Ingredients

The Metal Spike Wall is a structure in ARK: Survival Evolved that can be used to defend against melee attacks by Humans or Creatures. It deals damage to any survivor or creature touching it, and also knocks the attacker back. By default, Spike Walls do not damage wild dinosaurs upon contact—they will only injure wild dinosaurs that are attacking them. It is the upgraded version of the  Wooden Spike Wall. Despite its name, Metal Spike Wall is treated as a stone structure.

Notes

  • Despite being a metal object, the Metal Spike Wall takes damage as if it were stone.
  • Arthropleura damage spiked walls upon death due to suspected Thorns Damage (PVE)
  • Setting the Game.ini option bPassiveDefensesDamageRiderlessDinos to true allows riderless dinosaurs to take damage upon contact.
  • Console command to spawn a Metal Spike Wall in front of the character: cheat summon SpikeWall_C
    • This will spawn a Metal Spike Wall that don't belong to you! You can use console command cheat givetome to take ownership.
