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 Ichthyornis is a tamable, flying, piscivore creature in ARK: Survival Ascended. It belongs to the Shoulder Pet category.

Stamina sits at 150 base, providing decent staying power. Melee starts at 100% - respectable melee power that scales with level-ups. Starting at 50 Health, it's very frail. Weight capacity starts at 55, giving it not built for hauling.

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

Once tamed, the Ichthyornis is commonly used for scouting and quick travel between locations. Breeding produces fertilized eggs that hatch within a 29°C–32°C temperature window. A wild Ichthyornis is worth 3 base experience when killed. It can be cloned at a Cloning Chamber for 0.3 Element plus 0.01 Element per level.
