What tool for trilobites?

[Fabio]

Sorry for bad spelling. But I tried all three and I can't honestly tell.

[Crowbar al Dente]

I think the metal axe is the most optimal choice. :)

[Rage]

Megalodon works fine for me

[Blahhh]

T-Rex

[Buck Fell]

Pick for more oil. Axe for more chitin (at least from what I can tell).

[JasonB]

Axe for chittin not sure whats best for oil/pearls. Pick for meat.

Nothing works for me axe or pick i hit it forever and no loot pops, only when my dino attacks them do i get loot, same with ants and dragonflies...

just smash it forever with an axe and the axe breaks... on my official server..

This was my assessment as well. Pearls too with the pick, so I use the pick.

That's because you're playing on an official server. That is due to ping/lag. Doesn't happen on singleplayer or small pop servers.

Which is fine. As long as you're informed. This was one of the many reasons I stopped playing on an official server. Flying dino corpses, rubberbanding, dino taming limit, and just general griefing/douchbaggery being the others. I haven't looked back. Enjoy.

I'll just quit Ark i'm not gonna play on an unofficial server, they have even more issues than what i'm experiencing.. not worth the frustration.

actually, it will happen on grades (i.e. hills) to where no matter how many times you hit it it won't give you anything and you end up breaking your tool, yet dino's one bite them and they are gone. It's not only because of ping/lag as this effect can be reproduced on single player.

Same as with the ants, if its on a slope hit the downhill edge to harvest.
To kill it I use a pike, I put 20-25 arrows into a level 72 from a crossbow, damn thing looked like a porcupine by the time it stopped.
