If your melee attack damage is high and the anky is a low level just hit it with a bat a couple of times then put mejoberrys in its inventory then have fun with your new anky
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.

How ARK players tame and knock out the Ankylosaurus: what to feed it, what to knock it out with, and how to keep it safe.
I just want to know if it is possible to use a Bola on them??
How to Tame an Ank Very Early Game
Find a low-ish level ank (for me lvl 20) and just hit them with a slingshot until knocked out. You can outrun them even while facing them. Tame with mejoberries. Slingshots will not kill your ank unless you hit them sporadically, so try…

It’s an easy tame just run around it in circles they have slow turning while shooting it with a normal bow they don’t need neuro usually
They are incredibly slow and you can easily outrun them even with default movement speed. In fact you can walk backwards and still outrun them, so backtrack and pelt them with your tranq of choice. If scorched earth use boomerangs, when they fall use kibble or Mejo berries.…

Very easy tame for any level
They are good limestone/clay/metal collectors move faster in water.
I would reccomend getting dilos asap for eggs and a pack of 4-5 med-high levelswill be great for base defense early on in the game. Once you get enough dilo kibble for a decent level ankyo then go for it. The ankylo is a must have if you plan on advancing to metal gear.
If you want to tame one, get a crossbow with narc arrows then utilize its wide turn and kite it. Very easy KO if done this way. They travel in herds so try to find one away from the group. Happy taming!
They have buff of metals u just need this guy with weight and dmg and 1 quetz ez for metal farm
Kill an ankylo is a crime against humanity.is the coolest dino biggest farmer
I think u can knock him down with a lightning wyvern that can help alot.
It is not fun being in the middle a threesome with this Dino and 2 stevia after u steal there egg.
Best is to pump melle and weight in to a quetzal so you can get metale and bring it to base to smelt in the forge
Use it for collecting metal from small stones it collects about 3-9 per 1 stone
This dinosaur has the biggest rate of gathering metal
Convert half your metal to ammo before you leave the mountains.
On taming its saying no need of narcotic while feed its not true i was taming 150 and i had to feed narcotic to keep it unconcious
Wild ones will do 1 damage per hit to stone...doesnt seem like much but if you can manage to quetzal in as many as you can find before starting a raid and get them to start atacking those numbers start stacking up...on top of almost being equal to a rex for base damage per hit…

Stand on a rock or high surface so you don't get hit
Cruise the Beaver dams and the center and you should find some. Grab with quetzal and drop it in a pen for an easy tame.
