The Waterskin is one of the Tools in ARK: Survival Evolved. It is unlocked at Level 3 for 6 Engram Points.

The Waterskin is used to keep the survivor hydrated, holding up to 100 units of  Water. Their early unlock Level and low resource cost makes them invaluable to early players. However, Waterskins slowly leak out any water currently inside them, meaning that one must be keep a close eye on its water level lest it completely drain.

The Waterskin is superseded by the  Water Jar.

Notes

• The icon image changes to a more bloated Waterskin when filled in a  Tap. The image doesn't revert when the Waterskin is emptied unless used in a  Cooking Pot when making dyes.
• You cannot fill a Waterskin while swimming; find a shoreline to refill it.
• The cheat command "AddEquipmentDurability <amount>" can be used to add water to a Waterskin in the hotbar.
• It is possible to have a broken Waterskin, which will not be repairable and cannot be filled with water.
• It is not recommended for players to make long inland excursions without knowledge of a nearby water source for when the Waterskin drains itself.
• To drink from the Waterskin, highlight it in your inventory and select Use Item, or put it on your hotbar and press the designated key. Players can only drink from a filled Waterskin once before it must be refilled.
• The water level of a filled Waterskin is shown by the blue bar at the bottom of the item frame.
• To refill the Waterskin, 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.
• It takes about 36 minutes and 40 seconds for a filled Waterskin to completely drain itself, losing 1 point of water every 22 seconds.
