Utility Tips

What is a ankylosaurus used for? ankylosaurus battling strategies in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
Killer Spyglass Glitch for Ark: Mobile (idk if it works for ASE/A)
1. Grab slow-attacking (optional) MOUNTABLE (if u need a saddle it doesn't affect anything) i.e Ankylosaurus, Brontosaurus
2. Get Spyglass, pretty easy to do
3. Whip out said spyglass
4. Mount on decided creature
5. Hit M1/RB/Tap to attack, and as soon as you can press "aim." Do, it will bug the attack I-frames to attack every tick instead of once. You can do >900 dps to 5k< dps with an anky
(Note, it's just a melee enhancer, not some invisible ranged magic doohickey)
~CPG, Have Fun!
The Ankylosaurus harvests a lot of metal when hitting a metal rock. Up to 130 on official servers. They can also smash normal rocks (which are everywhere) to get a lot of flint and about half as much stone. This is perfect for making sparkpowder.
It can also be carried by Argentavis (which has a lot of weight), so you can easily transport your Anky to mountains for metal.
I found an infinite damage glitch. What you need to do is take the ankylo (works on other herbivores and some carnivores) ride it and attack something before it hits the target use the spyglass now you found an infinite damage glitch . It works on the spino and rex but the stacks are lower . Works on stego and bronto too but make sure you have a saddle
If you need metal and also have an argentavis, then this tip is for you!! *works best with a friend.*
• Carry the anklo using the argentavis to a mountain. Have someone ride the ankle, and someone else ride the argentavis.
• fly close to a metal rock, and swing the anklo's tail!
• Do this till your argentavis has a full amount, but just enough to fly.
• Fly back to your base and enjoy!
Once tamed they can traverse steep mountains pretty easily unlike other creature like pulmonoscorpius, which is good when you don't have argies in early game when farming metal also you can use it for luring purposes since you can use weapons and tools when riding an anky. Just go to a steep mountain and lure wild creature then watch them slide while you shoot them in the face.
When I tamed one it was on one edge of the map and my base was at the other edge. Fastest way to transport these is with the request command from the tames thing the only bad thing is that you will lose it’s inventory so just take everything I wanted to mine obsidian I requested it and took my obi and requested it at my base back
