If you can find one early game I highly recommend getting it, even if you don’t have the saddle it is good for defending you from various creatures, I had one level 45 take out a carno in under a minute. Later in game btheh work great for getting metal and other needed supplies.

Longneck n dart is a good option ele prod if u have......

I can't stress this enough but if you have a high lv 100+ and need meat you can take on brontos but only if you spam the bite attack because it has higher dps than tail swipe

Watch out when trying to tame this spiky armoured dinosaur because it can knock you very far away!

All you need in Ark is a Beelzebufo, a Beaver, A Doedicerous, and an Anky. At least if you're me and you play on a private server. Beaver gets you wood, Frog gets you cementing paste and decent raw meat and hide, Doedic gets you stone, and Anky gets you metal.

Just up the oxygen to 4 k and then go down to the seafloor and get tons of oil. Or just make Lazarus stew and feed it to your anky this method is worse than the method of having an High oxygen stat because increasing oxygen Will turn your anky into a missile underwater that can easily go down grab oil and be up again before the creatures of the depths even notice it best way to get oil if you dont have the resources needed for taming à dunkle

Better thatch gatherer than the moose that’s apparently ‘1#’ best for thatch

Breeding information may be incorrect my Anky took 2 days and 2 hours to mature not 2 days 4 hours just a warning to those logging on to do the last imprint near the end

One thing besides being amazing at metal and flint collection, is to be sure and get the oil nodes too. High collection rate for a land animal.

The ankylosaurs is a massive epic pickaxe of mass destruction that if used correctly can get you so much flint and metal that you won't know what to do with it , dilo's are easy to tame and so an easy kibble for a epic beast .

Problems with metal? Not anymore! Have a tribemate carry you on your Quetzalcoatlus and get all the metal you need! Just make sure you are well prepared for an ambush.

Yes a bow or a sniper or a slingshot or a bole. Shotgun.

Excellent for gathering Metal and Flint.

If short on rare flowers go to a bunch of bushes and spam alt fire for a decent amount of stacks.

Hating him is what you should be doing if you’re building something his the bast to halp

I fed it mejos to tame and it wouldn’t stop eating and tamed almost 30 secs after knockout

At around level 50 it is a war machine against dinos, just make sure it has atleast 3.5k health and it can kill an alpha raptor, even if you die 10 times in the process. This was not fun but was amazed when it won the battle

The Anky can smash a boulder with one or two whacks with its bony tail.

The doedicurus does a better job at harvesting obsidian, but I play the mobile so I don’t know about the console or the pc. But I have harvested between twenty and thirty obsidian from one Rock, where as the ankylo only gave me ten to twenty.

pair it with an argentavis to mine metal, crystal and obsidian.

Let the eagle carry stone crystal and ankylosaurus the metal. They are perfect buddies for each other.
