Mek Backpack — Detailed Guide

Equipment for the Mek

The Mek Backpack is an armor-category item from the Extinction DLC, with records in both ARK: Survival Evolved and ARK: Survival Ascended. It is equipment for the Mek, and its in-game text gives the rule to remember: "Equip a Mek with this to enhance it. Unequipping reduces durability."

Recipe and crafting time

A single craft makes one backpack. It takes these materials, listed from the largest amount to the smallest:

The craft takes 10 seconds and gives 26.8 XP.

Weight, armor and repairs

The backpack weighs 200. With a stack size of 1 it never shares an inventory slot, and 200 is also the weight of a full stack.

It has an armor rating of 25 and 5000 durability. That durability is the value the description warns about: taking the backpack off the Mek reduces it.

Repairing the backpack costs, among other things, 85 Hide, 100 Fungal Wood and 112.5 Fiber.
