Chibi-Jerboa — Detailed Guide
A Jerboa chibi from the Manticore
The Chibi-Jerboa is a chibi-pet that, according to the ARK Wiki, was introduced in ARK: Survival Ascended. The wiki says it comes from defeating the
Manticore of Scorched Earth on Beta or Alpha, and asks readers not to confuse it with the
Chibi-Jerbunny or the
Chibi-Skeletal Jerboa. Its description, as the wiki gives it: "Earn XP from Alpha creature kills when equipped, to increase its level and earn additional max-levels for your Survivor!"
How the chibi gains levels
Chibi-pets serve mostly as cosmetics, with one lasting perk. Killing certain predators while the chibi is equipped gives it experience, and it can level up five times. Each of those level-ups permanently adds 1 to the maximum level of whichever survivor has it equipped at that moment, up to 5 extra levels. Kills that count include the
Alpha Raptor,
Alpha T-Rex,
Alpha Megalodon and
Alpha Karkinos, and the wiki's ASA list adds the
Astral Argentavis, Astral Deinosuchus, Alpha Palaeoctopus,
Alpha Hulking Revenant and
Enraged Lightning Rex.
Wearing it
In ASA the chibi goes into its own Chibi slot. It then appears at the survivor's front-left, moving and turning with them; it sits in the survivor's lap during rides and stays nearby while they sleep in a bed. A chibi counts as an item rather than an unlockable skin: it drops with the inventory on death and is lost for good if the death cache is not retrieved.
Weight and map
It weighs 0 and stacks to 1, and our records list it on Scorched Earth.
