Behemoth Gateway — Detailed Guide

A gateway for the largest creatures

The Behemoth Gateway is a metal building piece in ARK: Survival Evolved and ARK: Survival Ascended that houses a Behemoth Gate. The ASA description: "A large metal-plated concrete gateway, reinforced with obsidian polymer, that can be used with a Behemoth Gate to allow even the largest of creatures in or out." In ASE the text is shorter and simply calls it a massive metal gateway for large dinos. Gate and gateway together guard an area and keep creatures contained, and a locked gate restricts access while still letting you and your creatures through.

Size and placement

At 7 walls wide and 12 walls high, the opening lets every creature except the Titanosaur pass. The gateway can go straight onto the ground with no foundation. It does not snap to foundations or existing walls, only to fence foundations. To line the gate up on a foundation or ceiling, the wiki suggests placing a fence foundation on or under it, across a total width of 8 foundations; the gateway snaps centered on a single fence foundation, but 6 or 8 fence foundations across give an accurate fit. Neither Platform Saddles nor Rafts can carry it.

What can damage it

It counts as a metal structure. Only explosives, Titans, bosses, the DodoRex, a Titanosaur, the Arthropluera, Corrupted Creatures, Enraged Creatures, the Tek Rifle and Tek Saddles can damage it.

Crafting

The engram unlocks at level 57 for 28 engram points. A gateway is crafted in a Smithy or an Argentavis Saddle in 3 seconds, for 44 XP:

Each gateway weighs 4 and up to 5 stack together, for 20 per full stack. 93 crate types can contain one, among them Aberration Red and the Aberration Surface Red and Yellow crates. Our records list it on 9 maps.
