ARK Lost King Spawn Command (2026) — Tamed, Wild & Leveled

Q: What is the Lost King spawn command in ARK?

Open the console with ~ and enter cheat summon BossBat_Character_BP_LostKing_C to spawn a wild Lost King in ARK: Survival Ascended. For a tamed one at a level you choose, use cheat gmsummon "BossBat_Character_BP_LostKing_C" 150. On a server, run enablecheats <ServerAdminPassword> first and keep the cheat prefix.

Q: How do I spawn a tamed Lost King at a specific level?

Use cheat gmsummon "BossBat_Character_BP_LostKing_C" <level>. The number is the pre-tame level — ARK adds up to a 50% taming bonus, so a value of 100 ends up around level 150. To hit a target level, divide it by 1.5. A gmsummon creature still needs a saddle to ride.

Q: What's the difference between summon, SummonTamed and gmsummon?

summon drops a wild Lost King at a random level. SummonTamed gives you a tamed one but at a random level you can't set. gmsummon spawns it tamed at the level you specify — the one most people want.

Q: Do ARK spawn commands work in single player and on servers?

Yes. In single player the cheat prefix is optional and no password is needed. On a dedicated or non-dedicated session you must run enablecheats <ServerAdminPassword> once, then prefix each spawn with cheat. Set that admin password without hand-editing files using our free ARK config generators.

Spawn a tamed Lost King at any level

gmsummon spawns it already tamed. Set the level below — it's the pre-tame level, and ARK adds up to a 50% taming bonus on top, so the final creature lands higher. Change the number, copy, paste.

Pre-tame level

cheat gmsummon "BossBat_Character_BP_LostKing_C" 150

≈ level 225 once tamed

A gmsummon-tamed Lost King still needs a saddle — it isn't force-tamed. Want it instantly, level aside? Use cheat SummonTamed BossBat_Character_BP_LostKing_C (random level).

ARK Lost King FAQ — Ability, Uses & Spawn Commands

What does the Lost King do in ARK?

The Lost King (Darius Anthom) is an untameable boss who is fully invulnerable while mounted on his personal Gigadesmodus. Players must destroy four power poles around the arena to force him to land before he can take any damage. Found in the Lost Colony DLC. He rides a personal Gigadesmodus into battle, making him the first ARK boss with a flying animal mount phase. Too many players in the raid significantly buffs him.

How do you use the Lost King's ability in ARK?

This is a boss encounter, not a rideable creature. Phase 1: destroy all four power poles while managing waves of Thrall minions. Phase 2 (grounded): detonate exploding crystals near him to stun him, then attack with Pump-Action Shotguns, Tek Rifles, or melee. Bring a Yutyrannus for Courage Roar buffs on your tames. Recommended tames: Rex (damage), Reaper or Ossidon (tanking Beta/Alpha), Daeodon (healing support between landing phases). Keep raid group under 10 players — 10+ players trigger a damage reduction buff on the boss making him nearly unkillable. Gamma requires level 55+ plus 1 Alpha Ossidon Skull, 1 Alpha Zombie Brain, and 5 Neophyte Horns.

What is the Lost King good for in ARK?
