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

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…

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…

If you want to tame a stego find a rock clump up and slingshot the stego until he is unconscious.

Up so the noobs can see

If your raiding someone and they have turrets you can use this guy to drain the turrets. Hit the arrow pointing to the sky if this helped

I remember spawning in the swamps and having a wild one of these kill 2 titanaboas, a raptor and a kapro for me. Respected them ever since

Do NOT listen to the people saying to use a slingshot and tame from atop of stones Stegos can and will use their tail to take you out!

1 u climb high rock

2 make sure there’s no other stegosaurus

3 fire tranq darts until unconscious

4 make sure no dinos charging at u

5 feed it berries

There are many good places to find and kill stegos and those places are beaches with lots of trees and jungles because due to its large body it can easily get stuck.

P.S. Works for taming too

Lol to whoever struggling to switch stances on mobile,you can't.On mobile the stego is still the old stego

So just find low level it took me like five tranq arrows and crossbow to K.O. then hundred rockaroot and a little bio toxin and now I have a stego! Plz up people must see

I have a stegosaurus called Strega and she’s a GOD, can kill five giant beavers in a few swings, has very high health, doses decent damage, and helped me and my only tribe mate, my dad to tame our first giant beaver.

Make sure there's no other stego nearby and start shooting it from a distance, they aren't really fast, so, no trap is required.

Using kibble is preferable, because it takes really long to tame otherwise.

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…
