This guide will teach you how to determine the damage of your dinosaur based off of the base levels provided on the wiki[ark.gamepedia.com].

Me and a friend made a web based dinosaur damage calculator, you can find it here[ark-damage.info]. Just use this[www.survive-ark.com] instead, it's updated faster than ours was.

You will need to get the base damage for the Dinosaur you're calculating from here[ark.gamepedia.com].

Then find out what it's melee damage percentage is, this can be found at the bottom right of the dinosaur's inventory.

Then apply it to the following algorithm:

Base Damage * (Melee Damage Percentage / 100) = Dinosaur Damage


You have a Raptor with a melee percentage stat of 350%.

The calculation from above would then look like this:

15 * (350 / 100) = 52.5

Raptor damage = 52.5

The base damage of some dinosaurs may be incorrect, see notes/trivia section of wiki.
