After taming, the Aberrant Ankylosaurus earns its keep through resource gathering, making tedious farming runs much faster. Breeding produces fertilized eggs that hatch within a 16°C–20°C temperature window. Defeating one in the wild grants 6 base XP. It can be cloned at a Cloning Chamber for 0.93 Element plus 0.01 Element per level.
