What are tips for carcharodontosaurus? Tips and strategies for carcharodontosaurus in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
On the island, try to get a spawn near the redwoods since due to how many things live there, the second stage of the tame will be easy
After taming, if you choose to breed them they will become a full time job unless you have a maeguna. They raise very slowly unless its 2x and after reaching juvenile, 1 carcha will eat 4 troughs of cooked meat in 45mins before reaching 25%. After 25% they seem to slow down the eating a bit. I have yet to play test with tek troughs but will update when I do!
Just kill everything you see that’s not a them spikey small Dino’s that you attack does dance back
They are the same as the giga so if u see one it is certain deayh unless u have about 30 levels into movement speed
(This is a solo tip idk how it would go in PVE or PVP) not that hard of a tame actually, it basicaly only take a baby apex creature (rex, spino, yuty etc...) to allow you to mount it, my first Carcha was a lvl 25 and i was level 32, i tamed 2 really low level spinos, made them breed, mercilessly killed their offspring, dragged it to the Carcha, the beast sniff the corpse giving you time to take some distance off of it, and once it eat its meal you mount ! Then you kill everything in your path, took me only one run with some hit taken (91% effectiveness) but i managed to get this wonderfull beast, though now its kinda useless because i can't ride her...
But technically you can get a Carcha really soon in the game, rex are kinda easy to tame for the SACRIFICE !
How to tame a Carcha with the Equus Hunter
1. Get a baby yuty, or Rex
2. If you have galli’s line them up and unclaim them
3. Ride the Carcha and kill the galli’s
4. Success! You now have a Carcha!
5. Make the saddle!
Gl and hope it helped!
Ok, I literally cannot find this thing anywhere😕 I’m currently on the Island and I can’t find any of these. Someone please help😭
Wonder where it will spawn on the maps.
I don't know why (and it's also like this for giga for me), when i tame them they always have 50% melee not 100%.
Use the votes to indicate if this happens to you as well. (This is ark survival evolved on custom settings)
NINTENDO SWITCH BUG
The first time you throw out a newly tamed carch put your stuff in a chest then throw out the newly tamed carch because when you throw the cryo all your stuff will disappear and your character will be messed up but this Glitch only applies to the first time you throw your carch out of the cryopod so you can freely cryopod your carch after
Can someone please tell me where they spawn on ragnarok? I neeed one 🥲
It's not a ko tame bring trikes to it and rexs
You may ask, how many baby rexs will i need for the entire taming process? Well, its 1 for 100% trust, but your most likely not to complete the entire taming process in one go, so here’s a list: (i still recommend extra rexs incase there is a lack of creatures in your area)
Lvl 1-40: 1 or 2
Lvl 40-80: 2-3
Lvl 80-150: 2-5
It really depends on how many and what creatures are around, but its never guaranteed for a one and done, so good luck and happy taming.
Does this Dino require a saddle
Taming these is easier than it seems, you don't even need a trap, depending on the settings you might only need one baby rex.
Cryo the baby rex, find the carcha and kill the rex and drag it to the carcha and the trust meter should be full.
First try to tame one. I hadn’t been able to find a good level one but if you need creatures to kill- you can give several babies or low levels.
I used Wyvern babies- didn’t even trap it- I did have to run after him but other than that he was an easy tame.
Make sure the area is clear of anything that can kill you. And ensure you sit your flier a bit back
Bro if you have a good rhynio killing one should be a breeze. I killed one HEAD ON with my rhynio that has 16k health and 600% melee. I was landed in front of him and spammed attack while he hit me back. And i STILL WON. For a higher level i wouldnt suggest taking it head on as the damage output is worlds apart from a low level. It will take a good 20 minutes but you can kill it in the air with relative ease. Btw i also was using a primitive rhynio saddle so this victory was purely because of my rhynio’s stats and no outside stuff.
