King of the Hill

Tomorrow marks the launch of our first experimental server in ARK Mobile, King of the Hill. Launching in all 3 regions, these PvP Hard servers will go live at staggered times on Wednesday, May 15th. 

Just as the name sounds, you are tasked with becoming King of the ultimate Hill on the Island - the Volcano. As soon as the server goes live, you have exactly two weeks to become the Alpha Tribe and own the Volcano. At the specified end time on Wednesday, May 29th the winners will be determined, and then all structures & tames will be subsequently wiped from the Island.

Each member of the winning tribe will be awarded early access to an upcoming TEK Blueprint alongside a stack of 100x Eery Element, and the tribe owner will be granted a complimentary 12-slot Nitrado server rental for 3 months. 

This is a new experiment that we’re trying out, and we’ll make adjustments based on player feedback. Want the next event to last longer? Certain rules changed? Be sure to let us know, we’re listening.

FAQ:

Which hill must I conquer?
The Volcano, which is located at 42, 38.

Can we have allies?
Tribes may ally with each other, but only one tribe will be selected as the winner. 

Which TEK Blueprint will be the reward?
The rollout of our TEK Blueprints is still in the planning phase, but we can promise it will be a sought-after TEK item and you will be given the Blueprint at least 3 weeks before it appears in the Dungeon loot table. Reward will be delivered shortly after the June 17th 2.0 Update.

*Winners will receive a promo code for the blueprint when it is ready to be released to them. We will get in contact winners at the conclusion of the event.

What happens when the event is over?

King of the Hill servers will be taken offline at the precise end time posted above so that we may determine the winners without interference from players. Once winners have been determined, these servers will be brought back online.

At that point, you may transfer off the server or stick around until the next event begins. We will announce details on the start of the next event soon.

Can I transfer in and out of this server?
Yes, if you already have a Survivor on another PvP or PvX Hard server, you can transfer them over. Likewise, you can transfer off the server whenever you like.

Will players really be wiped? 
Yes, we will wipe all structures & tames from the Island before the next event begins. Anything you would like to keep (including purchased items) must be in your player inventory before 11:59am on May 29th, 2019. This ensures a fresh start for everybody when the next round of King of the Hill begins.

Are there boosted rates?
2x Harvesting will be turned on for this initial event.
