Federation Exo Leggings

Tek leggings with a superspeed dash

Federation Exo-leggings are the leg piece of the Federation Exo Armor set from the Genesis: Part 2 DLC, with rows in our records for ARK: Survival Ascended and ARK: Survival Evolved; ASE spells the name Federation Exo Leggings. In ASE the game calls them "Highly advanced leggings that allow for powerful forward movement." and adds that wearing them requires learning their Tekgram. Our ASA record carries a different description: there the item skins the look of leggings or pants into a Terran Federation tek-reinforced exo-pants design.

Superspeed and what it breaks

The ARK Wiki explains their ability: while wearing the leggings, hold the Melee keybind (Ctrl) and the wearer switches into superspeed, rushing forward very fast. Some points about this mode:

• Trees and rocks in the path are smashed and run through, but they yield no materials.
• The wearer can sprint over the surface of water.
• The speed reached does not depend on the player's movement speed stat.
• Bases built from thatch or wood can be broken by the dash.
• A survivor who is too heavy to move can still creep forward slowly by holding the same key.

Recipe, armor and weight

Our records list a recipe of 450 Metal Ingot, 120 Polymer, 120 Crystal, 55 Black Pearl and 20 Element, with 7.1 XP per craft. In ASE the craft takes 5 seconds. Our records also give an armor rating of 20 and 300 durability. The ARK Wiki puts the weight at 6 and the stack size at 1.
