saber

Sabercat and Sarco act like a hatchet when they attack corpses, they get lots of hide, chitin, keratin but less meat. Raptors are like using [your fists], they don't favor one or the other, it is evenly distributed damage. Rex, Spino, Carno, etc are like pickaxes on corpses, they get loads of meat and little hide/chitin/keratin. So.... Use your saber.

what i tend to do is get an animal that can go in water (doesnt have to go deep) and land with high damage and with a good turning circle then go hunt trilobites and you can get all the chitin you'll need as well as pearls and oil. That said if you just want a big chitin hit i'd reccommend to take a tribe mate with you and go hit up a cave and hunt scorpions and spiders then hatvest them with an axe (again higher damage the better) or take a saber in with you and you'll have chitin for days.

Pike or spear on a dead body results in more Prime meat. So i wouldnt go as far as comparing raptor to one.

Saber with 1500 atk gets between 20 and 40 chitin per scorpion.

This is likely due to the pike's base damage being higher than the pickaxe. Raptors I guess are like harvesting with your fist then, lol.
