Sulfur — Detailed Guide

A resource from Scorched Earth

Sulfur is a resource in ARK: Survival Evolved and ARK: Survival Ascended that was introduced with Scorched Earth. Its in-game text: "Used to craft distinct kind of ammunition. Can be found in the Caves". Beyond Scorched Earth, the ARK Wiki lists it on Valguero, Fjordur, Lost Island, Crystal Isles, Ragnarok, Extinction, Genesis: Part 2 and Genesis: Part 1.

Mining and other sources

According to the wiki it comes from mining small rocks streaked with yellow, which usually sit high up in the mountains. Killing a Rock Elemental, a Wyvern or a Magmasaur also yields Sulfur. Loot is a third route: our records count 57 crate types that can contain it, for example Genesis Blue and Astral Pulmonoscorpius Royalty.

Recipes and creatures that use it

Our ASE records list 3 recipes that take it: Preserving Salt (1), Propellant (1) and the Flamethrower (10). In ASA the list has 2: Propellant (1) and the Cursed Flamethrower (10). The ARK Wiki adds some uses with creatures:

  • it can be used to tame a Rock Elemental;
  • a tamed Phoenix eats it;
  • a baby Magmasaur can take it as baby food in place of Ambergris.

Weight and version

A unit weighs 0.05 and stacks to 100, so a full stack weighs 5. The ARK Wiki dates it to version 246.0.
