If you really need one of these perfect tamed, and accidentally get hit during taming, you can get off and KO it to feed it Archelon sushi to restore effectiveness. Might take a while for it to wake up however…. Debatably worthwhile

Hey, this is the person who experimented taming these multiple times and wrote that long ass method on how to tame it. I’m back with a similar method on how to tame, but only applies if you have a buddy or two. Build your square trap made out of metal behemoth gateways and attach the needed gates (dinosaur gateways might work too, just make sure they’re made of metal). Make sure you have a space to enter and exit. Build large bear traps at the end of the trap (farthest away from the side you want the carcha to enter). You’re gonna use your friends as bait, so you might have to play rock paper scissors to decide who takes it for the team. Put your bro or any number of people behind the bear traps and have them shoot the carcha to lure it into the trap. One or both of them may die, but it’s a sacrifice you’re willing to make. When the carcha is attacking your homies and/or stuck in the trap, SHUT THAT DAMN DOOR AS SOON AS POSSIBLE. Kill some animals (gallimimuses, trikes, and wooly rhinos are good examples) and stick them into the trap. Get out of render distance so the carcha will eat it. After eating, the carcha will be a little ornery. This is normal. Get an argy or any carrying animal and scatter a bunch of animals around the area. Get your argy or your carrier tame out of harm’s way, far from the trap as possible. Keep feeding the carcha carcasses until the trust meter goes green, and when it is, ride the carcha and kill many animals as you can.

If you have tamed the carcha, congratulations, you’ve done it!!

If the time that the dinosaur is chill is running out and you’re not far into taming progress, ride the carcha back into the trap and repeat the process.

I hope this tip and my previous one has helped people.

You have to feed it a creature as soon as you feed him the first time! So stock up on bodies and just have it close to you (not to the carchar or it eat them to and won’t give any more friendliness)

For the first taming stage, it is based on drag weight. A baby Rex is good for getting 100% trust. Keep more than one dead baby Rex on hand. If it’s trapped, sometimes it will bug out and it won’t get the friend bar after eating it. Either try again if you have enough baby Rexes to spare, or leave render, come back, and try again.

The second taming stage is based off max health of the Dino you kill. It doesn’t matter how much health that Dino has lost, just what the max health is. Baby brontos work very well for this because they have a high max health at high levels, have low health when hatched, and don’t fight back.

The first thing is to find your carchar. I play on 5x taming at level 9 (max Dino level being 270), that roughly equates to 3x taming at level 5. Do be aware that anything less than 5x taming speed will kick you off when you reach a certain percent of taming. At 1x it’s 20%, 2x 40%, 3x 60%, and 4x 80%. This scales with taming level, not difficulty level. If you’re playing on anything less than 5x, have someone else there with you because you will need to bring it back to the trap and re-trap it before being kicked off at whatever percent and whatever taming. To put it like this: if you are on 1x settings, bring it back to the trap before reaching 20% and continue to chomp on things while in the trap until you are kicked off. You’ll need to feed it another Rex to make it friendly again. If you get kicked off due to running out of time, you will lose a large chunk of taming effectiveness. If you get kicked off because of blood rage or percentage, you will lose very little taming effectiveness. If you fat finger and dismount you’ll lose a good chunk of taming effectiveness.

Once you have your carchar and you know your settings, breed together Rexes for babies, and ideally some at or near max level brontos. Next, using either a dimetredon, otter, ac units, or the egg incubator, incubate the eggs until they have about a minute left on the timer. Pick them up/remove them. If you don’t remove it from the egg incubator in time just pick up the structure and they will drop in a bag. Put all your Rex eggs and bronto eggs on a flying Dino with a high weight stat (argys and dreadmares are good for this, if you want you can put it on a different Dino and black hole that Dino if you have a dreadmare and don’t want to worry about weight)

At your trapped carchar, build some two by two foundation squares with decent spacing. Place railing on three sides. I usually build anywhere from 5-10 of these, depending on the level of the carchar. Using an ac unit (you’ll need a generator with gasoline to run it), otter, or dimetredon, throw out 5-6 bronto eggs into each pen and hatch them all the way. Do this before you do your Rex eggs. When all your baby brontos are out, hatch your Rexes and claim the one you are going to shoot. It stops the rest of the babies from fleeing. Bring your bay over to the carchar and feed it. Pick up one of the gate traps and immediately hop on, don’t let it attack any of the babies yet. If it does, it will raise the blood rage but not the taming meter. You’ll have to wait for it to go back down. Go to the first pen and eat the baby brontos there. Keep an eye on your rage and taming meter, and how much the babies in that pen raised it. That will give you a rough estimate on how many you can eat before you have to wait for it to go down again, like if six babies brought your taming to 15% and your rage to 26, you can chomp on 12 more babies before having to wait to chomp again and bring your taming to 30% (if you’re on 1x rates you need to go back to the trap). If you’re on anything below 5x, bring the carchar back to the trap and have someone bring things to you to chomp on. Ideally you want to be kicked off due to percent or blood rage. Wear good armor for the tame so that if it decides to nibble at you, you don’t get one tapped.

