Okay so you circle around the turtles and hit them.. after that you get mojo berries(Purple berries) since they work the best you feed them. Once you tamed them they make the best defence pets i had two of them and they are godly defenders. Please up this so the nubs can see and become one of the pros.

Utility Roles for Carbonemys:

1. Tank. A very bulky dino for early game, due to their easy taming method they are worth taming just for their bulk alone. They take reduced damage everywhere but their head. Unfortunately, are outclassed by the Trike later on. (level Health)

2. Early game water mount. Their saddle is relatively inexpensive to craft, and they are significantly faster in water. Plus, no Oxygen stat means you can have access to local waterways around your base. Just don't try traversing the ocean...(level Health, Stamina, and Movement Speed)

3. Scout (if you want). They are slow, even while sprinting, but their bulk is good for any scouting missions you want to do in the early game. (level Stamina and Movement Speed)

4. Kibble Maker. Their eggs are classed as Medium, and they lay at a decent rate. Great for Regular Kibble!

My name is ShinyChimchar01 and if you like this tip, I've done similar tips on the Trike, Raptor, and Parasaur and my next tip is on the Lystrosaurus!

If you accidentally punch one of these I recommend running to the nearest rock and slowly walking away behind it. The carbonemys will loose interest and walk away. This is because it won’t see you, But if it doesn’t work run away but what ever you do… DON’T SWIM AWAY!!! Carbonemys are giant turtles and turtles swim. They have really high health stats (if your a noob) and swim fast. Unless you have a fast swim mount or fly mount you can swim or fly over the water to escape.

I hope this helped!

You can use it for taming dinos, just level it up and put the levels in health and if you are taming some (unlike raptors they can pounce on you) just sit at its back and shoot the creature.

Please up it so who don't know can see it.

Secret : you can hop on there back even if they’re not tamed! Just jump on their back you get a free ride they don’t care!

These creatures are slow but don’t underestimate these creatures they are Also kinda strong they can harvest berries and to tame one you have to tranquillize it by just shooting them and give it some berries done hope it helps

When walking a carbonemys backwards towards a turret it takes less damage towards the carbonemys , making draining a turret more efficient.

310 points   🥚 Taming & KO   Jul 17, 2022   Report

how to tame : ( for easy difficulty

first get mejoberries at least 75 if ur doing it for the first time

second get slingshot and get rocks (45-65)

third slowly walk back and hit the turtle continuously with the slingshot or stand on a high rock and keep hitting it

fourth after you knock it unconscious put mejoberries in inventory and wait( if high lvl you might need narcotics or bio toxin)

fifth craft a saddle for it

170 hide

95 fiber

10 cementing paste(to get it u can craft it in a mortar and pestle with 8 stone and 4 chitin/keratin

six enjoy!

Before knocking out a turtle to tame it, magnifying glass it to see the base health so you know that you will get a good health turtle.

This is an awful animal to underestimate. When I first played the game, I thought I could kill one for easy meat and resources. The douche took 6 spears to the face, broke my leg, and speed-walked after me as I limped away. DO NOT UNDERESTIMATE.

1. Find one

2. Tranq it ( they are easy to outrun)

3. Give berries (best are mojo)

4.wait till tame👍

When backing it up to drain turrets, set it to follow something that's in a safe place before you hop on. That way if you get sniped off the saddle your turtle will follow whatever animal to safety.

Easy tames. Use a slingshot to the head and bac way while shooting( it’s a f###ing turtle, chalrles) it eats berries and use nacros.like so noobs can see.

336 points   ⚔️ Encountering   Oct 9, 2020   Report

Their weak spot is their legs, noobs, hit the legs with ur bow/crossbow.

Oh yea if u want to KO one, slingshot them

The best way to kill one is to shoot them. Ranged weapons because they are very slow

Create the ultimate turtle breeding group. Call yourself the turtle god. Put your mega tortols in aggressive, pick it up with quetzal, drop these babies on other tribe's turrets.

You now have the ultimate turret soaker. Let all other players feel the wrath of the turtle god. Your power is limitless, your defense is unfathomable, they shall all bow before your might. You are turtle god, bullet's demise, the ultimate waster of resources, who would dare defy you?

Use tranq arrows to knock it out and since its slow just run away when it gets close, use mejoberrys when knocked out.

carbonemys(turtle) can kill groups of cnidaria (jellyfish) easily also turtles eat jellyfishs in reality.

like if it wass helpful 👇🏿❣️

These sea creatures are early game tanks, able to tank out damage while you escape. They are very easy to tame, no need for a trap. I got around 6 or them near my base all over 3000 hp and they make jolly well defenders. The thing is they are slow. I do short reviews on other herbivores, pls like.
