Used mine with about 440 melee dmg to take down a theri across from my base and i was like this is suicide and really stupid but i have my stupid reputation to keep up so i just went to it on my raft but first tried to kill it with my ballista missed twice so juat decided to go for it. Moral of the story is to just go for it when you have 440 melee and 650 health the thing barely touched me and scarlet but anyways i shot of the back of it with a longneck and fu*&ed up a carno.
Ark Survival Ultimate Mobile Edition:
Stego got three stance
1. Red/Buffed/Shield Icon: Half dmg taken from everything, good for gathering wood
2.Blue/Heavy/Mace Icon: Attack cause slow effect, good for thatch gathering
3.White/Sharpen/Sword Icon: Deal armor piercing attack, stance for berry gathering
(6/Feb/2025)
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).
Single player uses:
1. Gatherer: Stegosaurus is among the best wood and thatch gatherers, and is also a good berry gatherer.
2. Early game power dino: Stegos are slower than a sloth on melatonin, but they are tanky for their size.
3. Redwood mount: You can't get dismounted while riding it, need I say more?
