Taming a carno is easy but knocking it out is very hard because it runs away fast when it is about to get knocked out. Best strat is to make a taming pen 2x2 stone platforms surrounded by stone door frames(2 walls high) and wooden ramps.

I used this way on Tanya the carno

Having a pack of Dilos is a good way to combat one early on: they can slow it down with their spit attack, they can be generally hard for it to consistently hit, and carnos focus more on dinos than humans so if you get ambushed chances are it might change focus to your dilos. It can be possible to kill a carno with just 2 dilos if they can take a hit and you provide cover fire with any ranged option.

These guys are not good swimmers lol. My first carno named Ravager (yeah, like the Aberration dog) drowned when I lead my creatures up a cliff in Ragnarok. He couldn’t find the way up, so he ran into a small lake, ran out of stamina, and drowned. RIP Ravager, too stupid to survive.

Wanted to write this for a year but never got around to it. While riding your carno, you are still prone to getting knocked off it by a wild Raptors pounce attack. Not sure how it's possible, but I found out the hard way.

so one time i was in my house and i was crafting a behemoth dino gateway and i hear battle music play i look outside my house and dead carno my dinos killed it in less than 2 seconds

Now, your probably wondering what do I do to tame a Carno?

1. Make some tranq arrows, about four

2. Find the Carno of course

3. Shoot it on the neck bit but you can on the body

4. This gets tricky, you can feed it raw meat but if it’s over the level of 2, you need prime meat otherwise it will wake up before you can tame it, or just keep feeding it narco berries so it stays unconscious

5. This Carno is your sworn protecter, keep it away from stronger creatures just in case it gets killed

Now you can go get a Carno!

Use a pike to kill it Anyways pike

Pretty good beginner dino, tamed a level 1 one just now-took 1 traq arrow from a cross bow to knock, 5 regular raw meat to tame, and I didn't even get hurt in the process. As well as doing a sufficient amount of damage to protect you, it has an ability to knock creatures back with its horns.

Hey fellow ark players! You want one of these monsters?

Hide-staking meat-hoarding carno? I

My method is quite risky for up to one and either keep tranqing it or just hit it with a bat! When it's knocked out feed it prime meat,or regular meat, etc and wait! Make sure you get that thing a saddle and then you have yourself a killing machine, enjoy!

Large bear traps are the most under used thing in the game. Get like 7 or 8 of the large variety and when you see a carno put one down between you and it, agro it, shoot transfer and rinse and repeat till he's down.

So i was walking down the shore line near my cabin looking for a dilo (i was planning on taming one), when out of nowhere, a carno comes running at me. I immediately stopped what i was doing and made a break for my cabin. I quickly ran inside and shut the door. What i didnt know at the time was that carnos can damage wood (what my cabin was made out of). Therefore it smashed through my wall, killed my dodo, and then killed me (ouch 😑) Up = rip for odin (my dodo), and/or my wall

Great first carnivore tame. Pretty easy to knock out, strong, fast, and has a saddle that is fairly easy to make. Definitely recommend.

How to tame a Carnotaurus by the Dodotamer 🦤

Step 1:Make a bow or crossbow(if possible).

Step 2:Get around 30-20 tranq arrows.Those are more than enough but make sure to bring more in case you miss.

Step 3:(OPTIONAL)Make a 2x2 stone foundations,16

stone doorways and 4 stone ramps.Put the foundations AFTER you found your Carno.Then place the doorways around the foundations.After that put the ramps to the side which you want your Carno to get trapped.

Step 4:How to find a Carno

-Look around the west zone 3

-Look around near redwoods

-Never go near Carnos if there is a Yuty nearby in the snowy biome.

Step 5:Put your trap somewhere which the Carno can’t aggro.Trap the Carno,then tranquillize it.

Step 6:Find meat (prime meat If possible)

You won’t be needing narcotics if you use prime meat.

If it successfully tamed,name it.

Step 7: Profit

I hope it would be helpful

You cannot wield a weapon while riding them

I just got it stuck and shot it in the face with tranqs ✌️👏🏽

A good level Carno will be able to get a good amount of prime meat.

Can kill rock golems with its bleed debuff

Just so people know Carnos can kill you off horses it happened to me on official

Large bear traps and tranq arrows work great!

Carnos are a good mount. They can be found alone, or in a Yuty Pack. I recommend taming one that is alone. They have an attack that will cause a bleed effect to anyone you hit.
