Cursed Sword — Detailed Guide

A sword from Lost Colony

The Cursed Sword is a weapon from the Lost Colony DLC for ARK: Survival Ascended, and our records list it on the Lost Colony map. Its in-game description reads: "The undisputed ruler of short-range combat. Needs a hotter flame to be forged." Our database ties it to a Halloween event drop on Lost Colony.

Recipe and crafting

One sword takes:

Crafting takes 5 seconds and gives 6.6 XP, and each craft yields one sword. The sword weighs 5 and does not stack, so every sword fills its own inventory slot.

Crates that can hold it

Our records count 10 crate types that can contain the Cursed Sword. Examples include the Outpost: Gladiator's Keep crates in Easy, Medium and Hard and the Outpost: Lost Resource Cache Easy and Hard crates, all on Lost Colony. The Neophyte crate is on the list as well, and our records tie that crate to a wider set of maps, from The Island and Scorched Earth to Astraeos and Valguero.
