For starters,ankyylosaurus is best for getting metal,magmasours are better at gathering metal but it is hard to acquire their egg.
If you need a lot of metal just turn up the harvesting amount and go to those cluster of rock of the rocks by or in the water. It really works don’t tell anyone on you server so that you can kick there@$$ with all your fancy metal tools.
Do you know where to find metal in gen 2...
Just go for shiny rocks and always Cary a weapon and go in low populated places
A great way to get lots if metal: Step 1: Get an argy. Step 2: Mine metal on a mountain and put it in your argy's inventory. (Not yours!) Step 3: get lots of metal, argy's have a 50% reduction. Step 4: Go back, and refine your metal into ingots.
Use Anklo level up melee and weight to collect max metal
Magmasaur or a apprentice+ mining drill in an abb surface entrance or abb blue zone is amazing metal harvesting tactic
Magmasaur is faster than anky on the ground, and gathers more, you don’t need a flier
You can find them on top of house with a lot of rocks
Find river rocks with a ankylo and hello metal
Thanks guys I’ve gone to herbivore island at the bottom right of the map and on my first run there I’ve gotten around 1,000 metal!! Planning to go back there ever once in a while!
I would just like to say:
Rest In Peace Herbi, you will be missed.
Do not go one the mountains, it’s very dangerous it’s much better near the redwoods but there’s sill terror birds
In my opinion a phoenix is the best because you can just fly to the location
Link your Stryder to a dedi box with metal..
Metal for DAYS!!!
Just getting rock with my metal hatch and as a joke say I bet I can get metal with this knowing you can't do that and then I get one metal with it like wtf how
Ankys are really good for collecting metal you don’t even need to go to the mountains and risk becoming a Rex snack just go to the river and break river rocks you get 4 metal per hit on a rock and it takes an anky about 4 hits to break a river rock so that’s about 16 metal per river rock and they are very common
Mid game use anky+argy on rag highlands many metal nodes
