The Mega Mek is a giant variant of the Mek that you can assemble using the M.O.M.I. in Ark Extinction. You will need four Mek to craft 1 Mega Mek, which you can use for fighting against the Alpha King Titan.
The important thing here will be crafting the Mek first. This guide will cover how to craft a Mega Mek in Ark: Survival Ascended and all the materials you need to craft a standard Mek. Without wasting any more time, let’s get into it.
How to craft Mega Mek in Ark Extinction?
To craft Mega Mek in Ark Extinction, you will need two things. First, make sure you have crafted four standard Meks, and second, make sure you have the M.O.M.I.
To get the M.O.M.I., you must defeat the Beta King Titan. Once you defeat Beta King Titan, you can collect the M.O.M.I. from the Artifact pod.
Once you have both items, you can start crafting the Mega Mek. Note that Mega Mek can only be used while fighting the Alpha King Titan. If you summoned it in the Absence of Alpha King Titan, it would not move and self-destruct in 30 seconds.
Mega Mek is a giant robot that can easily take out Alpha King Titan. The difference between the normal Mek and Mega Mek is that it only uses the blade to remove enemies. It doesn’t have any cannon like usual, on the other hand.
Moreover, you don’t get any options to put some modules on its back, which you can do on Mek. But still, it is good enough to remove the Alpha Titan King out of your way.
Materials required to make Mega Mek in ARK Extinction
Since you need 4 Meks to create 1 Mega Mek, the material requirement will be the same, but you will need more of everything. The Mega Mek can only be crafted at the Tek Replicator. Below, we’ve highlighted all the materials along with their locations;
Black Pearls
On Extinction, Black Pearls can only be obtained through Gachas. Gachas give you random drops of materials once you have them tamed. You may need to tame several creatures and check in with their drops periodically to ensure you get your desired materials.
Crystal
Crystal, on the other hand, is found abundantly throughout the Extinction map. Every biome has this resource handy. Above, we’ve highlighted some of the best locations you can go to, to get this resource.
Element
Element or Element Dust can be found only in the Sanctuary biome. We’ve highlighted the best locations to farm this resource above.
Metal Ingot
Metal is another easily farmable resource on Extinction. You can find it in all biomes in virtually every corner of the map. Above, we’ve highlighted all the best locations to get Metal ingots on Extinction.
Polymer
Like the Black Pearls, Polymer can only be obtained through Gachas. Tame several of them to increase your chances of acquiring Polymer in Ark.
Once all the required items are collected, you can use them at the Rek Replicator to craft a Mek. Once you have a MeK, you can pilot it, take out different creatures, and collect resources using its Tek Rifle and Tek Sword.
As far as Tek Replicator is concerned, it is a late-game crafting station that is used for crafting Tek tier items in Ark Aberration. Its speed is much faster than the standard crafting station. The cost of using it for 10 minutes is 1 Element.
Mega Mek Spawn Command in Ark
If you’re having trouble building the Mega Mek in Ark: Survival Ascended, you can use spawn commands to have it spawn in your inventory. To do this, you must open the cheat console by pressing the TAB key on your keyboard.
If you’re playing on PlayStation, you’ll need to hold down L1, R1, Square, and Triangle at once, and similarly, on Xbox, hold down, LB, RB, X, and Y at once. Once the console opens, simply type in: “MegaMek_Character_BP_C” and hit enter to add this resource directly to your inventory.
If you encounter a situation where the command does not work, try resetting your system or game.
