Pyromane
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.
Found throughout the ARKs, the Pyromane is a tamable, carnivore creature in ARK: Survival Ascended. It belongs to the Shoulder Pet category.
Stamina sits at 350 base, providing good endurance. With 100% base Melee Damage, the Pyromane has solid damage output. The Pyromane has 600 base Health - impressively tough. It carries 300 base Weight - good carrying capacity.
As a tame, the Pyromane is primarily used for resource harvesting, excelling at gathering specific materials. Breeding is via live birth rather than eggs, simplifying the process. Defeating one in the wild grants 5 base XP. It can be cloned at a Cloning Chamber for 0.95 Element plus 0.01 Element per level.
