Tips & Strategies

What are tips for equus? Tips and strategies for equus in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
To get 97% taming bonus feed it 10×soothing balm from piranha percuit and feed it carrots while riding.it running on circle so tame one when nobad thing near otherwise if it takes damage you lost bonus percentage.
I would advise having preserving salts if you’re gonna use rockarrot so I doesn’t spoil as quickly
These guys spawn in plains which are near the swamp
Pick them up with an argy and drop them in a taming pen this will make it easier. On playstation for ASA press triangle when they start bucking to feed again. If they are not bucking pressing triangle will just dismount you.
To the person asking about the carrots on the island you have to gather seeds from the same plants you get berries and then plant them in a large crop plot. Be sure to water and fertilize!
On Ragnarok these are the best early game tames, here's why:
1. You don't need saddle to ride.
2. They are found almost anywhere with vegetables
23 They are passive tames and their fav food are carrots, and on Highlands you can find a bunch of carrot bushes.
4. They are fast and can jump pretty high.
5. They look cool.
Run run run, crouch when close still approaching at an angle, when close enough,(stack of carrots in zero slot) click three “e” three times; one to feed, one to mount, one to start THE RIDE! Each time you get the feed prompt, hit “e” and pray it gets stuck in a corner and doesn’t run off a cliff, or into carnivores. Ignore everything but the prompt, hitting “e” without hesitation. (You cannot control the run at all). That’s it.
Quick tip: don’t knock them out. That’s not how you tame them
It eats troodon kibble or rockcarrot then ride every time it is going to stop and do its animation you press 0 or right on the d pad and have rockcarrot or troodon kibble there then u have your equs. ;)
Grasslands is where they spawn. I never really wanted one, but I was looking around and I seen a white equus. Spy glassed it, popped up UNICORN. Immediately tamed😂
Do not reccomend for quick travel on mobile it it is not really that fast and raptor or parasaur are better alternatives but they are great for knocking out other creatures
For the guy who could not keep the equus in the trap, first of all, do NOT use thatch or wood. Use stone or better for the trap. Second, make sure that you put it in the trap correctly or make the trap bigger. Then make sure that it is NOT ON AGRO!!! P.s. most people are lying when they say they are knockout tame... THEY ARE NOT... THEY ARE PASSIVE! Y.w. ( your welcome)
Found the Unicorn by Green on the Island. It will be all white and look like a sheep from a distance. In general, they seem to appear in groups of two or more. Move to a safe area or have an escort to clear the area of danger when taming!
If you play without flying, this thing is a must have. Decent weight, almost no stamina consumption while sprinting, reduced fall damage and imprinted ones are really fast. The Buck Kick (L2 on PS4) is really good forknocking out creatures. And don't forget that this things saddle is a mortar and pestle, so you can grind those sweet narcotic XP while traveling. This is my go to mount.
Don't listen to the taming numbers. Bring twice the amount.
You might want to take some anti-nausea medicine before trying to tame this thing because it just runs in circles (for me at least, and on mobile). A lvl50 took like an hour of running in circles. It was very painful.
But sorta worth it because it’s a mobile mortar&pestle and now I can lasso people.
