1%of life give a rock carro and tou tame its a big for tame the eqqus
What can kill them ?!!
They are mostly found in the south-east part of the island
The noctis is harder to tame than the griffin
The R Equus is soo beautiful! I tamed a low level one and put a bunch of levels into melee and stam and a little health. And he is an absolute beast. Knocks out everything with 1 hit. I’ve had to start putting levels into speed or I’d kill things instead of knocking out. He is named Gold and he is gold spotted with russet brown as his main coat: I plan on using him for the knock out missions when they are put back into Xbox.
These are annoying to tame but so helpful in the long haul
On ragnarok they are pretty easy to tame. In the highlands there is a farm with rockarrots and savoroots so you can easily get their preferred food. They themselves live in the highlands too so if you're always relatively close to the farm in case you need more carrots.
YOU NEED THIS CREATURE in its saddle it is basically a portable mortar and pestle THOUGH it has another blueprint only buildable in their inventory, the lasso this lasso can pull knocked out dinos up to quetzal size out of water if they get knocked out while above or in water saved many of my dinos over the years
When you get an argy, you can make a small 2x1 pen, pick up the horse and tame it in the pen without it running away from you.
1. make taming pen
2. take argy, find equus
3. take equus to taming pen
4. knock out equus, DONT put food in inventory
5. wait for it to wake up and start the taming process
Reason you knock it out is to make sure its hunger goes down that way taming speed is faster
First of all, keep in mind that this is NOT a knockout tame, you need to put one of its taming foods in your last item slot (berries are the easiest, and I’m pretty sure mejoberries are it’s preferred berry) then, you slowly walk up to it from behind and feed it, as its eating the food, you will get the option to mount it. Once you are riding it, feed it every time it stops running around and tries to buck you off, repeat this over and over until it’s finally tamed. Also, try not to mess up and get bucked off, because the taming percentage will drop at light speed as soon as you do.
Also, before you start taming it in the middle of nowhere, I recommend that you first grab it with a flyer like an argentavis, then drop it in a Dino gate enclosure, If you don’t trap it, it’ll most likely take you on a trip over to the nearest raptor pack. After you trap it, you may need to leave it alone for a few minutes until it finally calms down, then tame away to your hearts content, Hope this helps! :)
If you mess up the tame and get bucked off, when you get back on the taming process becomes harder and requires more carrots. The more times you fall, harder it gets. Get a tribe mate to cover you while taming to keep troodons and the like at bay.
They're usually found along the edge of the desert if you circle it you'll find a few. I tamed two on SE there as compared to the island where I found one and couldn't tame it. The map is wrong about the spawn points js.
Can craft Lassos in Equus's inventory which can be used to reposition smaller conscious and unconscious tames into your base. Just target the KO'd Dino and ride it back to safety. Also acts as a mobile mortar and pestle.
Equus's also has a very high melee torpor modifier on right click attacks, seems to be 3-5x listed damage as torpor. A mate boosted and melee leveled Equus's can KO targets extremely quickly. I keep a male and female near my taking pen at all times.
You're best on a megalosaurus with some speed pumped, 130-ish, so you can catch up to the horse and pick it up. Bring it to a taming pen so it doesn't run straight into your base defense... for me, a dozen Rexes on aggressive.
On the island, I found them hanging out on the shore
Walk up with a carrot and feed it to them, then ride and soothe them with the carrot.
