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.

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 Griffin is a tamable, flying, carnivore creature in ARK: Survival Ascended. It belongs to the Flyer category.

Stamina sits at 225 base, providing moderate endurance. With 100% base Melee Damage, the Griffin has respectable melee power. At 950 base HP, the Griffin is solidly tanky. Weight capacity starts at 280, giving it good carrying capacity.

You'll need to knock the Griffin unconscious before taming it. Tranquilizers are the standard approach. Extraordinary Kibble is the most effective food for taming, offering the highest affinity per feeding.

As a tame, the Griffin is a versatile flyer useful for scouting, traversal, and light transport. It reproduces by laying eggs, which must be incubated between 12°C and 16°C. Defeating one in the wild grants 3 base XP. It can be cloned at a Cloning Chamber for 0.68 Element plus 0.01 Element per level.
