Encountering Tips

How do I kill a ankylosaurus? ankylosaurus battling strategies in ARK: Survival Evolved.
The Ankylosaurus will not attack you in the wild unless you attack first. When battling you can run away quite easily, just be aware, they have high health, so if you plan to kill one make sure you have enough stamina and resources to kill them.
If being chased run to them cuz they can kill carnos in the wild😮😮
you can find them easily at easy area number 3 then get enough levels for raft and go to the small island because that’s where I find a bunch, good luck. please up👆so more people can see this, thank you😁.
If you are playing on the Island, don't waste your time looking for one on the mountains or in the redwood forest.
Just go to Herbivore Island, the safest spot to find both ankylosaurs and metal (the resource they are so good at gathering)!!!
Around mountains and in the southern areas, in general pretty common
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.
They collect so much metal but move so slow. 100x better with a argy.
Speaking of Argentavis how do you tame one?
They spawn on mountains and in the snow biome.
They're so slow that you don't really have to worry about them. Just shoot at their head while walking backwards and you'll be fine.
On mobile they also spawn next to the green pillar
Go to herbivore island there’s lots of Ankylos there
I just encountered an anky I thought to tame it because at that time I oonly had Dodos and dilophosaurus.so I decided to try to tame it but no suddenly an carno came and killed. Now I'm thinking to tame the carno.(This the first time writing)
On mobile it’s mostly in redwood peak in pc it’s common in herb island
I've seen 3 high level ones wack and yeeeted a 450 rex into the sea near tundra.It's a shame cause I was saving argy eggs for that guy.So in fruststation,I tamed all three of those ankys.
You find them in dangerous areas, where there are Rexs, carnos, or/and spinos. I found mine by the triple water fall on the west side of the map by the snow biome
They are found in herbivore island a lot so if you go there and mine the rich metal rocks with him you are sure to get STACKS
Won't attack you unless you attack them first Ankylosaurus is basically a slow tanky dino when facing an ankylo ranged weapons are your best chance their high health pool means their hard to beat but even a basic bow and arrow can kill them if you can't fight then run they deal considerably high damage and can destroy your basic wooden shield in 5-9 hits of it's tail melee combat isn't advised but if you can manoeuver constantly and attack it's blind spot you got a chance
Herbivore Island is a place where you can find LOTS of herbivores, especially these guys, so I suggest riding a water mount to get there.
(P.S: Herbivore Island is a good place to set your base, since there are no enemies there.)
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
Im level 50 but idk where herbivore island can someone pls point it out where to fins it bc I need these guys
