Make sure you don’t have a shoulder pet on while taming as you won’t be able to drag dead Dino’s. Also it force kicks you off after the game is complete so be careful of the fall damage. I died right after taming one because of this.
Just Chad it out and pre stack a couple dead trikes then start feeding it. Once it sniffs, get the hell out of dodge and repeat.
Anytime I would use the old “lock it in a metal gate cage” the Carcharodontosaurus would just bug out and not eat food. Decided to tame it freely, easiest way possible.
If you don’t want to kill a Rex to feed to the Carcharo, 2 andrews work as a good substitute. Just make sure that Carc is on free roam and not trapped to not get the bug where it will sniff but not eat.
Feed them baby Rex’s it puts their trust up by alot
Don’t try to kill kentro on the second phase of taming it, taming Efficiency will go down each bite
Best giga slayer in all the worlds
One thing u don’t want to happen is to see a carcar look and then roar at u in the corner of ur screen happened to meh
Might feel a little cheat(y) but if you breed two high level Rexes and hatch the baby near the Carchar, kill it, you can drag it’s body and it’ll instantly be ready to tame. Lower taming rates will require more rexes but it’s effective.
This Dino is an absolute beast. I used a low level I tamed (had around 110melee) and took on a level 45 giga. If you boost up its blood rage it can hit hard. It's tail swipe knocks back gigas no problem and it's health regeneration its unreal. Make sure you have a lot of meat in its inventory because when I was battling the giga its hunger shot right down. Also it helps to put some distance between you and the giga now and then to give it chance to recover stam and food.
Get a tek suit. Go find one kill a few Dino near it. Drag a body over to it. Watch for the sniff then drop and boost into air drop and run to the pile of bodies and repeat. It’s the best way I found
The best map for finding one of these guys is extinction, by far. They spawn all around the snow dome, in the same places as a giga. The chance of them spawning is also yellow compared with red on all other maps.
Best way to tame them is by getting their meter up (sacrifice a few tamed trikes or something) and then just go kill a bunch of corrupted creatures. U could also go into the snow biome and rack up kills.
Up if u found this useful!
I killed 13 Gigas before one finally spawned, its either im very unlucky or they have a low spawn chance.
10min timer. I recommend killing Dino’s with low hp. 1-3 hits at least.
taking damage reduces taming effectiveness
any and all Dino’s give the same amount of taming progress when killing
To tame a Carcharodontosaurus, you first need to trap it. Carry dinosaur corpses to the trapped Carcharodontosaurus and it will eat. A "trust" progress meter will appear above the Carcharodontosaurus. Once the meter is filled, ride the Carcharodontosaurus and a taming bar will appear. Kill creatures while riding the Carcharodontosaurus to fill up its taming bar.

P.s carchar is my favourite dino
