Raw Prime MeatEach 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 Desmodus is a tamable, carnivore creature in ARK: Survival Ascended. It falls within the Flyer classification.
Melee starts at 100% - respectable melee power that scales with level-ups. At 325 base HP, the Desmodus is reasonably durable. Its base Stamina of 500 gives it solid stamina reserves. It carries 350 base Weight - generous inventory space.
The Desmodus is passively tamed - approach it carefully and feed it by hand without knocking it out. Its preferred food is Blood Pack.
Once tamed, the Desmodus is valued for its harvesting efficiency, collecting key resources faster than most tools. A wild Desmodus is worth 3 base experience when killed. It can be cloned at a Cloning Chamber for 0.67 Element plus 0.01 Element per level.
