What are tips for carnotaurus? Tips and strategies for carnotaurus in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
Once it was my first time playing and I saw a carno I ran up to it and punched him, he attacked back I kept punching, i died, i went back I punched more, i died, this happened around 90 more times, then it ran i punched one more time and it passed out in the ocean then I raged cuz it died.
Find a rock near it go on you can knock it out mostly with everything but that’s not a baseball bat it if is a low lvl it’s ez to tame but if it’s a high lvl is goin be medium. But I buffer if your a low lvl just let it walk with ya until you can get the saddle don’t need to tame it when you can get the saddle
First time I tamed I was taming a pachy and I go to get narcos I come back and this thing is ravaging my pachy so I start hitting it with a club then it falls unconscious so I put meat from pachy and bam I got a Red Bull dino
I found an alpha and it had 102,000 hp soooo it didn’t go well for me
Whoever said these don't agro on insect , DONT Believe IT It's all propoganda and lies , I very much got my ass handed to me when i tried to approach a carno on my Scorp , I was fortunate enough to tranq the carno before it killed my venomous buddy, Whenever these guys are around approach with Caution or get Horned
While it can be overshadowed by more useful alternatives (argentavis) or stronger predators (Rex, Spino, etc), it is a very accessible tame early on if you need something to protect yourself and run around with (looking at you Aberration). Even with a bow, you don’t really need that many tranq arrows and it can, at high levels, shred everything you encounter, except maybe other tamed dinos or gigas (Would not recommend for bosses either), which helped me commit genocidal war crimes at the spino river in Aberration to level up fast.
I had a small outpost for a bass and I got the attention of a Carno and just played ring around the rosei, my advice keep something between u and bata Rex
how to find a carnotaurus you may be wondering, but my friend calm down they are easy to find they are in open spaces at least on the island you can find them like this
how to tame a carnotaurus in ark:
step 1: have a structure trap for medium dinos
step 2: have a crosbow and tranquilizer arrows
step 3: find a carnotaurus and trap it in the structure trap and shoot it
and so you get a carnotaurus
A female one attacked our damn Jeep whilst we were searching for gallimimus there
Find yourself a rock thats hard to get on and hope that he doesn't knock you off i tamed mine with a crossbow and tranq arrows, really good base defense and overall tame
It is actually easy to kill just tame some dilos and wait for it to attack a big turtle then shoot it with a bow (keep the dilos on passive while shooting)
Fly up to a cliff or ledge that it can’t reach and use tranq darts. Tranq arrows will work too it will just take longer
Carnos are excellent mounts and hunting and battle companions. At mid-level, my pack of five have speed slightly superior to a raptor and strength comparable to a low level Rex. Focus on building melee, speed and stamina. Combine them with a couple raptors, a Rex and a Trike and there will be very little you can't overcome.
If u see one RUN for Ur life. If I try to tame one please don't u WILL die.
How to tame carno
1 prepare
Bow
Tranq arrows (i would recommend bringing at least 20)
a trap (trap not needed if speed 200+)
2 locate
Carnos are easy to find i would recommend looking on beaches cuz on beaches there aren't many other threats
3 Tame
Shoot tranqs and lead into trap (or just run away from it) and keep shooting until unconscious
4 enjoy your carno
Thx for reading! If you liked it you know what to do!
Also with the carno situation there are 3 long neck things near my base should I run back?
I fought a high level alpha carno my argen couldn't kill it so I got my lv. 151 thylaceo(thyla) to help me and she easily killed the alpha
