Taming & KO Tips

How do I tame a equus? Tips and strategies on taming and knocking out a equus.
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're mounted on a scorpion they will not run from you, on the mobile version at least.
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
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! :)
Just use wyvern or some creatures that can grab it and put it in a doorframe cage. Now just feed it and drive, spaming E ( on PC ) until it is tamed
(For Ark Mobile players) - you do NOT have to mount the Equus to complete the “Tame Equus” mission [I hope someone’s stress levels went down upon hearing that]. It seems to enjoy spawning near annoyingly dangerous dinos. Feed it rockarrots and MOVE AWAY until it is hungry again. Follow those two steps until you tame it. For me it took 8-10 feeds, lasted 7-9 minutes. I was lucky that the T-Rex, Raptors and Carnos got themselves killed AND my Equus (Willa) glitched between trees making taming easier. I hope your tame goes just as smooth. Good luck friends :)
build a box once you spot one grab an argie and pick it up and drop it in the bix make sure the walls are 2 walls hight a tip
When you are on it and it bucks, tap the carrots down at the corner. You should have them ready and it doesn’t take that long with carrots, but it will with somethings. And the spawn all over the map. Like if this helped pls!
2.storie part2 wonderful adventure of vexen(my character name)
