ARK: Survival Evolved & Ascended Companion
Tips & Strategies
I found one near my base on extinction in the morning biome. I was not even a bit prepared to tame it so I had to kill it or I would have killed all my dinos and would have destroyed my whole stone structure base. I've killed a female Level 22 of it with an Argentavis which had about 3.000% melee damage. It took a while and my Argentavis was several times at 800 HP or less of 2.700 HP. The Carcha was a bit stuck or at least slowed down by trees or otherwise it would have turned faster and it would have been much harder to hit it with the Argentavis without my Argentavis getting killed.
More Carcharodontosaurus Encountering Tips
You can only find these beasts on mountains but it is a kinda rare spawn
Fun fact:
carcharodontosaurus, giganotosaurus and allosaurus are are related! They’re classified as “carnosaurs” (not the same at carnoTaurus😉)
They were large carnivores thought very capable of taking down large sauropods due to specific skull structure and teeth design… these guys didn’t have the crushing bite strength of Rex, which destroyed its victims by sheer force, but these carnosaurs were special… they had narrow, long skulls with thin palates and long, very sharp serrated teeth… they were bladelike. The carnosaurs supposedly used these large teeth and thin skulls that presumably also had special shock absorbing necks to slash at the sides and necks of massive long necked herbivores until they bled to death!
That’s why I think the gnash ability is very accurate in this game, and it’s pretty cool.
Carnosaurs also possessed long legs and slender bodies… they were suited for the quick hit and run attack made on these sauropods. Just appreciate these dinosaurs, and appreciate ark for including them.
(Except for the hilarious size of gigas and carchs… not that I really have a problem with it, but you know🤣)
Hope you all enjoyed!
I was going to blue obelisk to fight Megapithecus, and saw a level 9 of one these bad boys. I told my friend that I’m going to keep our army as far as I possibly could from that thing, then the rexes start running, me and my friend look over, and they are fighting. I have no choice, I send in the whole army for the most scariest battle of my life, I thought I would win. 30 seconds later I lost 19 rexes, 1 yuty, myself, and my friend. DO NOT GO NEAR THESE THINGS IF YOU LOVE YOUR FAMILY.
Carch give almost 4x more xp than a giga.
K really you only find these were Gigas are in highlands mountains snow up it this was helpful
I just found a level 10 giga and then 10 meterd away from that a level 30 giga… then 60 meters to the right a level 100 charcharo im planning on sacrificing a baby rex to it wish me luck guys
I don’t have to run faster than the carcha. I just have to run faster than my friends.
After you gain a wild carcharos trust (the hexagon turns GREEN), it you are able to damage it and it will not attack back (tested on ark use) this allows you to easily kill it within 10 minutes using a high damage dino as carcharos with a green hexagon cannot damage tamed creatures unless the tamed creatures are unclaimed, (I tried this with tamed low level creatures I no longer needed) and are only aggressive to wild creatures. However when the 10 minute timer expires the carcharo will roar, dismount you if you were riding on it then after a few seconds it will act like a wild carcharo again and attack you and your tames.
Don’t make these guys angry they will kill you, your pt, your rex, your neighbor, your disowned uncle, and your favorite cartoon character, please be careful.
Me and my dad were getting metal at the volcano and we saw a stuck charcardontosaurus, so I was like no way I’m going in there, but my dad was like it’s stuck it’ll be fine. So he went in but I stayed flying. We were both on argys btw. He goes in turns out, surprise, surprise, the charcardontosaurus wasn’t stuck and he got one shotted, buuuuut his level 80 argy literally one v oned that charcardontosaurus and beat him!
