Description:
A firm, flexible piece of skin harvested from an insect
Just take a like to the cave of the hunter. Get like 1000 chitin in a few minutes.
Should have a section of what dinosaurs and animals that eats chitin. Js, it'd be useful to have.
Kill the megachelon and grind its shells! -Nomads
I took a dire wolf into the swamp cave and left with 10,000 chitin. I would have taken another 5k but I didn’t have enough weight
Valguero spider cave + Megatherium = Unlimited Chitin
To get chitin,just use a dire wolf to finish the cave you will have more than 3K chititn
Someone needs to make a good chitin tip!!!! PLS SOMEONE OUT THERE PLS MAKE A GOOD CHITIN TIP
For people just starting out, trilobites on the beach are an amazing choice, giving around 50bper kill with a metal hatchet
If you use a sarco and kill the snails around swamps, you can get lots!
It would be cool if they added chitin wepons like a sword that’s light to carry or a type of bow
Carno Island has scorpions with give Ching
Zkill meglacheon grind shell fragment in grinder
Yoou will have to never colect chitin in you life if you grind 1k shell fragment in industrial grinderbcz

*For Aberration OR maps with the Karkinos*
Mid game strategy: Bring any of your mobile hard-hitting Tames with decent weight, kill any Karkinos, but make sure to harvest the corpse with a chainsaw. Voila, you've not only gotten thousands of Chitin, but also thousands of Organic Polymer in likely under 15 minutes. With a x3 harvest server, I could easily net ~1k Chitin per crab with a prim chainsaw.
If 7 want alot of chiten kill matisis no matter what u use youll usually get at least a hundred. If you use a megatherium u got almost 1000 with a tame. U got a breed one your looking at 1500 each mantis
Go to any cave filled with bugs on a Megatherium and with a Sinomacrops
New best way to farm chitin take a magmasaur or anky to the Sahara on crystal isles and harvest the titanomyrma nests
Take your crystal wyvern to the volcano area on ragnarok and chomp all the mantis over there and you can get a full inventory of chitin in two seconds
I used a chainsaw and got way more then the hatchet, so I would use that if you haven’t got a tame that does it better.
