I installed the mod for the minions that I saw in the video and there is no more, spawn percentage is very low, would have to have a 5 by the map, and tried that holo command line and nothing came up? Good mods I'm enjoying.

Sarco (cyber croc)
Kaprosuchus (poor galloping croc needs love.)
Pteranodon/Tapejara (surprised these don't exist already tbh, though Tapejara does have a tek saddle, so maybe the need wasn't felt there.)
Plesiosaur (techno rave in Loch Ness)
Brontosaurus
Pachy
Therizinosaur (Tickle chicken gets an upgrade)

I might think of others... but nothing comes to mind at the moment. That list should keep you busy for a while, though! :)

Maybe a Tek Wyvern with an element beam/bomb/breath?

Second this, perhaps applying either Radiation or sun debuff?

Also I assume you plan on making them look mechanical over time?

what do you mean? they look very different already? I'm not going to make my own models and animations.

My plan for what they are is a more... player-made creation, not comething created by the ARK. Meaning, a survivor would have seen these tek creatures and taken advanced bits and pieces, fusing them into flesh to make their own more powerful versions creatures. Like how Rockwell injected test subjects to make them more powerful.

bronto tek saddle that is artillery or a heavy cannon or why not a mobile tek replicator?

My goal here is to make new creatures entirely, not new saddles, but i love the mobile tek replicator idea!!

Also @Xander Floyd, thanks for the ideas. you da bomb. But could i pick your brain more? I would like these creatures to not just look different, but have more abilities. Can you think of some cool custom abilities a tek creature might have?

Tek Beelz-
-Even higher reduced fall damage
-Higher/further jump
-Much more potent lick attack with reduced damage
-Can shoot a poison ball every 30 seconds for high torpor

Tek Jerboa
-Always spawns at lvl 150
-Doesnt actually do anything cool. Just a cool new shoulder mount

Tek Voulture
-Pack bonus
-Bleed damage up to 3%

Tek Giga (Could use bionic skin for a reskin)
-Same as regular giga but can now damage metal structures. Not tek though

Tek Dodo
-passively produces a random kibble when it poops

Tek Saber
-Gnash effect and stamina drain (Make these kittys fearsome)

Tek Sarco
-Crushes smaller weight class dinos in its jaws killing them instantly causing the heal buff

Tek Theri-
-When attacking smaller dinos you do more damage
- "C" Ability to sharpen claws, causing more damage for 30 seconds. 90 second cooldown (Can use level up animation)


Send me a FR if you would like more ideas, i think of this stuff pretty daily and wouldnt mind helping you out my dude

Tek bronto
-Like said above, Mobile tek replicator

Tek Pheonix
-reduces metal weight like an anky and smelts as fast as the industrial forge
-can now land (like it should have always been able too!)
-No longer only spawns duiring a heatwave and can spawn where a quetz can spawn

Tek Dimetrodon
-Provides MUCH higher insolation (One can hatch any egg)

Tek Penguin
-Produces organic poly in its inventory at a rate of 1 every 10 minutes

Tek Liopleurodon
-permenant tame
-Shares the mosa spawn

Tek Mammoth
-Its tusks slightly burn wood (50% of all wood gathered is now charcoal)

Tek Otter
This little guy produces silica pearls over time (1 per 25 minutes)

Tek Pachy
-new ramming mechanic that can damage even tek and breaks bones
-15% increase in base health

Tek phiomia
-poops straight fertilizer

Tek Spino
-just needs some cool visual upgrades, its mechanics are pretty good

Tek terror bird
-can carry small creatures in its mouth

Tek Troodon
-bleed effect
-super scary
-who wouldnt want one

Tek Ankylo
-Produces one ingot per minute
-Reduces the weight of ingots

Tek Argy
-Already has good features but needs the griffin dive bomb

Tek Arthro
-Passively produces Narcotics. 1 per 5 minutes
-15% base health and damage increase

Tek Carno
-50% increase in movement speed
-Gnash effect with headbut
-Bleed and slow effect with bite

Tek Chalicotherium
-Passively produces beer and extends its spoil timer (great for taming regular ones)

Tek Doed
-Can damage stone structures

-Saddle is a smithy

Tek Kentro

-Pack bonus

Tek Ovis

For visuals i recommend not using that Tek helmet and spine combo too much. I believe subtlety can go a long way. Just using light effect on eyes, claws and color accents can make a creature look really good. You're doing a great job on the mod my dude, feel free to message me whenever for ideas.

Tek Reaper
-Passively produces nameless venem

tek seeker
-ridable
-can walk and fly underwater
-crafteble at level 45
-saddle at level 65
