Taming & KO Tips

How do I tame a equus? Tips and strategies on taming and knocking out a equus.
TAMING
get carrots or kibble in your Last inventory Slot. Go Up to the Equus you want to tame, preferable in full ghillie. Seit in its Back and aß soon a s the Game tellls you its gettin nervous or smth. Press E. That will make it calm down.
I suggest building a pen for when you do find one. Ride around on an Argy and when you see one pick it up and bring it to the pen! Then you don't have to worry about it running away and it's in a safe place!
I was trying to tame 1 of them when a level 247 spino came up 2 us and tryd to say hi and the tame was 93.4% so i got relly mad. Then i saw a nather equus and saw it get eaten by a carno

You need rockarrots to tame them crouch near them and ride them then
You need to feed them a rockarrot when they go crazy
Here is how I tame an equus first I build a therizino trap next I use an arge to drop the equus in therizino trap finally I just throw rock carrots at it and that is how you tame an equus my style hope this helps everyone who's trying to tame an equus.
Wait does the taming bar need to show ip? (Up for yes down for no) like I’ve been feeding this horse forever send help
1%of life give a rock carro and tou tame its a big for tame the eqqus
What can kill them ?!!
The noctis is harder to tame than the griffin
These are annoying to tame but so helpful in the long haul
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.
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.
I find that carrots work really nicely. Also for begginers that dont have access to a ghillie suit. Press x and crawl uo to them with said carrot or berry in your 0 slot. As soon as u get close enoigh press E to feed is and then mount it. Every time it bucks press e again to calm it down. Be wary when approaching however because if it gets spooked and bucks you, you will be unconscious for a bit.
Only good with saddle buff said mofos then make it breedable imagine some of the awesome mutations
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
