What is your opinion on the perfect multiplier?
I wish there were official servers with a 2x multiplier at least. Do you think the standard is just perfect?

Which multiplier are you talking about? Gathering? Taming? xp? All of them?

officials are fine. early game stuff gets tamed / farmed fast enough, while end game stuff takes enough time to tame / farm. A game where everyone can easily get to the endgame isnt fun.

Also the devs are constantly adding ways to farm stuff. frog for CP is a great example. fairly easy to tame, high benefit. Wooden club and penguins are also an amazing new "tool".

The game already got a lot out of hand. about 5 months ago a base with 4-6 autoturret was pretty well defended, especially after they startet shooting at rockets / grenades.

Now our base has about 60 auto turrets and 100 plant species x, but could still be attacked and conqueres. unthinkable to attack such a base months ago. or to even farm that much stuff for 60 autoturrets.

If you so desperatly want higher multipliers go to unofficals, but they are actually a lot worse imo.
Yes you can farm a metal base faster, but you can also destroy it a lot faster.

Anyway just my opinion on server rates.

official is kinda hard with out a tribe. the server i play on is 5x xp 10x gather 50x tame imo the tame and xp is way to high taking a lot of the fun away. i think 5x all would be a sweet spot

i love x6 personally. then again im a solo player and anytime ive been in a tribe ive been the leader.

I'd say x3 xp, normal gather and x10 tame are perfect.

Starter alway hard but if you play smart and egg farm dilo/raptor at early as you can. Dilo eggs for anky/doed and raptor eggs for mammoth. Once you have these dino things alot easier, Doed per hit gathering 50+stone anky can get metal super quickly also good for thatch and mammoth get 40+ per hit.
Play smart and use wiki or Google for tips.

Multipliers are for filthy casuals.

Personally I prefer the official rates the best simply because it forces you to tame low level dinos at first and you work your way up. The official rates also force people to build crappy base designs. Like others have said the unofficial servers are fun for a few weeks, but it gets boring pretty fast.

The only thing I truly like about higher taming rates is that Raw Prime is almost as good as kibble, it just takes 3x as long to tame with. Hopefully something like that gets worked in when the rework the taming mechanics.
