Lance — Detailed Guide
A jousting weapon for riders
The Lance is a melee weapon in ARK: Survival Evolved meant for fighting while mounted, and only then. Its game text is clear about that: "Can only be utilized when riding a mount." On foot it is useless. According to the ARK Wiki the Lance does no damage at all; its purpose is to unseat an enemy survivor, who falls off their mount when struck.
Ready position and blocking
- Primary fire: lowers the Lance into its ready position.
- Secondary fire: blocks attacks from an enemy Lance.
The wiki also notes that tamed 
Mantises are able to hold Lances.
Crafting the Lance
The engram unlocks at level 32 for 30 engram points. The weapon is built in a 
Smithy or on an 
Argentavis Saddle in 5 seconds, giving 1 XP, and the list of materials is long:
- 260
Metal Ingot (
Scrap Metal Ingot also works) - 120
Fiber - 100
Flint - 100
Obsidian - 70
Hide - 70
Pelt
Repairs take half of each amount: 130 Metal Ingot, 60 Fiber, 50 Flint, 50 Obsidian, 35 Hide and 35 Pelt.
Weight, durability and loot
A Lance weighs 20, does not stack and has 40 durability. Crafting is not the only way to get one: 286 crate types can contain it, among them Aberration Blue, Aberration Blue Bonus and the Aberration Dungeon crates in blue, purple, red and yellow. Our records list it on 14 maps, from The Island and Scorched Earth to Ragnarok and Fjordur.
