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

Stamina sits at 100 base, providing tires quickly. Melee starts at 100% - solid damage output that scales with level-ups. Health-wise, the Microraptor sits at 130 base, making it extremely fragile. It carries 45 base Weight - not built for hauling.

The Microraptor is a knockout tame: apply enough torpor to knock it out, then place food in its inventory. For best results, use Rare Flower - it gives the highest taming efficiency.

As a tame, the Microraptor is commonly used for scouting and quick travel between locations. Breeding produces fertilized eggs that hatch within a 24°C–28°C temperature window. Defeating one in the wild grants 1 base XP. It can be cloned at a Cloning Chamber for 0.34 Element plus 0.01 Element per level.
