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.

The Ice Elemental is a tamable, minerals creature in ARK: Survival Ascended. Classified under the Variant group.

Melee starts at 100% - respectable melee power that scales with level-ups. At 25,000 base HP, the Ice Elemental is extraordinarily tanky. Stamina sits at 300 base, providing decent staying power. A base Weight of 660 means massive inventory space.

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

Once tamed, the Ice Elemental is a practical workhorse - it can both gather and haul resources efficiently. Defeating one in the wild grants 50 base XP. It can be cloned at a Cloning Chamber for 0.88 Element plus 0.01 Element per level.
