... you kill a primeval, all of this info is in the Pugnacia Dino Guide in game.

Been running this mod on a fresh server since last monday. I have been killing Primevals and Bosses spawned by the Acension Portal for the last three days and not a single creature I kill dops the Primeval Energy item. I get tons of Primal Hide literally thousands per kill and usually a Prime Meat.

Is there some kind of Game.INI parameter I need to enter to start or increase the drop chance of Primeval Energy? I know you have to add a Harvest Setting to configure PrimalHide, and will probably dial that value down abit based on my gameplay result.

Primals drop Primal hide and Prime Meat.
Primevals like the dodorex, dodo-wyvern, manticore, etc drop the primeval energy and it usually shows up in your player inventory during the kill, not on your dino.

How are you killing the World Bosses without using tamed Primevals?

I'm currently using Primal Mounts to kill the Primevals and Bosses. I have it set on my server so they have 500 Levels to level up, so a 840 Primaal, Instant Kibbled Tamed, and then max levelled with the aid of unicorn poop can be competitive against the Primevals and Bosses.

Though I wonder if something is off on my server as the Bosses only seem to appear at Levels of 16 or 28. I also have never seen an Indominus higher then 503. Everything else I can find eventually at 840.

As for the Primal Energy, I realised tonight that Dodorex Energy, Dodo-Wyvern Energy, Phoenix Energy etc when placed in the Pugnacia Smithy can be used with Prime Meat to make the Boss Taming Food. Even though the Smithy and the Pugnacia Guide specifically state a resource called Primal Energy. Seems that is where it can confuse people as the information in game is talking as though the Primal Energy is a different resource then what you actually get when you kill creatures.
