Player-written tips for taming, using, and fighting the Carnotaurus in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.

I personally have tamed them in mass amounts using a ballista turret on a raft made just for taming, and have someone gun it down with tranqs.

low level Carnos are very easy to knockout with tranq darts from the longneck rifle. aim for the head. you can shoot from a distance by time they reach you you hope they are knocked out. if not run for the hills.

Took a level 42 carno down within 3seconds with 2 narc arrows! Highly recommend a good distance as very quick. Not to be underestimated !

Even when I was level 14 I managed to knock this out with a bow from the side of a cliff, then I could easily kill it. It gave me a ton of Xp and it was pretty easy

Tried to outrun it it killed my tame tried to put it in the water i forgot i put my other tame on follow now i have no tames carno’s = death

I found a phiomia with my trike then in the middle of taming the phiomia a Carno came out of no where and killed my trike and the phiomia (never go in the jungle by ur self,because…that’s just suicide) they both died so I went to a small island and made them grave stones😢

If you want to avoid Caron’s just don’t go in to the deep jungle area and if you want a crank go in to the jungle but rennet Caron’s can team up with raptors.

To tame one get 1 stone gateway 6 stone foundation 16 stone doorways and 1 stone gateway door. Put the 6 foundation's like □□

□□

□□

Then put 8…

Pick it with your skiff, drop it in a stone box. Knock out at your leisure and use regular kibble. Only tame two, get good levels opposite gender and breed from there on out, unless an event gives good colours then get a low level colourful one to introduce into your breeding…

Very easy to find a high level one on "the island map". Go to the island in the upper right corner of the map, its known as carno island, but I call it carnivor island cause theres more than carnos there. You can find Raptors, alpha raptors, scorpions, carnos, arges…

EZ tame. Take crossbow with tranquilizer arrows. Equip Flak Armor. Go to Carnotaurus of your choice. Get on ground with it. Let it smack you while you tranquilize it. After knockout, place narcotics in inventory with raw meat/raw prime. Tame Carnotaurus. Bring home.

If you just knock it out with a tranq dart and give it meat it will take like two seconds to tame with smoothing balm but if it’s above 20 you might want to get something they like better then meat like a type of kibble

On MOBILE-

Great creature to have in any point of the game, I tamed a level 100, I think it got to like 120 after the tame, and I leveled it up to 4000 hp, 400-500% attack, and 800 weight, I took on a level 80 alpha raptor, now I'm just looking for a higher level mate for…

After dlc, they got better but way scaryer, with there main attack degenerating armor and there second doing that bleed, a trap is heavily advised

You don’t need taming pens to tame a carno. Just make some big bear traps and shoot it with tranq arrows. When it runs away just shoot some more arrows while making sure not to kill it and it will get knocked out. Then feed it regular meat and have some narcotics ready

Try and get a pteranodon and use it to get far away then load it up with tramways while it’s coming to you by the time it gets to your you’ll have 3-4 arrows and it will start to run when it does you know your close good luck
