Generic Resource — Detailed Guide

An item that normal play does not hand out

Generic Resource has rows for ARK: Survival Evolved and ARK: Survival Ascended in our database, but the ARK Wiki describes it as an item that sits in the game files without being obtainable through normal gameplay. Its in-game description is a single line: "It's a generic resource!"

Reports of it turning up

  • PS4: following the v533.14 server release, players reported catching it on a fishing line while the Ark: Love Evolved 5 event was running.
  • Xbox: on v797.24, a fishing pole baited with honey and loaded with one more honey gives back one honey plus a Generic Resource.

Texture and inventory values

The wiki notes that, as of 3-25-2023, the PC version showed it with no texture. A long time ago it did have one, shown in a purple and black palette, but that texture has since gone from the game files, which the wiki reads as a sign that it was removed on purpose. In the inventory it weighs 0.05 and stacks to 100, so a full stack weighs 5.
