Fun Fact:

If you’re trying to use a baby Rex/Spino (Takes trust to 100%), it has to be unclaimed. I didn’t know this and got so mad when it wouldn’t eat the baby Rex and then figured out I had to close the game and unclaim it before I try to feed it to this absolute beast. Have fun taming!!

REMEMBER THAT YOU ALWAYS NEED TO LURE IT INTO THE TRAP ON FOOT! Do not do it while on a flier. I just wasted so much of my time before because I kept luring it with my wyvern.

The roar doesn’t get rid of stacks and if you reach 99 it kicks you off, but this is preferred over the timer running out as it loses less efficiency. Also rexes spinos and yutys all give friendship in one feed.

A few things from a guy (me) who spent nightmarish 2h on 145 lvl without gates and cryoed dinos:

- just do it with gates, as you will be torturing yourself because of his broken AI, but remember to make some free space, as when I made him a trap with 4 metal gates he refused to eat as well to bite me, just stood there and did nothing (might be a bug)

- his taming meter nor blue riding meter do not get reduced by attacking or eating wild dinos on his own (haven't tested damage, but getting hurt certainly reduces effectiveness, so it's on the other hand very easy to tame it on 100% effectiveness)

- as there's x3 now on officials, for 145lvl you will be dropped off his back on around 60%+

- not sure if it scales with taming multiplier, but his blue meter above head while feeding him corpses can get filled by (2 trikes) or (2 carbo 1 phiomia/para) (just test anything around as you have nothing to worry because...

- it will never attack you when you drag a corpse, and when it sniffs just drop the body and stay near it around 3-6 times of ur body length away to make it still eat it (as it somehow ignores the body when I instantly run away some distance from it) and be ready to run away (you certainly can do so when it's got an audio of eating)

- if it sniffs the body and goes for a walk (stupid **** AI) you can always safely stay here near the corpse no matter what until 1 of 2 options happens: a) it will be stupid enough to just flee from you 200m+, which will reset the sniff thing b) will make a circle or just walk around you - never stay then IN the body, as it has already sniffed it and after the walk it can get near and eat it, so be ready

- carcha easily gets aggroed on structures - metal things are good, cus it can t destroy them (somehow stops aggroing on before placed structures after first ride)

- be cautious as when it gets enraged (after eating a wild dino) and you don't have a body (to make him peaceful) its speed increases drastically and is able to catch you very very very easily

- don"t stress yourself out about the drops off its back during taming itself, as it does throw you far enough to let you run away from it

- the taming after he drops you off its back does stay for pretty long time no matter how many wild dinos it will hunt during the process, and when it actually starts to decrease, the amounts by which it goes down are very niche

- not sure how hitboxes work, but it broke my leggings after one bite (you can still have 1-2 pieces of flak on yourself and live a bite if you have 200hp like me)

- during riding I realised that everything of trike size and smaller give around identical taming values (killing armies of meganeuras and titanomyrnas are very stonks) (remember I was dealing with wild dinos only)

- if you find yourself on terrain with low to medium amounts of dinos around you don't have to worry, as the time it gives you while riding is exactly enough

Honestly, my tribemates and I have had minimal luck and low taming efficiencies using the trap method.

So we use the cryo baby method or have a two team, one feeding, one killing and dragging who switch off to keep a constant flow of corpses to an uncaged Carchar. You have time, not long so move fast, to get out of kill range after feeding the Carchar solo. For the tag team, usually the other player is bringing in another corpse as the first is finishing a feeding and the Carchar goes from eating to immediately back into its sniffing animation.

Using this method we have had more than a little luck getting 98+% efficiency with Carchar taming. Not to mention, no prep work building a cage, taunting the beast in and having it go on a foodstrike when you're trying to become friends! Frustrating and SO much time lost!

Hope this helps!

If you fail to fill meter up on high level car, just give it another baby rex and hop back on!

These guys r the ultimate beast of ark

Does the lower lvl need as much to kill as a high lvl when riding it?

Don't fock with this dino it killed my while 4 man team and 5 argintavis

On the center:

Spawn at top right volcano sometimes in center (or gigas, their spawns are interchangeable)

*Can also spawn top left snow biome (usually left side under cliff area near cave or bottom (left) ish area)

*Can also spawn right side of bottom snow (only if the others are blocked usually)

*Doesn’t need, nor should use a trap, get an argy and pick and kill babies, kill then a decent amount out of vision range of the carch then bring it to the carch (drag body), it’ll sniff then eat.

*(wild or tamed rex, paracer, and cerato babies insta 100% worthiness)

(All besides spawns are the same, the island they usually spawn on the volcano, near metal mountain, or on one of the snow mountains (usually blue ob)

Fax: if you really wanna see it. Actually it isn’t that hard just enable stuff to do this just type gmsummon “carcha_character_bp_c” [level]

Ark is doing a vote for fan made creaturs the ones I’m intreasted in is hatzgepterox and kronosaurs it end in the 23rd

After spending hours trying to figure out how to tame this brute of a beast, my wife and I found a way that worked like an absolute charm.

First, get a team of at least two people. One person must be wearing ghille armor and get into the charcis area. Be sure to fly in or have at least one decent Argentavis with you.

Second, start a kill pile of animals that can be dragged such as Carnos, trikes, and parasaurs. The bigger the better.

Third, have the player in ghille armor approach the charchi with a kill in hand to activate the handshake. DO NOT use a metal cage or traps as this will cause the charci to bug. Once the charchi begins ro sniff, drop the kill and run away. Repeat this step until the handshake stage is complete and turns green.

The final step requires teamwork. One person must ride the charchi to begin killing animals to start the taming process. The other person must use an argentavis to fly ahead of the charchi and begin wounding large animals such as diplos, brontos, and allosauruses. This way, the charchi can get large kills with almost no effort or damage (which negatively effects the taming efficiency) while preserving as much stamina as possible. Having your teamate fly ahead also allows the player on the charchi to more easily locate prey.

We're on the our second charchi now and this has worked wonderfully. Happy taming!!

They are very strong and hard to tame, not to mention that they are very rare. So good luck finding them.

Trap with 4 metal gates and a large bear trap. Leave render distance so it stops attacking, then killed a rex (rexes get instant friendship) then drag it to the trapped dino. If it doesn’t eat leave render distance and come back

That silly glow that surrounds you after being chomped by these needs to be removed, cant see jack all past it.

These do unresisted damage to angry rocks (golems).

So if youre on scorched or generally surrounded by angry rocks: Enjoy the fun :)

Ok so, in order to tame a car, you need 4 Dino gateways, a large bear trap, and a cryopod with baby wyverns in it ( if you don’t have any baby wyverns, a dead wild animal will work too! Just not as well), and a good saddle for when you tame it. You lead it into your trap, and once you have trapped it, kill your Dino of choice ( I recommend baby wyverns very effective!). Once that is done, you should be able to ride it. Just remember it is not tamed yet! Get it out of the trap and kill those baby wyverns. Make sure you get thrown off BEFORE the time runs out. By then, the tame is ruined and you can’t tame it. A good leveled high level car can kill a giga. I will be sure to post a good name on name ideas tab!

Carchars give more xp than gigas by 3.75x

The carchar is better than the giga in many ways like it has a tighter turning radius and better stamina to, though the way the points are is like a giga by only adding a small amount to each stat.
