Sloped Thatch Roof — Detailed Guide
Two names for one thatch roof piece
This tilted thatch roof is called the 
Sloped Thatch Roof in ARK: Survival Evolved and Thatch Roof, Ramp & Stairs in ARK: Survival Ascended. The ASA description reads: "An inclined thatched roof. Slightly different angle than the ramp." In ASE the description is shorter and simply names it a sloped thatch roof. The ARK Wiki calls it the most basic roof there is; like any roof it shelters what lies beneath from the weather, which helps insulation against both cold and heat.
Engram and recipe
The engram unlocks at level 5 and costs 3 engram points. The roof is put together in the survivor's own inventory from:
- 15
Thatch - 4
Wood or 
Fungal Wood - 10
Fiber
Each craft gives one roof and 1.35 XP. A single piece weighs 4 and up to 100 stack together, for a full-stack weight of 400.
Placing sloped roofs
Unlike the Thatch Roof, this piece is set at an incline and is used together with Sloped Walls. It needs a foundation or pillar close by for support. After the first one is down, further pieces snap along its edge so a row lines up, as long as there is space for them. Sloped roofs do not accept other structures on top; Signs and Billboards are the exceptions.
How tough it is
Thatch building pieces are weak and give little defence against creatures or other players. Anything apart from non-explosive ranged attacks can damage this roof. Its visual assets are shared with the Thatch Roof.
Maps and loot
Our records list it on 14 maps, from The Island and Scorched Earth to Genesis Part 2, Crystal Isles, Lost Island and Fjordur. 54 crate types can contain it, for example the Aberration Green and Aberration White crates on Aberration and Valguero and the Genesis Blue and Genesis Cyan crates on Genesis Part 2.
