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 VR Kaprosuchus as a tamable, carnivore creature that survivors will encounter in the wild. It belongs to the Variant category.

With 200 base Health, the VR Kaprosuchus is on the squishy side. Its base Melee Damage sits at 100%, giving it respectable melee power. Stamina sits at 350 base, providing good endurance. A base Weight of 140 means a reasonable inventory size.

To tame the VR Kaprosuchus, you need to knock it unconscious using torpor weapons, then feed it while it's down. Regular Kibble is the most effective food for taming, offering the highest affinity per feeding.

As a tame, the VR Kaprosuchus is a versatile tame with a balanced stat spread, useful in a variety of roles. Breeding produces fertilized eggs that hatch within a 29°C–35°C temperature window. A wild VR Kaprosuchus is worth 5 base experience when killed. It can be cloned at a Cloning Chamber for 0.4 Element plus 0.01 Element per level.
