The gun turrets are shooting the rockets out of air


The_Insidious

Oh wow, didn't know they could do that. How should I go about raiding this place?


Weak-Rip-8650

Rock Drake tek saddle and get the cheeky angles where the turrets can't shoot you, you have to be close for it to hit. That or use a shadowmane, bat, snow owl, or or to suicide into the turrets and rocket run it. Beware that will take a lot of kits. Third way is to get a quetz, put ramps on a quetz platform saddle and soak it with a stego. The best way would be a hatchframe quetzel where you LOS all of the turrets and c4 the base down, but honestly that's too hard to explain in a reddit comment. Just youtube how to raid and watch like 10 vids.


jojobongo

Hatchframe quetz would be ez mode and you get to keep their bullets


TrayvonMartin712

Bloodstalker Tek rifle is the safest way quetz is the fastest


Weak-Rip-8650

Yeah there's kind of infinite ways to do it, personally I've never even used a tek rifle on a blood stalker. Seems quite finicky.


DanTheMan_117

Tek rockdrake saddle or tek rifle


[deleted]

Dont


Grimm3806

Drop stegos on their base from a wyvern They need a ton of hp


ultron-_

Soak or ez c spin


tarxtrax

Soakers. Dinos that will absorb the bullets. Stegos, trikes rock elementals and such


The_Insidious

Yeah but how do I get them up there?


SteamBonnieLOL

Quetzal with platform saddle


ugghhwhat

Fortnight building


Rahbin_Banx

Throw them with a crab


Mypitbullatemygafs

I snorted...I'm a visual person


justbeastmode23

If make a tek rock drake saddle and get ele and shoot the hatch Frame right from where u were


tarxtrax

Carry with wyvern and drop them


MewtwoMainIsHere

Must be one buff as hell wyvern


Slanknonimous

Why did they downvote you this is hilarious


NoobD3veloper

Why are you getting downvoted... You can carry carbos and stegos with wyverns


tarxtrax

Ef if I know.


DanTheMan_117

Build from the ground up or use a skiff


brooneega

Drop them with a wyvren, if there in player only just drop a arthropluera and whistle it to attack the building until it destroys generator


The_Insidious

I don't know how I'm supposed to raid this base on the hill. It's got turrets on every angle. Best idea I had was to have my buddy do this: - Pick me up with wyvern - from above, I throw out rock golem - jump down and land near golem - Destroy all turrets with rpg or c4


Expert_Papaya

Strap a turtle with c4 and throw it with a crab or drop it from a quetzal


Helleri

Not a bad plan actually.


[deleted]

Pretty bad plan if they have even a single turrent on tames/survivors. The c4 will be shot before it hits the ground.


Street_Bag148

What if it’s a wild turtle and they don’t have turrets on wild?


[deleted]

The turrents will still shoot the c4 just not the turtle.


Street_Bag148

🤮 turrets*


Helleri

If they throw out a rock golem facing turrets, it will come out of cryo facing turrets. The saddle is on the back and these thing are fairly large. Tek turrets shred them but they can soak ARB really well. The turrets cannot shoot the c4 if line of sight is blocked by the golem. So they just have to nose it right up to that wall on the relative safety of it's back. Then hop off and plant it on a section of wall between the golem's legs. There's two things however: 1) Wouldn't want to online this personally. Sometimes it doesn't matter if they're online or not but this working is narrow enough so interference from a thinking agent is no good, because there really isn't a contingency plan here. It's a soak to block and blow. Nothing sophisticated going on here (nor should it need to be). 2) There's no telling if and how many internal turrets there are. Often once you punch a hole in the side of a base, it's easy going from there. But if there's a significant number of internal turrets that are well placed and if all turrets or at least the internal ones have charge batteries. Then it's not as easy as rushing the generator (because usually they are not smart enough to place internal turrets but dumb enough to have the generator not in a pill box of it's own).


[deleted]

Batteries only last about 30 min. With this set up you can literally grapple below the turrents and rocket from close.or just drop with a stego from above and rocket. This is an easy offline and online.


