Corrosive Ship Cannonball — Detailed Guide
Acid rounds for ships
The Corrosive Ship Cannonball is ship ammunition in ARK: Survival Ascended. It came with Tides of Fortune, an adventure pack belonging to the Bob's True Tales DLC, and the ARK Wiki names the
Sloop, Galleon,
Brigantine and Trireme as the ships it is for. The game describes it like this: "This Ship-projectile contains acidic slime. Deals moderate damage to targets and corrodes their armor, causing them to take additional damage for a short duration."
What the corrosion really does
Despite the wording about armor, the wiki explains that a hit applies a damage multiplier instead: the target takes 25% more damage. The wiki infobox links the item to Astraeos as well as Tides of Fortune, and the wiki adds that learning its engram, crafting it and using it all depend on having that DLC. It records the item as added in version 89.24.
Crafting the cannonball
The engram opens at level 58 for 5 engram points. The wiki lists the
Smithy and the
Argentavis Saddle as crafting places. Each cannonball takes:
- 80
Metal Ingot or
Scrap Metal Ingot - 30
Gunpowder - 20
Cementing Paste or
Achatina Paste - 10
Narcotic
A craft lasts 1 second and gives 0.4 XP.
Weight on board
Each cannonball weighs 20. They stack to 100, and a full stack weighs 2000.
