Alpha Karkinos Claw — Detailed Guide

A claw taken from an Alpha Karkinos

A dead Alpha Karkinos carries this claw, a tribute item in ARK: Survival Evolved and ARK: Survival Ascended. The in-game text reads: "This trophy proves your worth as a hunter." The ARK Wiki says it was introduced with Aberration. Patch 275.0 added it.

Collecting it from the body

Open the inventory of the dead Alpha Karkinos and take the claw before you harvest the body for meat and hide. If the body is harvested first, or another predator eats it, the claw ends up in a bag on the ground instead. In our loot records one entry, named Alpha Karkinos, can contain it.

Using the claw

You need 1 claw to enter the Aberration Portal and face Rockwell on Alpha difficulty. In both games the claw goes into 1 recipe, Generate Aberration (Alpha) Portal, at 1 per craft. In ASE it can also start an Ascendant Rift through a Rift Generator, the wiki notes.

Weight and stack

A claw weighs 0.5 and they stack to 100, so a full stack weighs 50.
