—TIP TIME—

PASSIVE, AGGRESSIVE OR NEUTRAL?

Ankylosaurus(or anky, as they are more commonly called) are very tanky, relatively small dinosaurs. They are docile, which means they attack only when provoked. MAKE SURE to maintain distance, as that big boulder can tear through you! THE EASIEST way is through tranq arrows, as these dinos are not strong enough to really waste tranq darts on.

TAMING

The easiest way to tame it is through tranqs(like i said). Arrows from a crossbow or even an ascendant bow (cough cough mobile players) are enough to knock this lil beast. Feed any fruit or vegetable(rare ones increase taming speed such as rockarrot, savoroot or longrass) or even kibble. Wait for a bit and bingo, you got an anky!

USES

These guys are BEASTS at harvesting metal and flint, and while only unlocking their saddle at LEVEL 36, these guys are great early game gatherers to create your needed smithy tools and fabricated tools. They also have an 85% WEIGHT REDUCTION on metal, which make them great for transporting metal over decent distances. I say decent because of their abysmal speed, which is only fair because of their bulkiness. THE BEST way to go on metal runs with these guys is with an Argy. Now, they don’t unlock early, so be wary, but Argies have a 50% WEIGHT REDUCTION on ores, because they have a smithy on their back, so, pick up your Anky with your Argy and start the metal runs!

Hope this helps!
