Drops & Harvest Resources
Killing a Brute X-Spino yields Hide, Raw Meat, and Raw Prime Meat. The Hatchet is the best tool for harvesting Hide, the Pick maximizes Raw Meat, and using a Dino (Prime) gives the highest yield of Raw Prime Meat.
| Resource |  Pick |  Hatchet |
|---|---|---|
| 40%~21~17 hits | 60%~32~13 hits | |
| 60%~24~17 hits | 40%~16~13 hits | |
| 14%~4~17 hits | 9%~2~13 hits |
Estimates based on game-extracted data (weights, quantities, harvest multipliers, damage type chains). Each harvest event independently rolls each resource - higher weight = higher drop chance. Actual yields vary with RNG.
