Lesser Cannibalizing (Gun Trait) — Detailed Guide

Firing without ammo

Lesser Cannibalizing (Gun Trait) is a weapon trait for ARK: Survival Ascended that comes with the Wasteland DLC rather than the base game. Its in-game description opens with "This weapon can still be fired when it has no ammo." According to the same text, every shot deals durability damage to the weapon, equal to MaxDurability / 50% of AmmoCount.

Where the trait is applied

The description also says the trait must be applied in a Makeshift Megalab. The item has a stack size of 1, and our records give it a crafting time of 15 seconds.

Loot crates and the Moderate trait

Our records list 23 loot crates that can contain it. Among them are the Armadoggo Crate, found on Extinction and Astraeos, the Astraeos Orbital crates in Easy, Medium and Hard, and the Extinction Orbital Easy and Hard crates.

It is also an ingredient in one recipe: Moderate Cannibalizing (Gun Trait) takes 10 of these.
