Tawl Posted December 29, 2016 Share Posted December 29, 2016 (edited) Another guide has been chosen as the preferred one for this game so this has been closed, is not maintained and as a result it may contain outdated or incorrect information. Please follow the link below to the preferred guide. *Direct link to the stickied guide* Road Map Overview: Estimated trophy difficulty: 3/10 (Platinum Difficulty Rating) Offline trophies: 0 - This is an online only game but fortunately, you don't need a PS Plus Subscription to play it. Online trophies: 18 (3(B), 5(S), 9(G), 1(P)) Approximate amount of time to Platinum: 5-10hrs (personal opinion) (Estimated Time to Platinum) Minimum number of playthroughs: 1 Number of missable trophies: 0 Glitched trophies: Most of the trophies for this game have been reported as being very buggy. Does difficulty affect trophies?: No Do trophies stack?: No Do cheat codes disable trophies?: There are cheats but they don't disable any trophies. Introduction: ARK: Survival evolved is a survival game in a world with dinosaurs but there isn't any real story to follow. You have to build a base, tame dinosaurs, battle bosses and survive. There are a lot of different dinosaurs from small ones to giants like the T-Rex. The game is kind of hard at the beginning as there is no tutorial added but after you learn the game, it gets easier to play and understand. When going for the Platinum trophy, I recommend playing this alone instead of with other people. You can use commands when being in a singleplayer session or hosting a non-dedicated server and you use the commands when pressing the button on your controller and you will see on top a small bar with the button "admin command" next to it. Here are all the commands that I used: God: For getting into God Mode. Ghost: For flying through walls and floors when getting stuck in them. ForceTame: To instantly tame the dinosaur that is standing in front of you. Summon <Entity ID>: For spawning a specific dinosaur that you need (see the links section below for the codes). setplayerposition <x> <y> <z>: For teleporting to a specific place. giveitemnum <item> <amount> <max stack> 0: For getting specific items when doing the Cure-All trophy and the Veteran Survivor, Expert Survivor, Survivor Evolved and Master Survivor trophies (see the links section below for the codes). GiveEngrams: For getting all the engrams so you can get the Cure-All trophy easier. Links: Ark Item ID numbers (handy for getting specific items that you need. some items don't have ID numbers so they are not obtainable by using commands) List of all the artifacts, dossiers and notes (very helpful when doing the Artifact archaeologist and Veteran Paleontologist trophy) All the dinosaur ID's. This will give a list of all the dinosaurs with their entity ID for the summon command. Walkthrough: For the Platinum trophy I would do everything in a particular order but you can actually choose yourself what trophy you want to start with. All of the trophies are best to be done on The ARK map as both Scorched Earth and The Center don't have all the artifacts for Artifact archaeologist and Veteran Paleontologist. Step 1: Get all the dinosaur and level related trophies Your first Dino..., Your first Ride..., Maximum Survivor, Maximum Dinosaur, Rex Rider and Giga Rider. The reason why I would do these first is that you can do these trophies in less then 10 minutes so are easy obtainable. Step 2: Get the Survivor trophies Now work on the Veteran Survivor, Expert Survivor and Master Survivor to unlock the Survivor Evolved trophy. Step 3: Artifact Archaeologist and Veteran Paleontologist I would recommend doing both the Artifact Archaeologist and Veteran Paleontologist as these 2 are the most time consuming and will take probably around 70% of your time(or even more). don't forget to restart your save game every 3/4 attempts to minimize crashes. Step 4: Map Maker Now go for Map Maker because with the teleport you filled up around 60% of the map (small guess) and with the teleport command you can get addiction parts on the map to unlock the trophy or you can start a new map and do it from scratch as I did write it down in the trophy guide section as well. Step 5: High and Low After you have unlocked Map Maker you can go for both Highest Peak and Lowest Depth. Step 6: Cure-All and Platinum Now go for the easy Cure-All and you will have all the trophies. Edited May 15, 2017 by Terminator Added a link to the stickied Guide.

