The Mini-HLNA Skin is both a skin and an off-hand slot in ARK: Survival Evolved.
Obtaining[]
The Mini-HLNA Skin can be acquired by purchasing the Genesis Season Pass for $34.99 USD.
Usage[]
Mini-HLNA acts as moving pet floating at the side of the Survivor. She often says random sentences when the Survivor either does a specific action, such as pooping, executing an Emote or idling while looking at her.

Genesis Chronicles[]
Mini-HLNA acts as a crucial requirement to obtain the Genesis Chronicles and Genesis 2 Chronicles upon approaching specific cave locations or Santiago Logs
Emotes[]
Whenever the Survivor executes an Emote, Mini-HLNA will also play an icon and voiceline depending on what he or she does.

Notes/Trivia[]
- The Mini HLN-A Skin is meant to be a piece of the survivor Helena.
- It has her personality as well as her carefree voice.
- The Season Pass must be owned to spawn in the Skin.
- Also, the Skin cannot be dropped, making trading almost impossible, but if you unequip everything, including the Mini-HNLA Skin, then fast travel to a bed, you will then be able to transfer it as normal.
- However, any color painted on it will revert to unpainted, this includes death or transfer.
- Currently having Mini-HLNA equipped while accessing a
Giant Bee Hive with a complete Ghillie Armor set will still give you the bees debuff. - A strange glitch will occur once you paint the Mini-HLNA, and use the Soap item to get rid of the Dye. You will have 2 Mini-HLNAs hovering near you- one painted and one with default coloring. This can be fixed by exiting the ARK and rejoining. (Tested on Singleplayer)
- Another glitch will occur when a Scout or Cruise Missile is used, HLNA will react multiple times to pooping, causing multiple voice lines to be played at once. (Tested on Singleplayer).
- The Mini-HLNA Skin was updated to provide story notes related to the Genesis: Part 1 and Genesis: Part 2 DLCs prior to their releases.
Genesis: Part 1 Notes[]
- HLN-A will often project different emotes to aid in her dialogue.
- In its discoveries, you can access them like a normal explorer note and it repeats the same message HLNA said when you first discovered the note along with interesting visuals.
- With Genesis: Part 1 released, the information in Discovery #1-4 and #10 have been clearly verified.
- The rest of the HLN-A Explorer Notes about how the ARKs, Homo Deus, Genesis Simulation, Element, and Arat Prime tie together may be explained in Genesis: Part 2.
