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.

The Brute Plesiosaur, an aquatic, carnivore creature in ARK: Survival Ascended, is well-known across multiple maps.

Health-wise, the Brute Plesiosaur sits at 5,100 base, making it extraordinarily tanky. Dealing 100% base Melee Damage, the Brute Plesiosaur brings solid damage output to the table. Its base Stamina of 1200 gives it outstanding staying power. Weight capacity starts at 1200, giving it massive inventory space.

The Brute Plesiosaur cannot be tamed and must be dealt with through combat or avoidance. Breeding is via live birth rather than eggs, simplifying the process. Defeating one in the wild grants 30 base XP. It can be cloned at a Cloning Chamber for 0.42 Element plus 0.01 Element per level.
