This guide will show you how to change the tribute requirements for boss arenas in ARK. There are a few boss tributes that kinda nag me, like why is the Artifact of the Strong always required for Beta difficulty boss fights on Valguero and Crystal Isles and Lost Island, and why is the Artifact of the Brute not used to enter the Ragnarok Arena?
Configurar
Primeiro, find your Game.ini file, located in the file explorer. This is the file: “SteamLibrary\steamapps\common\ARK\ShooterGame\Saved\Config\WindowsNoEditor\Game” (DO NOT COPY THE QUOTES!) Go all the way to line 118 and input this code: “ConfigOverrideItemCraftingCosts”

How to Set Up the Code in the .ini
The code may seem strange, but this is how it is entered:
ConfigOverrideItemCraftingCosts=(ItemClassString="<Class string>",BaseCraftingResourceRequirements=((ResourceItemTypeString="<Class string>",BaseResourceRequirement=<Numerical value, 1.0-18446744073709552615.0>,bCraftingRequireExactResourceType=<verdadeiro falso>)))
Exemplo 1: Alpha-difficulty Valguero fight as it should be
ConfigOverrideItemCraftingCosts=(ItemClassString=”PrimalItem_BossTribute_ValThreeBoss_Hard_C”,BaseCraftingResourceRequirements=((ResourceItemTypeString=”PrimalItemArtifact_12_C”,BaseResourceRequirement=1.0,bCraftingRequireExactResourceType=true),(ResourceItemTypeString=”PrimalItemArtifactSE_02_C”,BaseResourceRequirement=1.0,bCraftingRequireExactResourceType=true),(ResourceItemTypeString=”PrimalItemArtifact_11_C”,BaseResourceRequirement=1.0,bCraftingRequireExactResourceType=true),(ResourceItemTypeString=”PrimalItemArtifactSE_03_C”,BaseResourceRequirement=1.0,bCraftingRequireExactResourceType=true),(ResourceItemTypeString=”PrimalItemArtifact_07_C”,BaseResourceRequirement=1.0,bCraftingRequireExactResourceType=true),(ResourceItemTypeString=”PrimalItemArtifactSE_01_C”,BaseResourceRequirement=1.0,bCraftingRequireExactResourceType=true),(ResourceItemTypeString=”PrimalItemArtifact_08_C”,BaseResourceRequirement=1.0,bCraftingRequireExactResourceType=true),(ResourceItemTypeString=”PrimalItemArtifact_02_C”,BaseResourceRequirement=1.0,bCraftingRequireExactResourceType=true),(ResourceItemTypeString=”PrimalItemArtifact_06_C”,BaseResourceRequirement=1.0,bCraftingRequireExactResourceType=true),(ResourceItemTypeString=”PrimalItemArtifact_09_C”,BaseResourceRequirement=1.0,bCraftingRequireExactResourceType=true),(ResourceItemTypeString=”PrimalItemResource_ApexDrop_Allo_C”,BaseResourceRequirement=10.0,bCraftingRequireExactResourceType=true),(ResourceItemTypeString=”PrimalItemResource_ApexDrop_Basilo_C”,BaseResourceRequirement=10.0,bCraftingRequireExactResourceType=true),(ResourceItemTypeString=”PrimalItemResource_ApexDrop_FireWyvern_C”,BaseResourceRequirement=20.0,bCraftingRequireExactResourceType=true),(ResourceItemTypeString=”PrimalItemResource_ApexDrop_Gigant_C”,BaseResourceRequirement=2.0,bCraftingRequireExactResourceType=true),(ResourceItemTypeString=”PrimalItemResource_ApexDrop_LightningWyvern_C”,BaseResourceRequirement=20.0,bCraftingRequireExactResourceType=true),(ResourceItemTypeString=”PrimalItemResource_ApexDrop_Megalania_C”,BaseResourceRequirement=10.0,bCraftingRequireExactResourceType=true),(ResourceItemTypeString=”PrimalItemResource_ApexDrop_Megalodon_C”,BaseResourceRequirement=10.0,bCraftingRequireExactResourceType=true),(ResourceItemTypeString=”PrimalItemResource_ApexDrop_PoisonWyvern_C”,BaseResourceRequirement=20.0,bCraftingRequireExactResourceType=true),(ResourceItemTypeString=”PrimalItemResource_ApexDrop_Spino_C”,BaseResourceRequirement=10.0,bCraftingRequireExactResourceType=true),(ResourceItemTypeString=”PrimalItemResource_ApexDrop_Theriz_C”,BaseResourceRequirement=10.0,bCraftingRequireExactResourceType=true),(ResourceItemTypeString=”PrimalItemResource_ApexDrop_Thylaco_C”,BaseResourceRequirement=10.0,bCraftingRequireExactResourceType=true),(ResourceItemTypeString=”PrimalItemResource_ApexDrop_Tuso_C”,BaseResourceRequirement=10.0,bCraftingRequireExactResourceType=true),(ResourceItemTypeString=”PrimalItemResource_ApexDrop_Rex_C”,BaseResourceRequirement=15.0,bCraftingRequireExactResourceType=true),(ResourceItemTypeString=”PrimalItemResource_ApexDrop_Yuty_C”,BaseResourceRequirement=10.0,bCraftingRequireExactResourceType=true)))
Exemplo 2: Using Extinction Titan trophies to summon the Fjordur boss (Gamma)
ConfigOverrideItemCraftingCosts=(ItemClassString=”PrimalItem_BossTribute_FenrirBoss_Easy_C”,BaseCraftingResourceRequirements=((ResourceItemTypeString=”PrimalItemTrophy_Spider_Gamma_C”,BaseResourceRequirement=1.0,bCraftingRequireExactResourceType=false),(ResourceItemTypeString=”PrimalItemTrophy_Kaiju_Desert_C”,BaseResourceRequirement=1.0,bCraftingRequireExactResourceType=true),(ResourceItemTypeString=”PrimalItemTrophy_Dragon_Gamma_C”,BaseResourceRequirement=1.0,bCraftingRequireExactResourceType=false),(ResourceItemTypeString=”PrimalItemTrophy_Kaiju_Forest_C”,BaseResourceRequirement=1.0,bCraftingRequireExactResourceType=true),(ResourceItemTypeString=”PrimalItemTrophy_Kaiju_Ice_C”,BaseResourceRequirement=1.0,bCraftingRequireExactResourceType=true),(ResourceItemTypeString=”PrimalItemTrophy_Gorilla_Gamma_C”,BaseResourceRequirement=1.0,bCraftingRequireExactResourceType=false),(ResourceItemTypeString=”PrimalItemArtifact_04_C”,BaseResourceRequirement=1.0,bCraftingRequireExactResourceType=false)))
