What are tips for ankylosaurus? Tips and strategies for ankylosaurus in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
I recommend starving the anky first if it’s a high lvl( you can do that for low lvls too) up so noobs can see
Guide on Ankylosaurs (only for the island):
So, you are among the many survivors that seek to tame the herbivorous dinosaur Ankylosaurus (I’m calling it anky). Because this would probably be a major turning point in your survival experience, you should probably prepare.
First off, the anky is found in the many mountainous terrain in the island. There, it coexists with many dangerous carnivores like the Trex, raptor, and allosaurus. The anky defends itself with its club tail, using it to deal a deadly blow. But, the anky can also be found in the peaceful HERBIVORE ISLAND, which is an islet at the Southeast Tip of the island. There, ankys are abundant and there are no carnivores.
To tame the anky, check the area around it and clear any unwanted animals. You don’t want a Rex to get a double dish! The anky is very slow. Just walk backwards and shoot it with TRANQUILIZING AMMO which can be unlocked at lvl 21 (tranq arrows).
The anky has many uses:
Carries tons of metal. Also harvests a lot with its tail.
Defends base.
Is a cool Dino!!!
Next tip on Rex
On mobile they also spawn next to the green pillar
Who ever said they are slow DAMN 500 speed wild ANKY CHARGING ME
They collect so much metal but move so slow. 100x better with a argy.
Speaking of Argentavis how do you tame one?
How to tame an anky:
First of all find and anky ofc
Then make sure theres no others in attacking distance(optional if u can kill them)
Now just walk backwards shooting tranq arrows at its head(their to slow to catch up)
Repeat until unconscious
Tame with berrys and narcotics if needed.
Thank you!
Go to herbivore island so that your tame is not disrupted
Be careful with there eggs cuz they are very sensitive to the heat. I suggest doing it in the arctic with torches. Took me so long to figure it out
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.
Best Dino's for metal, oil and crystal!!!! I love it! Try for the highest level possible you will love it
Jurassic Bio: Ankylosaurus

Description: Ankylosaurus was a heavyweight herbivore who typically minds its own business, unless threatened by a predator. Its hammer like tail (wild card drew its tail wrong) served as a weapon, while its boney armor seved as a shield.

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)
How to tame an Ankylosaurus:
1. Ankylos are slow, so you can knock it out while walking, or build a small structure using stone to tame it more safely.
2. When you find an ankylo, start shooting it with a tranquilizing ammo, like tranq arrows or certain darts.
3. Keep shooting until it's knocked out. After it's knocked out, feed it berries, veggies, or a preferred kibble.
Hope this helped! Bye!
