Poison Talon — Detailed Guide
A trophy spent on tributes
The Poison Talon is a trophy item in ARK: Survival Evolved and ARK: Survival Ascended. Its description reads: "This trophy proves your worth as a hunter." It is not unlocked through an engram. The talon is used as a tribute ingredient: it goes into portal recipes in both games and, in ASA, into one summon as well.
Recipes that use it
Our recipe data counts 5 recipes in ASA and 4 in ASE. The four that both games share are portal tributes:
Generate Manticore (Gamma) Portal: 2 talons
Generate Manticore (Beta) Portal: 10 talons
Generate Manticore (Alpha) Portal: 20 talons
Generate Scorched Earth Portal: 10 talons
Only the ASA list adds a fifth: Summon Kalydonios & Erymanthian, which takes 5 talons.
Finding and storing talons
Our loot data has a single source for the talon: the 
Poison Wyvern entry can contain it. Our records list the item on 3 maps, Scorched Earth, Ragnarok and Astraeos. Each talon weighs 1 and they stack to 100, which makes a full stack weigh 100. The largest single cost in our data is the 20 talons for the 
Manticore (Alpha) portal.
