1800 Metal Run, Rock Elemental Ambush Escape - ARK Survival Ascended - Scorched Earth (EP353)

In Episode 353 of my Ark Survival Ascended solo PVE journey on ARK Survival Ascended Scorched Earth, I start the episode by checking in on my newly upgraded Thylacoleo and asking for your advice on where to place its remaining stat points. I want it perfectly tuned for future cave runs and artifact hunting, so your input really matters. After that, I take my Ankylosaurus out for a serious metal farming run. The first few locations do not deliver what I was hoping for, so I push further north in search of better rock formations. Eventually I strike another small metal vein and begin harvesting, only for things to take a sudden turn. A Rock Elemental emerges from hiding and charges in. I quickly dismount and retreat to avoid getting crushed while my Argentavis engages it in mid fight. My Anky also gets a few hits in before I manage to call it back and escape down a cliff just in time. Once things settle, I regroup with my Argy, pick up my Anky, and relocate to a safer area to continue gathering. By the end of the run, my Ankylosaurus has collected around 1800 metal, a strong haul for future progression. I head back to base and drop everything into the Industrial Forge to begin smelting into ingots, wrapping up the episode. If you enjoy relaxed survival progression with unexpected chaos, feel free to like, comment, and subscribe. Let me know where you would place those Thyla stat points as well. ☕ Support the channel: https://www.buymeacoffee.com/oldmansp...
