Take 1 Giga, 3 Argies, and a Phoenix for meat runs. Put all birds on follow (player, not Giga, so if you get stuck, stand up in the saddle and they'll fly above you). Argies get black-boxed with raw meat, and all the Prime Meat goes in the Phoenix. By the time you fill the Argies and go back to base, you'll have tons of cooked Prime Meat for recipes and jerky.
Puts the Anklyo to shame. It gathers about the rate of Metal and Obsidian with its claw attack. Have a high level flyer with good carry weight follow you and you will have resources for days.
PS: it will smelt metal for you overtime, so the weight of metal is essentially cut in half.
