Ankylosaurus
The Ankylosaurus is a heavily armored herbivore specializing in harvesting metal and other mineral resources. Its durable body and crushing tail make it a sturdy, if slow, defensive mount.
Player-written tips for taming, using, and fighting the Ankylosaurus in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
He can harvest a lot of metal. That’s it.
always carry more tranqs than needed,these things are unpredictable. also just run backwards and hit them and they knock out.
Tame an argy and an ankylo. Pick him with argy and move him to volcano top. And u will never have to worry about iron. : |
This bad boy is an easy tame and can farm metal like a boss you need this
If you need to get around the map with your anky, but don’t yet have the coveted argy, stick to the waterways. Swimming is faster than sprinting, or you can put it on a raft.
With 2 players u can pick up your anky with your argentavis and gather metal quick without walking
They spawn On the island in the winter biome on the beach
Tame one anky on herbivore island and get some metal
Just pick your anky up with your argy with good weight and go on a giant metal run -ItsHman2701
Very good at harvisting thousands of metal (BRING AN ARGY TO GET METAL)
They say the metal pick is better than an ankylosaur harvesting the crystal, wrong. I've tested plenty of times to know for a fact that the anky is possibly 3x better (or more) than the metal pick is at harvesting it, use an anky instead!
Ok listen to me you should not tame one of these unless you have an argy of any other flyer greater than or equal to and argy. To tame one of these just fly around on your flyer and try to find a level that you desire. Once you find a good anky shoot it a couple times with a…
Ok listen to me you should not tame one of these unless you have an argy of any other flyer greater than or equal to and argy. To tame one of these just fly around on your flyer and try to find a level that you desire. Once you find a good anky shoot it a couple times with a crossbow and it should go down you shouldn't need a trap. After you knock it out in a safe area get berries from nearby bushes and tame it.
Ankylosaurus and Argentavis are the true metal men
They good for metal
Metal is good
Next to them being the best metal ore miners of the Ark galaxy, I found them pretty good at mining obsidian too. I would take them the to the Arctic center on Gen for example and harvest both resources at once with one smooth chop of its tail.
For the mid-game players [ARK MOBILE] slightly teetering towards the noob side, specifically if you have already reached Level 35 and up, I highly recommend flying/swimming to Herbivore Island (it is on the SouthEast side of the map {I’m not good with coordinates but it’s…
For the mid-game players [ARK MOBILE] slightly teetering towards the noob side, specifically if you have already reached Level 35 and up, I highly recommend flying/swimming to Herbivore Island (it is on the SouthEast side of the map {I’m not good with coordinates but it’s at around 82,84}. It’s separated by a chunk of land infiltrated by the Megalodon (so you need to either have a strong swimmer Dino or a flier). You can tame it there safely as there are NO LAND PREDATORS, just don’t aggro the herbivores by accident. Once you tame it, just fly or swim back to your base and Request the Dino and it will teleport to you. Easy! This advice is for people who are still intimidated by taming due to aggressive predators ALWAYS near the Anky in the mainland. For Bonus Points: Sometimes Mantas killed by the Megalodon will end up on shore so free fish meat! I hope this helps someone, have a great day!
These dudes are all over herbivore island (where I live) and I have like 15 of these guys all max level and every once in a while I take one to fight alphas. It works very well
People say that make ankys wave there tails to attract females. What would happen if one got to close? The’d be launched half way across the map cause they wanted to investigate!
Anky’s are the best Dino’s to farm metal and other things. You can also make a mega combo by getting on an Argy, carry the Anky, ask a tribe mate to do the same thing and BOOM more metal. Mega metal run!
P.S beware of Titanos dancing on the mountain. ;)
Powerful and a Tank, if you are lowlevel will be a great defensive tool.
