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.

Found throughout the ARKs, the X-Dunkleosteus is a tamable, aquatic, carnivore creature in ARK: Survival Ascended. Classified under the Variant group.

The X-Dunkleosteus has 689 base Health - quite durable. With 105% base Melee Damage, the X-Dunkleosteus has respectable melee power. Its base Stamina of 200 gives it decent staying power. It carries 910 base Weight - massive inventory space.

You'll need to knock the X-Dunkleosteus unconscious before taming it. Tranquilizers are the standard approach. Superior Kibble is the most effective food for taming, offering the highest affinity per feeding.

As a tame, the X-Dunkleosteus is well-suited for deep-sea exploration, cave diving, and ocean resource runs. Breeding is via live birth rather than eggs, simplifying the process. Defeating one in the wild grants 12 base XP. It can be cloned at a Cloning Chamber for 0.43 Element plus 0.01 Element per level.
