Tips & Strategies

What are tips for equus? Tips and strategies for equus in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
Iguanodon is easier to tame and better in pretty much every category
When you tame a equus with berries its dies instandly !
Two things:
1.) Taming may go down when you start, that's because it is starving. DO NOT feed it again unless prompted to.
2.) Having a tame follow on neutral helps a lot, but be careful, taming will reset if hit whilst your tame defends.
Do not let anyone from UN Park Rangers near them. They kill on site to make their jello
I went looking for some and the first I found was a freaking lvl 8 unicorn and I didn't know how to tame it at the time, I tried saving it from a raptor and ended up killing it! I hate raptors now!
I tamed this beast and went jousting... that's all I got
While walking through the desert on my nameless equus it felt good to be out of the rain.
WILBER I DONT KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT ANY APPLE PIE!
I've been through the desert on an equus with no name..
Today I tamed an Equus. Lvl 435 on Ark mobile, in the wild, with 100% efficiency using soothing balm and Rockaroots (DO NOT MOUNT ON MOBILE, I will explain why later in the text) + 1 dilo kibble.
I got lvl 652 (+217 levels), and I must say - this is a great begginer>middle game mount. It's buck kick gives a lot of torphor (mine has 835% melee, up it to get even more torphor per hit), swipe up for a special attack (buck kick).
It can jump pretty high, doesn't take fall damage (Tested it above western southern cave, a.k.a - the lava cave - and it didn't take any damage with 145 armor saddle gotten from the pursuit).
So - why shouldn't you mount Equus while taming on Ark mobile?
1. It lowers efficiency. Taming using soothing balm doesn't work either, the effect gets lost.
6.4% per rockaroot unmounted, 2.4% mounted with efficiency falling by 20% each time.
2. You will need a LOT of rockaroots.
3. Soothing balm won't help in maintaining efficiency rate.
In conclusion, Equus are very hard to tame on mobile (if you want a perfect, high level tame like I wanted), but with patience and a lot of crouching behind its back to feed it, you will get an interesting mount that also acts like mortar and pestle.
While I was submitting that tip I was taming a equus to pass the time Lol. Also sorry it was so long.

Is there another app? This one is wrong by far again on gestation times and much more. I gues this guy just doesn't care anymore nor maintains this app, it's time it gets removed from use in our communities as we move foward to new Ark.
When the winged hussars arrived
A cry for help in time of need, await relief from holy league
60 days of siege, outnumbered and weak
Sent a message to the sky, wounded soldiers left to die
Will they hold the wall or will the city fall
Dedication
Dedication
They're outnumbered 15 to one
And the battle's begun
Then the winged hussars arrived
Coming down the mountainside
Then the winged hussars arrived
Coming down they turned the tide
As the days are passing by and as the dead are piling high
No escape and no salvation
Trenches to explosive halls are buried deep beneath the walls
Plant the charges there and watch the city fear
Desperation
Desperation
It's a desperate race against the mine
And a race against time
Then the winged hussars arrived
Coming down the mountainside
Then the winged hussars arrived
Coming down they turned the tide
Cannonballs are coming down from the sky
Janissaries are you ready to die?
We will seek our vengeance eye for an eye
You'll be stopped upon the steps of our gate
On this field you're only facing our hate
But back home the sultan's sealing your fate
We remember
In September
That's the night Vienna was freed
We made the enemy bleed!
Storm clouds, fire and steel
Death from above make their enemy kneel
Funnest taming process in the game
you can get a noctis
noctis is a unicorn but its on fire
TAMING STEP BY STEP:
1. Get your carbemynous( did I spell that right? ) and look for rocarrots(eat jungle ferns)
2. Once you have at least 30, go to south zone 3.
3. Look for the cliff and walk along it.
4. Once you see the lake thing, look for an equus.
5. Once found, look out for dilos, rexs, and theziosaurs.
6. Tame.
Ps: Can be ridden without saddle.
