What is a iguanodon used for? iguanodon battling strategies in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
These are an amazing mount. I was able to easily kill parasaurs and such on my iguanadon. When quadrupedal (walking on 4 legs) they are sooooooo damn fast. On Xbox press LT to switch from quadrupedal to bipedal and vice versa. When bipedal they run slower (about the same speed as a parasaur) and attack when you press RT. They are good for collecting thatch and berries as well.
This dino has infinite stamina when on 4 legs which can help to get around but when it use it's hind legs it gets fast and vicious for either an escape or to fight, they are also able to gather berries and seeds which can be useful for food, farming, and taming. Although I wouldn't recommend fighting a pack of raptors though they can still be useful for fighting other creatures.
Great at collecting thatch and a little bit of wood for early game. Fast, with unlimited speed on all fours. Ok melee but if facing something big better to run because they are faster than most dangerous things. Can seed fruits for taming or farming! A must have at all lvls!!
I really suggest taming 1,2,3 or as many as you can in early game because they can’t be jumped by a raptor, can gather thatch,wood, and berries, annnnd! They can also travel long distances nonstop once you unlock the saddles + they can de-seed the fruits and vegetables too. They are also pretty decent when it comes to killing low level threats like raptors and dilos.
