2018 @ 12:28pm 
Yeah. I imagine things weren't supposed to be so easy, but they have to keep people interested.
