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 R-Brontosaurus is a tamable, herbivore creature in ARK: Survival Ascended. Classified under the Variant group.

Starting at 2,209 Health, it's a proper tank. Melee starts at 105% - decent hitting power that scales with level-ups. Stamina sits at 240 base, providing moderate endurance. It carries 1600 base Weight - an enormous weight pool.

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

Once tamed, the R-Brontosaurus pulls double duty as both a capable resource harvester and pack animal. Breeding produces fertilized eggs that hatch within a 28°C–31°C temperature window. Killing a wild R-Brontosaurus yields 22 base XP. It can be cloned at a Cloning Chamber for 0.79 Element plus 0.01 Element per level.
