What is a stegosaurus used for? stegosaurus battling strategies in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
The stego is relly easy to tame just gotta avoid the tail I found mine stuck so it was easy but I suggest using tranq arrows to tame and some mejoberrys it’s relly useful for harvesting from plants I got like 500 of each type of plant from whacking plants with its tail. That’s all I got for the Steg hope it’s useful for y’all!

Description: The Stegosaurus is *one of* the most famous species of dinosaurs. It gets its name from its house shaped plates. Its 4 spikes on its tail (Wild Card gave it 6?🙄), would serve as a lethal weapon against predators.

A super overpowered soaker. With a good saddle and imprint, and mate boost, and yuty buff, this thing is a tank. Can easily soak anything, with its hardened plate, and you can’t be shot off the back of it, meaning you can push up to a death wall with one and put c4 on the wall whilst your stego is soaking and blocking any damage to you. Very amazing soakers, definitely recommend getting them for PvP
Stegos, while they may be a little more wimpy than they seem during an encounter, they can hold their own against predators(there’s a reason they can deal damage to the T-Rex in a scrimmage), and they cover a very broad area around the back and side, where most dinos fail to protect themselves, making them a good adventuring help despite their speed and stamina drain.
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 can gather berries faster than other early game dinos.
