ARK Sabertooth Spawn Command

A fast, agile carnivore with exceptional harvesting claws — it yields unusually high amounts of Hide, Pelt, Chitin, Keratin, and Organic Polymer from carcasses. Headshots against it deal 3x damage, and it delivers significant knockback with its melee attacks. Sabertooth is a carnivore. Typically found in groups of 2–6 on mountains and cold biomes — engaging one often means fighting the pack. Preferred taming food is Regular Kibble; can be bola-trapped for safer knockout.

All abilities use standard controls: primary attack button for bite/claw, spacebar/jump to leap. No radial menu required. Can fire ranged weapons while mounted. Level Melee Damage to increase harvesting yield from carcasses — this directly scales the amount of Chitin, Keratin, Organic Polymer, and Hide gathered. Level Stamina for sustained cave exploration and combat. Its small size fits many caves; use bolas on wild Sabertooths before taming to prevent them from fleeing into pack reinforcements.

Harvesting Hide, Pelt, Chitin, Keratin, and Organic Polymer; cave exploration (small enough to fit most entrances); early-to-mid game combat mount; scouting/travel due to high speed and reduced fall damage.

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

Use the builder above, or cheat gmsummon "Saber_Character_BP_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.

Yes. The builder above generates a single SpawnExactDino command that bakes the level and the imprint into one copy-paste line. The saddle comes as a separate cheat gfi command (it can't ride inside the spawn). To set its colours, spawn it first, then use the ARK Dino Color Builder to build the SetTargetDinoColor commands (with a live preview).

summon drops a wild Sabertooth 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.

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.
