How do I kill a carnotaurus? carnotaurus battling strategies in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
I'm playing mobile. My base is on the western peninsula by the red obelisk. There's a level 240 alpha carno chilling across the water from me. She has 46k health. God please save me.
If you get one aggro on you, just find the nearest dino and book it. They are kinda tarded and lose interest when other dinos are nearby.
While setting up a base, a lv 40 alpha carno came out of nowhere to fight. I watched the fight with little emotion as this game has numbed me down so much. Luckily, I only lost two pterodons. Sadly, one of them was a lv 170
Whoever said “tame a jerboa and use it as carno bait,” you are a monster.
So back when i was a new ark player i tamed 8 raptors just for defense, later on i spotted an alpha carno walking down the beach towards my base, and not wanting my newly tamed sarco, and trike to die, I did something any normal person with 8 raptors would do. Me and the pack and charged into battle, lets just say i lost all but one, Silver. Shes still alive today and happy, And we did kill the alpha carno.
My friend who is a noob was playing with me on mobile. I was helping them not die. I turn my Head for ONE second and they got killed by a carno. So, yes….. they thought it was a parasaur……how?
Me: let’s go get some fish!
Me: sees spino.
Me: oh no! Goes the other way.
Caro: zooms in from nowhere.
Me: runs.
Carno: is speed.
Diplodocus: AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA CARNO FIGHT ME INSTEAD
me: thank you massive dino.
Get a jerboa and name it carno bait, if one aggros on you, toss it and boogie
Bastards killed my christmas coloured argie. RIP Peppernint.
I encountered a Alpha and the last thing I knew I was a bag.
Aladar ain't gonna help you this time buddy. Be safe, bring a friend-as a distraction, of course.
I'm new to the game so I haven't leveled up and gotten access to op stuff but I kept getting spawn camped by one. No matter how hard I tried, a normal bow couldn't kill it before it killed me. So I decided to run between the legs of a broncho and she took care of it for me and now I have to deal with a spino
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 ;(
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
Because I’m an idiot, I forced my tribemate to help me kill an Alpha Rex I found. Well, that wasn’t a great idea. We landed on a cliff overlooking the Alpha and its turmoil, and began shooting with our crossbows. I HEAR STOMPING, OKAY, AND I TURN TO RUN TO MY PTERANODON BECAUSE I RECOGNIZE THE FOOT PATTERN—A Carnotaurus knocks us both off of the cliff and down where the Alpha is and I think you know what happened next..
I have a lot to say about these Dino’s bc they’re so great, I tried shortening it but this is helpful info so plz read...ENJOY ;)
They’re great takes all around, just upgrade its stam, they can get really OP so I suggest getting one when you can, super useful early-game through realty any game
: encountering : if u encounter a wild one don’t try to outrun it try to outsmart it, it will lose intrest and just go attack other animals, or if it doesn’t get off your tail run around a few rocks and you should be fine, but it doesn’t go after raptors so don’t try it,
They’re spawn is kinda everywhere, I find that they’re usually surrounded my raptors but it’s kinda random with these guys, they spawn is forests, swamps, snow, all sorts of places
They don’t take slow but not fast either, you don’t need a lot of narcs....like I used two but I only needed like one sooo they’re great tames
GET ONE OF THESE DINOS!!!! 4 AND A HALF STARS! Lol
Just killed a Carno with a pike by running around in circles with it #Legendary
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.
As of July 2020 it now does a bleed attack! Both tamed and wild!
Use a crossbow or a pistol and just pray that you don’t get eaten
