It represents the true endgame: glowing armor with a built-in jetpack, energy weapons, teleporters, and self-powered structures. But unlike every other tier in ARK, you cannot simply level up and learn Tek from a book. Tek is locked behind ARK&#8217;s hardest content \u2014 the bosses. This guide walks through exactly how the Tek unlock loop works, how to farm the Element that powers it, what each piece of Tek gear does, and how server admins can configure and test Tek progression on their own dedicated server.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Tek first arrived on January 30, 2017, in the original ARK: Survival Evolved (ASE), and it carries over as shared endgame content in ASA. If you are running your own world, a stable <a href=\"https:\/\/xgamingserver.com\/ark-survival-ascended-server-hosting\">dedicated ARK: Survival Ascended server<\/a> makes boss fights and Element farming far more reliable than a laggy peer-hosted session \u2014 and it gives admins the console access needed to test progression safely.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What Is Tek Tier?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Tek Tier is ARK&#8217;s most advanced technology tier \u2014 a collection of endgame structures, armor, and weapons built from the rare resource Element. According to the official wiki, &#8220;all Tek Tier objects \u2026 require defeating bosses&#8221; to craft and use. There are a few documented exceptions to that boss-gate rule: Extinction-exclusive Tekgrams, Cryopods and the Cryofridge, and robotic creatures fall outside the standard unlock loop. Everything else \u2014 the Tek Replicator, Tek armor, Tek weapons, and Tek structures \u2014 sits firmly behind the boss arenas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The progression loop has three repeating beats: advance your survivor level and gather conventional gear, defeat progressively harder bosses to unlock Tek engrams, then farm Element to actually craft and power your Tek. Each beat feeds the next, and the difficulty ramp is steep \u2014 which is exactly why Tek feels like a genuine endgame reward rather than just another crafting tier.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The Unlock Loop: Boss \u2192 Tekgram \u2192 Element<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Tek engrams are called <strong>Tekgrams<\/strong>, and the only way to unlock them is by <strong>defeating bosses<\/strong>. This is the single most important fact about Tek Tier and the part most new players get wrong: you do not buy Tekgrams with engram points the way you do with normal engrams. You earn them by walking into a boss arena, winning, and collecting the Tekgrams the boss grants on death.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Each boss grants specific Tekgrams<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Crucially, bosses do not all unlock the same Tek. Each boss grants a <strong>specific<\/strong> set of Tekgrams. For example, the <strong>Broodmother Lysrix<\/strong> grants the <strong>Tek Helmet<\/strong>, while the <strong>Desert Titan<\/strong> grants the <strong>Tek Railgun<\/strong>. That means full Tek progression is not a single fight \u2014 it is a campaign across multiple boss encounters, each one adding more blueprints to your unlocked list. If you want a complete Tek loadout, you will need to clear several different bosses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Gamma, Beta, Alpha \u2014 harder fights unlock more<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Most bosses can be summoned at three escalating difficulties: <strong>Gamma \u2192 Beta \u2192 Alpha<\/strong>. Harder difficulties unlock more Tekgrams (and, as we&#8217;ll see, drop more Element). Gamma is the entry-level fight and the most forgiving; Alpha is the hardest and the most rewarding. The practical implication for a progression-focused server is that players will revisit the same arenas multiple times, stepping up the difficulty as their dino army and gear improve.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Element: The Resource That Powers Tek<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Tekgrams tell you <em>what<\/em> you can build, but <strong>Element<\/strong> is what you actually build and run it with. Element both crafts Tek items and fuels Tek structures like the generator. It is rare, it does not occur in casual overland nodes, and learning where to farm it efficiently is half the battle of living in the Tek endgame.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Verified ways to acquire Element<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Boss inventories.<\/strong> After killing a boss, Element appears in its inventory. The amount scales with difficulty (Gamma < Beta < Alpha) \u2014 with the notable exceptions of <strong>Rockwell<\/strong> and the <strong>Overseer<\/strong>, which do not follow the standard boss-drop pattern.