Chalicotherium
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.
Found throughout the ARKs, the Chalicotherium is a tamable, herbivore creature in ARK: Survival Ascended. It belongs to the Misc category.
With 100% base Melee Damage, the Chalicotherium has decent hitting power. Starting at 600 Health, it's impressively tough. With 300 base Stamina, the Chalicotherium has decent staying power. It carries 400 base Weight - good carrying capacity.
The Chalicotherium is passively tamed - approach it carefully and feed it by hand without knocking it out. Its preferred food is Beer Jar.
Once tamed, the Chalicotherium earns its keep through resource gathering, making tedious farming runs much faster. Breeding is via live birth rather than eggs, simplifying the process. A wild Chalicotherium is worth 6 base experience when killed. It can be cloned at a Cloning Chamber for 0.27 Element plus 0.01 Element per level.
