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 Triceratops is a tamable, herbivore creature in ARK: Survival Ascended. It belongs to the Soaker category.

With 150 base Stamina, the Triceratops has average stamina. Melee starts at 100% - decent hitting power that scales with level-ups. Starting at 375 Health, it's decently sturdy. A base Weight of 365 means generous inventory space.

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

Once tamed, the Triceratops is valued for its harvesting efficiency, collecting key resources faster than most tools. Breeding produces fertilized eggs that hatch within a 22°C–28°C temperature window. A wild Triceratops is worth 4 base experience when killed. It can be cloned at a Cloning Chamber for 0.23 Element plus 0.01 Element per level.
