Behemoth Gate — Detailed Guide
A metal gate for the largest tames
The Behemoth Gate protects a base while letting tamed dinosaurs pass in and out, in both ARK: Survival Evolved and ARK: Survival Ascended. The ASA description reads: "A large metal-plated concrete gate that can be used with a Behemoth Gateway to allow even the largest of creatures in or out." In ASE the in-game text simply calls it the metal tier behemoth gate. The ARK Wiki counts it as the second behemoth gate available and notes that all dinosaurs apart from the 
Titanosaur fit through it.
Fitting it into a gateway
The gate can only be placed inside a 
Behemoth Gateway. There it can be locked or unlocked, which keeps others out of the base while the owner and their dinosaurs still have a way through. Plan the space before building: the gate measures 5 walls across and 10 walls tall, while the frame of the gateway measures 7 across and 12 tall. The wiki warns that a spot with room for the gateway can still block the gate, a large stone archway being one example, and suggests testing the space with wooden walls before spending materials. Looking at the right wing opens the gate outwards from where you stand; looking at the left wing opens it inwards.
Engram and materials
The engram unlocks at level 57 for 15 engram points. The gate is crafted in a 
Smithy, and the wiki also lists the 
Argentavis Saddle and the 
Tek Replicator. One gate costs:
- 1500
Metal Ingot, or 
Scrap Metal Ingot in ASA - 350
Cementing Paste, or 
Achatina Paste in ASA
Our ASE record lists only Metal Ingot and Cementing Paste, in the same amounts. Each craft gives 27 XP.
Weight, loot and what can break it
A gate weighs 4 and up to 5 fit in one stack, so a full stack weighs 20. Our records list it on 9 maps and count 69 crate types that can contain it, among them the Aberration Red and Aberration Surface Yellow crates. As a metal structure it only takes damage from explosives, the 
Tek Rifle and Tek Saddles, Titans and bosses, the Titanosaur and the 
Arthropluera, Corrupted or Enraged Creatures, and the 
DodoRex.
