Air Jar

Air you can carry under water

An Air Jar stores air that a survivor can use under water. Our records list it for ARK: Survival Ascended, and the ARK Wiki gives Aquatica as its DLC. In-game it reads: "Oxygenates the surrounding water when used, but is also a bit heavy." Each jar weighs 5 and has a stack size of 1.

Engram and crafting

The engram becomes available at level 3 for 6 engram points. A jar is made in the survivor's inventory, grants 3.25 crafting XP and needs:

• 7 Cementing Paste or Achatina Paste
• 5 Fish Scale
• 2 Crystal or Primal Crystal

Filling and using a jar

There are two ways to fill it with air: put it into a wild or planted Plant Species W, or use it while standing on land, the same way Water Jars are filled. Used under water, it applies the Air Container status effect for 60 seconds. That effect adds 100 Oxygen at once and then keeps raising Oxygen by about 10 per second.

A full jar holds 500 Oxygen and covers 5 uses before it needs refilling. Every use takes 100 of that 500, even when the player was short by less than 100 at that moment; the ARK Wiki compares this with water containers such as the Canteen.

An odd unlock level

The wiki suspects a mix-up here: the Air Jar resembles the Water Jar, yet its unlock level matches the Waterskin's, and the Air Bladder in turn unlocks at the Water Jar's level.
