overview
any experienced ark player knows that dying is a true raroty. most dinosaurs would rather stand there and let you stab them with your pointy spear than run for their life or oneshot you. Many a player have wondered, I wonder what the respawn screen looks like? or, What happens if you die in ark? the short andwer is, when you die you go back to the spawn screen from when you forst started playing the world. But what if you want to ecpreience it firsthand?
killing yourself
one of the most common eays to die is to kill yourself. this may seem difficult at forst but its actlluy quite easy. have you ever seen a high up cliff or structure? if you have, then here is asimple tipon dying: if you can get on top of this structure, and fall off, you will die. if you do not die then you can rinse and repeat. if you jump instead of walking off the edge that does make it slightly more effective. it is the most effective if the fall is very far, and you would land on the ground rather than water. it is even more effective if a large dinosaur is at the bottom.
drowning
now this one may be a bit controversial. How could you drown in ark? Let me try to explain. In real life, have you ever been in a large bdoy of water? if so have you noticed that you cannot brrathe while you are submerged in the water? if you did not notice this before, i dont recommend trying it- this can result in death in real life which is not advised. however, ark actually did a groundbreaking mechanic: if you go under the water in ark, then you will drown similarly to how you can drown in real life. now, you may be thinking this makes the game a little too realistic. i mean what if your trying to drink water and you accidentally drown instead? well the devs thought of this and they put a failsave for this. when you put your little toe in the water the entire ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ ocean aggroes on you. this is a vwry ueful mechanic because it prevents players from going deep enough in the water to drown. Its brilliant, really.

even though this failsaved is in place you still may want to enter the water because you have never died in ark before. well i can help you my dear freind. all you have to do is look at the eater, then hold the w key on your keybord. of you do this then you will start to walk towards the water. this is another realistic component in ark, because you have to hold the w key to move forward, similarly to real life. if you ho deep enough in the water you may notice four hundred fifty seven thousand three hundred and nineteen sharks swimming towards you. do not panic. this happens to prevent players from drowning by scaring them away or killing them a different way. however if you ignore the sharks then i cqn gairantee you will die extremely effeively.
burning
now have you ever burnt alive before? if you haven't then all you have to do is go on twitter and state your opinion. you will very quickly come to know what it feels like to burn alive. Ark does not have twitter however, so burning alive is a little more difficult. it can still be done. let me give you a few tips. on how to burn qlive very very effectively.



  • the cheapest way:
    the easiest and cheapest way to burn alive is a campfire. you can achieve this by punchung trees as if you were minecraft steve. after gathering some thatch, and wood, you may notice some text at the top of the screen saying level up available. if not then punch more tree until it appears; there is an audio cue jumpscare that plays when the text appears. once it appears, go to your inventory and level up your character. after doing this you will notice in yourbengram list the number above it will increase. go to this tab and unlock a pickaxe and a campfire. after this is fone, mine rocks with your pickaxe. if yellow flint is being added to your inventory, you are doing it right. all you mustbdo then is use the flint to craft a campfire, turn it on and stand in it. if your health is decreasing you are doing it right and you will soon be dead.
  • the fastest way:
    while you were gathering flint, you may have noticed something called, .etal ore appear in your inventory. if you get this, then there is a faster way to burn alive. go to your crafting menu. here, place one flint and one metal ore into the grid. in the output box you will see flint and steel, if you dont then you are doing it wrong. look straight down with the flint amd steel in your hand, and press rmb. you will yhen be set on fire, and once your heath reaches 0 you will die.
  • the most painful way:
    have you ever noticed a crack in the back of a mountain? no i am not talking about your moms asscrack i mean a cave. there are a few caves scattered around on every map. one of these caves may be a lava cave. one key feature to signal lava caves is you will start overheating once you enter the cave. if you go further in soon you will see some orange gatorade. however wildcard actually doesn't like pepsico so they made it so upo touching Gatorade you will start to dir rapidly. you can exploit such a feature however to die very effectively. it is very effective to keep people from drinking Gatorade too.
  • the inescapable way:
    are you playing on an official ark server? if so then you may want to brag about your ability to have enough free time to read this guide. but another thong you can do on such a server is try to poke someone wearing robotic looking armor with your spear. especially if they can fly around and run very fast then such a thing can be very effective at evicting your soul from your body. if your lucky they may kill you with a flamethrower. lucky you.



one more notable way is to look for any dragons. if you see one, follow it around. they will usually have an egg nearby. if you pick up their egg then you can experience a barbecue from a completely new perspective. such a thing also results in deayh. Neat!
starving
when playing ark, have you ever seen text saying that you are starving? such a thing normally inclines you to eat berries or cooked meat. however, if you fight the urge to consume food, then this eill actually result in death. you caan even speed up the process by eating ♥♥♥♥ or raw meat. this is a refrence to the hit game among us, because similarly to among us raw prime meat only has one bone in it. the main difference ia that raw prime meat typically isnt sus.
dinosaurs
it is a little known fact that ark survival evolved is actually a game about dinosaurs. yes, i know, you must be baffled tp hear such a thing. but thats because the dinosaurs hide from you when they see you. there are however a few ways to make them come out of hiding, or even do all the work for you and kill you without ypu having to press any buttons on your keyboard! here are some tips to find dinosaurs who would be willing to kill you for you.



  • walk straight into the forest
  • carry large amounts of raw meat at the beaches
  • walk off main paths and into rough terrain
  • walk towards any noises you hear
  • pick up any and all dinosaur eggs you see
  • move uphill as fast as possible
  • enter any caves you may notice

if this helps you find a dinosaur, then you have done it correctly. after the dinosaur has been located walk straight towards it and start punching it. this is aa way of communicating to it to let it know that you would like it to assist you in going to the afterlife. if it begins to run, that means it is a little ♥♥♥♥♥ and wont help you. that means you need to find a new dinosaur. however, if it starts moving towards you rapidly and attacking you, then it has accepted your offer. for the best results do not move as it assists you.
summary
were you able to die in ark? did you witness the respawn screen yourself? congratulations! you have done a brag worthy thing. The only thing id like to add is that all of these are recommended to only do in ark. if done on real life it is possible you could die in real life. however real life ie in hardcore mode so this is not recommended.

"457319 sharks swimming toward you"
Most simple way to die, but there is something simpler.
Use this admin command:
admincheat SpawnDino "Blueprint/Game/PrimalEarth/Dinos/Giganotosaurus/Gigant_Character_BP_C.Gigant_Character_BP_C" 0 0 0 150
It will spawn a giant dinosaur that looks like a Tyrannosaurus, but once it notices you, you will take about 1000 damage, which is usually sufficient enough to kill even the players with over 9000 armor in one or two hits.

this is hilarious, but at the same time i really hope that it was written by an 8 year old because the spelling (or lack thereof) is truly atrocious. How the hell do you misspell the word "experience?" It's LITERALLY called "exp" in the damn game!!!! Guess this guide was written by a "forst" grader.

I attempted this in real life and did indeed die, however a little known fact is that you can actually use admin commands irl to respawn
