About

The Riot Helmet is a craftable armor piece that protects the head and face. It offers substantial durability and damage reduction, making it useful for combat-focused builds and PvP testing.

Spawn it with either the numeric item ID or GFI code. Since it has no blueprint path and does not stack, you receive one helmet per spawn command, adjust the amount parameter in the command if you need multiples.

Frequently Asked Questions

Which game is the Riot Helmet from?
The Riot Helmet is from ARK: Survival Ascended. Every ID, code, and command on this page is specific to ARK: Survival Ascended and its current live build.
What's the full blueprint path of the Riot Helmet?
The full blueprint path is "Blueprint'/Game/PrimalEarth/CoreBlueprints/Items/Armor/Riot/PrimalItemArmor_RiotHelmet.PrimalItemArmor_RiotHelmet'". Paste it into GiveItem to spawn the exact item: cheat GiveItem "Blueprint'/Game/PrimalEarth/CoreBlueprints/Items/Armor/Riot/PrimalItemArmor_RiotHelmet.PrimalItemArmor_RiotHelmet'" 1 0 0. Copy it exactly, because the path is case sensitive and must keep its wrapping quotes.
How do I spawn the Riot Helmet as a blueprint instead of a finished item?
Set the final argument to 1: cheat gfi PrimalItemArmor_RiotHelmet 1 0 1. The last number is the blueprint flag, where 0 gives the crafted item and 1 gives its blueprint (for craftable items; on items with no blueprint the flag is simply ignored).
How do I spawn the Riot Helmet by its item ID?
Run cheat GiveItemNum 445 1 0 0 in the admin console. GiveItemNum spawns by numeric ID, which is precise for scripts and control panels. The trailing numbers are quantity, quality, and blueprint flag.
What's the difference between GFI and GiveItemNum for the Riot Helmet?
Both spawn the Riot Helmet. gfi PrimalItemArmor_RiotHelmet matches the item by name and is quickest to type; GiveItemNum 445 uses the numeric ID and is precise for scripting. Same result, different lookup.
How do I spawn the Riot Helmet in ARK: Survival Ascended?
Open the admin console and run cheat gfi PrimalItemArmor_RiotHelmet 1 0 0. That gives you one Riot Helmet instantly. The three numbers after the code are quantity, quality, and blueprint flag. Raise the first to spawn a stack, or set the last to 1 to receive it as a blueprint instead of a finished item. Verified against the current ARK: ASA build as of June 28, 2026.
How do I spawn multiple Riot Helmet at once?
Change the quantity argument, the first number after the code. For example cheat gfi PrimalItemArmor_RiotHelmet 25 0 0 spawns 25 of the Riot Helmet. Stacks respect the item's maximum stack size.
Can I spawn the Riot Helmet over RCON or on a dedicated server?
Yes. Send the same command through RCON or your control-panel console: cheat gfi PrimalItemArmor_RiotHelmet 1 0 0. If your tool already runs with admin context, drop the leading "cheat". It works the same on hosted, self-hosted, and RCON setups.
What's the difference between the Riot Helmet GFI code and its blueprint path?
The GFI code PrimalItemArmor_RiotHelmet is a short name for quick spawning; the blueprint path "Blueprint'/Game/PrimalEarth/CoreBlueprints/Items/Armor/Riot/PrimalItemArmor_RiotHelmet.PrimalItemArmor_RiotHelmet'" is the full engine reference used by GiveItem and spawn tools. Both point at the same Riot Helmet.
What is the Riot Helmet class used for in mods or spawn tools?
Spawn managers, loot-table editors, and RCON macros reference the Riot Helmet by its class PrimalItemArmor_RiotHelmet_C or GFI PrimalItemArmor_RiotHelmet. Both uniquely identify it in ARK: Survival Ascended.

A heavy riot helmet that provides head and face protection, spawnable via item ID or GFI code for testing armor setups.
Is the Riot Helmet spawn code on GameServersCodex accurate?
Yes. The Riot Helmet's class name, GFI code, item ID, and blueprint path are reproduced exactly from the live game data and re-checked each patch, so you can copy them straight into your console.
What's the numeric item ID of the Riot Helmet?
The numeric item ID for the Riot Helmet is 445. Use it with GiveItemNum, cheat GiveItemNum 445 1 0 0, to spawn by ID instead of by GFI name.
How do I enable admin commands to spawn the Riot Helmet?
In single-player, cheats are on by default. On a dedicated or hosted server, log in as admin first with enablecheats <AdminPassword>, then run the Riot Helmet spawn command. Without admin access the console rejects it.
How do I give the Riot Helmet to another player?
Look at the player and run cheat GiveItemToPlayer <PlayerID> 445 1 0 0, or stand near them and use cheat GiveItemNum 445 1 0 0 after selecting them in your admin tools. It's the quick way to hand out the Riot Helmet during events and giveaways.
Does the Riot Helmet spawn command work in single-player and multiplayer?
Yes, the command is identical in both. Single-player has cheats enabled by default; multiplayer just requires an admin login first. The Riot Helmet then spawns the same way.
Is the Riot Helmet a DLC item or part of the base game?
The Riot Helmet is part of the base ARK: Survival Ascended game, so no DLC or map pack is required to spawn or craft it.
What do the numbers in the Riot Helmet spawn command mean?
In cheat gfi PrimalItemArmor_RiotHelmet 1 0 0, the code identifies the Riot Helmet, then the three numbers are quantity, quality, and blueprint flag (0 = item, 1 = blueprint). So it spawns one standard Riot Helmet.
How current is the Riot Helmet spawn info?
The Riot Helmet entry was last verified on GameServersCodex on June 28, 2026. We track the live ARK: ASA build, so the IDs and commands here reflect the current patch.
How do I spawn a higher-quality Riot Helmet?
The second number is quality, where 0 is primitive and higher values roll toward ascendant. cheat gfi PrimalItemArmor_RiotHelmet 1 100 0 attempts a top tier Riot Helmet. Quality only affects items that support tiers; on others it's ignored.
How do I open the console to spawn the Riot Helmet?
On PC, press Tab to open the admin console, paste the command, and press Enter. On Xbox and PlayStation, open the pause menu and use the on-screen command bar. Then drop in the Riot Helmet spawn code from this page.
Is the Riot Helmet blueprint path case-sensitive?
Yes. "Blueprint'/Game/PrimalEarth/CoreBlueprints/Items/Armor/Riot/PrimalItemArmor_RiotHelmet.PrimalItemArmor_RiotHelmet'" must be typed exactly, including capitalization and the wrapping quotes. Copy it from this page to avoid a typo that returns an empty spawn.
What's the Riot Helmet GFI short code?
The GFI code for the Riot Helmet is PrimalItemArmor_RiotHelmet. GFI matches the item by its short blueprint name, so cheat gfi PrimalItemArmor_RiotHelmet 1 0 0 is the fastest way to spawn it without typing the full blueprint path.
How do I add the Riot Helmet to a starter kit or loadout?
Include cheat gfi PrimalItemArmor_RiotHelmet 1 0 0 in your server's kit or spawn script, and set the quantity argument to hand out multiples. Pair it with other item commands from the Codex to build a full loadout.
Why isn't my Riot Helmet spawn command working?
Check three things: admin access is enabled (enablecheats on servers), the code is typed exactly (PrimalItemArmor_RiotHelmet), and all three trailing numbers are present. Copying cheat gfi PrimalItemArmor_RiotHelmet 1 0 0 directly from this page avoids the most common mistakes.