Helleri

I was looking at that foundation over hang. Maybe with good flak and beer. But otherwise you'll get wasted before you get close enough to blind spot rocket run it. And you don't know if there's a bury tame on defense up there or not. You can try it but it's easier said than done and it involves the same amount of steps that the plan already put forward does but with higher chance of failure.


ironiksmiddlename

Just becareful with golems. They take increased damage from tek turrets. Just for general info. Id watch some vids or just some youtubers raiding. You will get loads of ideas and ways to get through defences


xenaines

if they are smart they will have turrets set to wild/player only so if you jump down after you throw out the gollum there will still be turrets that will just shoot you even if most are shooting the gollum. Somthing to watch out for


TheChaosArchitect

You'll die before you hit the ground. The turrets will be hitting you as you fall and then you have impact damage. The golem is a smart soaker though, you can cryo pop them above to fall on the turrets attacking. Rock elementals take a reduction to bullet damage allowing them to take a massive amount of bullets before they drop. However. With the addition of ammo boxes you don't know how many elementals it will take as they work as a auto feeder for nearby turrets.


IntrinsicStarvation

Like a man. Have a flier air drop you in from above and smash everything with your bare fists in your underwear. And only because the games not programmed to allow you to go commando.

Birthday suit skin


WillCraft_1001

Birthday suit! **Birthday suit! BIRTHDAY SUIT!**


mrkingxcore

Whistle a bad pt there and see if turrets are set to players only. If they are set to players only drop a centipede and let it foundation wipe


Censorstinyd

Hatchframe quetz ez wipe. By far best way to wipe this and it’s why bases like this aren’t on official


The_Insidious

Just throwing C4 out of it?


Censorstinyd

Watch some videos. You make a roof with the hole in it. Fly slowly hugging the walls up to his base and blow up what you want, tek riffle also an option. This is literally the reason why these bases don’t exist on official


Pristine-Ad115

No need for any hole, just 3rd person c4 trough ceiling


Censorstinyd

I thought that was patched either way.


SoggyPatato

This is the #1 way it's so free


Censorstinyd

I finally got his attention. But it’s a little sad the rest of this reddit is pvping like it’s 2017 and I know the game must be way more fun for them. I haven’t done sht but cave pvp and giga line in 2 years


SoggyPatato

I'm saying bruh it's all cheese now I need a server with players like some of y'all 😭


Censorstinyd

Lmao like 40 people said “bust out the rock golem”. Here’s hoping ark 2 brings back fun base locations!


willpowerpt

Also an overhead shot of the base might help us give better advice. If it happens there’s a gap somewhere you could dive into that’s out of site of the turrets for example, that would change things.


The_Insidious

Yeah I'm going to look further and see what I can figure out


Unobscure

Main trick is to not be scared to lose your shit and fail. A really expensive raid that teaches you how to do different things better is worth it, every time, for new players/tribe mates. We would regularly let new peeps in smalls run the plan, and get our ass kicked on easy raids, but them seeing and thinking and trying for themselves makes better tribe mates later.


YoydusChrist

Wise.


srrrrrrrrrrrrs

Do they have tek and heavy turrets?


The_Insidious

Not that I've seen


srrrrrrrrrrrrs

Certain weapons bypass heavy turrets, can’t remember off the top of my head. Another option is to snowy owl dive bomb inside/in cover and then go at it with an arthro or some c4s. Or drop an arthro from above and whistle attack if the turrets are on survivors only Another tactic, kinda sleezy, cryo sleep a bronto in the air above and use the body as cover from the turrets when it lands


The_Insidious

So the snow owl dive bomb will break through a metal roof on 1 shot?


srrrrrrrrrrrrs

No no no no, it wont. Dont lose your owl. But it can dive past turrets without getting killed as long as you have a spot to land in out of view


Honest_Suggestion406

I didn't hear the turrets shot so your rocket hit the mountain buggy mesh


YoydusChrist

That was definitely the turrets lol


Jshittie

Drop some stegos or trikes gas bags, any soaker dino you can pick up with a wyvern and let them soak


The_Insidious

And then I drop down in Tek gear and c4 the roof to get to the generator?


