Utility Tips

What is a iguanodon used for? iguanodon battling strategies in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
The iguanodon is one of the most important tames early/mid game. Forget metal runs, forget the seeds, try a taming mount with infinite stamina and insane speed that can hold its own against the biggest predators.
Get a high level one, upgrade alot of health and move speed (it’s pretty squishy), and some melee damage. Now get an xbow for every 100 tranq arrows, and narcotics. It should already have enough weight to carry the equipment you need, it has infinite stamina, and it has a decent pike-like attack with a little bit of knockback (move backwards and spam left click).
When fighting/taming on it, circle around the enemy (try to stick on their tail and be annoying), be careful not to get swarmed, try to take things head on, and don’t be afraid to run away on all 4s to avoid taking on too much at once. This thing should be able to hold its own if you can’t be bothered to bring escorts.
To be fair, procoptodon sorta does all this but better in some ways, but iguanodon has its place and is usually located in safe enough areas (watch for raptors).
They have a LOT of food capacity you barely have to feed them at great utility Dino CRAZY FAST, unlimited stamina, the previously mentioned food rate and their pretty decent attack on smaller dinos from about Compy to Raptor at base stats, make this guy (or girl) useful for everything! Did I mention they are great for agriculture they strip seeds out of berries great for planting! 4.5/5 tame also it looks great!!!
If you want to be a farmer definitely tame this creature it's just like a parilimmus (mix of parasaur and galliminus) and has infinite stamina replace your gallii and parasaur with this guy best kibble maker cause you need crops to make kibble and this guy is great for getting crops and turns them to seeds I have a narcotics store in my server and I have this guy and a rex for spoiling meat and some freinds and we have over 15000 narcotics and we exchange technology like TEK,gasoline,and guns we exchange 1000 narcotics for 5 items if you are in multiplayer and have this guy open your first narco store
These Guys are super helpful, Recommend getting one. They are mainly good for travel and melee. For example, my Iguanodon (Orange Popsicle) killed a Rex no problem and was barely damaged. Anyways, They're seeding fruit ability is helpful especially if you have a desert base or something. Their taming is especially easy, Bola and bat. That's pretty much all you need. I definitely like to call these guys my favorite dino.
