If you can tame an argy and an ankylo and just go everywhere you can find metal then you won’t have to worry about having to take your argy and ankylo then have to drop your Ankylo and get metal all you have to do is fly over metal and hit R2 or RT ( I think for XBOX) and you should have it in your ankylo

4 tranq arrows + random ankylo + berries or crops = tamed ankylo

Empty it’s inventory go to a mountain (preferably one with lots of metal Obsidian stone and crystal ) request it and just let it go ham on the resources

If you want to use these in space on Gen 2, don’t. Just use a mining drill, it’s better and you don’t have to drag any creatures around.

Magmasaurs are better then ankies, but Magmasaurs are only available in Gen 1, so use an anky if you can't get/don't want to get a magmasaur.

Do not get in the way of a level 321 one of these and a level 1 giga

As of the July update it seems they no longer collect oil underwater with their tail swipe.

When your going after it just run and then you will have a perfect shot to the head

Believe it or not, they are just as good at fighting as they are utility dinos. They have really far knockback and good melee. I've taken on packs of raptors, allos, and carnos with ease.

I have an Ankylosaurus at Herbivore Island that I use for metal mining. Since this is coming from ARK Mobile, the metal rocks resplendent rather quickly. Because of all of this, I have 500+ metal ingots stored up in my smithy, ready to be used for something late-game. Tame an Ankylosaurus at Herbivore Island, they will get you all of the metal. Just make sure your Ankylosaurus has good weight for maximum efficiency.

Yeah, ankys are really good for metal, but people don’t realize that if you need berries, wood, or thatch, ankys are really good

These are like the the BEST tames for a beginner!!! So easy to tame if you have tranq arrows and a berry garden!

It will be in redwoods, herbivores island and along slopes of the volcano mountain. Tame a guy, put him in the volcano, setup a forge, there will be ton of metal, obsedian and crystal. You will have huge source of metal ingot.

No one is talking about this but the anky has two attacks, but I do not know all resource gathering this is from my experience.

First (R2, I play ps4): good for metal, thatch, stone, and flint.

Second (L2): good for berries and wood (from small trees that are on SE)

That is it hope it helped :)

It is the second best metal gatherer but super slow so bring argents to grind metal effectively. It also becomes useless once you have a magmasaur.

If you don’t have a Dunkle yet for oil gathering, these guys are pretty good at it too, but have some dung beetles for producing oil too so you can have a home source.

I just tamed a level 100 with around 60 tranq arrows and a bow so look at the knock out guide

If your on mobile go the volcano teleport him and start getting it take the metal and go home also they great harvesters they dumb to they followed a doedcuris into my trap the just walkt un there I dint even touch them to

Me and my tribe mate were pretty new to the game and we needed metal as we were always low on rifel ammo so we got Anklo we got two .For some reason we got 2 level 50 end 73 they both were mates and they're perfect for going to mountains now we collect metal in duos with both and it is efficient
