First of there should be tek carnos that drop tek horns and second of all i f*cked one up with a longneck from probabaly a hundred yards on my stego.

Once I was in the swamp on half health, hide armour and a simple longneck rifle and simple handgun. One or two shots with the rifle and a round of pistol bullets and it was dead. That’s how I and you can survive a carno encounter.

You also have to be LVL30 or over

They make good companions to a rex- anything too small and agile for the rex to hit can be covered by the carno.

Don't fight it instantly Go build a trap from door frames and 2 Ramps Then Lead the crano there and There you go You got a carno

Great for hunting; use two mate boosted Carnos + Two allosaurs for an all around good team.

They have a great way of football charging enemies, giving you an easy shot to the head.

Had a starring role in Disneys Dinosaur!

Just have 130% movement speed and you can run circles around the carno

Would rather tame one then get eaten by one

I was playing on island with a friend and we found a good level Carno near are base. So after I spotted It I “fashionably” tamed the carno and gave it to my friend as a birthday present. It was an easy tame, easy enough I’d say it could even be an early game tame in my opinion. I regret nothing. Other than how I forgot my low level Parasur the side of a cliff and it got killed by a raptor 😢 while I was taming the Carno

One up equals one happy b-day wish and love for my fallen Parasur, monke junior.

Alpha Carno? Fear not, use Dimophons(yes, a Flock of them, somewhere between 4-8) Craft a spyglass and target then get yourself a seat and enjoy.

The Redwoods on the Center is the best place to find high level Carnos. Most of them are in the upper 90s, with the exception of a few level 45s.

Carlos are really great all around if you can get past their horrendous stamina recovery

Carnos can stuck between trees like Trikes. I was lucky I got a Carno Lvl 60 at Hidden Island between a couple of trees. 10 tranq shots later she (a female Carno) was mine 😊

Step1.be far from the carno or on a cliff (HE IS SO FAST)

Step2.get bow(LVL10)with at least 18 tranq arrows(BUT THEY HAVE TO BE HEDSHOTS) or get more tranq arrow

Step3.shoot at him from a unclimbed place or get the trap

Step4.cry with happiness cuase you finally tamed him

To tame these tiny armed Dino you should make a trap 4/6 fountains 2 thick 2 door frames high door frames because most Dino’s can’t fit in them but you can escape from all around and 4 wooden ramps so the carno can get in then you make the trap you can use wood but I would recommend stone carnos can’t brake stone and 2 cross bows or 4 bows and lots of nars especially if your on official normal u should be fine so how the taming goes so get your trap ready so shoot it with cross bow far away form it because it’s faster then you so when it about to hit you jump in to the trap when the carno is in get out and start nocking it out hope this was helpful for you all

I JUST TAMED A DIPLODOCUS AND A STUPID ALPHA CARNO COMES AND KILLS MY DIPLODOCUS AND MY BEST SARCO AND MY BEST TRIKE So I declare war on carnos

Such a good early game carnivore

This Dino was a lvl 3 and one shotted me. Took all my clothes and half my health

14 points   🥚 Taming & KO   Jun 19, 2022   Report

If you want to tame a carno prefer using a crossbow and tanq arrows if your gonna take a high lvl one then your gonna need like 10-15 tanq arrows but they can get down pretty fast on lvl 1 cause you need only 2 tanq arrows and a cross bow/up so starters can see

EZ Trap-less Taming Method

⚠️Do not attempt this if the Carno is in a pack!⚠️

Ride a raptor with your taming weapon of choice, preferably a bow + tranq arrows or better. As long as your raptor isn’t encumbered you can out run the Carno! I suggest pumping some movement speed points in your raptor but this is not necessary (I didn’t). Shoot the Carno with your tranqs and chase it once it flees. They’ll be knocked out and then you’re free to tame it! I did this on a lvl. 55 female Carno and it worked (I named her Éclair).

Here is a hint if noobs haven’t seen one the steps of it is like the pachy but bigger so run until you run into a brontosaurus use it as a dinosaur protector and then it will die boom done
