The Water Jar is one of the Tools in ARK: Survival Evolved. It is unlocked at Level 26 for 12 Engram Points.

The Water Jar holds 200 units of  Water and, unlike the  Waterskin, does not slowly leak out over time. However, the Water Jar is far heavier than the Waterskin, making carrying around multiple of them a bit of a hassle. Additionally, empty Water Jars can be used with  Beer Liquid in a  Beer Barrel to create  Beer Jars.

The Water Jar is superseded by the  Canteen.

Notes

  •  Gachas will eat Water Jars put in a  Feeding Trough, since you are allowed to put them there because of the Tek Trough. Because it provides little nutrition, it will be the first item eaten and will probably disappear very quickly.
  • On Scorched Earth, the Water Jar, like all water containers, will slowly lose water over time.
  • To drink from the Water Jar, highlight it in your inventory and select Use Item, or put it on your hotbar and press the designated key. Players can drink from a filled Water Jar twice before it needs to be refilled.
  • The cheat command "AddEquipmentDurability <amount>" can be used to add water to a Water Jar in the hotbar.
  • To refill the Water Jar, use it while standing in the rain or while standing in shallow water. You can also fill it by placing it in the inventory of a  Stone Irrigation Pipe - Tap or  Metal Irrigation Pipe - Tap.
  • Putting a filled Water Jar into a  Refrigerator or a  Tek Trough will give you an  Iced Water Jar after 60 seconds. Drinking from an Iced Water Jar increases your hyperthermal insulation by 84 and decreases your hypothermal insulation by the same amount, which makes it easier to survive in hot places like the Lava Cave or on Scorched Earth. Once removed from the Refrigerator, the Iced Water Jar will "spoil" into a normal Water Jar after 240 seconds. However, leaving it in the Refridgerator will extend the spoil time to what equates to almost 2 real-life years. Iced Water Jars also help to remove Heatstroke.
