If we look at real life, the wild version of something is stronger. And add on to it mutation breeding and imprints you get the situation today where you have basically godmode enabled dinos. They get up to 73 levels just from being tamed. Secondly tamed dinos only keep on getting stronger. Because it widens the possible level gap between your tames and wilds. First the higher the max wild level, the easier the game gets. PVE Ark is plenty difficult if you let it be. Idk if any of you dudes have tried going back to the low lvls, but the experience has been so positive for me that I had to share.
Full disclosure, I tweeked the settings for dino weight/stamina because I didn't want to lose all the utility. You don't need to have a dino hitting for 5,000 to have fun.
I've logged over 1,600 hours and have been booting up mods like primal fear but they just ruin the gritty survival feeling for me. On standard difficulty, the power gap between a perfect tame 150 (-> 224 + a saddle, before any level ups) and a wild 150 is absurd. The engram saddles/weapons are all balanced from the get go and taming something will never take more than 15 minutes with kibble! The whole game becomes challenging and stays that way because everything is balanced. You no longer need to grind for blueprints. When your perfect tame ends up at lvl 44 and is statistically not that much different than before, a layer of difficulty is added that you can't get otherwise. Started this on Ragnarok a few nights ago, and let me say, it is way harder and much more entertaining.
