Ark: Survival Ascended: Shiny! Dinos Ascended Mod Adds Pokémon Flair
Ark: Survival Ascended is already a pretty wild game, but a new mod is making it even more exciting. "Shiny! Dinos Ascended" by nevcairiel on Curse Forge introduces a Pokémon-inspired feature that adds new color palettes and skins for the game's dinosaurs.
The mod adds "rare and special" dinosaurs with boosted stats, unique appearances, and even special abilities. These Shiny Dinos come in 40 different colors, some of which even use Ark's dye system. Even though the colors are vibrant, the mod is designed to make sure that the dinosaurs still look natural in the game's environment.
More Than Just Looks
While the Shiny Dinos look cool, there's more to the mod than just aesthetics. Unlike Shiny Pokémon, which are mostly just color swaps, these dinos can gain special abilities. Some of these abilities include powerful status effects like Frozen, Burning, and Spectral. The mod is still under development, so more abilities are likely to be added in the future.
If you're not into spending hours searching for shiny dinos, the mod also includes a Tracker system that helps you quickly find the dinos you want to tame. It's not perfect, but it definitely speeds up the process compared to the traditional method.
Overall, "Shiny! Dinos Ascended" is a great example of how the Ark community is constantly finding new ways to improve the game. The mod is a fun addition to Ark: Survival Ascended and adds a new layer of excitement to the taming experience.
