Artifact of the Crag

One of three Scorched Earth artifacts

The Artifact of the Crag is an artifact in ARK: Survival Evolved and ARK: Survival Ascended. The ARK Wiki names three artifacts that came with Scorched Earth: this one, the Artifact of the Destroyer and the Artifact of the Gatekeeper. In the game it is described like this: "Found within the depths of the Scorched Earth. Only one of these may be carried at a time by an organism."

Where the Crag artifact lies

On Scorched Earth the wiki places it in the Grave of the Tyrants. Valguero keeps it in the Boreal Forest, and on Crystal Isles it sits in Wander's Hope. The wiki also names Ragnarok among its maps, and our records also list Astraeos. After it is taken, the wiki gives a respawn time of 3 minutes and 15 seconds when playing on servers, and 30 minutes in singleplayer. Our database also holds one loot entry that can contain it, Scorched Artifact Crag.

Portals that call for the Crag

Every recipe that uses it takes a single artifact, but the lists are not the same in the two games. Our records count 5 in ASA: Generate Scorched Earth Portal, Generate Grendel (Alpha) Portal, and Generate Manticore (Alpha) Portal along with its Beta and Gamma versions. ASE has 6: the same Scorched Earth portal and the three Manticore portals, plus Generate Crystal Wyvern Queen (Alpha) Portal and Portal to the Guardian's Sanctuary (Alpha).

Weight

The artifact weighs 5, and a stack holds only 1.
