Check the taming results to see how long it takes to tame the VR Stegosaurus, what effectiveness you'll achieve, and how many bonus levels it gains. Better food means better results.

Use the knockout chart to see exactly how many Tranq Arrows, Darts, or other torpor weapons it takes to down the VR Stegosaurus. Space your shots to let torpor accumulate - rapid firing risks killing it before knockout.

Use the narcotic calculator to determine exactly how many Narcotics, Bio Toxin, or Narcoberries you need for the VR Stegosaurus. Your options are Narcotics (40 Torpor), Bio Toxin (80 Torpor, best efficiency), or Narcoberries (7.5 Torpor, cheapest but slowest). With Torpor draining at 0.3/s, don't wait until the bar is nearly empty to apply narcotics.

The real-time timers below help you monitor Torpor drain and Food depletion during the tame. The torpor timer alerts you when narcotics are needed. The starve timer tracks Food depletion for starve-taming, where you let the food bar drop before placing all food at once.

Found throughout the ARKs, the VR Stegosaurus is a tamable, herbivore creature in ARK: Survival Ascended. It falls within the Variant classification.

The VR Stegosaurus has 160 base Health - relatively fragile. With 100% base Melee Damage, the VR Stegosaurus has decent hitting power. Stamina sits at 1000 base, providing massive stamina reserves. A base Weight of 100 means average weight tolerance.

Taming the VR Stegosaurus requires rendering it unconscious first - use Tranq Arrows, Darts, or Shocking Tranq Darts to apply torpor. For best results, use Regular Kibble - it gives the highest taming efficiency.

Once tamed, the VR Stegosaurus fills a general-purpose role, adaptable to whatever your tribe currently needs. It reproduces by laying eggs, which must be incubated between 22°C and 28°C. Killing a wild VR Stegosaurus yields 5 base XP. It can be cloned at a Cloning Chamber for 0.29 Element plus 0.01 Element per level.
