ARK: Survival Evolved. It got introduced with the release of Aquatica.
Gathering
To gather Infected Teeth, kill and harvest the corpses of
Abyssal Rex or
Abyssal Yutyrannus. They can be found in the Abyss biome, as well as in high-tier Rifts. Corpses in the corrosive areas can also be harvested for Infected Teeth as well as other infected parts. Be aware that fully farming those corpses will give you a spore debuff similar to the fertile spores on Aberration.
Usage
Infected Teeth can be used in the
Infectarium to craft
Infected Barnacles. Infected Barnacles crafted with Infected Teeth increase the chance to apply Jaundice DoT on attacks.
| Part | 1 | 2 | 3 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Infected Tooth - Chance to apply Jaundice DoT on attacks | 5% | 12% | 30% |
It can also be consumed by tames and the player, dealing 25 damage and restoring 10 Food to humans.
Eating it will increase your Movement Speed and increase Food and Water drain by roughly 20%. The icon also reads that it increases Melee Damage, but it appears to have no impact.
Forcefeeding it to your tame will increase its Movement Speed. It does not damage tames, it does not increase damage output.
