Player-written tips for taming, using, and fighting the Stegosaurus in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.

Excellent for farming barries on genesis map, parasaurs are a bit harder to find especially considering exploring the bog wthout friends or dinos is dangerous.

My gf and I have our own unofficial and are Duo running Lost Island PVE. We decided due to being so early game and the amount of carnivores being so high and resources being so low that a stego may be the way to go for a decently "tamed" encounter as for KOing and we…

Tip

Find a tall stone of cliff. That way it can’t hit you.

Then after you tranq it let it starve, I also used bio toxin.

And then give it rockarrot.

When I was a total noob, I went into a dungeon for the first time. Went down a hallway. ‘Threat incoming’ it said. Suddenly three neon rainbow stegos spawned. It killed me in one hit.

It has 3 modes. Heavy, good for fighting multiple enemies

Sharp, which is good in pvp

And hardened, which makes you take half damage

If you're not going to trap it, be prepared for a game of cat and mouse. Also make sure there is plenty of farming around. Snails move faster than a stego tames... =_=

The new TLC update made these guys OP! Now they harvest tons of thatch, wood, and berries with their new plate forms! These guys are like tanks now! I tamed a lv 411 today, and it literally shreds though other dinos! By far I would tame a stego instead of a bronto, or a trike!

You can not get picked off these while the sharpened plates are active (the first ones) but you can be netted so before you soak online you can net your own stego then cut it to make it invincible to nets for the next minute

Probably the best early game berry gatherer not because of how much it yields per plant, but because it’s attack covers a larger area. This means you can gather multiple plants at once instead of one at a time. If you are in an area with lots of bushes clumped together, you…

One of the best tanks in the entire game, I used Tek stegosaurus to beat every boss on the game, excluding the desert Titan and Moeder.

Amazing soakers, you can run up to turret towers with a rocket launcher and shoot them off the back of these.

Stegosaurs are amazing creatures. you should tame them get a lot of arrows and get on top of a high rock and shoot at it don’t kill though

These guys are heavenly defenders I was with him and two dilos he was only level 27 and killed a spino also while riding surviver does not take any damage because of the spikes I give these guys a 10,out of 10 they are also good harvesters for thatch

Here’s an easy trap for stegos place one stone foundation and four door frames and a wooden ramp

If the stegosaurus got damaged a lot wait for it to heal

You maybe need 20-50 narcotics and like 50 tranq arrows
