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.
Found throughout the ARKs, the Dimetrodon is a tamable, carnivore creature in ARK: Survival Ascended. It belongs to the Breeding category.
Dealing 100% base Melee Damage, the Dimetrodon brings decent hitting power to the table. The Dimetrodon has 350 base Health - reasonably durable. With 300 base Stamina, the Dimetrodon has moderate endurance. Weight capacity starts at 250, giving it generous inventory space.
You'll need to knock the Dimetrodon unconscious before taming it. Tranquilizers are the standard approach. For best results, use Regular Kibble - it gives the highest taming efficiency.
Once tamed, the Dimetrodon is primarily used for resource harvesting, excelling at gathering specific materials. It reproduces by laying eggs, which must be incubated between 30°C and 34°C. Defeating one in the wild grants 4 base XP. It can be cloned at a Cloning Chamber for 0.08 Element plus 0 Element per level.
