Ankylo gathering more less than the pickaxe?
I got more ressources with the pick as eith the ankylo.
In the wiki the ankylo have 5 stars for gathering from crystal but i got more with the pick
Pick like 50
Ankylo 10 or something

So i need just 1 hit no matter if i harvest with a tool or a dinosr
I just wonder why he got so less of that
The resource health is your problem...put it back on 1 and you’ll get a lot more of everything

There’s a couple different possibilities for this. If you’re playing on an unofficial server/singleplayer, most likely some kind of setting was changed

The weapons damage and the ankys melee can make a difference in harvesting amounts, as well as the speed each of wich harvests. If you are harvesting this 50 crystal as fast as the anky takes to get 10 than there is a setting wrong somewhere. Normally Ankys harvest not only more but also faster, taking out whole patches of crystal in one or two swings per individual crystal node. Meanwhile a player with the average metal pick takes many swings on a single node and then has to run around to get the next. The map and type of crystal node you hit also matters in this situation. Some nodes on Ragnarok for example are rather poor, either having low initial resource health or generally just made with less available crystal.

Don't judge it based on how good something is at gathering, but rather on how long it takes to get what you need. An anky may get more per swing from each node sure, but it's slow to move and will take longer to get back to base than something like a quetz. If you're early game, it can be a hige help, but later in the game when you have an ascendant pick with good stats, the anky will be a lot less worthwhile due to how slow it is.

No, if your gather settings are on 3x-5x you should be getting a lot more crystal with both an anky and a pickaxe
