Aberrant Carnotaurus
Calculate expected resource yield per node for any dino. Select a node type and harvester.
Each hit on a node generates resource drops. The game randomly picks a resource from the loot table for each drop. Higher melee depletes the node faster, which can reduce total drops. The "best" melee is where you get the most drops.
Compare dino harvest yields from creature corpses. Select a corpse and up to 3 harvesters to compare.
Each hit on a corpse generates resource drops based on damage dealt. The game randomly picks a resource from the corpse's loot table for each drop. Higher melee depletes the corpse faster, which can reduce total drops. All dinos get the same resource distribution from a given corpse - the difference is total drops from base damage.
ARK: Survival Ascended features the Aberrant Carnotaurus as a tamable, carnivore creature that survivors will encounter in the wild. It falls within the Variant classification.
Its base Stamina of 300 gives it decent staying power. Its base Melee Damage sits at 106%, giving it respectable melee power. Starting at 403 Health, it's moderately tough. It carries 300 base Weight - good carrying capacity.
To tame the Aberrant Carnotaurus, you need to knock it unconscious using torpor weapons, then feed it while it's down. Regular Kibble is the most effective food for taming, offering the highest affinity per feeding.
As a tame, the Aberrant Carnotaurus earns its keep through resource gathering, making tedious farming runs much faster. Breeding produces fertilized eggs that hatch within a 26°C–32°C temperature window. Killing a wild Aberrant Carnotaurus yields 18 base XP. It can be cloned at a Cloning Chamber for 0.26 Element plus 0.01 Element per level.