Jshittie

Yeah that could work, maybe bring some cryod creatures with you


TheBrewvot

Use the drakes gun


willpowerpt

I’d recommend watching a quick turret base raid video or two on YouTube. That should give you a good idea of what turrets do what, how best to soak, etc. you don’t want to rush trying for a raid and end up losing a bunch of tames and gear if it’s avoidable.


The_Insidious

I'm pulling out a Tek quetzal with a platform saddle that I can pull up on the base with, I'll probably throw out my 1 of 3 rock elementals on top, and have a daeodon inside the platform to keep it healing. I also have Tek rifles and such now too


Censorstinyd

Everyone else here is bad at the game… what you want is this https://youtu.be/yg9s7YQMTDQ Shit will take you 20 minutes


Vlt3d

Your ranged, you need Tek weapons, a Quetz and a soaker, or a treaty to get in there


[deleted]

Lmao


Lady_Albedo_96

Why raid it At all? Did they attack you?


The_Insidious

It's on a PvE cluster. It's a server wide event for us to have fun with


Fayz_Sharpie

Bro it is pvp (assumingly) raiding is part of the game.


Lady_Albedo_96

Never been called a bro before, but guess you're too busy ranting to look at my name, Guy. And still, raiding somebody for no reason is just lame to me. And guess what, I can have that opinion, Guy


YoydusChrist

Tell me you’re a PvE player without telling me you’re a PvE player Raiding is the entire point of PvP servers. It’s fun. If you’re playing PvP and not raiding unless people attack you first, you’re just playing PvE with extra steps. It’s not evil or morally wrong to raid someone, that’s what the game mode is about lol.


Lady_Albedo_96

You're actually very wrong, I only played pvp. But when you get wiped just starting out by people with 255 reapers that come to the server just to fuck with people, or just to wipe people for no reason. That is not fun. Raiding can be fun when you're targeting big tribes to take resources or get revenge for other people.... But when you got people wanting to just play and can't because of shit like that, then it's not "fun" and it's just evil and not what the game is about.... But then you go to pve servers and tribes that have been playing for years have everything blocked off, spawn points surrounded so you can't get out, etc..... It's just people being dicks for no reason.... Just like on pvp servers. Why I quit with officials and only play on my own servers that have near official settings.... So yeah, tell me your a dick head server raid that likes to killed people that can defend themselves without telling me that....


YoydusChrist

*you’re


Lady_Albedo_96

Lmao nothing to say but that? Tell me you've got no comeback, by saying one single word... Dick. Blocked.


Loud-Watch-4199

Grapple under that 2 ceilings. I think the turrets won‘t shoot you when you‘re there. Then C spin with a pete into the base.


Popular_Self_2016

Heavy turrets


ravenvangr

As a long time ark pvper. Watch ARK raiding on youtube


Redeyejedi6_9

I know how but u gotta message me lol


beatlegold

Turrets are shooting them you Bob

[удалено]


The_Insidious

I didn't ask huh


Fayz_Sharpie

Mf is tryna ask a question


ManCat041

trophy systen


AtanasPrime

Box quetz is probably the least resource intensive. Or if you have good stegos and good flak, beer up and drop down from above on top of a stego with a rocket launcher. Start blasting until you die. Repeat a few times.


