ARK Survival Evolved Wiki:Style guide/Creatures

This is an example page for the general style of Creature pages.

This short introductory sentence above the table of contents should include the creature's name and pronunciation, as well as it's status as a creature. For example: The Doedicurus (dee-dik-YOO-russ) is one of the Mammals in ARK: Survival Evolved.

Behavior
Add a description of how the creature behaves. Does it attack anything it sees? Is it a passive creature that runs when threatened? Maybe it does something unique like throwing poo(Mesopithecus) or roll into an impenetrable ball(Doedicurus)?

Appearance
Add a description for the creature. Try and keep it limited to in-game appearance and avoid simply copying from Wikipedia or some other site not related to the game.

Drops
What can be gathered by harvesting the creature? These items should be bulleted and link to the item they are referring to.

Base Stats and Growth
This table contains the stats a creature has at Level 1, as well as the amount that each stat increases by when it is leveled up both in the wild and when domesticated.

Taming
Note: The content of this section is temporary until the necessary data is released for a Taming Table to be created for the creature.

The estimates on the maximum and minimum number of Tranquilizer Arrows it will take to knock the creature unconscious should refer to shots taken with an engram-quality Wooden Bow, not Crossbows, Compound Bows, or upgraded bows from supply crates.

Preferred Food
What does the creature prefer to eat? Does it have a favorite Kibble? Does it prefer Crops or Berries, and if so, which ones?



KO Strategy
How is the creature tamed? Is it tamed violently or non-violently? Does the creature have something about it that makes taming difficult/different, such as exceptionally high movement speed or torpor?

Roles
What roles does the creature fill? Is it a good tank that can take a lot of damage? Does its high Weight stat make it a good pack animal?

Collectibles
What resources can the creature gather? The resource-gathering is ranked on a 5-star-ranking.

Spotlight
Not all pages will have this section. This is where you should embed the official spotlight video if available.

Gallery
This goes at the bottom of the page and contains various images of the in-game creature. You can add your own images here as long as they don't violate the Wiki Rules, but if a page has too many images, space may be limited to those deemed "higher quality".

Template
