Metal Nodes
Stone
MetalEach 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.

Raw Meat
Hide
Raw Prime MeatEach 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 Solwyn as a tamable, carnivore creature that survivors will encounter in the wild. It falls within the DMG classification.
Its base Stamina of 400 gives it solid stamina reserves. Its base Melee Damage sits at 100%, giving it solid damage output. With 650 base Health, the Solwyn is solidly tanky. A base Weight of 375 means a solid weight pool.
To tame the Solwyn, you need to knock it unconscious using torpor weapons, then feed it while it's down. Feed it Raw Mutton for the fastest tame and highest effectiveness bonus.
After taming, the Solwyn is valued for its harvesting efficiency, collecting key resources faster than most tools. It gives live birth after a gestation period, making breeding straightforward. A wild Solwyn is worth 6 base experience when killed. It can be cloned at a Cloning Chamber for 0.58 Element plus 0.01 Element per level.
