YOU HAVE TORO AS A TAME!! Pls like
run into shallow water that you can walk in and go prone and the carno will lose agro this works for terror birds to.
I encountered a Alpha and the last thing I knew I was a bag.
It says that they don’t fit through double doorways but they can and I kinda found that out the hard way
Aladar ain't gonna help you this time buddy. Be safe, bring a friend-as a distraction, of course.
After the TLC, Carnotaurus has become not only a more powerful mount but also a very dangerous encounter especially with their Yutyrannus leaders. The secondary attack causes a nasty bleed effect that drains the targets' health significantly. This paired with the significant knockback can easily kill many creatures with high health pools such as brontos and stegos. A fully imprinted, mate-boosted and mutated pack of carnos are a force to be reckoned with and can even take out Alpha Rexes.
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 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
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
If you have a flyer get on a rock the carno can't reach or on multiplayer get a friend and a flyer and grab your friend and let him/she shoot the carno with anything that has torpor
A low level carno is actually easy to knock out I shot a lvl 10 3 times with my crossbow and boom, it was out I knocked out a lvl 90 with a crossbow and a longneck rifle. PROTECT THE NOOBS!
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
Rookie taming method (worked first time):
1. Craft a larg bear trap (and about 15 tranq arrows)
2. Find a carno out In the open and easy to see/fire at
3.get carno to aggro on you (somehow) and walk into the trap
4. Tranq it quickly before it breaks out
5. Tame!!!
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
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
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