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Element Nodes in the Extinction Wasteland.<\/strong> Defending these nodes against waves of enemies yields Element.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Refining Element Shards.<\/strong> This is the most efficient farm \u2014 Element Shards (gathered most readily on Genesis and Crystal Isles) refine into full Element.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Charge Nodes on Aberration.<\/strong> These craft Element from Element Ore, charge batteries, and gems.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Genesis Part 2 supply crates.<\/strong> Small amounts of Element show up in these crates.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Hexagon Exchange via HLN-A.<\/strong> You can trade roughly 2,000 Hexagons for one Element.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Element also converts both ways: into <strong>Element Shards<\/strong> (used to power some Tek structures) and into <strong>Element Dust<\/strong> \u2014 though the conversion to Dust comes at an 80% loss, so do it deliberately, not casually.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Crafting Tek: The Tek Replicator<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Once you have the Tekgrams unlocked and Element in hand, you craft Tek gear and structures at the <strong>Tek Replicator<\/strong>. The Replicator is the dedicated Tek crafting station \u2014 think of it as the Tek equivalent of the Fabricator. Most of your high-end Tek items, from armor to weapons, are produced here. Standing up a Replicator (and feeding it Element) is effectively the moment your base transitions into a true Tek base.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Tek Gear: Armor, Weapons, and Structures<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Tek armor<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The full Tek armor suit is made up of five pieces: the <strong>Tek Helmet, Tek Chestpiece, Tek Gauntlets, Tek Boots,<\/strong> and <strong>Tek Leggings<\/strong>. Beyond raw protection, the suit grants powered abilities. The helmet is widely documented for its vision modes, and the chestpiece is commonly known for its jetpack\/flight capability. (Per-piece ability details vary, so check the in-game descriptions on your version for the exact behavior of each piece.) Powered abilities consume Element, which is why a Tek-suited survivor always keeps a stack on hand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Tek weapons<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Tek Rifle<\/strong> \u2014 an energy rifle powered by Element.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Tek Sword<\/strong> \u2014 a high-end melee weapon.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Tek Grenade Launcher<\/strong> \u2014 heavy explosive ordnance.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Tek Railgun<\/strong> \u2014 a long-range energy weapon unlocked from the Desert Titan.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Tek structures<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Tek structures turn your base into something out of science fiction. Key examples include the <strong>Tek Teleporter<\/strong> (instant base-to-base travel), the <strong>Tek Generator<\/strong> (a wireless, Element-fueled power source that drives Tek and even conventional electrical devices), and the <strong>Tek Forcefield<\/strong> (a protective energy dome). These are only a few of the many Tek structures available once the relevant Tekgrams are unlocked.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Tek creatures and saddles<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Tek extends to creatures too. Tek dino variants exist alongside Tek saddles \u2014 for example, the Tek Rex saddle and the Rock Drake Tek Saddle \u2014 which layer Tek-grade protection and abilities onto your mounts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Tek at a Glance<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table is-style-stripes\"><table><thead><tr><th>Tek element<\/th><th>What it is<\/th><th>How you get it<\/th><\/tr><\/thead><tbody>\n<tr><td>Tekgrams<\/td><td>Tek engrams (blueprints)<\/td><td>Defeating bosses; Gamma < Beta < Alpha unlock more<\/td><\/tr>\n<tr><td>Element<\/td><td>Resource that crafts and powers Tek<\/td><td>Boss inventories, Element Nodes, refining Shards, Charge Nodes, Hexagon Exchange<\/td><\/tr>\n<tr><td>Tek Replicator<\/td><td>Crafting station for Tek<\/td><td>Crafted after unlocking its Tekgram<\/td><\/tr>\n<tr><td>Tek armor<\/td><td>5-piece powered suit (vision, jetpack)<\/td><td>Crafted at the Replicator with Element<\/td><\/tr>\n<tr><td>Tek weapons<\/td><td>Rifle, Sword, Grenade Launcher, Railgun<\/td><td>Crafted at the Replicator with Element<\/td><\/tr>\n<tr><td>Tek structures<\/td><td>Teleporter, Generator, Forcefield, more<\/td><td>Crafted at the Replicator with Element<\/td><\/tr>\n<\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Running Tek Progression on Your Own Server<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you host your own world, you have far more control over how the Tek grind plays out \u2014 and you can test it directly with admin commands. The ASA dedicated server installs via SteamCMD using its own App ID, separate from the game client.