R-Quetzal
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 R-Quetzal, a tamable, flying, carnivore creature in ARK: Survival Ascended, is a common sight across multiple maps. It falls within the Variant classification.
With 1,164 base Health, the R-Quetzal is impressively tough. With 105% base Melee Damage, the R-Quetzal has decent hitting power. Stamina sits at 800 base, providing outstanding staying power. Weight capacity starts at 800, giving it massive inventory space.
You'll need to knock the R-Quetzal unconscious before taming it. Tranquilizers are the standard approach. For best results, use Exceptional Kibble - it gives the highest taming efficiency.
Once tamed, the R-Quetzal is prized as a flying transport, capable of hauling large inventories over long distances. It reproduces by laying eggs, which must be incubated between 5°C and 6°C. A wild R-Quetzal is worth 18 base experience when killed. It can be cloned at a Cloning Chamber for 0.98 Element plus 0.1 Element per level.
