Condensed Gas — Detailed Guide

Hardened gas from Extinction

Condensed Gas is a resource in ARK: Survival Evolved and ARK: Survival Ascended, described in-game as "A highly concentrated and hardened gas deposit. This could be refined back into it's gaseous form." The ARK Wiki says it was introduced in Extinction, and it also turns up on Fjordur, Genesis: Part 2 and Genesis: Part 1. It is a separate item from the Congealed Gas Ball, which is what refining turns it into.

Where to gather it

The wiki names the yellow rocks of the Sulfur Fields as a place to harvest it. A Metal Hatchet, a Doedicurus or a Rock Elemental collects it most efficiently, and the wiki notes that, among creatures, those two seem the most efficient. On Fjordur, the Beiygjaheimr cave has gray rocks that yield it, while on Genesis: Part 2 it comes from loot crates. Our records count 44 crate types that can contain it, among them the Genesis Blue, Genesis Cyan, Genesis Green and Genesis Orange crates.

Refining it into gas balls

Heated in a Refining Forge or an Industrial Forge, each piece turns into one Congealed Gas Ball within a few seconds. This is also the one recipe our records list for it in each game: a Congealed Gas Ball takes 1 Condensed Gas.

Weight

One piece weighs 1, and a stack holds 100, so a full stack also weighs 100.
