Tips & Strategies
I was scared to shoot these things with tranq arrows and tame it but I shot it and knocked it out
It died due to drowning, lesson learned never knock a carno in the middle of a lake
Steps to tame:
1.get somewhere high
2.start attacking it with bow/crossbow tranq arrow/arrow
3.when it runs away follow it but lead away from any deep mass of water
4.shoot it while your running
5.when it’s knocked out feed it normal meat/prime.narcotics shouldn’t be necessary.
You now have a carno!
I'm my opinion carnos are super good at being guard dogs and as a transport mount thier long range attack and the knock back on the head but move is super good at killing alpha raptor you should pump a level 1 with 10 levels
4 to health
2 to weight
3 to stamina
1 to movement speed
run into shallow water that you can walk in and go prone and the carno will lose agro this works for terror birds to.
A quick tip some times the dino ai in this game act dumb so sometimes they get stuck on rocks or trees if this happens knock the carno out and feed it raw meat however make sure you stay near it cuz I left before and i came back to a dead carno ;(
I swear when I just spawn in the game IT LITERALLY spawn next me I ran and it’s so fast I couldn’t even out ran it it was very scary
Carnos are a good start for tames that deal good damage. If your a high enough level and see a whole pack of these, not a big deal, mow it down but if you even see a glimpse of a alpha carno.. please run. I brought my lvl 14 Rex and two carnos to carno island to get obsidian and we all got absolutely destroyed..
RIP - Heisenberg (the rex)
RIP - Cornelius
RIP - a random unnamed carno.
Dont be scared, just pelt it with tranqs while standing on a tall cliff, these guys just look frightening
OH and a thing you should know is these guys have have eagle ahh eyes so watch out while grinding with these mfs near.
I knocked it out with a club, just because. I do not recommend. But now I have a carno named Apex.
Quick tip for new/replaying people, TAME A CARBONEMYS. They are super easy to find, very easy to get food for, easy to tranq, only kinda hard thing is getting a saddle for them. But if you get past that bit, you get a early game tank that can solo raptor packs. Now for the tip on the carnotauurus, get two carbonemys,(or one high hp one) and shoot tranq arrows at it while mounted on one. Put one of them on neutral, and let it attack the carno to distract it, and just shoot it over and over. Don’t get off the mount though, or else you die. If you got only one, you might just be fine shooting it while mounted if it’s got 3500+hp
I knocked one out but it’s not showing anything like taming rise stats, is it a glitch or is my player level too low ( I’m Lv 72 rn) any help would be greatly appreciated:))
Word to the wise. When raising a baby Carno, remember they require more meat than baby Raptors. I lost a level 150 Carno while I was sleep lol
Aladar ain't gonna help you this time buddy. Be safe, bring a friend-as a distraction, of course.
Don’t be scared of this little man.
I had a pack of level 10 raptors I just had gotten and we easily beat a level 2 Carno. Not only that but these dudes are such scaredy cats. You hit them a bit and they run as fast as possible when they are low.
Up so the noobs won’t be scared
There is both a alpha carno and a alpha raptor near my fjordur base, and I tried to kill them but they killed me and I can’t get it back
I had one named stubs she was great until a therizino threw her off the red obelisk platform then megs finished her off R.I.P ;(
