What are tips for stegosaurus? Tips and strategies for stegosaurus in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
Don't try to kill a mating STEGO!!!
A sarco was killing one of these guys and I ran in to help; I ended up accidentally hurting this monster and it killed my Parasaur.
Berry murderer.
When your breeding them pay close attention to the baby’s they eat a lot my two baby stegos I left them with a lot food when I went to hunt but when I came back they were dead they died of starvation and I was very sad because one was level 67 and the other one was 84 they both died sadly
Surely you can just walk backwards and slingshot it till it unconcious then give it some berry
Don't even need a trap to tame it

It’s pretty easy. I tamed a lvl 10 male stego with this method;
MATERIALS:
10 tranq arrows
A bow or crossbow
100 berries (25 azulberries and so on)
METHOD:
1. Climb onto a rock the stego can’t when it charges at you
2. Shoot at least 7 tranq arrows at its side or stomach (I didn’t do the head)
3. If it doesn’t get knocked out shoot the rest of your tranq arrows
4. Once knocked out, feed it the berries
5. If it’s nearly conscious, feed it narcotics (1 spoiled meet and 5 narcoberries to make), narcoberries or bio toxin
6. If you run out of berries (which you shouldn’t) quickly collect some
7. You now have a stego!
(More tranq arrows/more
berries the higher the level)
They just do their own thing unless you provoke it
The stego's speed decreases by 65% when tamed, but the game "compensates" you by buffing its movement speed to like 200% so that it is just... 30% slower than a wild stego if you have 0 weight. Not really practical traveling long distances with this thing, bro really fulfills its "tank" role
Once you manage to sit through the tame, these things can be absolutely amazing for gathering berries.
You'll need two people, a quetzal, and your shiny new stego.
Have one person on the quetz, one on the stego, and have the quetzal pick up the stego in its big chicken feet.
The quetz may now fly around, very close to the ground, and the stego can swing to get constant berries.
Don't spam the "swing" button, or you won't gather anything. Wait until the swing animation is over, and then tap it again.
When the quetzal is encumbered, they can drop the stego to regain stamina, the person on the stego can drop the undesired goodies, and you can go off again.
Can everybody posting tips stop assuming that every body reading these have strong fliers like quetzal and tapajaras because some people don’t. I’m a low level beach bob who’s only flier is one lvl 50 ptera that I am still making a saddle for.
I once saw a stego fend off an attack by a rex for, I kid you not, 30 minutes. So tanky...
Yo geezers, you can shoot arrows whilst riding it so if you upgrade it's health it can be a taming machine, ya get me?
BRO I KNOCKED OUT A 140 WITH COOL COLORS AND THEY TOOK 0.4 BERRIES PER BITE WTF-
