The actual numbers, not "boosted"

Every value below is read straight off the running config. If it says 10x here, it is 10x when you log in.

Taming Instant

Knock it out, feed it once, ride it. Taming is not the game here.

Harvesting 10×

Cluster-wide, every resource.

Experience 10×

Max level inside a couple of sessions, not a fortnight.

Stack size 1,000

Most items stack to a thousand. Fewer vault walls, less inventory admin.

Egg hatching 120×

Mating interval is cut to a twentieth, so a line can actually be bred in an evening.

Maturation 100×

One cuddle is a full imprint, it is available straight away, and anyone in the tribe can do it.

Crop growth 10×

Plant it, go and do something else, come back to a harvest.

Carry weight Unlimited

For you and your tames. Every point of Weight is worth a fortune, so hauling stops being the bottleneck.

Tribe cap 5

Enforced by the server, not by trust. Allying around it is a raid-size violation.

Raid weekends

Raiding runs on a clock. So do double points.

All week, turrets deal double damage and structures take half, whether you are online or not. On Friday evening that switches off, the raid window opens, and every hour you play inside it pays double points.

Raid window Fri 18:00 → Mon 01:00 UTC
Defences boosted

Turrets deal 2x damage, structures take half. 25 points an hour.

Raid window

Normal rates, no online/offline exceptions. 50 points an hour.

The cluster

Ten maps. One save.

Tribes, dinos and gear transfer freely between all of them. Same rates, same rules, everywhere.

What you get

Custom-built
for this cluster

The cluster runs on software we wrote for it, not a rented panel and three plugins.

Tribe logs

Raid alerts in your own Discord

Point our bot at your tribe's server and your tribe log lands there: turrets firing, structures dropping, members added and removed, all in the channel your tribe already has open. Membership is verified in game before a subscription goes live, so nobody can subscribe to your logs but you.

Economy

Points you earn by playing

Time on the server accrues points automatically, and double during the raid window. Spend them on the web shop and it lands in your inventory in game: tamed dinos, max-stat creatures, breeding pairs guaranteed male and female, gear and bulk resources.

Uptime

Updates, handled

An ARK patch makes an out-of-date server invisible in the browser, so none gets left behind: the bot alerts staff the moment a map falls behind the live build, and every map is updated together. A patch does not mean an afternoon of the cluster being unjoinable.

Moderation

The tribe cap is actually enforced

Five means five. We log gameplay and connection data to catch alt accounts, ban evasion and people trying to run a mega-tribe behind three alliances. Reports go to a human, and a human decides.

Economy

Playtime pays.

Points accrue just for being online: 25 an hour, 50 during the raid window, nothing to claim and no purchase needed to take part. Spend them on the site and it is delivered to you in game, straight away if you are logged in.

Free, twice a day

Starter kit: type /kit

Link your character in the Discord, then type /kit in game chat. You can claim it twice every 24 hours:

  • Level 150 Argentavis and Ankylosaurus, cryopodded, each with a saddle
  • Mastercraft sniper rifle and 500 advanced rounds
  • Full flak set, a Mastercraft pike, pick and hatchet, and a crossbow
  • Two Industrial Forges and a stone base with a dino gate
  • 100 Medical Brews, parachutes, bolas and grappling hooks
Rules

It is a real PvP server

Four that shape the place more than the rest. The full list lives in Discord and is kept current.

Meshing

Instant tribe wipe and ban. No warnings, no appeals, no exceptions for anyone.

Raid window

Structures are tanky all week (2x turret damage, half damage taken). Rates go back to normal Friday 18:00 UTC to Monday 01:00 UTC, and that's when raiding actually happens.

Raid parties

Capped at five. Allying to get around the cap is treated as a raid-size violation.

Insiding

Legal. Who is in your tribe, and who gets removed, is entirely your tribe leader's call.

FAQ

The questions people actually ask

Everything below is current. If something is missing, ask in Discord and it gets added here.

How do I join Arkade?

Search Arkade in the ARK: Survival Ascended unofficial server browser and pick any of the ten maps. They share one save, so it does not matter which you start on. If the browser is being slow to populate, join the Discord and use the direct connect details there.

What are the rates?

10x harvesting and XP, instant taming, and 5-man tribes. Breeding is boosted too, so a full raise takes hours rather than days.

Does the server wipe?

No. Arkade is a no-wipe cluster: there are no seasons and no scheduled resets, so anything you build is permanent. The cluster was wiped once on 4 September 2026 to give everyone a level start, and that was the last one.

Can I raid during the week?

Technically, but it's not worth it. Turrets deal double damage and structures take half damage every day from Monday through Friday evening, so a base that folds in minutes on a vanilla server takes a lot more than that here. Raiding opens up properly on the weekend.

Is the shop pay to win?

You earn shop points simply by playing, 25 an hour, automatically, with nothing to claim. Points buy base packs, breeding pairs, blueprints and resources. Everything in the shop is reachable by playing the server.

Which maps are on the cluster?

The Island, The Center, Scorched Earth, Ragnarok, Valguero, Aberration, Extinction, Genesis, Astraeos and Lost Colony: ten maps sharing one cluster, so you can transfer freely between them with your character, tames and gear.

Does Arkade use mods?

Yes, a small set of quality-of-life mods including Cybers Structures and a 1,000-stack mod, identical across all ten maps so nothing is lost when you transfer.

When is the raid window?

Friday 18:00 UTC through Monday 01:00 UTC. Rates go back to normal for that window, with no online/offline exceptions. Plan around the clock, not around who's logged in.

Build it once. Keep it.

Get your tribe in and pick where you are building. It is not going anywhere. The Discord is where everything is organised.
