If you want a lot and your on the island go to the swamp on the right of the map with a dung beetle and kill meganuera so you also get cementing paste too
The way I get about 2000 chitin in 5 mins I go to the cave in E1 with a high level bary and he can tank some hits while also doing great damage.
What should this be the skin of the bugs or the insides
It looks like chocolate btw
Dont tell me you dont know how to spell it its ky-tin not chitin
I made the same mistake dont worry
On Crystal Isles go to the savanna area in the middle of the map and hit the ant hills with a doedicurus
Chainsaw very good at getting lots of it
On mobile go to the first cave and just kill kill kill kill kill with a bow for about an hour and you’ll have around 5-15k
I'm not exactly smart, but I got a barryonyx just for cave runs, and lava cave or north east cave give tons of chitin, my slightly boosted server yeildes about 1-1 1/2 k chitin, and if you go northeast cave then you can also raid carbo island for pulmonos. Happy arking!
find some bugs and get a metal axe and your good
Wolves are best for chitin gathering. They are basically saber tooth cats but wolves can use a helmet in mobile significantly increasing their durability. Also wolves are easier to find as they roam in packs and when they howl for pack bonus it's the perfect time to bola and trap them or yoink via argentaivis. Also, wolves don't need saddles to ride so that's a plus and two wolves can get a pack buff in mobile.
May be a little more difficult but mantis seem to drop a lot! On a official at 1x I would get 250 to 300 per kill, on a crystal wyvern mind you, you might be able to get more with proper mount/ tool
Is weird that a horse can carry half of the chitin
Pike is better than Ace Easy I got 400 using it on those sea roaches
Clemson
Do a few laps around carno island with anything that gathers chitin and you'll have plenty
I think using griffins to collect this item in ark mobile sucks one if your taming a griffin to get this item and the griffin will take almost a 2 days to tame and constantly wake up and will be faster if you use a x10 or x5 taming cream and now they only eat prime meat! Which rots very fast so use a raptor to your advantage!
I use my chaccotramiam to get chiten
I breeded out a boss megatherium and or a tamed megatherium(Preferably Boss Megatherium so it doesn’t die) I went to the swamp cave in the red woods and got about half a dedi box full of chitin.
Use a moshops and go kill trillobites. When you harvest you get like 280 chitin
Use moshops and kill the trillobite and you get loads of chitin