I don't know why people are saying level stam over melee maybe it's a pvp thing but in pve i would say full melee just because it is already way more mobile than a giga and surprisingly very close to its damage considering it has no mutations. All I can say is RIP giga carcha is the new king

It just came out like a day or 2 ago from what I understand. You grab a dead body or a few and get in his face and he will eat it. It will fill he’s friend bar and then you ride it and kill everything and fill it’s tameing bar!

I think it’s a cool way but it’s dangerous so good luck!

Take a army of baby rex to him and he is your

You can actually tame him without traps or anything all you have to do is sneak up with your food of choice (1 baby rex, 1 baby spino, or 3 baby theriz) and feed him it. It works better with two people and i suggest letting him have a distraction to destroy such as a big gate.

And then for the second part just bring rare flowers and its just that easy!

Do you guys think it would have bleed damage

Everyone says use baby Rex which is true but if you are playing asa then don’t bother breeding Rex’s like they say simply find a wild one with a baby kill it imprint to lead it closer to char ha then kill it and feed this also works with diplo if your on 2x server rates

Use 4 METAL gates and 2 LARGE bear traps cryo baby dino( REX,SPINO,BRONTOSAURUS) and murder the baby and offer it up to the carcha and get on it and ride,kill and repeat

To instantly fill the trust meter, feed it a baby T-Rex.

Make trap with 4-5 metall gates and a behemoth gate. Trap him inside . (Gate closed of course)Make the Same trap on the other side of the gate . Feed him with some Baby rex -spino -Wyvern. If he is in friendship Mode throw a Kryo with Bronto - gigas or other Fully grown Tames you can spare. When the are in Kryosleep on the other Side of the Gate .Release the tamed Dinos. Ride the Carcho open the gate eat sleeping Dino. Close the gate and get of him and throw another kryod Dino on the empty Side. Repeat untill you get 100% . That way you can get 100% taming efficency

Do NOT trap this dino. It will usually (not always but usually) aggro to the trap and when it stops it will nerf out and won't eat. It will sniff but not eat.

Get a very durable wyvern with lots of health, set it to follow you, let it munch on the wyv, throw out a baby rex, kill it and drag to carchar. Once carchar sniffs and eats you should be able to ride instantly. Repeat till tamed

The Absolute Best Method my tribe has found with taming these guys is to use a standard metal Dino gate trap for a giga, once trapped things get simpler.

The next step is to use baby Rexs, chuck one out near by but not to close, kill it then drag it close to the trap and when you see him sniff the air drop the body and move away to avoid taking damage.

One Rex baby is enough to fill his trust and you will be able to ride him, so you can demo a gate and use an elixir before you mount if you have them handy for that sweet bonus 30% taming.

So now the fun part, mount up and eat everything you see BUT you need to avoid Alpha Dino’s as you will not be able to kill them they take no damage from the Char as it’s still technically wild, be mindful to try avoid taking damage where possible as it will chip away at your taming effectiveness and on standard rates you will need to repeat the feeding of baby rexs a number of times through out the taming as it will kick you off and can try to kill you.

taming can be quite slow depending on how many wild Dino’s you can find in each run and you may need to repeat the process 4-5 times depending on level and current rates.

Swamps are good for taming these after getting the trust meter

I found a 150 while flying around in a pteranodon. I ran out of stam

In a desperate attempt to save my ptera, I whistled follow and suicided. Then, I used my Argy to lead my pt away.

The problem: now there is a 150 carcha that walked down onto the western approach.

The big peoplem: my base is on the west approach.

The huge problem: I had passive rexes there

Relieving fact: they are baby rexes destined for being carch food

The gigantic titanosaur-stomp sized problem for the other creatures:

A tamed 224 carch named cupcake killing everything

When taming do not go in water! I tried to swim across a lake and it was soooo slow in the water!

If you bring 2 gallis or 2 trikes it's trust meter goes to 100

All you need is a baby rex, unclaim it and kill it, then aproach carca and when it starts sniffing drop it.

Bring few baby rexes just in case.
