Calculate expected resource yield per node for any dino. Select a node type and harvester.
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.
Compare dino harvest yields from creature corpses. Select a corpse and up to 3 harvesters to compare.
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 Malfunctioned Tek Raptor, a carnivore creature in ARK: Survival Ascended, is a notable presence across multiple maps.
Its base Stamina of 150 gives it decent staying power. With 100% base Melee Damage, the Malfunctioned Tek Raptor has decent hitting power. With 200 base Health, the Malfunctioned Tek Raptor is not particularly tanky. A base Weight of 140 means modest carrying capacity.
The Malfunctioned Tek Raptor cannot be tamed and must be dealt with through combat or avoidance. It reproduces by laying eggs, which must be incubated between 20°C and 28°C. A wild Malfunctioned Tek Raptor is worth 3 base experience when killed. It can be cloned at a Cloning Chamber for 0.23 Element plus 0.01 Element per level.
