Tips & Strategies
Because of their ability to heal off of kills, these guys are the ultimate kings of anything endurance related. Gigas may still be the one to toss out if there's something in front of you that needs to die right this moment, but if you want to run around just about anywhere killing everything in your way for hours, without ever needing to stop to heal, a imprinted char with good stats, is unmatched.
Shares spawns with Gigas. So they can only be found in maps with Gigas. Making Gigas even more rare than they were before on certain maps.
I don’t really like real life carcharodontosaurus but it’s ark is adding it I would like to talk about it (No negativity) also carcharodontosaurus is in my top 10 favorites so it’s still cool
First I want to start out with saying I don’t believe this is a giga reskin, just a big theropod that is being added to ark.
It would be cool if we finally had an animal that could kill wild gigas with ease so if this is gonna be powerful like that it would be cool. The problem with that thought would mean that it would be op wild to and maybe even stronger wild so we should probably get rid of that thought (not carcars. Don’t get rid of carcars) or cry when we get out butts kicked by carcars. I think this is also gonna be a great addition to ark cause they added spinosaurus it’s almost natural enemy so maybe the carcar may actually be weaker than spino but builds up rage overtime. This is unlikely though because wild spinos are really weak if not high level. Imagine if it has bleed to, it could be a op giga killer or boss fighter. The problem with that is both it may be nerfed the day it comes out and what if it couldn’t go into the boss arena. It could be a great base raider too because of its sheer power. Imagine if it could break tek… scary! Imagine you get this by accident as a lvl 10- and just kill anything in sight the whole play through. Also taking this to maps such as extinction. It could be perfect for titan killers because it gets stronger over time and it may have bleed. Anyways that’s it for now if you read this far thanks so much

So to shorten for yall and ark community carcharodontosaurus lets call it carchar. So far we only know that carchar can be a potential giga killer, a must raid dino because of its roar boost and lastly that it is a pretty lethal creature that seems to not have a saddle? Of course it might have a built in saddle or it might be rideable without it. Pretty exited for it it is my favorite dinosaur after all and it will probably be the 1st dino I will fully stack mutate to above 200 base health and melee stats
When you want to take it you will probably want to trap it and if it is still trying to eat your builds fly up with a flyer and I’m render it then go back down and feed it the dead animal witch you should do a baby Rex to fill the trust meter to full and go kill everything you see and have fun 😁👍
Their eggs make yellow Excptional kibble.
This is epic. I mean, the Giga is the king of ark, and it had no rival. Until now. I wanna be able to see a giga have a challenger to its throne, where you can be strolling past and a giga goes after you but one of these bad boys show up and it becomes a turf war. Then you could either run for cover or be obliterated in the crossfire, or your enemies show up with a giga and you pull out one of these. Then it is a test of power. Man these are gonna be sick
Please don’t eat me I don’t taste like steak 🥩.
One rex is good enough to fill it's friendliness bar up all the way. Tested with a lvl 140 on x1. You need roughly 1k weight to drag one though.
If your like me your usually going to find them unexpectedly when your trying to tame a equus or something and then you cry because you lost that, Dino but then you get a brilliant idea to tame the Car but end up dieding.
Drag dead baby rexes to it,then go to a swamp/river and kill all the fish fir easy taming, dont attack large creatures, jst multiple small ones
I just figured out tropical wyvern eggs give you a 75% respect bar for these big guys, And taking them into caves with massive Dino spawns is very effective! GLHF!
Pve official strategy:
When hunting take with you cryofridge, generator, gas, 2 foundations, 3 babies rex and ofc metal gates and trap (I don’t really use trap with bug). Once it is in the trap, place the foundation and everything, you’ll have 0 issue to fill the bar.
Yw!
can't wait this things gonna make the giga look soft
Bring it trike and morellatops bodies, and get a few bodies stashed away in case you can’t find anymore Dino’s fast enough, I tamed my first one last night, but my cryopod glitches and kinda just ate it, if you have a quetzal with a platform saddle bring that; but bodies on top of it and bring them down from that when it’s ready, this way you can stay out of reach
Don't use traps...
I repeat "DON'T USE TRAPS"
Bcz some times they glitch and do not eat, this is very irritating. I was trying to tame a 130 carcha, but this glitch irritated me.
Simplest technique is to do is tame 2-3 low level trikes. Cryopod them and go to carchar location. Then uncryo all trikes, unclaim and kill them. Drag trike's body near the carcha, when sniffing animation starts run for your life, charcha will approach the body and eat it. It will take 2 trikes to fill full trust meter...
Now kill many dinos as possible, and ENJOY THIS BIG BOI
*Giga is still GOAT*
Let's just hope it isn't build like a Giga
