Chibi-Moschops

Chibi-Moschops as a pocket pet

Chibi-Moschops is a miniature, mostly cosmetic chibi-pet for ARK: Survival Evolved and ARK: Survival Ascended. The ARK Wiki ties it to ARK: Winter Wonderland 4 and says it has been available in every event since, and the version that added it is 304.1. Its description is about levels: "Earn XP from Alpha creature kills when equipped, to increase its level and earn additional max-levels for your Survivor!"

How the pet levels up

Certain predators give the pet experience when a survivor with it equipped kills them. Five level-ups are possible, and each permanently lifts the cap of that survivor by 1 level, up to 5 extra. Among the counted kills are the Alpha Skeletal Rex, Alpha Surface Reaper King, Alpha Blood Crystal Wyvern and Alpha Tusoteuthis. ASA adds creatures like the Astral Mammoth and Alpha Palaeoctopus; ASE on Steam adds the Abyssal Alpha T-Rex and Alpha Malleocephalus, for example.

Equipping it

The pet uses the off-hand slot in ASE and a dedicated Chibi slot in ASA. In a Tek Sleeping Pod it faces upward at the survivor's right side. It is an ordinary item, not an unlocked skin, and it drops on death along with the rest of the inventory.
