Metal is a quarter of its weight in an Ankylo.

The Ankylosaurus is, in my opinion, one of the best dinos to tame as a low level. Not only is it the best dino to gether metal, it is also a great taming mount, because it can collect berries and can kill little things like Raptors easy. This will be one of your most used dinos when you get into the higher levels and taming an Anky as soon as you can make the saddle (lvl 40) is highly recommended.

Ankylos are not useless even in the wild. If you're being chased by a carnivore, run to them. They are very strong depending on its level. And they usually spawn on groups, which means they can kill anything easily.

Tip:-Increasing the meele damage will increase the metal harvest rate

Not sure if anyone's said this one yet but if you hit the attack to gather berries and immidiatley after hit the other attack button it will gather berries in a full circle around it. Quickly maxes you out on berries by far the best way to gather berries/cactus sap

On mobile, it wont gather automatically like the Deod does. You have to strap an anky saddle to gather metal with it unfortunately

Wait wait wait wait he can break stone but not stone walls

I've heard that you aren't supposed to level the melee past 800, because it will 1 shot the rich metal nodes giving you less metal, instead of two hits, which would give you more metal.

This guy is LITERALLY the most overpowered metal gatherer on at LEAST, The Island! He is just great! I used to use a system where I carried this guy up the mountain I used, using an argemtavis and it worked great. I could carry the guy to the tippy top and have him smashing away at the great metal spots on top there.

To the person who said to transfer metal to a argy with nothing but weight, dont. Anklos reduce the weight of metal so it would be easier to carry the anklo

In his inventory metal weighs a quarter of the real weight

You would mainly use these to harvest metal and stuff, however the wild ones are a great source of keratin if you need some in a pinch 😈

Baby Ankylosaurus stay unconscious from cryosickness for 25 minutes.

✅You can take it with an Argentavis

This can get tons of metal with this! it’s very slow though. You can find it in the snow biome if you are on the island

It makes no sense that an anky cant damage stone...

If you keep thinking "oooooh my ascendant metal pick is better than an ankylo" brother just hit a target dummy with both see what's better

An ankylo (leveled in melee) and a quetz or argy (leveled in weight) is the single best way to farm metal. Just pick the anky with your bird and drop it on metal rocks. Then get on the anky and hit the metal rocks. The ankylo’s weight does not matter since the bird carries all

These things are great for resource gathering, the higher melee the more resources you get so upgrade that.
