Gathering, taming, and XP multipliers are common ARK server settings. They are stored in GameUserSettings.ini under the [ServerSettings] section.
Common multiplier settings
| Setting | What it changes |
|---|---|
HarvestAmountMultiplier | How many resources players receive when harvesting. 2.0 means 2x gathering. |
TamingSpeedMultiplier | How quickly creatures tame. Higher values make taming faster. |
XPMultiplier | How quickly players and creatures gain XP. |
Edit GameUserSettings.ini
- Open your ARK server in the control panel.
- Stop the server before editing configuration files.
- Click Configuration Files.
- Open GameUserSettings.ini with the config editor or text editor.
- Find the
[ServerSettings]section. - Add or update the multiplier values you want.
- Save the file, then start the server again.
Example:
[ServerSettings]
HarvestAmountMultiplier=2.0
TamingSpeedMultiplier=3.0
XPMultiplier=2.0If the values do not apply
Confirm the settings are in [ServerSettings], then restart the server again. Use decimal values and avoid very large numbers until you have tested them, as extreme multipliers can make progression or taming behave badly.
