Well Bucket — Detailed Guide

A tap for your Water Well

The Well Bucket is a Primitive Plus structure for ARK: Survival Evolved. The game sums it up: "This bucket is used like a tap to gain access to a water well." Once it is in place you can drink from it, water Crop Plots through it, and fill Waterskins, Water Jars and Canteens by putting them into the bucket's inventory.

Where it goes

Place it directly on a Water Well, or on the open end of a pipe.

Building one

The engram unlocks at level 40 for 2 engram points. One bucket costs:

  • 10 Wood
  • 2 Iron Ingot (Primitive Plus)

Crafting takes 5 seconds and gives 7.25 XP. Each bucket weighs 4, and unplaced ones stack to 100.

How tough it is

The game treats the Well Bucket as a metal structure. Only explosives, the Tek Rifle, Tek Saddles, the Titanosaur, the Arthropluera, Corrupted and Enraged creatures, Titans, bosses and the DodoRex can damage it, so it rarely needs replacing once built.
