About Gaia

Gaia is the current release of the Gaia overhaul for ARK: Survival Evolved. It keeps balance close to vanilla and follows your server settings, so it fits both PvE and PvP servers that want a lot of new content without a big jump in difficulty.

Adds more than 450 creatures, over 400 items, resources and pieces of gear, and more than 40 custom structures.
Not a core mod: it does not remap or overwrite anything, so its place in the mod list does not matter.
Runs on any map that uses vanilla spawners and can be combined with most other mods.
Gear includes reusable items, tranquilizer bolas, slowing frost arrows, a larger canteen and a placeable well that needs no water vein.

Do not run it together with the original Gaia 1 mod.

About Gaia

This is the latest official release of the Gaia mods.

Gaia is considered a vanilla-balanced overhaul mod that consists of:

450+ creatures
400+ items/resources/equipment.
40+ custom structures

Gaia is not a core mod therefore it can be first or last in your mod list as it does not remap or overwrite anything.

It follows your server settings and can be customised massively.

So join us in this amazing experience and try Gaia out for yourself! I mean who wouldn’t want a badass Tomahawk that has special abilities?! Or reusable items?! Nothing like having your grappling line snap when trying to ninja yourself out of the jaws of a hungry Rex… or running out of bolas trying to keep a speedy Heavenly Tapejara at bay. We even provide you with tranq-bolas.

If that’s not your style, then you can always use frost arrows that explode upon impact and slow your enemies down by 75%. After all that excitement and running about it’s annoying having to constantly find a water source to refill your limited slot canteen…but, not with the Gaia Canteen that stores 10x the water! If that runs out, you can use a magical well that you don’t need a water vein for and can be placed anywhere to provide irrigation.

Gaia is ideal for all servers, you don’t have to have it load in first. It can be run on any map that uses vanilla spawners. PvP? PvE? We cater to both styles. Gaia is balanced and can be paired with most mods.

Warning

Do not run this mod alongside the original Gaia 1 mod as this is the latest release of Gaia and has been expanded on.
