Tips & Strategies

What are tips for equus? Tips and strategies for equus in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
URGENT NOTE FOR SWITCH PLAYERS!!! As you tame your horse and are trying to tame it, remember that the dismount button AND the use button are BOTH mapped to the X button! When the equus is attempting to buck you off, only press the X button ONCE, any more will result in you voluntarily dismounting the horse! (It took me two days to figure this out and at least 5 dead horses ;-; )
Tame a scropion animals are not aggro on mobile toward you if you attack them or are riding by, but I would still try to steer clear of the bigger carnivores. You might as well get the lowest lev one since it doesn’t make a difference since theses things have unlimited stamina and then about 30 carrots, I tamed mine on level 1, and the quest gives you a saddle for free, so don’t get the enagram.-snail lover
Use track darts or get carrots and then trap them and then u can tame them also be sure you find one before getting carrots the carrots will decompose*up if this helps*
I got my first one at level 68. They always bucked me off even if I fed them dilo kibble and ran away so I trapped one in my work in progress creature pen and he could not run away! Now I have a equus and I named him “Took Too Long”
Get some carrots. Ride it. Then tame it.
Pick it with an argy or anything bigger (yes argies can pick them up even though it says they cant) drop it in a taming pin and then mount it. Alot easier then running crazy
Was kinda easy I built a pen (4 foundation + 8 door frames)
Used my argy to pick it up n dropped in pen I used rockcarrot in tame slot and boom I had one
Up for other to see
I saw a unicorn once next to my base and 3 raptors hanged up on he poor thing damn raptors
Before you tame one of these you should get crops or carrots so you’re ready to tame it and so that you can get it on the first try
Not a tip but could someone tell me where they spawn. I recently lost all my progress (lvl 80)
When taming do not dismount for any reason on ark mobile. I accidentally tapped dismount when taming my second equus and the taming affectedness dropped from 100% to 80%. Also was using rock carrots.
So on mobile go to herbivore island there should be a way to get too the normal part of the map by a indent on the land, there is a swamp beside it and you will find 3-6 equus and also I would bring 30 rockcaroots for a level 4 equus because it is actually pretty hard and they spoil easily
They're all over the white cliffs biome in valguero just be careful of allos when searching for one.
Found a Unicorn between grass and ice biomie Soothing Balm it and Tamed with Griff kibble
Ride on its back, if it bucks u off, soothe it with a rockarrot
These are great tames, and great for knocking out other Dino's. I recommend to tame with bola. After you bola the Equus build a wall surrounding it with Dino gateways. Then once its trapped you can wait for it to stop running then feed to tame!
Ok so always wear a ghillie suit when taming!
