The Mini-HLNA Skin is both a skin and an off-hand slot in ARK: Survival Evolved.

Obtaining[]

The Mini-HLNA Skin can be acquired by purchasing the Genesis Season Pass for $34.99 USD.

Usage[]

Mini-HLNA acts as moving pet floating at the side of the Survivor. She often says random sentences when the Survivor either does a specific action, such as pooping, executing an Emote or idling while looking at her.

Notes/Trivia[]

  • The Mini HLN-A Skin is meant to be a piece of the survivor Helena.
    • It has her personality as well as her carefree voice.
  • The Season Pass must be owned to spawn in the Skin.
    • Also, the Skin cannot be dropped, making trading almost impossible, but if you unequip everything, including the Mini-HNLA Skin, then fast travel to a bed, you will then be able to transfer it as normal.
    • However, any color painted on it will revert to unpainted, this includes death or transfer.
  • Currently having Mini-HLNA equipped while accessing a Bee Hive Giant Bee Hive with a complete Ghillie Armor Ghillie Armor set will still give you the bees debuff.
  • A strange glitch will occur once you paint the Mini-HLNA, and use the Soap Soap item to get rid of the Coloring Dye. You will have 2 Mini-HLNAs hovering near you- one painted and one with default coloring. This can be fixed by exiting the ARK and rejoining. (Tested on Singleplayer)
  • Another glitch will occur when a Scout Scout or Cruise Missile Cruise Missile is used, HLNA will react multiple times to pooping, causing multiple voice lines to be played at once. (Tested on Singleplayer).
  • The Mini-HLNA Skin was updated to provide story notes related to the Genesis: Part 1 and Genesis: Part 2 DLCs prior to their releases.

Genesis: Part 1 Notes[]

  • HLN-A will often project different emotes to aid in her dialogue.
  • In its discoveries, you can access them like a normal explorer note and it repeats the same message HLNA said when you first discovered the note along with interesting visuals.
