Taming & KO Tips

How do I tame a ankylosaurus? Tips and strategies on taming and knocking out a ankylosaurus.
Just tranq and walk backwards shouldn’t need to trap as long as you you have one or two points in movement
These guys are slow like REALLY slow even walking outruns them just make sure to bring some narcotics and some tranqs and your set.
Get yourself an Argy fly to Harvi Island get urself an Anky, skill him Weight and Melee dmg.
It will spawn usually in red wood
You can usually find a male and female one on herbivore island. Just fly over there, or use a boat. If you use a boat, beware of the giant fish. They really like those
Go to kapro story section every one
It's fairly easy to tame on the scorched earth map, as you just need to keep backing up while throwing a boomerang. However, watch out for the rocks. I suggest heading over to the mid-zones due to the fact that there is less threats mid-zone one.
Here how i tamed my anky: i first found a good level one (135 for me) then used my Argentavis to pick it up and get it into a box (or safe place ) Only took about 8 toxic arrows to knock it out i did use a soothing bloom to make it faster but its worth it to get a anky
For mobile players lvl 300 anky ez with adscendent bow n 4 dilo kibble with 10x balm
Wild Andy’s are slow so get like 100 ft away and put the tranq arrows to em!
Taming method is the same as a sarco except it eats berries and doesn't swim away when it's high in torpor.
When taming on foot remember they have a bad turn radius
Level 20 games on 1x with superior kibble.
Time:
Kibble used: 4
You don’t actually need a crossbow with tranqs for this— just a normal bow. Try to shoot it in the head in rapid succession whilst walking backwards. (Their slow so this is easy) Once you have it out cold, you’ll need lots of berries and narcotic/bio toxin. Then you got an Anky!
To knock it out, walk backwards with a sling shot, and gen newbies can do this! Make sure to have about 30 rocks.
Using tranq arrows with a crossbow is fairly effective running then turning back shooting then running again is fairly easy or making a trap and attacking then lure it to trap
It's best to do a stave tame if you taming one in a dangerous place. So all your resources are not lost.
All I did was run away from the beast, while constantly hitting it in the head with a club while it was unconscious I gave it over a hundred berries to eat on a some narcos and boom I had a ankylosaurus and I named him tank because paleontologists say the are built like tanks
Pardon my spelling I’m just a kid who is twelve years old and sucks at typing.
Honestly Ankies are super easy to tame, they just take a while. You will be using them forever and if you pump Melee damage you get more metal which is a must
Fun fact: They also spawn at the Southern Islets. Go to the intersection that's separating the swamp and you maybe see 2 or more of them in the intersecting island. Although its rare. Its always good to look at there when you started looking for one.
