You can now pick it up with an argy!
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.
They are good for berries and metal
When taming this dino make sure he's close to ur base or you'll have to walk him home and trust me that takes very long unless u have a quetsel or agentavis...
Both the anky and doed will attack faster in the water. Flint and stone along the river is an easy way to go about it.
Most efficient way of taming one.
Find a good level ≥ Trap it (just to be safe) ≥ Knock it out ≥ Place spikes for protection ≥ Fully Starve it ≥ do other things while waiting for it to starve ≥ Chuck narco berries if torpor gets low to slowly increase torpor giving…

Find a good level ≥ Trap it (just to be safe) ≥ Knock it out ≥ Place spikes for protection ≥ Fully Starve it ≥ do other things while waiting for it to starve ≥ Chuck narco berries if torpor gets low to slowly increase torpor giving more time for it to starve ≥ once fully starved feed it ≥ watch it insta tame.
It looks like it has a very thick and spiky armour on its back, so some people might try to shoot it in the face, legs, or the underbelly. But here’s the truth, YOU DON’T HAVE TO! They have no torpor/damage reduction if a projectile hits their armour so shoot all you want…

They have no torpor/damage reduction if a projectile hits their armour so shoot all you want on him. When they are running away, just shoot their back. Hope this helped and wish y’all a great day.

These guys are useful no matter what point in the game your in, also they are great at hitting those annoying flying creatures you can never hit like onyx
Just run backwards and shoot. When it gets close, run away and keep shooting
I find the ankylosaurs is surprisingly a very good swimmer , or well good at floating and swimming it for submerging and going down ,but still better at submerging and going down than most dinos so I guess it could be used for oil but still , down try escape from one in water .
The work horse of the game helped me bring in the industial age 😊
Note this down there is a herbivore island on the island map and mobile they spawn like crazy there you can find your high levelled anky if there’s no ankys kill all parasaurs and phiomias wait a while tada you have ankys
Dilophosaur kibble is for ankylo on mobile.the easiest kibble you can make!! Hope this helps.
This tame is easy, prepare at LEAST 15 tranquility arrows. They take a while to eat though
Great for metal. You don't actually need the saddle to go on a mining expedition. As far as I know it only works for the metal concentrated rocks with gold veins on them (can be found on mountains mostly), but you can whistle move them (with the green arrow) towards the…
Great for metal. You don't actually need the saddle to go on a mining expedition. As far as I know it only works for the metal concentrated rocks with gold veins on them (can be found on mountains mostly), but you can whistle move them (with the green arrow) towards the rock and they auto-harvest. Game can be finicky and not have the anky do it if it decides the metal is in a weird spot, but a great way to get lots of metal for early metal items before you can unlock the saddle.
Neutral wild, will only attack if provoked, mostly found in easier zones
On mobile it’s mostly in redwood peak in pc it’s common in herb island
Go to herbivore island there’s lots of Ankylos there
If you are taming an anky use a scorpion to ride and a cross bow as the scorpion allows u to shoot from on top and it is fast plus if u run out of arrows u can go in with the scorpion to finish the knock out.
Not sure how many people know this and before you needed someone to help with this but in ascended at least you can pick up your anky with an argy and if you stop the anky close enough to the metal rock it will hit it on it's own... you only need to land to dump the…
