Modded ARK: Survival Ascended Servers

Today in this blog, we’re diving into the Top 4 Mods you need to try on your Ark Survival Ascended server. Whether you’re hosting a private server for friends or creating a community hub, these mods will enhance your gameplay experience without breaking the balance of the game.

Mod 1. Simple Performance Mod
First on our list is the Simple Performance Mod by jir98. This mod is a lifesaver, especially for players on lower-end hardware or servers running with a lot of players. It automates performance-enhancing commands that optimize how Ark runs, reducing lag and increasing stability.

At Gravel Host, we recommend pairing this mod with our powerful servers to ensure the best possible experience for your community.

Mod 2. Custom Dino Levels
Next up, we have Custom Dino Levels by KitsyCaty. Are you tired of endlessly searching for high-level dinos? This mod solves that problem by equalizing the spawn rates, giving every level an equal chance to appear. It’s perfect for solo players, small tribes, or anyone who doesn’t have hours to spare hunting for that perfect tame.

Plus, it offers customizable settings, so you can tweak the level distribution to match your server’s difficulty and balance.

Mod 3. Utilities Plus
At number three is Utilities Plus by Blitzfire911. This mod adds reusable versions of some of Ark’s most essential items, like bowlers, parachutes, grappling hooks, and even binoculars. Not only does this save resources, but it also removes some of the early-game frustrations that can bog down new players. It’s a quality-of-life improvement that every server should have.

Mod 4. Arkitect Structures Remastered
Finally, we have Arkitect Structures Remastered by gimMilad. This mod completely overhauls Ark’s building mechanics, giving you more creative control than ever before. With stackable foundations, advanced roof options, and automatic doors, your builds will not only look better but also function more efficiently.

This mod is perfect for server owners looking to host creative building competitions or simply improve their own base designs.
