Well oldie I not sure what your asking for his here's seems your sending us to hell and back hopefully if we can make it back. I will see if k can get on and join you. Why are we going there tho is it just for a killing spree to get us ready for the giga? Or is there another reason ?

But ... there's a cave on the island (http://ark.gamepedia.com/North_East_Cave) :g:

How about we build a quick structure around the entrance for future exploration parties?

Building a cave outpost sounds good OB.

We can come prepared with some foundations, walls, a bed, etc...


"Notes
This can be considered the hardest cave of the game, so a large quantity of food and medical brews are recommended."

:D

Hmm I only have either a Trike or a Parasaur available to ride. Out of those the Para is a lot faster so I can run away better.
The only medicine I have is Narcos, they might be suitable so I don't feel the pain.

I think this event is evolving away from a frenetic full frontal assault towards a more considered base-camp construction for future cave exploration.

This could be achieved by using my boat to transfer the necessary elements to the island using just birds to ferry the builders across and, when necessary, lift them away from danger. There's a bed on the boat for the inevitable :D

We will do the assault another time as that sounds like good fun plus delaying allows people more time to prepare.

I'm sure you can get picked up en route. If it's going to be another time and hopefully when I'm on I'll pick you up or someone else will I'm sure.

We will meet just opposite Herbivore Island (bottom-right of map).

When we're all assembled we'll take the raft up to Carnivore Island (top-right of map).

We'll stop off at Pen's for a full English and Lib's to poo on his front lawn.

If it's smart I might bring along my spino for extra protection on the ground and to get her some more levels, I think we might need the extra help down there and it should keep the car is off people's backs

I think we brought too many teeth.

The island was almost deserted, and the only challenge came from running into the cave attracting a swarm of bats, dying, and then running in again naked.
