Prevalent in the sandy biome of the desert region, these events appear randomly, severely block your vision, drain your stamina, and deal severe heat damage. Naturally, you must take some special measures to survive it if you are not playing the game in god mode. Take cover in a tent or any structure If you see a Sandstorm approaching in Ark: Survival Ascended, the easiest way to deal with it is to build a tent or any structure and stay inside until the event passes. Sandstorms obscure your vision to a great extent, making catching dinos incredibly difficult, so staying outside is only a waste of health and time.\u00a0 Stay hydrated Make a Water Jug and take it with you when you visit the most arid regions of the map. It will help you stay hydrated and protect your HP. Make sure to have a Jerboa by your side Jerboas are one of the easiest animals to tame in Ark: Survival Ascended, but the best part about them is their ability to warn you of an upcoming weather change. In case of a Sandstorm, your pet Jerboa will look up at the sky and bark, letting you know that you need to take cover before the event begins.\u00a0 Use desert goggles If you still want to explore Scorched Earth during a Sandstorm, craft desert goggles and equip them to clear up your vision.\u00a0 Just enjoy the break while it passes Sandstorms have left the Ark community divided. While many players like the idea of an immersive sandstorm in a desert location and love spending the break with friends, others aren\u2019t fans of being left doing nothing during that time.\u00a0 Studio Wildcard could tweak the situation for players to customize how they want to experience Sandstorms. But ultimately, it\u2019s just a harmless mechanic and makes the desert experience feel closer to reality.\u00a0","apple_news_notices":[],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/Sandstorm_SurvivalAscended-1.png","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1184902"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2196"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1184902"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1184902\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1184932,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1184902\/revisions\/1184932"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1184908"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1184902"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1184902"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1184902"},{"taxonomy":"invoiceable_action","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/invoiceable_action?post=1184902"},{"taxonomy":"internal-label","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/internal-label?post=1184902"},{"taxonomy":"article_type","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/article_type?post=1184902"},{"taxonomy":"author","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/coauthors?post=1184902"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
