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.

ARK: Survival Ascended features the R-Equus as a tamable, herbivore creature that survivors will encounter in the wild. It falls within the Variant classification.

Its base Melee Damage sits at 105%, giving it solid damage output. At 233 base HP, the R-Equus is not particularly tanky. With 560 base Stamina, the R-Equus has respectable staying power. A base Weight of 350 means generous inventory space.

This is a passive tame: no tranquilizers needed. Get close without startling it, then offer food from your last hotbar slot. Its preferred food is Rockarrot.

As a tame, the R-Equus earns its keep through resource gathering, making tedious farming runs much faster. It gives live birth after a gestation period, making breeding straightforward. A wild R-Equus is worth 1 base experience when killed. It can be cloned at a Cloning Chamber for 0.44 Element plus 0.01 Element per level.
