Taming & KO Tips

How do I tame a ceratosaurus? Tips and strategies on taming and knocking out a ceratosaurus.
It takes 10 extraordinary kibbles in official x2 for lv 150,
probably 20 in x1
Very easy tame just search for One with a baby kill the adult and imprint the baby!
Just a little tip, it’s a lot easier to just claim the babies
As far as I see it, you should use a high grade tame to farm the spines, about 100 spines should suffice for a 150, then make 10 cocktails. Once you find your cerato, use that same high grade tame, about maybe 5500 HP or more, and force feed the tame cocktails until the cerato becomes drunk while attacking it, then it becomes a passive tame.
Are these bugged? was getting bit by one once I ate the cocktail and they weren’t getting drunk
Took about 4 hemoglobin to get it 100% it should only take 3 but it’s a bit glitchy. 20 extraordinary kibble for a 145 on an official server. Had to get it drunk twice.
Counter feed meat against its damage! Makes a big difference
Haven’t finished raising yet but on small tribes they have the same incubation time as wyvern eggs, seems like they may be the nee and improved Rex 😂
For finding these on official, I have accidentally stumbled upon a load of them in scorched earth as well, to the mountain ranges in the west by the wyvern trench. 34lat, 25lon. Gather those spines up, take a rhynio if you can and hemoglobin that sucker while you carry it to your pen. Happy hunting.
Most of them you'll find next to volcano by the river and carno Island. You can use a stego to tame them just make sure the health is over 20k, at best 30k so that you don't die from it. It took about 5 to 6 of the hemoboglin to get it drunk 100% for a 150. Make sure to be facing this dino so that it can start getting drunk.
The Cerato Venom Spine can also be dropped by the wild baby. So kill them as well.
Just finished taming on on official, a racer works well, or a stego, and bring 3-4 of the brews if you’re doing anything above 130 2 ran out too quickly and the cerato resets it’s drunk was quickly (just feed it to your Dino like a pheromone and let the cerato attack, once it’s 100% hop off and feed kibble)
Ok so use 8 coctail and 19 kibble
Fastest way to tame. Pick up with bug while bug armor is active. Use the elixir on bug. The dino will attack bug really fast and never miss a hit have a tribemember nearby to heal with daedon or or use a high hp bug 12k hp and capped saddle. You will use 2 to 3 elixers on a 150. Once drunk drop on the ground in a trap and feed it kibble.
You should say if you need to knock them out or if you need to keep them alive and follow them until they are tamed.
If your using ark additions on evolved, on x4 taming it takes 3 regular kibble. (For noobs: that’s the dark blue one)
Level 40 female ceratosaurus took 2 hemoglobin cocktails and 4 extraordinary kibbles
Make sure you have levels up or you well get a 40 as max wild it happened to me. Use the hobgoblin cocktail get a tanky Dino like a sarco let the crato do damage to the creature to get it drunk then fed it kibble
If u are on ASA just look for one with a baby and tame the baby
This thing is a beast best way to tame is just kill a low lvl parent and steal the baby but u really can’t find low lvl
I am the one who made the gigantoraptor tip to get a maximum of a 227 cerato tame from the baby
I have seen some comments saying not to imprint on the wild baby and that you probably wont get high level babies or event colour babies. I would like to confirm my comment states an easier way to tame a high level as long as it has a baby, not that this is how you should tame then every time, dont go out of your way to find a max level baby, if you find a max level without a baby I recommend to just tame it normally
My comment was completely situational so dont waste your time doing this until you find a max level baby
