Stygimoloch Costume — Detailed Guide
Dressing a Pachycephalosaurus as a Stygimoloch
The Stygimoloch Costume is a cosmetic costume in ARK: Survival Evolved and ARK: Survival Ascended. The ASE description says what it does: "This costume can be used to make your Pachycephalosaurus look like a Stygimoloch!" It weighs 0 and was added in version 280.114. In ASE it has a stack size of 1, and crafting one gives 1 XP.
Bones, a Cooking Pot and the ARKaeology event
The costume belongs to the ARK: ARKaeology event. While that event runs, survivors gather enough 
Dinosaur Bones and craft the costume in a 
Cooking Pot. The ARK Wiki adds that tier 3 loot crates can contain it as well.
A debated dinosaur
The wiki also touches on the science behind the costume. Palaeontologists have argued for years over whether the Stygimoloch was a valid taxon of its own, or simply a different species or a not-yet-adult form of the Pachycephalosaurus. The Dracorex is caught up in the same debate: it is often thought to be a young Pachycephalosaurus rather than a genus in its own right.
