Utility Tips

What is a carnotaurus used for? carnotaurus utility tips and strategies in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
Helpfull words here, (last tip I made was in raptor)
And I'm here to tell you why carnos are one of the best mid to late game tames. Why? Let's find out.
Mid game : carnos.... well there good and I mean really good. Left click attack is a bite that last for 2 seconds and right click attack is a horn ability that uses its horn/head to hit a target. Right click ability has bleed and good push back. I recommend spamming the right click ability as the bleed helps a lot. Carnos mid game and late game are great defenders of bases due to there melea,hp, and speed. Recommended level ups are hp , melee, weight, stamina and like 5 into speed. 30 into melee 30 into hp 10 into weight 10 into stamina and 8 into speed. (RECOMMENDED BY ME)
Late game : ok carnos in late game are really good. Like mid game, perfect gaurds for late game. Mix carnos and raptors with gaurds and you got a deadly mix. Easily takes out rexes and spinos 10 carnos 10 raptors 20 carnos can take on mid to maybe high lvl alpha rexes. Just make sure if your riding one. Don't go in the water as there the same speed as raptors in water.
Extra stuff : (pvp stuff is in the top in mid game) yes there is alpha carnos (they are red whitish and have a orange glow) much stronger than normal carnos and can not be Tamable. As though there stronger than alpha raptors there not stronger than alpha rexes in this case.
Thank you for reading this... name suggestion : Toast (The gaming beaver) (male) I'll work on a female name.
I have a level 92 carno and it is my GO TO mount when I need to go on a hide run. The funny thing is it is not even a level 100 and yet it wrecks brontos and pretty much everything else in the general area. Try to get a carno as soon as you can because if you put in the time to level them up they are a force to be reckoned with.
Fast and manuverable, these hardy soldiers are great for clearing out those pesky dinosaurs loitering around your land. With a decent health pool and damage, these guys can help with cleaning up your land from dinos. Be careful, though! Carnos can only do so much by themselves. Giving them help in any way makes them really effective! They are also adept at gathering prime meat, so they are great hunters overall!
A really funny thing you can do with alpha carnos is to get a rhynio, lure an alpha carno to the beach, and get it to swim after you in the ocean. If it loses interest and becomes passive, then get close to it and dismount on your rhynio and it should start swimming after you again. Then when it gets too close you can fly some distance away, dismount, and it will start chasing you again. Do this a few dozen times and you can trick the alpha carno into swimming to herbivore island or any other crazy location since alphas can't drown.
You can also leave the alpha carno at sea then fly away from it until it disappears in your render distance and forget about it since it will never despawn, drown, or even move so you can go to it later to kill it.
This process takes 33% longer than with an alpha rex or raptor, since alpha carnos swim 33% slower than alpha rexes or raptors.
A really funny thing you can do with alpha carnoes is to lure one to a bronto using a mount, make it deal like a few hundred damage to it, then either fly or outrun the alpha carno and get some popcorn as you watch the bronto try to attack the alpha carno while the alpha carno is minding its own business wandering or killing another dino. The more damage the bronto takes the longer it will attempt to attack the alpha carno.
This happens because carnos don't attack brontos, and wild brontos can't damage alpha carnos.
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.
