More Carcharodontosaurus Utility Tips
My tribe did this once. Instead of taming a high level carch, they gained its trust. For the 10 minutes, they used its wild stats to absolutely DECIMATE a enemy tribe, including their giga (which was low level) and the massacre got it tamed. They used it to its highest advantage, and some of you should try that too
Has a bloodrage buff that counts kills up to 100 and slowly decays when you don't make kills. At full rage, does x2.75 damage. Gets a 10 sec buff after every kill that greatly increases movement speed and gives stun immunity. Much tighter turn radius than a giga, runs faster, a little better stamina scaling. Seems like either bloodrage or the speed buff heals it a bit as well. Has a roar that zeros out the bloodrage counter. I'm told the roar gives a speed buff to allies. Tail spin attack a similar to a Reaper. Overall, it is comparable to or better than a giga in most respects.
Guys, please don’t mess with player damage in ARK ultimate edition unless you want to accidentally kill your carch, use backup save to get it back, and then accidentally kill it again so that you have no carch anymore.
I definitely didn’t do this, and I definitely didn’t stop playing for a few days because of it.
You definitely can’t hit your own friggin dinosaurs and kill them, either…….
In my opinion, this Dino is amazing. And here’s why it’s better than a giga: It runs way faster than giga, way more stam, and the rage can really stack. The tail attack allows it to hit everything around it, while the giga can only bite in one direction. Overall, this great Dino will DEFINITELY be worth taming :)
