Taming & KO Tips
How do I tame a carnotaurus? Tips and strategies on taming and knocking out a carnotaurus.
I knocked it out with a club, just because. I do not recommend. But now I have a carno named Apex.
run into shallow water that you can walk in and go prone and the carno will lose agro this works for terror birds to.
Word to the wise. When raising a baby Carno, remember they require more meat than baby Raptors. I lost a level 150 Carno while I was sleep lol
A low level carno is actually easy to knock out I shot a lvl 10 3 times with my crossbow and boom, it was out I knocked out a lvl 90 with a crossbow and a longneck rifle. PROTECT THE NOOBS!
Hellooo
I just want to say why is everybody doing traps and stuff!!
All you need to do is get on a cliff or rock that it can’t reach you and shoot it with tranq/biotoxin or even with a slingshot you can do this with rexes and theris too.

There are 2 ways you can tame a carno,one can be used for people who has alot of points invested into movement speed,or you can build a trap which is much safer than the first taming method.
1-The first way is more dangerous but costs less and needs less peperation,but the second needs more preparation but is safer than the first),for people with alot of points into movement speed(like I said)how this method works is,first your movement speed needs to be atleast 130-150 or more,as they are a bit slower than a raptor,so,you first attract it's attention by using tranq darts or tranq arrows(for super low levels sling shots MAYBE can be used)but the wooden club is out of the question.
You atract it's attention,then start pelting it with your house or tranq ammo,then when it gets close to you run away from it,when it's atleast 5 meters away from you(about 3-6 foundations),start shooting it with tranq ammo,repeat this process and check it's torpor(it's process of getting knocked out/the purple thing that you view below it's hp with a spyglass),with a spyglass,when it's torpr reaches about 90% it will start to run and flee,then Persue it until it's knocked out.(SN:this method also works with a fast ground mount with some points into movement speed or a fast flying mount,example:raptor for ground mound and pteresaur/pterenadon)
2-build a 2x1 or 2x2 box with the walls being 1 wall high,atract it's attention,lure it into the trap(use a ground mount if it makes you feel safer,like raptor)once it's in the trap,pelt it with the tranq ammo of your choice.
2-whichever method you prefer,once it's knocked out,use narcotics or biotoxin(I prefer biotoxin imo)to keep it asleep,use either raw meat or prime meat for taming,and it ark mobile,use soothing balm with it,this is necessary if you want to tame a high level carno in ark mobile,this works in arks pc version,but thet no soothing balm there,idk what kibble in ark pc carno eats,but feed it,keep it asleep,and protect it with wooden spike walls if you want extra protection.
3-boom,you've got yourself a new and fresh carno,these guy's saddles unlock at level 46,and are monsters,slightly slower than a raptor but, better,more damage,more weight,and more health,if you want a good and powerful Dino in the early game,these guys are it,if have a high level carno,level 300+ preferebly,you can kill low level trexes eazily,but be careful,I think raptors can pull you off your carno with their pounce ability.

I just got it stuck and shot it in the face with tranqs ✌️👏🏽
If you have a flyer get on a rock the carno can't reach or on multiplayer get a friend and a flyer and grab your friend and let him/she shoot the carno with anything that has torpor
A simple way to get these guys is to simply distract them with something delicious. Command something tanky (Ex. Carbonemys) to attack them, then set them to passive so they don’t kill the Carno. Then, you can pelt it with a slingshot or bow and tranq arrow until it goes down. They don’t have the biggest torpor stat, so raising it to max won’t take many tranq arrows (5 if it is extremely low level)
Good luck and have fun!
Rookie taming method (worked first time):
1. Craft a larg bear trap (and about 15 tranq arrows)
2. Find a carno out In the open and easy to see/fire at
3.get carno to aggro on you (somehow) and walk into the trap
4. Tranq it quickly before it breaks out
5. Tame!!!
Now, your probably wondering what do I do to tame a Carno?
1. Make some tranq arrows, about four
2. Find the Carno of course
3. Shoot it on the neck bit but you can on the body
4. This gets tricky, you can feed it raw meat but if it’s over the level of 2, you need prime meat otherwise it will wake up before you can tame it, or just keep feeding it narco berries so it stays unconscious
5. This Carno is your sworn protecter, keep it away from stronger creatures just in case it gets killed
Now you can go get a Carno!
Just go on a nearby cliff bruh ._.
Before my game got overrode I had two of these guys. They were absolute beasts, I would run around with them and farm supplies from dinosaurs. The best way to tame them is to him them once get on a flying mount get on high ground, and then pump them full of tranquilizers. They make great mounts too.
You just need a couple trank arrows, at least about nine, maybe some hide armor, and then climb up onto a rock that he can’t get up onto, then shoot him or something to Agro him, and once he comes to the base of the rock and attempts to kill you, shoot him with the tranks. Then when he tries to run away, just jump down and chase him. But make sure he doesn’t get KOed in water.
Easy tame for anyone with a crossbow and narcs, plus easy breed and makes you feel like a pro
The first time I tamed one I just stood there and walled hits till it was knocked out
Hard thing to tame trap it
Tranq it
Tame it lol
so one time i was in my house and i was crafting a behemoth dino gateway and i hear battle music play i look outside my house and dead carno my dinos killed it in less than 2 seconds
I used an Iguanadon to outrun it whilst shooting it with tranq arrows.
I recommend, if u don’t have a spyglass, to get enough arrows for a 150. Just in case the Carno you have your eye on happens to be that. I tamed a lvl 60 but outrunning it with my raptor and shooting it with arrows. Its not easy, but it gets the job done without having to build traps and stuff like that. You can just bear trap it and knock it that way.
