A wild Ankylosaurus starts at 700 health and 100% melee damage. Its drag weight is 160, which decides what can carry it. Killing one gives 6 base XP.

Taming food: Regular Kibble, Fresh Sorghum, Archelon Algae, Crops, Mejoberry, Berries, Fresh Barley, Fresh Wheat, or Soybean, Dried Wheat. Torpor drains at 0.3 per second once it is unconscious.

Breeding: lays an egg, incubating in 2h 37m, and the baby matures in 2d 43m with 6 imprints available. The egg needs 16–20°C to incubate . Mating cooldown runs 18h to 2d.

Immobilised by: Chain Bola, Large Bear Trap.

Best at gathering: Metal, Obsidian, Ambergris, Element Shard, Silicate.

Drops on death: Raw Meat, Keratin, Hide.

Chain BolaFired from a Ballista or Harpoon Launcher. Grounds flyers and pins them where they land.
Large Bear TrapSame idea as the Bear Trap, sized for the big stuff. Bait it into walking over one.

That's the full list — nothing else immobilizes a Ankylosaurus, per the game's own immobilizer table (drag weight 160).

Every number in this card is at official 1× rates, with the fastest food. Taming speed and food consumption multipliers change all of it, and most servers are not on official — the calculator at the top of this tab takes your rates, a Sanguine Elixir, and every other food this creature will eat.

Effectiveness is what decides the bonus levels: every unit of food eaten costs a slice of it, so the food that needs the fewest units finishes at the highest level. That is why kibble is worth the trouble — not that it is much faster, but that it is fewer feedings.

Torpor drains at 0.3 per second while it is unconscious, so on a long tame you will need Narcotic to keep it down. The calculator works out how much.
