Raw Meat

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 Velonasaur as a tamable, carnivore creature that survivors will encounter in the wild. Classified under the DMG group.
Its base Stamina of 325 gives it moderate endurance. Its base Melee Damage sits at 100%, giving it solid damage output. With 440 base Health, the Velonasaur is decently sturdy. Weight capacity starts at 325, giving it good carrying capacity.
To tame the Velonasaur, you need to knock it unconscious using torpor weapons, then feed it while it's down. Feed it Regular Kibble for the fastest tame and highest effectiveness bonus.
After taming, the Velonasaur is primarily used for resource harvesting, excelling at gathering specific materials. Breeding produces fertilized eggs that hatch within a 28°C–32°C temperature window. Killing a wild Velonasaur yields 1 base XP. It can be cloned at a Cloning Chamber for 0.32 Element plus 0.01 Element per level.
