I have killed one with my bare hands I have loads of fortitude when it goes to swing move back keep punching

Best early game wood gatherer, can be easily trapped with billboards.

Stego is a great way to get narcoberrys for tranq arrows or narcotics. It’s a great tame for beginners to help get an easy food source. :)

Theyre great starter tames on aberration. They help you farm berries and can deal with ravagers, they’re fairly tanky with a few levels into health and the saddle is accessible early game.

Use some tranq arrows or darts then just move back slowly, when it gets close just un equip and run far then shoot repeat until knocked out, they are also passive so if you think about getting one grind some narco berries for arrows (that’s also pretty easy)they eat berries to.

Sharpened plate mode is fantastic at getting biotoxin from red mushrooms, don't even need to be close enough to endanger yourself. Also gets great weight reduction on berries and all the Abberation mushrooms except aggeravic.

I knocked him out with a Scorpion just stab him and if he gets to bloody let him be once he heals up repeat

I used one of these guys to gather trees and berries, never have to run around and gather fiber or wood anymore 😅

Lvl up their weight there very slow

Bring Perry or raptor and tranqs I hope I am being helpful

Like if helping me just start and me good first time

In short terms. Stegos have three modes, heavy plate, sharp plate, and hard plate.

Heavy plate gathers more thatch

Sharp plates gather berries and attacks with more power

Hard plate gathers more wood.

Also note that only pc and console can do this so Srry mobile.

Real me tame these with a bat and no trap!

Great for gathering wood and thatch in low resource areas. Way better than the trike although it isn't nearly as strong.

One fantastic trait of the stego is that you cannot be dismounted while riding one. This makes it a safe (albeit very slow) mount for exploring swamps and the Redwoods as thylas and kapros become far more manageable.

When encountering a stego, think twice before taking one down as ALL stegos(including corrupted)are set to Hardened Plate. Hope this somewhat helps you all

The stegosaurus is great for wood gathering if you need a bunch and don’t have a lot of time because of their massive weight capacity. Even though it’s a pretty slow tame it is great for gathering resources in abundance.

Don’t just walk back unless you are that fast go on top of a rock to make it easier and use sling shot

Remember to have plenty of berries

Really good tanks if you level up health

There are multiple stegos on herbivore island in the bottom right of the map (But probably in the top right because I always mix up the location of herbivore island and dead island)

Huge damage soakers, I’ve used them for almost every boss fight In the game, be sure to tame the tek variant to get those better stats
