Winter Drakeling
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.
ARK: Survival Ascended features the Winter Drakeling as a tamable, flying, carnivore creature that survivors will encounter in the wild. It belongs to the Shoulder Pet category.
Its base Stamina of 150 gives it average stamina. Its base Melee Damage sits at 100%, giving it respectable melee power. The Winter Drakeling has 150 base Health - not particularly tanky. Weight capacity starts at 65, giving it very limited carrying capacity.
As a tame, the Winter Drakeling works well as a reconnaissance mount, offering fast travel and a bird's-eye view of the terrain. Breeding produces fertilized eggs that hatch within a -40°C–-37°C temperature window. It can be cloned at a Cloning Chamber for 0.28 Element plus 0.01 Element per level.
