What is a stegosaurus used for? stegosaurus battling strategies in ARK: Survival Evolved.
Stegos, while they may be a little more wimpy than they seem during an encounter, they can hold their own against predators(there’s a reason they can deal damage to the T-Rex in a scrimmage), and they cover a very broad area around the back and side, where most dinos fail to protect themselves, making them a good adventuring help despite their speed and stamina drain.
A super overpowered soaker. With a good saddle and imprint, and mate boost, and yuty buff, this thing is a tank. Can easily soak anything, with its hardened plate, and you can’t be shot off the back of it, meaning you can push up to a death wall with one and put c4 on the wall whilst your stego is soaking and blocking any damage to you. Very amazing soakers, definitely recommend getting them for PvP
One of the best dinos for gathering berries, thatch, and wood. If you are using keyboard and mouse press C to cycle through the harvest modes. Heavy plates is best for thatch, sharpened plates for berries, and hardened plates for wood. Each map has different harvest values for trees and shrubs like Fjordur’s pink lavender flowers yield more berries than Valguero’s shrubbery per swing.
The new TLC update made these guys OP! Now they harvest tons of thatch, wood, and berries with their new plate forms! These guys are like tanks now! I tamed a lv 411 today, and it literally shreds though other dinos! By far I would tame a stego instead of a bronto, or a trike!
