What are tips for carcharodontosaurus? Tips and strategies for carcharodontosaurus in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
Use a baby rex for 100% trust if you dont have any just find trikes
Y'all don't actually need to trap it and prepare a baby Dino if U have a rhyniognatha, y'all just need to find a nearby rex or spino, carry it ALIVE to somewhere near the carcha but not near enough for it to notice U, kill the rex or spino U carried here and drag the body with ur rhyniognatha, it will be slow asf but trust the process. Once the carcha do a SNIFF animation just wait there for it to eat ur offering(btw if Ur wearing ghillie take it off just incase) and if it shows a green sign at top of it's head then congrats now just ride it and kill anything U see until it fully trust U(note that U might want a second flier or a parachute cuz rhynio won't follow U, maybe even a sleeping bag just incase ur didn't have time to react when it throws U off after tame)
Make sure not to take fall damage while trying to get your kills in. It lowers the taming effectiveness a lot!
If you want this dino to trust you, you will have to drag a baby Rex and wants to sniff then you go up closer and then you drop the body for you don't have to take anybody damage and that's how it still trust you and them and if you wanna find one, you will go where you found one before
During the process you have to ride and kill stuff after giving it dead body's but to do the ride process try to make the carca be near the red woods because it gets tryst points for killing bugs and other stuff in the red woods
Not a giga remake HOWEVER it has similarities to other dinos.
It's special attack is a slow version of the baryonyx's tail spin
It has a distinct roar similar to a giga and yutyrannus.
It looks like a giga with spikes.
It's walk and run and kill buff are all unlike any ark dino.
(And only old ark players will recognize the eye fire the giga used to have once u fell off a cliff riding one. Luckily it doesn't kick off the rider and go berserk on everything it sees like the giga used to)
Sacrificing 3 Diplos with around 78k health each will give a perfect tame. Did this yesterday on a single player world and managed to get a 150 male Carcha (tamed 225), only issue is you've got to surround the carcha in metal gates and place a behemoth gate and door in between the Carcha and Diplo in order to prevent the Carcha from eating the Diplo without you mounting it
I learned this from syntac: when you have it's trust bar filled, ride it then go on a killing spree with the carcha but when the dino your carcha is trying to kill is neutral or aggressive, it will attack the carcha as normal, but it will lower the taming sensitivity, so yeah don't get attacked too much.

I actually play solo because I can't figure out how to join a server(it always kicks me out :/) meaning I dont have a tribe and things to help me, so when I want to tame a carcha, I usually use a Rhyniognatha( you dont have to, any flyer works) because they are pretty fast and reliable, so I find a carcha(usually in the cold biome on The Island map), use keys to hatch a rex egg because its to cold to incubate, and drag it straight to the carcha without a trap because I dont have to worry about it attacking me, since baby rexes usually give 100% trust, meaning you can ride the carcha instead of it attacking you.
Step 1:tame two rexes(Doesn't have to be high lv)
Step 2:Let them do funky time
Step 3:Pet the baby rex
Step 4:have the best time with him
Step 5:Cryo him
Step 6:Sacrifice him to mighty charchar
Step 7:kill hundreds of innocent creatures while riding the charchar
Step8:You have charchar
Step9:remember that gigas will always be da best
Step10:your done
This creature might be slightly larger then a giga sense in the dossier it says Helena isn't even sure if it was fully grown and hopes it was. Meaning this thing at most is as tall as a giga or slightly taller. As for the abilities, it has a war cry similar to that of a yutyrannus but we aren't sure what it fully does, a tail sweep which is super powerful, a bite that even if it misses will cause critical levels of damage and the most noteable ability, the bloodlust ability. Just like a shark, it gets more vicious when it tastes blood and in the dossier it says it can take on larger creatures when it is in the bloodlust mode. Meaning the bloodlust mode is an overall attack boost to it. However there is one critical downside to this thing, when tamed it doesn't have a saddle so it may be like a wyvern to where you take all damage thrown at you and or like how shadowmanes are with their natural armor. We just gotta see what the Carchara is like on release.
What’s with everyone trapping these, they’re insanely easy to tame , just get a baby Rex or whatnot, then it’s a free Carcha!.
Fun fact I found one without even trying and i had just entered a freshly new world 🥲
Baby giga is also an insta trust.
Bro I tried to trap it with stone not grate idea then broke out killed me then I tried to it back… Boom it’s faster then my gallemimes then it guided it till it despond moral of the story USE METAL
A quick but easy way to tame this Beast and have fun in pvp servers is to gain it's trust and then raid a nearby tribe, kill all of them and their dinos then it should be tamed.
After you trap one you can use a pachyrhinosaurus too attract a bunch of wild stuff to you then kill them and feed it for the taming.
