What are tips for carnotaurus? Tips and strategies for carnotaurus in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
Large bear traps and tranq arrows work great!
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
It was actually really easy to tame! The one I tamed was distracted by a little dino and I shot him with narcotic arrows 4 times I believe and not even a stack of normal meat (I didn't use prime) and it took awhile, I gave mine a few narcotic 5-7 I believe hope this helps!
How to tame them in the Easiest way! (Trap needed)
What do we need?
1. Meat (prime meat and kibble are the best I think)
2. Fast dino you can ride on.
3. Tranquilizer arrows NOT STONE ARROWS! (btw I use crossbow)
Tip: if you have spyglass, look at their level, than you will see how much arrows you need.
How to tame them!
1. Lead them to the trap with the dino.
2. Knock them out with the arrows.
3. Put meat in their inventory.
Boom! You have a carno! Good luck and enjoy! ☆☆
Tip: create a saddle for them, they are pretty fast and strong.
When I get on the game I walk along the beach and there’s this carnotaurus just chilling killing a turtle I look at the health, the thing has 3,400 Health with a matting boost, save me pls
I have two. One called Toast and one called Waffle. FABULOUS!
How to tame early on:
Find one and stalk it from a good distance and wait for it to attack something with a good sized health pool such as a stego and while they're fighting pelt it with tranq arrows, it will probably kill the other dino then start to run away, keep up with it and keep hitting it until it's knocked out
Just have 130% movement speed and you can run circles around the carno
Use high level trike to kill alpha or normal carno by its knockback
The first time I tamed one I just stood there and walled hits till it was knocked out
One is at my base and spawn camping me😖😭🤬🤕
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
I saw on of those beasts on mobile it was lvl30 that could've been a big win but when I was hitting him I I accidentally hit an iguanadon so it killed me and tried to kill hull my turtle so I told him to attack the iguanadon only but hull ended up killing the carno by accident and till that day I swore to destroy every iguanadon in ark
I cheated out on taming the old fashioned way. I know it doesn’t always yield the greatest results but I saw a mammoth kill the mother and seen a juvenile and imprinted it then took it to my base and fed her until she was full grown. Easiest way to get a tame done but won’t always yield the stronger Dino.
Tame a female scorpion in a cave then if you hit the carno fast enough it doesn’t aggro on you and it’s a free tame!