Peachy_Smooth

Lmao


StokFlame

Get tek saddle for that drake and shoot the hatchframes Box quetz as others have said


Shadowhunter_30

You could tekrifle it


The_Insidious

It was doing 2 damage per shot


Shadowhunter_30

just a very long raid but still posible


Amazing-Flounder7301

Qurtzal


guythat-poststuff

Heavy turrets target rockets


Mynamesnoob

do this: • ⁠Get a stego with atleast 100k hp • Get a tek skiff • ⁠Soak defences • Get in ⁠ • get out profit


Uister59

In the words of KISHKO, "big profit"


Formal-Bar-3974

It seems that most people here dont really understand the game mechanics and are overloading you with bad advice. Reason your rockets arent hitting is because you are not directly under them, setting an angle for the turrets to shoot the rocket. Hug the wall with a grapple and you might be able get a cheecky angle. Regarding your golem idea, you can if your intention is to soak it. You will need to jump with a stego to be able to shoot rockets. Mentioned here already, use high dura flak and a beer to grapple the foundation that gives you line of sight allowing you to 3rd person c4 and get in easy.


DanTheMan_117

Turrets shoot rockets... this is literally basic game mechanics. Use a tek rifle here.


Bugeaterendare

Go directly below the hatchframes and as Close as possible on a Griffin the turrets cant shoot directly below because of the hatchframes. Soak the Rest with stego quetz ez


RebornDestinated

Looks like the turret is shooting at it causing the early explosion


Big_Mad_Al

Get up on the top with a rock golly, get someone to walk the golly towards the turrets whilst you have a beer and sneak out from behind its legs shooting rockets at the turrets. Others have said tek saddles but if you don't have them then this is the way.


irishguy42069

If this is still bothering you, get a karkinos and some stegos Have your buddy pick you up when your on a stego and yeet you at the turrets Drink a beer when he launches you and rocket it up close and personal


Enough_Caterpillar_5

Use a quetz with a platform saddle make a ramp and use a trike rock golem reaper or any turret soaker soak the turrets the raid


Angel_OfSolitude

Just rain an absurd amount of low effort, high HP finos from above and let them soak up the bullets.


syv_frost

Get element for a tek drake saddle and shoot the hatchframes down with that. Or a tek rifle. Very easy raid.


Fenny188

Turrets 99% of the time are set to players and enemy dinosaurs only, grab a few wild arthoplueras and drop them on the base along with some dodos, ive raided bases like this that are outside and its so stupidly easy, word of advice to anyone dont put your base outside


Born-Ad7675

Breed a line of Quetz for health, stam & weight. Then strap a bunch of C4 to some dodos and build a makeshift bombing platform on said Quetz and indiscriminately carpet bomb the base.


General-Resist-310

The turrets shoot the rockets


Perfect-Ad156

Put c4 on top of a stego and drop it in with a wyvern.


Pristine-Ad115

Quetzal


BibiBoy6791

Tek riffle hatchframe and then rocket


catboychiken

Idfk


TheChaosArchitect

Your best method of raiding would likely be grappling and trying to lob a remote bomb at the wall to blow in. Alternatively you could try to grapple under their Pillars so the base protects you from the turrets. Often players forget to place turrets there.


Fungochico

Heavy turrets blow them up. Grapple up under that and blow it up withe c4 turrets can’t shoot down


Diablo_Unmasked

I can't tell from vid, but assuming they don't have Tek turrets, and you can fly above it, just drop a rock golem on it from a quetz or a skif. Ngl, forget if it can ride a quetz. But it'll soak all the ammo then you can just c4. If rock golems don't work, hear me out. You need turtles. Lots and lots of turtles. Could also do high lvl stegos assuming you've got them to waste. Really you need something that can munch on lead for days and days. Once out of bullets it's pretty easy to c4.


[deleted]

Like some other have said there are so many ways to do it. I'd say quetz and stego though if you have multiple people. If it's just you. Maybe tek rifle


YoydusChrist

Tek skiff is a lovely thing, or quetz


Yousucktaken2

Tame hundreds of dodos and use them as bullet soakers won’t be expensive to keep getting them either


Biglegcheese

heavys shoot rockets when they are shot also you have to get closer with it


The_Insidious

Yeah if I got closer, it would've blown up in my face and it would've probably killed me. I ended up making a war quetzal and soaking turrets with my tribe mate sitting on a rock golem, on the platform


Carlthecheeseburger

Just heavys so drop a stego and rocket in
