Encountering Tips

How do I kill a steinbjörn? steinbjörn battling strategies in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
Corner ledge, velonasaur, 25 minutes of ur life. Steinborn = dead
The hardest one of the worldbosses (imo) had crazy damage resistance when I fought it and had 300k health
Alright so Heres a good tip.
Noooo u dont need mutated gigas or rexes, u just need a velonasaur(from the fire wyvern island), crank up to abt 600%+ dmg and use a grapple to get on one of the ledges and then just shoot him from the cliff, he cant get to u, therefor keep some health stuff like blood or brew, a few stones will hit u for small damage.
Blood stalkers have a amor piercing attack so use some front blood stalkers
Gigas are the way to go, rock elementals do the second most damage against it.
Your best bet is something that deal explosive damage like magmasaurs or shadowmanes not only are the not affected by the bears armor but they deal extra damage. Phoenix does as well but unless you have an army of god tier phoenix I do not recommend it.
The magmasaur is hit strong
A good way to defeat this bear is to use velonosaurs as they do enough damage to bring it down, you can also use gigas and rock elementals. If your on your own without dinos you can use a rocket launcher with homing missiles while being grappled to a wall with a crossbow and grapples as this works quite well too..
Fly to ledge at the back of the cave in then un cryopod a descent velonosaur. Bring milk.
My tip on killing this boss is by getting 3 high level reapers and a yuty it is a powerful combo because of the damage and resistance
Use Velos on the cliff with vines, use climbing picks or grappling hooks and if you position your velo correctly it can’t hit you. Try to bring a friend and you both have 140+ wild tamed velos with like 4k+ Stam and good melee
To kill use the amargasaurus armor break spine to remove the damage reduction and then kill it with gigas
Carcha are good for this one.
Gigas nuke this chunky bear
I have to put this here to submit
Hardest out of the 3 mini bosses and the demires is tiny
Do it with giga the cave is empty u can go till the spawn area and outcryo gigas
The actual boss doesn’t look like this it’s way more impressive with lots more rock, ice spikes, and snow on it. This Dododex pic is what the taxidermy looks like, because for some reason the taxidermy looks nothing like the boss… it’s because Dododex uses taxidermy poses for the pictures if you look at them you can see what I mean. (Also explains why rubble bears have no pic yet because they kinda just explode when killed..)
Get on wall somehow then use the rocket launcher and destroy him and his rubble bears
This thing is soooooooo hard to kill
About 8 lvl 140-150 wild tamed gigas should do the trick
