Walk backwards and slingshot to tame. No trap required

Up so that the pros can see

With the new TLC the stego can easily become a must-tame early game dino for many players. It has 3 stances when ridden you can change between pressing C (crouch):

Heavy plate, boosting thatch gather rates and applying a heavy slow on hit targets.

Sharp plate, boosting berry gathering and attacks penetrate armour (useful for PvP).

Hardened plate, boosting wood gather and halves damage taken.

For combat, heavy plate is great for effectively rooting enemy and wild dinos in place, whilst hardened plate is to tank everything that comes at you. Sharpened plate shines together with allies that can slow and/or tank whilst you focus on dealing good dmg.

The alternate attack of the stego can impale creatures up to the size of roughly a parasaur, dealing damage based on attack damage. In order to do so the target must have a certain amount of health left, which is highlighted with the crosshair turning red when looking at the target (unsure how it is shown without crosshairs).

If you want to tame a stego find a rock clump up and slingshot the stego until he is unconscious.

Up so the noobs can see

78.3/79.0 = stegosaurus dossier on The Island Maps!

If your raiding someone and they have turrets you can use this guy to drain the turrets. Hit the arrow pointing to the sky if this helped

These big guys are not to be underestimated. They have a slow speed, but don't let this fool you. Once tamed, they can gather insane amounts of wood, berries, and thatch. I suggest taming these as soon as possible. Use upgrade points on health, melee dmg, movement speed, and stamina. Hope this helped.

Do NOT listen to the people saying to use a slingshot and tame from atop of stones Stegos can and will use their tail to take you out!

Hardened will reduce incoming damage and prevent the player from getting dismounted. It does not gather berries, but it gathers impressive amounts of wood.

Heavy inflicts slow on targets and prevents the rider from getting dismounted. It gathers moderate berries and wood, along with large amounts of thatch.

Sharpened does armor penetration and prevents the rider from getting dismounted. It gathers large amounts of berries, decent thatch, and little wood.

Most underrated Dino, need wood use a stego, need thatch use a stego, need berries use a stego. Need a tank with added bonus of no rider damage…use a stego.

If you dont tame it with kibble you can catch up on some netflix shows of yours :).

I remember spawning in the swamps and having a wild one of these kill 2 titanaboas, a raptor and a kapro for me. Respected them ever since

1 u climb high rock

2 make sure there’s no other stegosaurus

3 fire tranq darts until unconscious

4 make sure no dinos charging at u

5 feed it berries

So just find low level it took me like five tranq arrows and crossbow to K.O. then hundred rockaroot and a little bio toxin and now I have a stego! Plz up people must see

A stego is a very powerful ally on a trek. It has a very broad tail swing, which can knock back an entire side of attackers, and is a machine when it comes to gathering tons of berries for food and lots of thatch for temporary fires and bases.

At times 5 taming speed it only took me 5 potatoes to tame a stego. Up. so more people will see this

Lol to whoever struggling to switch stances on mobile,you can't.On mobile the stego is still the old stego

How top soak Like a Boss with this:

- Max Level (tek Variant Base Level 180 + leveling)

- imprint

- Male shadowmane buff

- yuty roar

- daeodon heal

-snow owl heal + freeze

- Max Armor saddle

- Mate Boots

- Rider wearing Gas Mask against poison

- anti net gun Glitch

- sweet vegetable cakes

Nothing will be better to soak ;)

There are many good places to find and kill stegos and those places are beaches with lots of trees and jungles because due to its large body it can easily get stuck.

P.S. Works for taming too

I know this might sound fake but I tamed one when I was level 18 I used a sling shot I was so close to dying

I have a stegosaurus called Strega and she’s a GOD, can kill five giant beavers in a few swings, has very high health, doses decent damage, and helped me and my only tribe mate, my dad to tame our first giant beaver.
