Amidst flying dinosaurs and colossal sandworms, it's easy to forget that resource-gathering is the one thing that will help you progress in Ark: Survival Ascended. Obsidian, a key material, is vital for this. Mastering its efficient locations can vastly enhance your gaming journey. In this guide, I'll show you where you can find Obsidian in Ark: Survival Ascended. All Obsidian locations in Ark: Survival Ascended Here's every Obsidian farming location in Ark: Survival Ascended. To make the most of your farming journey, get an Ankylosaurus mount. Map location Area name Coordinates How to get there Valley of Obsidian X: 32; Y:20 Near the Wyvern Trench, you can find a valley teeming with Obsidian deposits. You can fill your pockets quite easily, but beware of potential Wyvern encounters. Rock Formations X: 58; Y:57 Look for tall rock formations across the map; they are now rich sources of Obsidian. These spots are perfect for resource gathering without disturbances. Mountain Top X: 54; Y:34 Positioned between the Blue and Red Obelisks, these mountain peaks are full of Obsidian deposits. This area also makes for an excellent base spot.\u00a0 Scar Trench X: 42; Y: 15 A risky yet rewarding location, the Scar Trench is filled with Obsidian clusters. The one issue with farming Obsidian here is the danger of running into Wyverns. Safe Obsidian Spot X: 60; Y: 22 For a safer option, head to this area slightly elevated from the Scar Trench. Here, you can find Obsidian deposits without the constant threat of Wyverns. Red Obelisk Mountain X: 72; Y: 50 Close to the Red Obelisk, this mountain has both Crystal and Obsidian. Again, there's an abundance of hostile creatures lurking within, so proceed with caution. Best uses for Obsidian in Ark: Survival Ascended Obsidian is primarily used to create Polymer in Ark: Survival Ascended. Polymer is an indispensable component for numerous high-tier items. Here are the recipes you should prioritize and why: Artifact Pedestal: A decorative structure to display artifacts.\u00a0 Chain Ball: A weapon that immobilizes and restrains creatures. Great for smaller creatures like the Achatina. Arthropluera Saddle: A saddle that lets you ride the Arthropulera, the giant sandworm in Scorched Earth. Controlling and riding this mount can make traversal in the desert much faster. Cannon Ball: A heavy projectile that you can fire from cannons to deal massive damage to opponents. Great for defending your base.","apple_news_notices":[],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/Obsidian-ASA.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1189870"}],"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\/2576"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1189870"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1189870\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1189924,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1189870\/revisions\/1189924"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1189873"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1189870"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1189870"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1189870"},{"taxonomy":"invoiceable_action","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/invoiceable_action?post=1189870"},{"taxonomy":"internal-label","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/internal-label?post=1189870"},{"taxonomy":"article_type","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/article_type?post=1189870"},{"taxonomy":"author","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/coauthors?post=1189870"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}

Amidst flying dinosaurs and colossal sandworms, it's easy to forget that resource-gathering is the one thing that will help you progress in Ark: Survival Ascended. Obsidian, a key material, is vital for this. Mastering its efficient locations can vastly enhance your gaming journey. In this guide, I'll show you where you can find Obsidian in Ark: Survival Ascended. All Obsidian locations in Ark: Survival Ascended Here's every Obsidian farming location in Ark: Survival Ascended. To make the most of your farming journey, get an Ankylosaurus mount. Map location Area name Coordinates How to get there Valley of Obsidian X: 32; Y:20 Near the Wyvern Trench, you can find a valley teeming with Obsidian deposits. You can fill your pockets quite easily, but beware of potential Wyvern encounters. Rock Formations X: 58; Y:57 Look for tall rock formations across the map; they are now rich sources of Obsidian. These spots are perfect for resource gathering without disturbances. Mountain Top X: 54; Y:34 Positioned between the Blue and Red Obelisks, these mountain peaks are full of Obsidian deposits. This area also makes for an excellent base spot.\u00a0 Scar Trench X: 42; Y: 15 A risky yet rewarding location, the Scar Trench is filled with Obsidian clusters. The one issue with farming Obsidian here is the danger of running into Wyverns. Safe Obsidian Spot X: 60; Y: 22 For a safer option, head to this area slightly elevated from the Scar Trench. Here, you can find Obsidian deposits without the constant threat of Wyverns. Red Obelisk Mountain X: 72; Y: 50 Close to the Red Obelisk, this mountain has both Crystal and Obsidian. Again, there's an abundance of hostile creatures lurking within, so proceed with caution. Best uses for Obsidian in Ark: Survival Ascended Obsidian is primarily used to create Polymer in Ark: Survival Ascended. Polymer is an indispensable component for numerous high-tier items. Here are the recipes you should prioritize and why: Artifact Pedestal: A decorative structure to display artifacts.\u00a0 Chain Ball: A weapon that immobilizes and restrains creatures. Great for smaller creatures like the Achatina. Arthropluera Saddle: A saddle that lets you ride the Arthropulera, the giant sandworm in Scorched Earth. Controlling and riding this mount can make traversal in the desert much faster. Cannon Ball: A heavy projectile that you can fire from cannons to deal massive damage to opponents. Great for defending your base.","apple_news_notices":[],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/Obsidian-ASA.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1189870"}],"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\/2576"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1189870"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1189870\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1189924,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1189870\/revisions\/1189924"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1189873"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1189870"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1189870"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1189870"},{"taxonomy":"invoiceable_action","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/invoiceable_action?post=1189870"},{"taxonomy":"internal-label","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/internal-label?post=1189870"},{"taxonomy":"article_type","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/article_type?post=1189870"},{"taxonomy":"author","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/coauthors?post=1189870"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
