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.

The Dodo is a tamable, herbivore creature in ARK: Survival Ascended. It belongs to the Misc category.

Stamina sits at 100 base, providing tires quickly. Melee starts at 100% - solid damage output that scales with level-ups. The Dodo has 40 base Health - extremely fragile. Weight capacity starts at 50, giving it minimal inventory space.

The Dodo is a knockout tame: apply enough torpor to knock it out, then place food in its inventory. Feed it Basic Kibble for the fastest tame and highest effectiveness bonus.

After taming, the Dodo earns its keep through resource gathering, making tedious farming runs much faster. Breeding produces fertilized eggs that hatch within a 22°C–30°C temperature window. A wild Dodo is worth 0.5 base experience when killed. It can be cloned at a Cloning Chamber for 0.01 Element plus 0 Element per level.
