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.

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 Araneo as a tamable, carnivore creature that survivors will encounter in the wild.

Stamina sits at 100 base, providing limited endurance. Its base Melee Damage sits at 100%, giving it respectable melee power. With 150 base Health, the Araneo is not particularly tanky. It carries 100 base Weight - average weight tolerance.

The Araneo is passively tamed - approach it carefully and feed it by hand without knocking it out. Its preferred food is Spoiled Meat.

Once tamed, the Araneo is primarily used for resource harvesting, excelling at gathering specific materials. Breeding produces fertilized eggs that hatch within a 4°C–12°C temperature window. It can be cloned at a Cloning Chamber for 0.04 Element plus 0.01 Element per level.