Tawl Posted December 30, 2016 Author Share Posted December 30, 2016 (edited) Trophy Guide: http://www.playstationtrophies.org/images/trophies/5329/2b7.jpg Apex Predator Collect all trophies! Get all the other trophies to pop this one. A note about Trophy glitches: Most of the trophies for this game have been reported as being very buggy and the only confirmed fix at the moment, is to delete everything and start again with a fresh install and new save. http://www.playstationtrophies.org/images/trophies/5329/91b.jpg Your first day... You Survived a full day and night on the ARK! This is the easiest trophy you can get, as you just need to survive one day and night then it will pop. Will unlock when you're doing all the other trophies http://www.playstationtrophies.org/images/trophies/5329/548.jpg Your first Dino... You Tamed a Dinosaur! You can actually get this trophy together with both the Rex Rider and Giga Rider trophies so see them for more details. If you want to unlock this earlier, then the Rex Rider or Giga Rider trophies then you just have to find a Dinosaur and use the command: ForceTame. The trophy will pop shortly after the command has been entered http://www.playstationtrophies.org/images/trophies/5329/529.jpg Your first Ride... You Rode a Dinosaur! I would also forward you to the Rex Rider and Giga Rider trophies. If you want to do this trophy earlier, you can ForceTame a dinosaur (see Your first Dino...) then ride it to unlock this trophy. http://www.playstationtrophies.org/images/trophies/5329/c70.jpg Maximum Survivor You reached the Maximum Survivor Level! You can unlock this trophy easy by changing the xp multiplier to 999999 when you host a singleplayer game. After you get your level to 100, the trophy will pop. You can also use the addexperience command for getting instant level 100 together with the Maximum Dinosaur Trophy. Just fill addexperience 10000000 0 1 in while riding on a dinosaur and both you and your dinosaur get instantly enough exp for max level. http://www.playstationtrophies.org/images/trophies/5329/0d9.jpg Maximum Dinosaur One of your Dinosaur's reached Maximum Level! This trophy is actually the same as maximum survivor but you need to get your dinosaur level to maximum e.g. if a dinosaur is level 5, then it will go up to 66) you will get this trophy You can easy do this together with the Rex Rider or Giga Rider trophies. You can also use the addexperience command for getting the max dinosaur exp together with the Maximum Survivor trophy. Just fill addexperience 10000000 0 1 in while riding on a dinosaur and both you and your dinosaur get instantly enough exp for max level. http://www.playstationtrophies.org/images/trophies/5329/908.jpg Rex Rider You rode on the back of a T-Rex! (I would consider doing the God command first) To pop this trophy you need to get into a singleplayer world and in the admin command type: summon Rex_Character_BP_C and then hit r2. After that hit admin command and then you will see a t-rex spawning. Now walk backwards and when you see the T-Rex almost all over your screen go into options and type in ForceTame in the console and hit admin command. As you tamed the T-Rex you can now ride the T-Rex without a saddle. When you ride the T-Rex you will unlock the trophy and if you didn't do Your first Dino... and Your first Ride..., then you will unlock those as well. http://www.playstationtrophies.org/images/trophies/5329/996.jpg Giga Rider You rode on the back of a Giganotosaurus! (I would consider doing the God command first)To pop this trophy you need to get into a singleplayer world and in the admin command type: summon Gigant_Character_BP_C and then hit r2. After that, hit admin command () and then you will see a Giganotosaurus spawning. Now walk backwards and when you see the Giganotosaurus almost all over your screen go into options and type in ForceTame in the console and hit admin command. As you tamed the Giganotosaurus you can now ride the Giganotosaurus without a saddle. When you ride the Giganotosaurus you will unlock the trophy and if you didn't do Your first Dino... and Your first Ride..., then you will unlock those as well. http://www.playstationtrophies.org/images/trophies/5329/bc7.jpg*Artifact Archaeologist* You personally retrieved all the Artifacts! POSSIBLY GLITCHED For this trophy I would recommend to use the "ARK" map, then use the setplayerpos command to teleport you to all the artifacts. On this site: LINK are all the commands for the artifacts to teleport to. Sometimes the teleport will make you unable to move, if so then use the ghost command to fly a bit above the ground and use the walk command to land again. To lower the chance of a game crash use ¾ teleport