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.
The Beelzebufo, a tamable, carnivore creature in ARK: Survival Ascended, is well-known across multiple maps. Classified under the Farmer group.
The Beelzebufo has 220 base Health - not particularly tanky. With 100% base Melee Damage, the Beelzebufo has solid damage output. With 190 base Stamina, the Beelzebufo has average stamina. A base Weight of 160 means average weight tolerance.
You'll need to knock the Beelzebufo unconscious before taming it. Tranquilizers are the standard approach. For best results, use Regular Kibble - it gives the highest taming efficiency.
As a tame, the Beelzebufo is valued for its harvesting efficiency, collecting key resources faster than most tools. It reproduces by laying eggs, which must be incubated between -75°C and 75°C. It can be cloned at a Cloning Chamber for 0.57 Element plus 0.01 Element per level.
