Human Feces
Everyone Poops. Can provide nitrogen to help crops grow in their plots. Would be more efficient Fertilizer if combined with Thatch in Compost Bin.

Human Feces are the excrements of humans in ARK: Survival Evolved. From time to time, they automatically drop from any survivor. Additionally, the player can press + or B + Left Stick to manually drop feces. The Food Food-icon becomes grey/pale when the target is in a hidden status of "constipated" and it is ready to poop. While constipated, the player will consume food at a greater rate than normal. Upon pooping, the bar will return to its normal teal color. Sometimes you will need to poop repeatedly when replenishing stamina or health. If eaten, human feces drop the survivor's health by 30 points.

Usage[]

Human Feces can be used as fertilizer and add 1000 points to fertilization when they are put in the inventory of a Crop Plot.

They can be combined with Thatch in a Compost Bin to produce Fertilizer Fertilizer, or used to tame Dung Beetles. A Dung Beetle can also convert it to Oil and Fertilizer.

* When a plant has its maximum of fruits, it needs less fertilizer. As the fruits spoil after some time, leaving the plant in a non-full state for some time, these numbers are rather theoretical maximums.

Notes[]

  • Strangely enough, the Mesopithecus actually drops Human Feces. This is likely because the creature is so small and the Small Animal Feces would look too large in comparison to the size of the Mesopithecus, or perhaps because Humans are primates, which the Mesopithecus, being a monkey, also is.
  • Human Feces can no longer be force fed to unconscious players to kill them.
  • One way to kill yourself is to eat enough of your own Feces.
  • If one had the means to acquire a large quantity of Human Feces, this is the most weight efficient feces for creating Fertilizer Fertilizer via Dung Beetle Dung Beetle.
