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 Brute Bloodstalker as a carnivore creature that survivors will encounter in the wild.
The Brute Bloodstalker has 2,600 base Health - a proper tank. Its base Melee Damage sits at 100%, giving it respectable melee power. Stamina sits at 550 base, providing good endurance. A base Weight of 400 means good carrying capacity.
The Brute Bloodstalker is a wild creature that cannot be tamed through conventional methods. Breeding produces fertilized eggs that hatch within a 27°C–30°C temperature window. Killing a wild Brute Bloodstalker yields 100 base XP. It can be cloned at a Cloning Chamber for 0.35 Element plus 0.01 Element per level.
