อาน (Saddle) ใช้สวมใส่ให้กับสิ่งมีชีวิตต่างๆ ใน ARK: Survival Evolved เพื่อไว้ขี่สิ่งมีชีวิตนั้น โดยทั่วไปอานจะมีชื่อที่ตรงกันกับสิ่งมีชีวิตถึงจะสวมใส่ได้ และอานของบางตัวนั้นมีความสามารถพิเศษ

สถิติของอาน

Most Saddles made with Engrams have 25 Armor. , , , , , and (not platform) have 20 Armor. The has 1.0 Armor. All Tek Saddles made from Tekgrams have 45 Armor. Saddles made with Blueprints can have better stats. With the exception of the , saddles don't lose durability, and it is not visible on tooltips.

By gathered in-game data, the following formulas were derived for calculating damage reduction to dinos from armor.

The general formulas are as follows:

DamageMultiplier = 100 / (100 + Armor Coefficient * Armor)

TotalDamage = Damage * DamageMultiplier

DamageReduction = 1 - DamageMultiplier

Armor Coefficient is the unique value that each source of damage has, representing how much each attack affected by an armor. There are two different type of Armor Coefficient value in each damage source, the first one is a value against survivor's armor and the second one is a value against saddles on creatures.

For example, bite attack of the Rex has the Armor coefficient value 4 against creature's saddle and Armor coefficient value 1 against survivor's armor.

The value of the Armor Coefficient varies based on the source of the damage and are shown in the following sections. In most cases, Armor Coefficient value 4 is applied against saddle and 1 is applied against survivor's armor.

This graph demonstrates the diminishing returns of damage reduction from saddle armor. (request verification of vs Turret calculation)

Explosives

For explosive damage against saddles, the Armor Coefficient has a value of 1.

DamageMultiplier = 100 / (100 + 1 * Armor)

Example using 750 explosive damage (Grenades and rockets from a primitive Rocket Launcher) against a creature:

Armor	Damage Multiplier	Total Damage	Damage Reduction
0	1	750	0%
25	0.8	600	20%
30	0.769230 (repeating)	576.92	23.08%
40	0.714285 (repeating)	535.71	28.57%
50	0.666666 (repeating)	500	33.33%

Firearms and Melee Weapons

For bullet damage and player melee weapon against saddles, the Armor Coefficient has a value of 4.

DamageMultiplier = 100 / (100 + 4 * Armor)

Example using 60 bullet damage (bullet from a Simple Pistol) against a creature:

Armor	Damage Multiplier	Total Damage	Damage Reduction
0	1	60	0%
25	0.5	30	50%
30	0.454545 (repeating)	27.27	55%
40	0.384615 (repeating)	23.08	61.54%
50	0.333333 (repeating)	20	66.66%

• As of patch 231.4 turrets do 2.2x damage vs. all dinos.

Dino Attacks

For dino damage, the Armor Coefficient against saddle varies on the attacker. It is usually 4, but there are some exception. It can vary widely with some examples are shown below:

• Melee attacks from most of regular dinos (Rexes, Giga, Trike, Brontos and etc): 4 (50% damage reduction from a 25 armor saddle)
• Attacks from Alpha Raptors: 1 (20% damage reduction from a 25 armor saddle)
• Attacks from Mantas and Therizinosaur: 0.4 (9.09% damage reduction from a 25 armor saddle)
• Attacks from Lighting Wyvern's breath: 0.1 (2.5% damage reduction from a 25 armor saddle)
• Attacks from the poison breath of Poison Wyvern and Basilisk: 0 (Completely ignore saddle armor)

Ranged Attack

Some saddles have the ability to shoot bullets out due to the way its designed. Most of them requires Engram/Tekgram learnt in order to be utilized (activated with Ctrl and presssed with right click.)

• - Requires its Tekgram to shoot with
• - Requires its Tekgram to shoot with Element
• - Requires its Tekgram to shoot with Element
• - Requires its Tekgram to shoot with Element
• - Requires its Tekgram to shoot with Element
• - Requires its Tekgram to shoot with Element in other turret seats; not required however for rider seat
• - Does not require its Engram to shoot with whilst in Jet mode.
• - Requires its Engram to utilize Starwing mode with Element to shoot
• - Does not require its Engram to shoot with whilst in Turret mode

Tek Saddles have the ability to shoot bullets with Element when activated with Ctrl and pressed with right click. However, to utilize such ability, the saddle has to be learnt from beating containing such tekgram. Riding on creatures with Tek Saddle does not require the Tekgram, however.
