You DO NOT GET MORE METAL from ore. You gather it faster ankys are great to gather the same amount of metal from ore faster! Higher melee is nice but not necessary over 200%. I'd go 200% melee then the rest hp.

So this thing can break basically all rocks within a single hit but not stone walls

Hey if ur looking for ketrian theese are ur go to guys.

KILL THEM ALL

DONT USE ANKY FOR OBSIDION, for mobile Anky is the highest ranking creature for obsidian but the Dododex is wrong, the doedic is MUCH better at obsidion collection

It can be carried by an argy so you can pick it up and bring it to a taming pen

You can harvest rock and metal with the anky!-DJ Fox7222

It can be carried by an argi like so they update

Argys and Quetzal can take ankylos.So If you spot high lvl one just take it and take wherever you want.Btw taking 165 one right now

You can now use an Argentavis to lift an Ankylo.

300 DMG is what you want. Weight and speed next. My 300 does the same as my 400 damage anky

If using this tame isnt your style you can easily substitute it with trapping and taming any wild expectaions, or any level of substancal progression works too. when mounted They have the best production reistance in the game!

Won't automatically harvest. Make sure you are level 36 to buy saddle first.

Can now be carried by Argentavis since TLC 2.0 got it's raptor pounce patch.

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......

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

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 .
