ARK Survival Ascended server rates are an important statistic that should always be checked before delving into a play session. As a survival MMO, your rate of progression in this game largely depends on how fast you scavenge and process resources into something functional. 'Server rates' are essentially the rate at which the progress will happen.
Unofficial servers or single-player sessions can have anything from regular to 50x rates depending on server rules set by the admin. In this article, however, we'll provide you with an up-to-date breakdown of official ARK Survival Ascended server rates this week.
ARK Survival Ascended official server rates right now
ARK Survival Ascended server rates on official servers change every three to five days, so it's important to stay on top of this phase before you start grinding.
Here are the ongoing rates on the official server at the time of writing (updated September 17):
PVP/PVE server rates:
- 1 × Taming
- 1 × Harvesting
- 1 × XP
- 1 × Mating Interval
- 1 × Maturation
- 1 × Hatching
- 1 × Cuddle Interval
- 1 × Imprinting
- 1 × Hexagon Reward
Small Tribes server rates:
- 2.5 × Taming
- 2.5 × Harvesting
- 2.5 × XP
- 0.5 × Mating Interval
- 2 × Maturation
- 2 × Hatching
- 1 × Cuddle Interval
- 1 × Imprinting
- 1 × Hexagon Reward
Small Tribes are generally less hectic than regular official servers, since the tribe sizes are small and no alliances are allowed. On top of this, the ARK Survival Ascended server rates are always higher on these, making for a cozier experience.
