Wyvern Stats Tanking after Server restart
First of all, we're using high level dinos from this mod. Our max dino level is 600. I have several 3000lvl plus wyverns and after leveling their melee and health, a server restart causes them to be nerfed into uselessness. Tamed an undead wyvern and leveled up to about 3400. Melee was at 1800% yesterday and 1.5 mil health. Logged on an hour ago, Melee is down to 134% health is 800,000. How do I keep this from happening because it's making it so they aren't even worth taming.

its called the stat overflow bug from ark, its not due to this mod. When you put too many points into any stat above 255 times it will reset back to zero.

I know of this bug. But i didn't do that at all. I probably leveled up this dragon maybe 30 times period and added like most of that into melee and like 6 or so into health. I know it wasn't more than that. I don't use level potions, I've never even gotten than many more levels on anything. I have also had this happen on dinos I didn't level at all. Like our zombie wyvern. I just tamed it and parked it. It had high melee when we got it, after the server restart, it went down. I will try to recreate it again and take screens and keep track of the levels.

do you know if this happens after one server restart or if it happens any time. Maybe it was just these two dragons. Doesn't seem to affect regular wyverns.

Pegi is right..it's the stat limit bug...that's the problem with high level dinos altho at max level 600 u shouldn't be running into that..not sure why your tamed dinos are coming out to 3000 but that's definately the issue...any Dino with over 255 levels in any stat (wild levels and tame bonus levels included) will nerf after the next restart back to base level...so if a Dino tames at level 2000 with a hp of 800k...u need to figure out how many levels (wild and then during tame) it took to reach 800k...and yes it's possible that it may be over 255 already without adding even one point..I have been running a server with diff 34 (wild Dino 1020) forever and that is basically the max before u start to see the nerf happen ...and now that we use pegis mods we run into it every now and then...as pegis dinos will spawn higher than server max level...our max is 1020 and pegis dinos spawn up to 1300 aprox...and we tell the whole server to not tame any over 1020 due to this very bug...in the future we will use max level 840..that way even pegis dinos won't hit that mark...my advise would be to ditch the stupid high levels and just make the your stats worth more...make it so that max level 600 has the stats of 2400...times all stats by 4..something like that and you will never hit the stat limit

How do I go about making my stats worth more. That is actually something I have been looking into, but the last thing I tried, not only made tames stats better, it made wild dinos stats better, and we were getting annihilated by things like Pirahnas and Salmon.
