Tips & Strategies
So iv got 3 equus now but i went though an encounter no one has mentioned. Someone was trying to tame a equus lvl 120 but they messed up a few times and didnt want the equus anymore for the bonus lvls was depleted for the most part and it was taking awhile with carrots. So a friend of mine on the server and i went to go get it and tame it but it wouldnt prompt the e feed or ride. We left and came but still nothing so my idea was force tame it to tranq it. Found out crossbow does to much damage almost killed it so we waited for it to heal and used darts that worked great but took a lot of them. So be aware for ppl on pvp servers they cant steal jump on the equus if you already have the only way for them to take it is to tanq it. Need to do some more testing to see about other methods.
More Equus Taming & KO Tips
Yβall what is a lazy equus Bc I just tamed one π
They would rather jump off a cliff than be tamed by me.
Real men knock it out and feed it mejoberries
Noted: Where There Is Equus There Is Allo , Where There Is Allo There Is Tears. Ty For Reading! β₯οΈ
Best for knockouts!!! Dose lots of torpor.
Here's how you tame an equus in ark mobile:
Step 1 : Do not mount on the equus. For some reason, the ark mobile equus don't like it. It increases taming with rockarrots like 2% and not mounted taming makes it 20% ( level 15)
Step 2 : Feed it rockarrots from a safe distance. Don't let it see you. You can approach their hind legs (dont touch them) and feed rockarrots. Otherwise it runs away.
Step 3 : If it runs away, just don't follow it, just see where it is going. If it loses aggro. It will not stare at you. Then feed it again
Step 4 : A good tip is to enable the 'Tame: Equus' pursuit so you save engrams for equus saddle and get one for free.
Follow the process for mobile and bam!! You got yourself an equus
A great travelling companion on many of the Ark maps. The Equus has a unique taming method, where you must walk up to it, feed it(their preferred food is Rockarrots), and ride it. The horse will attempt to buck you off, but when it does, press the prompted button and you will stay on and increase its taming percentage. You cannot control the horse while you are riding a wild one, so be sure to clear out the area you decide to tame it in.
For mobile players I found it easy to just pick these up with an argy drop it off at a safe location or a built trap and go from there. (They will run off when dropped with argy be aware where you are they like going into the water)
