Basic Augmented Kibble

A retired kibble from Extinction

In ARK: Survival Evolved, Basic Augmented Kibble counted as a Basic Kibble; it belonged to the Extinction expansion, and the wiki dates it to version 285.104. The ARK Wiki marks it as removed in v293.100: the removal reached PC with patch 293.100, Xbox with 784.13 and PlayStation with 533.14, and it can no longer be crafted in any way. Until v287.100 it carried the name Extra Small Advanced Kibble. The description read: "This pet food recipe has been carefully designed to give balanced nutrition to many smaller creatures. Includes plant fibers to help with digestion and egg to bind the mix. Humans have difficulty digesting this."

How it was used for taming

Kibble raises the taming meter faster than berries or meat and costs less taming effectiveness, which adds up to more bonus levels when the tame completes. On the ARK Wiki this kibble is listed for force-taming the Dodo, Parasaur, Dilophosaur, Phiomia and Kairuku, and for passively taming the Mesopithecus. For any other creature it was worth only 66% of regular meat and berries, and the wiki advises against using it there.

The recipe before v293.100

Up to that patch it was cooked in a Cooking Pot or an Industrial Cooker from:

• 1 Water
• 3 Fiber
• 5 Mejoberry
• 1 Cooked Meat
• 2 Citronal
• 1 Extra Small Egg
• 5 Fungal Wood

The wiki counts eggs such as the Dodo Egg, Dilo Egg, Kairuku Egg, Parasaur Egg and Vulture Egg as Extra Small. Our records give a crafting time of 30 seconds. One kibble weighed 0.1 and a stack held 100, so a full stack weighed 10, and it spoiled after 72 hours (3 days).
