Necessary tame

#1 Metal miner unless ur on genisis cuz magmasaurs

It can be carried by argy, reducing weight for metal cuz argy has -50% while this guy has a wopping -85% weight reduction, plus its faster than riding normally

Gathers immerusable amounts of flint

So a lvl 30 anky can fight and alpha raptor! Mine has killed 3 due to it hitting hard and knocking them back, the raptors can't hit them! Ankylosaurs aren't just for metal, but they are also for alpha raptor killing machines! These things are my favorite herbivore because of this.

You can use these guys to clear out forested areas for a base or something

So pick this up with argentavis, and make an argentavis follow you, max out boths weight and there u go u have infinite metal, just go volcano and mine it all out, maybe crystal and obsidian too, make sure all the metal or most of it is in anky because of weight reduction, obsidian stone and crystals in argentavis.

Very good for metal 10/10 would recommend.

I've tamed an anky recently and I found out how efficient it is. Just make sure to lvl up on weight as it stops auto harvesting after its half way through its weight.

This is one of the best tames early game, absurd amount of metal and obsidian can be farmed very quickly, also number 1 in 6 categories including flint and metal, also highly rated for crystal

Everyone knows that these are great for metal but they can also harvest berries very well with the alternate attack button. They are also the best around for harvesting flint, so are great when you’re looking to make a lot of gunpowder.

Tip: More damage = more metal.

When breeding Ankylosaurus, imprinting is a great investment.

I'm not sure If this is obvious to everyone else but I realised its 100% worth it, not only can they carry soooo much more metal than you, they also don't have durability like your weak little hatchet so you don't have to bring an extra three on your volcano trip.

Give your anky tons of berries and/or veggie cakes, they totally deserve it!

Melee 480 imprinted, 520 not.

The rest in weight or speed.

My favourite gathering tame. Quite slow.

My Anky Buddy is a tank and great at metal strongly recommend

Get an argy to carry one to and from a mountain for lots of metal because anky good for that and argy gets weight reduction

Metal, Crystal and Flint. Can be carried by Argentavis. Metal got 1/4 weight in it.

So just have a quetzal and ankylo, then make ankylo get metal and when encumbered, move him to next metal ore with quetzal and break again, because with breaking, u can get as much metal as you want in ankylos inventory unlike just putting it in, putting in has limit, so u can have like 5k metal with an quetzal and ankylo.

Best mounting climbers out there “Tested”

Ankylos will get more metal per hit if you have a 100% imprint on it

Use these for getting berries,really they can harvest like 100 at a time. Just tamed one with rock carrots and you’ll have a harvesting machine
