If you've got one trapped, and it sniffs but doesn't eat, for whatever reason it doesn't like being trapped??? (Imagine that). You can try leaving the area, and letting it re-render but it may not work. My tribe and I ended up having to let it out of the trap, leaving to let everything re-render, and dragging corpses over to it (while it was running around free - so yes, mildly terrifying), then proceeding with the tame.

Pro-tip for feeding: one of the tribe guys is obsessed with breeding and mutations so we had some very OP rexes. We just cryoed abunch of babies, let it out (with cryosickness is easier), unclaimed and killed it, and it literally only took 1 baby rex to let us start riding. Then repeat to let the Carch eat the corpses while you ride, and viola. Your very own spikey giga.

THIS THING IS NOT A KNOCKOUT TAME! Its a passive tame, all you gotta do is use a giga trap using metal gates (don't use stone or weaker) to surround it, once you trap it kill any creature that you can drag and bring over to the carchar, once you get closer it'll turn towards you and sniff the corspe you brought, when it sniff just drop the corpse and it'll eat it and a taming bar will appear above it, just keep bringing it corpses until that bar is filled, once its filled you'll be able to ride it without a saddle, you'll have 10 minutes to kill as much creatures as possible to increase its taming, once the second taming bar gets filled it'll be tamed and you'll get dismounted so be careful.

NOTE: Wild Carchar has around 70K health very similar to the giga.

As of right now it's out. The way to tame it is by trapping it with metal gates and feeding it dino corpses (the bigger the better). Once you do that a hexagon thing will appear. keep feeding it until hexagon turns green then ride it and kill everything you see. Bam! You got a new dino buddy!

so a lot of people seem to not know how to properly tame a carch. you have 2 options; feed it a baby rex (which gives it full trust) or, have fun by killing tons of dinos. I prefer the second method, after that you ride it and kill a ton of creatures, and no, it's not smart to use tamed creatures, as it's faster to kill a ton of small creatures. in extinction it's extremly easy to get 100% effectiveness when taming. by the way, if it has 40% melee starting out, and if you have a giga that has 30% melee, it's mainly because if you tame anything lower than level 30 or so it doesn't have any points in melee.

This is actually deceptively easy to tame if you do a little setup. You will need of creatures with super high health you don't mind losing (cryopodded), a baby yutyrannus(cryopodded), a large bear trap or two, and 4 metal dinosaur gateways. Once you find your carch, place down 3 of the gates in a \_| shape, with the opening facing your carch. Place your bear trap(s) inside. After that lead the carch into your trap, preferably with something that's fast and can take hits. Once it's in the bear traps, place a final dino gate completing the square. Once that's done, put all your carnivorous creatures on passive, and slaughter the baby yutyrannus. Drag it's corpse over to the carch wich should sniff the air and then eat it. Beware of argentavis, as they will steal the corpse. Once it has eaten the corpse, the carch will temporarily become ridable. Dismantle one side of the trap and walk it out. Next, you'll want to uncryo your high health tame and make sure it is cryo-sleeping. Once it is, unclaim it and then mount the carch and eat it. Repeat the past two steps until your carch is tamed.

Hey guys welcome back! Its me TheGamingINDO445! Its been a while since ive been posting... so ill be posting on how to tame the Carcharodontosaurus!

Requirments for the tame:

1: 4 Metal Gateways (Not behemoth)

2: Any type of gun

3: Ammo or Bullets (Both work)

4: Carcharodontosaurus Saddle (Aqquired in lvl 96)

5:Corpses (Any dead creature)

6:Defensive Gear

7: Large bear trap (Trapping large creatures)

Lets start!

Step 1: Find one (I recomend Ragnorok for looking one, and they spawn at where the gigas spawn.)

Step 2: Then trap your Carchar in your bear trap and gates.

Step 3: Kill or bring your animal corpses to the Charcar, then youll see this friendship bar. Once you feed the Charcar enough corpses you now can destroy the bear trap and gates then you can ride it because its at full friendship meter.

Step 4: Go around dinos and start attack and killing them and once you kill enough dinos you can tame it! But be aware since if the dino that you are attacking can attack you back which drops your taming effectiveness like 0.1-0.9% and the better the dino that your killing the more taming percentage you get!

Step 5: Equip your saddle and go in the ARK and explore with your new friend.👍

Thanks for seeing my guide, make sure you liked this tip and if you do pls like it. So anyways BYE GUYS!

During the taming process After it allows you to ride it ensure the bloodrage meter does not reach 100 otherwise it will kick you off and start to eat you. The taming effectiveness goes down only when it takes damage while you are riding it. Try to attack and kill things that cannot hit you with attacks or you will start to lose levels
