Lost Malwyn
In ARK: Survival Ascended, Lost Malwyn occupies the wild niche - roams the ARK as a wild, untamable creature. Untamable in the traditional sense, Lost Malwyn fields 425 base Weight, providing a solid weight pool when survivors meet it in the wild. Reproduction is by live birth following gestation; juveniles mature requiring significant patience. Once tamed it harvests Hide, Raw Meat, Pelt more efficiently than most player tools. Treat encounters with situational awareness rather than taming intent.
Lost Malwyn does not currently spawn on any ARK: Survival Ascended map, or spawn data is not yet available.
Lost Malwyn is not tamable.
6 base × 15.9 level × 4 × 1.25× wild kill × 1× server

Different tools yield different quantities - check the table below to pick the right tool for the resource you need. Generally, a Pick favors meat while a Hatchet favors hide and secondary materials.
Estimates based on game-extracted data (weights, quantities, harvest multipliers, damage type chains). Each harvest event independently rolls each resource - higher weight = higher drop chance. Actual yields vary with RNG.
