How to Show Damage

Combat is an important part of any RPG game, and Ark Survival Evolved is no exception. In the stats you can see how much damage you can do, crit damage, etc. But it is much more convenient when during the battle you see all these numbers from each punch. Fortunately, the game has a function that allows you to see the damage done. But it only works in single mode or on other players’ servers.

And so to activate this function you need to select Host / Local in the main menu. On the left, you will see a menu with a variety of settings. You need to select the Advanced Settings tab and scroll down the list. There will be a lot of settings you don’t need, scroll down until you reach the Miscellaneous Settings section. Now you need to check the box next to Show Floating Damage Text. And you’re done, now you just have to start a single-player game or start a Dedicated Server. Starting the game, you can immediately try out the new function by trying to beat a couple of weak creatures.