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table is-style-stripes\"><table><thead><tr><th>Item<\/th><th>SteamCMD App ID<\/th><\/tr><\/thead><tbody>\n<tr><td>ARK: Survival Ascended (game client)<\/td><td>2399830<\/td><\/tr>\n<tr><td>ARK: Survival Ascended Dedicated Server<\/td><td>2430930<\/td><\/tr>\n<tr><td>ARK: Survival Evolved (legacy game)<\/td><td>346110<\/td><\/tr>\n<tr><td>ARK: Survival Evolved Dedicated Server (legacy)<\/td><td>376030<\/td><\/tr>\n<\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">To install or update the ASA dedicated server, the SteamCMD command is:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-code\"><code>app_update 2430930 validate<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Becoming admin to test Tek<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Tek testing requires admin rights. First set <code>ServerAdminPassword<\/code> in <code>GameUserSettings.ini<\/code> under the <code>[ServerSettings]<\/code> section (or pass <code>?ServerAdminPassword=<password><\/code> on the command line). On ASA, there is a launch-argument parsing quirk: <code>?ServerAdminPassword=<password><\/code> should be the <strong>last <code>?<\/code>-style argument<\/strong>, placed before any <code>-<\/code> dash arguments. In-game, open the console with <strong>Tab<\/strong> and run:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-code\"><code>enablecheats <password><\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The password must exactly match <code>ServerAdminPassword<\/code> \u2014 it is case-sensitive with no trailing spaces \u2014 and admin rights last only for that session, so you must re-run <code>enablecheats<\/code> after every relogin. On ASA, admin actions are typically prefixed with <code>admincheat<\/code> (for example <code>admincheat fly<\/code> or <code>admincheat god<\/code>), and <code>cheat <command><\/code> works once cheats are active. For a full walkthrough of admin setup, see our guide on <a href=\"https:\/\/xgamingserver.com\/blog\/how-to-set-admin-password-on-ark-survival-evolved-server\/\">setting the admin password on an ARK server<\/a>, and the step-by-step <a href=\"https:\/\/xgamingserver.com\/docs\/ark-survival-ascended\">ARK: Survival Ascended documentation<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Spawning boss creatures and Tek dinos to test<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">With cheats active, you can spawn creatures to test boss arenas or stand up Tek dino variants. There are three commands, each behaving differently:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><code>cheat summon <classname><\/code> \u2014 spawns a <strong>wild<\/strong> creature at your location at a <strong>random level<\/strong>, using the short classname. You cannot specify the level.<\/li>\n<li><code>cheat SpawnDino \"<Blueprint'path'>\" <spawnDistance> <spawnYOffset> <ZOffset> <dinoLevel><\/code> \u2014 spawns a <strong>wild<\/strong> creature but lets you <strong>choose the level<\/strong> and spawn offsets, using the full blueprint path.<\/li>\n<li><code>cheat gmsummon \"<type>\" <level><\/code> \u2014 spawns a <strong>tamed, rideable<\/strong> creature. It applies the normal taming bonus, so a requested level 150 lands around ~225 after the bonus (the level argument is the pre-tame level).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Worked examples using the Rex classname <code>Rex_Character_BP_C<\/code>:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-code\"><code>cheat summon Rex_Character_BP_C\ncheat SpawnDino \"Blueprint'\/Game\/PrimalEarth\/Dinos\/Rex\/Rex_Character_BP.Rex_Character_BP'\" 500 0 0 150\ncheat gmsummon \"Rex_Character_BP_C\" 150<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Exact class strings vary per creature \u2014 pull the precise classname from a community spawn database rather than guessing. For a deeper walkthrough of spawn syntax and offsets, see our guide on <a href=\"https:\/\/xgamingserver.com\/blog\/how-to-spawn-dinos-in-your-ark-server\/\">how to spawn dinos in your ARK server<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Tuning the grind: rates and multipliers<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Because Tek is gated behind bosses and Element, many admins tune harvest, taming, and XP rates to make the climb to endgame manageable on