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 Archelon as a tamable, aquatic, herbivore creature that survivors will encounter in the wild. Classified under the Water group.

With 775 base Stamina, the Archelon has exceptional endurance. Its base Melee Damage sits at 100%, giving it decent hitting power. Health-wise, the Archelon sits at 1,400 base, making it extremely durable. A base Weight of 1000 means massive inventory space.

The Archelon is passively tamed - approach it carefully and feed it by hand without knocking it out. Its preferred food is Superior Kibble.

Once tamed, the Archelon is a versatile aquatic mount for underwater exploration and resource gathering. Breeding produces fertilized eggs that hatch within a 26°C–29°C temperature window. It can be cloned at a Cloning Chamber for 0.91 Element plus 0.01 Element per level.