commands and then restart the save game. After you get your last artifact you will unlock this trophy Possible glitch fix (credit to RachP13 for this): If the trophy refuses to pop, then I recommend deleting all your saves and starting a new game from scratch. Now spawn in all the artifacts crates with admin commands using the following commands: admincheat summon artifactcrate_1_c admincheat summon artifactcrate_2_c admincheat summon artifactcrate_3_c admincheat summon artifactcrate_4_c admincheat summon artifactcrate_5_c admincheat summon artifactcrate_6_c admincheat summon artifactcrate_7_c admincheat summon artifactcrate_8_c admincheat summon artifactcrate_9_c After doing the last command you will unlock this trophy http://www.playstationtrophies.org/images/trophies/5329/0ee.jpg Veteran Paleontologist You unlocked the Dossiers of each of ARK's initial Specimens! This is probably the most time consuming trophy in the game. For this trophy you also need to be on the map: The ARK. Use this website: LINK for all the locations and teleport commands. After you get all the dossiers and notes, the trophy will pop. Sometimes when teleporting you can't walk or fall trough the floor, in which case you should use the ghost command to get to the position and use the walk command to open the chests for the dossiers/notes. After a few times teleporting/using ghost I would recommend to reload the save game to minimize crashes. Edited January 5, 2017 by Tawl Editorial Sweep.

Tawl Posted December 30, 2016 Author Share Posted December 30, 2016 (edited) http://www.playstationtrophies.org/images/trophies/5329/60d.jpg Veteran Survivor You defeated ARK's first Ultimate Life Form! For this teleport you need to kill the Bloodmother (you need to be level 30 for this). First go to one of the 3obelisks and use the command: giveitemnum for all the items/artifacts you need (you can find all the item id numbers here: LINK. When you have all the items in the obelisk, create the item and you will teleport to the Bloodmother cave. When you get close to the Bloodmother, use the kill command to kill it then the trophy will pop. http://www.playstationtrophies.org/images/trophies/5329/bfd.jpg Expert Survivor You defeated ARK's second Ultimate Life Form! For this trophy you need to kill the Megapithecus (you need to be level 60 for this) you can create the items the same way as for the Bloodmother (it needs the same items) and then use the kill command to kill it. http://www.playstationtrophies.org/images/trophies/5329/17e.jpg Survivor Evolved You've defeated ARK's first three Ultimate Life Forms! And yet... For this trophy you need to kill Bloodmother, Megapithecus and Dragon but in that order, else there's a good chance that it won't pop. http://www.playstationtrophies.org/images/trophies/5329/4ff.jpg Master Survivor You defeated ARK's third Ultimate Life Form! For this trophy you need to kill the dragon (you need to hit level 90 for this) but can create the item the same way as the Bloodmother (all 3 need the same items so its kind of easy) and use the kill command to kill the dragon. http://www.playstationtrophies.org/images/trophies/5329/213.jpg Map Maker You've uncovered more than 80% of the Mini-Map! You can actually unlock most of the map already when doing Artifact Archaeologist and Veteran Paleontologist but it's also possible starting from an empty map and using commands like I will describe as well. You can get this trophy by using the setplayerpos command and start on position -500000 -300000 0 and go from -500000 to -400000 and so on until 300000, then change the -300000 to -200000 and do the same thing again from -500000 to 300000. You will get the trophy if you keep going from -500000 to 300000 and every time you hit the 300000 on the <x>, you increase the <y> by 100000 then you will unlock the trophy. http://www.playstationtrophies.org/images/trophies/5329/6ee.jpg Highest Peak You've reached the highest mountain peak of the ARK! Cheat method: For this trophy use the command: Setplayerpos -97000 -51000 46000 on the ark map and then walk around on the edge to unlock this trophy. Legit method: For doing this without cheats be sure to get a flying dragon with decent stamina then head to these co-ordinates: 43.6 37.1. This is located on top of the volcano and is actually the highest point in the game so you will unlock the trophy when standing here and walk a bit around. http://www.playstationtrophies.org/images/trophies/5329/54e.jpg Lowest Depth You've reached the bottom of the ARK's oceans! Cheat method: For this trophy use the command: Setplayerpos -102000 317800 -50000 to unlock this trophy straight away. Legit method: For doing this the normal way, you can fly to 