A complete current mod list with descriptions is coming to this page.
TRANSFERS & MAP ROTATION
The Netherverse uses multiple connected ARK maps, with permanent home maps supported by additional rotating maps.
Ragnarok is our main permanent map and the recommended starting point for every new player. Build your primary base and establish your main home here.
Fjordur is planned to join Ragnarok as another permanent cluster map once it is added to the server.
Additional maps may rotate in and out so the cluster can offer different areas, creatures and progression without permanently running every ARK map at once. We have extenction, lost colony, Astraeos in current rotation and will allow for requested rotations. We will be working on the policy for map rotations, always checkback here or discord for more info!
The Live Maps panel at the top of this page always shows which maps are currently running along with their current connection addresses.
SERVER RULES
We're here to play ARK, build ridiculous things and have a good time.