smaller communities. These keys all live in <code>GameUserSettings.ini<\/code> under <code>[ServerSettings]<\/code>, each defaulting to <code>1.0<\/code>, where higher means more:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-code\"><code>[ServerSettings]\nHarvestAmountMultiplier=2.0\nTamingSpeedMultiplier=3.0\nXPMultiplier=2.0\nHarvestHealthMultiplier=1.0<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><code>HarvestAmountMultiplier<\/code> increases resources gathered per action; <code>TamingSpeedMultiplier<\/code> speeds up taming (helpful for building a boss-fighting dino army); <code>XPMultiplier<\/code> accelerates leveling; and <code>HarvestHealthMultiplier<\/code> raises the durability of harvest nodes so they survive more hits before depleting. For granular control, <code>Game.ini<\/code> supports per-resource overrides via <code>HarvestResourceItemAmountClassMultipliers<\/code>, which override the global harvest rate for specific resource classes \u2014 verify the exact class string for your target resource before publishing it to a live config. A complete rundown lives in our guide to <a href=\"https:\/\/xgamingserver.com\/blog\/how-to-change-gather-rate-on-ark-survival-evolved-server\/\">changing the gather rate on an ARK server<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">ASA vs ASE: What&#8217;s Different for Tek Servers<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Tek Tier content and most <code>.ini<\/code> server keys are shared between ASA and the legacy ASE. The biggest operational difference is mods. ASA distributes mods through <strong>CurseForge<\/strong> with an in-game mod browser \u2014 <strong>not<\/strong> the Steam Workshop that ASE used. On a dedicated server you enable mods by appending <code>-mods=<id>,<id><\/code> to the command line (and\/or setting <code>ActiveMods=<id>,<id><\/code> in <code>GameUserSettings.ini<\/code>), and the server auto-downloads them from CurseForge on start. If you have seen the older <code>-automanagedmods<\/code> flag referenced, treat it as a legacy ASE-era flag; the verified ASA method is <code>-mods=<\/code> with CurseForge IDs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Frequently Asked Questions<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How do you unlock Tek Tier in ARK: Survival Ascended?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You unlock Tek by defeating bosses, which grant Tek engrams (Tekgrams). You cannot learn Tek with normal engram points. Each boss grants specific Tekgrams \u2014 the Broodmother Lysrix grants the Tek Helmet, the Desert Titan grants the Tek Railgun \u2014 and harder difficulties (Gamma < Beta < Alpha) unlock more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What is the best way to farm Element?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Refining Element Shards is the most efficient farm, with Shards gathered most readily on Genesis and Crystal Isles. Element also drops in boss inventories (scaling with difficulty, except Rockwell and the Overseer), from Element Nodes in the Extinction Wasteland, from Aberration Charge Nodes, in Genesis Part 2 supply crates, and via the Hexagon Exchange (about 2,000 Hexagons per Element).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What crafts Tek items?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Tek Replicator is the dedicated crafting station for Tek gear and structures. Once you have unlocked the relevant Tekgrams from bosses and have Element on hand, you produce most Tek items \u2014 armor, weapons, and structures \u2014 at the Replicator.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What does Tek armor do?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Tek armor suit has five pieces \u2014 Helmet, Chestpiece, Gauntlets, Boots, and Leggings \u2014 and grants powered abilities on top of heavy protection. The helmet is documented for its vision modes and the chestpiece for its jetpack\/flight. These abilities consume Element, so a Tek survivor always keeps a stack available.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Is Tek the same in ASA and ASE?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Tek Tier content and most server <code>.ini<\/code> keys are shared between ARK: Survival Ascended and the legacy ARK: Survival Evolved. The main operational difference is the mod system: ASA uses CurseForge (loaded with <code>-mods=<IDs><\/code>), whereas ASE used the Steam Workshop.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Can I cheat-unlock Tek on my own server to test it?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As an admin you can enable cheats with <code>enablecheats <password><\/code> (the password must match <code>ServerAdminPassword<\/code> exactly and is re-required after each relogin) and use <code>admincheat<\/code> commands to spawn creatures, fly, and test arenas.