87.1 37.2 on your GPS and dive into the water. I would recommend having at least 300-500 oxygen, because it's a really long dive then you also have a chance to get back up so don't die as you will lose all your stuff if you do. http://www.playstationtrophies.org/images/trophies/5329/57b.jpg Cure-All You've cured yourself of Swamp Fever! Cheat method: For this trophy to get it easier is by writing this command down GiveItem "Blueprint'/Game/PrimalEarth/CoreBlueprints/Items/Consumables/BaseBPs/PrimalItemConsumable_CureLow.PrimalItemConsumable_CureLow'" 1 1 0 After you used the above command, all you have to do is input the following code to spawn a diseased leech: Admincheat Summon Leech_Character_Diseased_C Now all you have to do is let the diseased leech get attached to your body and infect you, then kill it with fire and use the lesser antidote to get the trophy. Legit method: For getting this trophy the normal way you have to be at least level 20 and having the Pestle and Mortar and Lesser Antidote engram unlocked. You need these items to create a Lesser Antidote: 10x Rare Flower (easiest found by going to the swamp and harvesting cat tails) 10x Rare Mushroom (easiest found by harvesting trees in the swamp biome) 3x Leech Blood or Horns (you need to kill leeches for that and harvest the bodies, killing them with fire when they are attached to you does not work!) 1 narcotic (this is easy to be made by having 1 spoiled raw meat and 5 narcoberrys and you need the Narcotic engram unlocked) When you have all the items for creating a lesser antidote and you have the Mortar and Pestle already placed put all the items in the Mortar and Pestle and create a Lesser Antidote. Now all you have to do is finding a diseased leech (red and orange color) and let it attach to your body to get sick. When you see a disease logo in the bottom left corner, kill the leech in a campfire by jumping into it then drink the Lesser Antidote to unlock the trophy.

Supervixen89 Posted December 30, 2016 Share Posted December 30, 2016 Hi! And thanks for this guide! It works very well, but I've got a problem: I killed the Broodmother but the trophy didn't pops. Megatherium and Dragons works without any problem. I tryed to kill the Broodomother 3 times, even deleting existing data. But nothing. How can I resolve this? Thanks a lot for the answer and excuse any english mistakes: I'm italian and I can't speak it very good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really don't know what to do... EDIT: I defeat every boss in this order: Dragon - Megapithecus - Broodmother. You think this can be the problem?

RachP13 Posted December 30, 2016 Share Posted December 30, 2016 Your roadmap order is amiss, considering you need to kill the bosses as part of Veteran Paleontologist trophy, so having them in the roadmap after that trophy is going to be confusing and misleading for people. Maximum Survivor - You can also use the command cheat addexperience to unlock the trophy (works the same for maximum dino however you need to be riding your mount) Artifact Archaeologist - Considering this trophy is glitched for all platforms, the method you suggest doesn't necessarily work. Mainly because the coding for the trophy is looking for a 9th artifact which isn't in the game (Devs have also confirmed this). The best strategy you could suggest would be to use a spawn command to summon in the artifact crates - I've mentioned in a few posts as to how people can get this using the spawn commands. Cure All - You can just use an admin command to spawn in the lesser antidote rather than crafting it. A lot of people have had issues with the trophies (and not just Veteran Paleontologist and Artifact Archaeologist) and it seems that the only workaround in most cases is to delete all of the save data and content data and restart over.

Thats true. Need to change the roadmap abit. I know about the addexperience command but haven't added it yet. Will be tonight when i'm home I just spawned to the first 8 artifacts and got the trophy but i will add the alternate working way in As the lesser antidote doesnt have an ID number I didnt get it to spawn in. Even tested the other command but will test again tonight Edited December 30, 2016 by Tawl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GundamZZ Posted January 3, 2017 Share Posted January 3, 2017 I need to kill each boss again even if Broodmother trophy doesn't pop? why don't you just start a new game and kill the three bosses in the correct sequence like Tawl mentioned above, obviously the three bosses difficulties goes harder in the same sequence, and either way you'll need to get the "Survivor Evolved" trophy if you still haven't got it yet...
