Player-written tips for taming, using, and fighting the Ankylosaurus in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.

Ankylos are not useless even in the wild. If you're being chased by a carnivore, run to them. They are very strong depending on its level. And they usually spawn on groups, which means they can kill anything easily.

these guys are good metal harvesters with a metal carrying bonus you can carry 100 metal and it’s only 25 weight these guys are slow tho so pump some levels in to speed lime 210 speed. Up if this was helpful

Sadly the anky does not have the ability to swing at rocks when held by an argy in Ark ultimate mobile edition(though for some reason the doed does have it). But they are still very good for gathering metal and other stuff! One way í do it is bro grabbing the anky with my…

These guys aren’t the fastest walkers but man in the water they are super fast I learnt if you use the attack ability while in the water it makes you go slightly faster

Not sure if anyone's said this one yet but if you hit the attack to gather berries and immidiatley after hit the other attack button it will gather berries in a full circle around it. Quickly maxes you out on berries by far the best way to gather berries/cactus sap

He is very strong, but he is very slow, and he can also break Big Rocks and metal deposits, it is better to use him not as an attacking dino, but as a miner who will help you mine metal.

Just back up with a lot of rocks and with at least 4 different slingshots (of taming a level 95-155) and start shooting at it that's what I do

To tame need mejoberries prob spelt that wrong lol but you need that and either crossbow with tranq arrows or longneck rifle with tranq darts and I would bring about 10-15 narcotics I hope this helps plz like

On mobile, it wont gather automatically like the Deod does. You have to strap an anky saddle to gather metal with it unfortunately

I've heard that you aren't supposed to level the melee past 800, because it will 1 shot the rich metal nodes giving you less metal, instead of two hits, which would give you more metal.

one of these buggers killed my iguanodon, Speckles. I flickin loved that iguanodon. so I did what any sane and reasonable person would do and stole its wife. she's treated like a queen now.

Get an argy first then find one of these guys, pick ‘em up, and drop them somewhere safe. Shoot the anky until knocked out and tame. P.S make sure your argy is on passive mode.

To the person who said to transfer metal to a argy with nothing but weight, dont. Anklos reduce the weight of metal so it would be easier to carry the anklo
