Tips & Strategies
If you have a stego already, a good strategy would be to ride your previously tamed stego with heavy plate equipped. You hit the stego with heavy plate to start, slowing it while aggroing so it stays in range, then switch to hardened plate (the slowing debuff should give you plenty of time to do so) then, equip a crossbow with tranq arrows (personal preference, but ultimately itβs up to you) the aggro on the stego will keep it close enough to be able to steadily headshot the stego, while you being in your stego will prevent it from retaliating and lowering its health. You will probably have to periodically hit the stego with heavy plate equipped to keep the slowing debuff active, but other than that you should be fine

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

From experience: You can tame it without a trap if you're fast enough, just make sure it's alone first. I used tranq arrows in a crossbow and just ran from it, turning around every few seconds to shoot. Not too hard to hit the head, to be honest. Of course I can't guarantee this will work for everyone, but it worked for me :)
If you dont tame it with kibble you can catch up on some netflix shows of yours :).
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!
1 u climb high rock
2 make sure thereβs 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
Just grab some tranq arrows, a crossbow, stand on a rock and shoot. Then feed it berries and give it a saddle.
This is a tip on how to tame a stego. First find a one they commonly spawn in jungles, mountains and plains. They will occasionally spawn on beaches. Second, you must preferably knock out with slingshot or tranq bow. I would recommend using a slingshot if you make a trap or on a high rock. Third proceed to knock it out. - quick tip: if you pump enough levels in health and melee damage on a pulmoscorpius (scorpion thing) you can knock it out with that. They prefer vegetables or berries (mejoberries).
Knock stego out and feeed
