Want to see just the Scorched Earth engrams and nothing from the base ARK experience? On the engram screen just remove the “ARK Prime Engrams” check box at the top-left corner and it will cull out all the base engrams.

You won’t actually be able to see most of the new Scorched Earth options until you hit high enough level and unlock them first. Below we list out every single new engram available in Scorched Earth by type.
