Chitin is a colorless substance you can farm in Ark Ragnarok. It is the polymer part of a creature’s exoskeletons, radulae, beaks, and other physical structures. Chitin is an extremely helpful resource that is used to craft several items in the game.
In this guide, we will cover everything a player needs to know about Chitin, including its applications in the game and all the locations you can find on the Ark Ragnarok map.
Ark: Ragnarok Chitin Location #1
Here, players will see a Delta with Lava coming out. Go to the area marked on the map image above, and you’ll find a lot of mantises and cent peers. So, all you have to do is kill some mantises and fly back to your base. These creatures are mostly found at the following coordinates:
- LAT:26
- LON:57
Ark: Ragnarok Chitin Location #2
- LAT: 22
- LON: 32
Go to the top northwest of the Ark Ragnarök map. Get near the lake and take out your crossbow with a grappling hook. You will also need a Pike. Hunt a strange creature living in the lake to get chitin.
Other ways to get Chitin in Ragnarok
While there are many ways to farm Chitin in Ark, the best way to farm it early is through Trilobites. Just go to the coast and start swimming. Kill any Tribolite you come across and get considerable Chitin from each creature.
You should use a pick-axe for harvesting purposes. While you can use stone tools to hit those creatures, it’s recommended to use a Pike if you have one.
Uses of Chitin in Ark Survival Ascended
Cementing Paste is the most important material you will make out of the Chitin you have gathered. The paste can also be gathered as an individual material, so if you struggle to gather Chitin, you can farm Cementing paste separately. However, as a substitute for Keratin, Chitin can still be beneficial for those recipes.
Apart from Cementing Paste, you can also use Chitin for:
- Aerial Symbiote.
- Chitin Chestpiece.
- Chitin Boots.
- Chitin Leggings
- Chitin Gauntlets
- Chitin Helmet
- Chitin Armor
Ark Survival Ascended Chitin Console Commands
If you’re having trouble finding Chitin in Ark: Survival Ascended, you can use its item ID to spawn large amounts of this resource through the server admin console. To do this, start your game and press “TAB” to open the server console. Next, type in:
“cheat gfi PrimalItemResource_Chitin 1 1 0”
Press enter, and you’ll have the resource in your inventory. Note that for this work, you need to be the admin of the server you’re playing on.
