Look at those cute tiny arms you should give it a hug
This Dino was a lvl 3 and one shotted me. Took all my clothes and half my health
I remember that i had a run in with a carno i had a spear and hide armor i tryed to run but couldnt so i attacked and it did like 10 percent of hp when it attacjed it had 939 hp prob and i won
I've developed a method for taking out these beasties whilst you (and, hopefully, the carno) are still in the lower levels. Grab yourself a bow and a few handfuls of tranq arrows, and then play a game of 'catch me if you can' with your foe. (Hopping up on rocks, running in a zig-zag pattern, and taking advantage of tree trunks works well for me.) As you're running and dodging, lob as many arrows as you can into the beastie's snout. Fair warning: you're going to get bit. But a dozen or so arrows later, the tables will turn, and the Carno will attempt to make a run for it. At this point, just trail behind and wait for them to drop. Voila! Either dispatch or domesticate the fallen fiend. I don't know how many I've ended in this fashion, but enough to have faith in the functionality. The highest level Carno that I've taken out with this sprint-and-shoot method was only about a 30, however. Of course, this'll become redundant once you become powerful enough to take one head-on.
Get on a raft and kite him in the water. He swims almost as good as a rock.
I’m a new player and i have a house on the beach with a parasaur (playing for 3-4 days) and this thing comes and kills her and then stays there for so long i was just hiding in my house not doing anything lmao im too scared xD
This creature is often overlooked as people who want power Tame Rexes and people who want speed tame allos
this creature is probably the cave mount anyone could ask for: it’s fits in to 6/7 cave (exception cave of the sky lord) and is powerful enough to take every creature in that cave. (Not true for the ice cave)
When I first encountered a carno I had a lucky escape.it attacked from behind and sent me flying and I did not know what hit me but I ran until I fell of a cliff the carno followed and got stuck so get them stuck.
Here's an easy way to tame early on: Hunt raptors, they can drop tranq arrows. Get the bow engram(lvl 10). Tame a parasuar (they have decent health). Ride the parasuar, and knock out the carno. Make sure you can keep it knocked out. It does take forever to tame them.
You will need 24 stone door frames or 16 I was building a rex trap until I realized it was to small, 4 stone foundation 6 wooden ramps or 4, 20-30 narcotics, Tranq arrows or darts, a flying creature to ride and then lead it into the trap. Feed it meat or kibble and bam u have yourself a carno.
When you encounter a wild Carnotaurus in or near a forest, walk towards him, so that he is between you and the trees. He will go away from you to attack you with his charge run attack. By doing so he has a high chance of getting stuck between the trees. Now you can knock him out savely. But remember to chop down the trees when he is knocked out, because when he is tamed he will start running and bugging when the trees are still there.
If ur on mobile this is the easiest cave Dino for me. My carno gives me hunter artifact to turn into soothing balm for gigas
Congratulations! The post about Bruce Wayne has hit 3000 likes, one of them being mine.
Swamp 😀
When you have tamed it level up it's health and keep it away from fire, to revive it it cost 10 amber
Use a few reinforced dinosaur gateways. Place them like this (top view)
|_| lead the carno into them and place a fourth, trapping the carno in a box shape. Knock out and feed. Hope this helped you!
Just climb a cliff and u will be safe just like me, or also shoot it with a bow or any ranged weapon and kill it, I level up by killing a carno
When I saw a raptor, I mounted my carnotourus to kill it, but 6 more raptors came. The raptors killed me and my carnotourus.
Pretty reliable mount in early game. To kill at low level get the high ground, to tame either attack from up high or lock in a taming box. A few tranq arrows and its down.
Never, EVER try to tame a pack of carnos following a yuty.
