What are tips for equus? Tips and strategies for equus in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
These guys are pretty annoying to tame but if using rockcarrot they are pretty much as good as your. P.S. get a farm early on and get you one of these NOW
Would really recommend using the carrots! It tames it much faster and oof i have lost about 6 unicorns because i got kick off and it ran away then died, dont be like me and just get it over with lol
I recommend rockarrot for taming them it tames faster
On the ps4 you have to hold down triangle win it tells you to in the bottom right side hopefully this helps
I discovered it’s easier to tame a archy first then go find a equus, pick it up and take it back to a pen. That sounds dumb I know but it’s a guarantee tame success. The amount of times I have had them get eaten or run off a cliff drove me to this solution.
To tame a horse I would use a bird that can pick it up and take it to a pen where you could take it. And if you wanna use berry I would take 300 for a 145 to the lowest. I hoped I helped Somone that wanted a horse
I have a level 200+ with 300% melee and it can easily knock out a lot of creatures, including carnos, troodons and scorpions, but is still relatively easy for a level 50+ with 150% melee. Plus, their stamina is excellent if fleeing(with no bucking). So for this reason Equus are brilliant for early-mid game travel and taming. HOWEVER watch out for raptors with their new pin attack, spiders and other trapping creatures. To escape you must repeatedly jump. And finally IN ATTACK WATCH YOUR STAM BRUTHA
A pen does help taming Equus and can keep them from running into unsafe areas while you do, but you need to give them time in the game to calm down from being either dropped by a flyer or pulled by a lasso into the pen.
Once the Equus is in the pen leave it alone for an in-game day. Keep your tames and yourself away from the pen. Once it calms down, go in and tame like you normally tame an Equus.
For the love of god don’t bother taming these things with anything except carrots or kibble, you’re wasting your time
To tame these is what I did I brought them to my base where my friend gave some balm and it tamed instantly so always use MAJOR SOOTHING BALM
Like if helpful :)
There are 2 options to tame equips:
1.kill the allo near it and ride it
2.go find another equus that is not near an allo
Option 1 is the best cause finding another one will be very hard.
They are pretty common in the western plains on the island
When taming am equus the therizinosaurus will leave you alone
The passive creatures that only attack people will leave you alone
I have learned they are not knockout tames 🙂
Don’t know if this helps but there’s unlike the others in western zone a 3.000 percent chance of finding a Eques if I spelled it right and that’s 3% if you didnt know and like a 25% chance in the island 70% in south zone The island 0.0001% in red woods hope it helped?!!!
Kill the parent, steal the babies, very humane
In ark mobile, it’s is kinda tricky to tame one of these. Here’s how:
1# Don’t mount it, just sneak up on it and feed it rocketcarrots.
2# do that’s till it’s tame!
3# enjoy your new BFF!
Don't be like me, I waited hours looking for an Equus on my island. It was pain. Even on the Equus Spawns. I checked, checked a different spawn, came back, no Equus. I recommend for mobile players, go to redwoods, on the < left side where a mountain is at. Just wait a few minutes and 3 Equuses will spawn. If all three got killed, wait 1-2 Ark Days and come back to that same moutainous spot. 3 Equuses may spawn. But be careful and make sure to wipe predators out. Rexes, and huge raptor packs have a reputation to spawn. So be careful, and If you have an argy I recommend taking the equus out of redwoods.
