ARK: Survival Ascended hosting on Renzom
ARK: Survival Ascended uses Proton to run the Windows server binary on our Linux infrastructure. We've tuned the Proton runtime + steamcmd egg so ASA boots reliably without the usual Linux ARK-server headaches.
10 GB RAM minimum for serious play (8 players, modest mods). 16–24 GB for big tribes or heavily-modded clusters. Cluster support: link multiple maps via shared `clusters/` folder.
Falkenstein data center, full Pterodactyl panel, DDoS protection. From €14/month for 8-player tier.

Common questions
How much RAM does ARK: Survival Ascended need?
8 players, 10 GB. 12 players modded, 14–16 GB. Big tribes or PVE worlds with 6+ months of structures, 20–24 GB. RAM scales hard with structure count, not just players.
Are clusters (multi-map) supported?
Yes. Add additional servers in the panel, set the same `ClusterId` and shared `clusters/` folder path. Characters and items transfer between maps.
Are mods supported?
Yes. Set Workshop mod IDs in the panel startup variables — server downloads on first boot. We pin a tested Proton version so mod compatibility doesn't break on patch days.
How fast are patches deployed?
Within 24 hours of Wildcard release. We test the egg before pushing because ASA updates routinely break server boot on Linux/Proton.
Where is the server hosted?
Falkenstein, Saxony, Germany.
