Andrewsarchus
In Ark Survival Evolved, taming an Andrewsarchus requires a blend of stealth and skill. First, slip into a Ghillie suit and have some Giant Bee Honey handy on your quick access bar. Drop the honey to distract the creature and, while it’s feasting, stealthily approach and mount it. As you ride, pay close attention to the steering arrow prompts. Be prepared; the Andrewsarchus will eventually buck you off. The better you handle the steering, the fewer honey drops you’ll need to fully tame it.
