Sloped Tek Roof — Detailed Guide
An angled roof from the Tek category
The Sloped Tek Roof is a tilted roof piece among the Tek building parts of ARK: Survival Evolved and ARK: Survival Ascended. Its in-game text reads: "An inclined Tek roof. Slightly different angle than the ramp." It shelters what lies beneath it from the weather and adds insulation against both heat and cold.
Unlocking and crafting
The roof is unlocked through a Tekgram, which is a boss reward. The ARK Wiki names the 
Exo-Mek as a place to craft it. Each roof costs:
- 35
Metal Ingot (
Scrap Metal Ingot also works) - 10
Cementing Paste (or 
Achatina Paste) - 50
Element Shard (or 
Red Element Shard)
Crafting takes 90 seconds, or 1.5 minutes, and gives 25 XP. The piece was added in patch 255.0.
Placing it
Unlike the 
Tek Ceiling, this roof is slightly tilted, and it is paired with the Sloped Walls. Once the first piece is down, further roofs snap along its edge to form a row when there is space for them. A foundation or pillar close by has to support it. Apart from Signs and Billboards, nothing can be built on top of a sloped roof.
What can damage it
It counts as a Tek structure. According to the ARK Wiki, only these can harm it: explosives, the 
Tek Rifle, Tek Saddles, Titans, Bosses, the 
DodoRex, a 
Titanosaur, an 
Arthropluera, and Corrupted or Enraged Creatures.
Weight and loot
A roof weighs 4 and they stack to 100, so a full stack weighs 400. 20 crate types can contain one, including Genesis Blue, Genesis Cyan and Genesis Red on Genesis Part 2. Our records list it on 5 maps: The Island, Scorched Earth, Aberration, The Center and Valguero.
