Taming & KO Tips
How do I tame a equus? Tips and strategies on taming and knocking out a equus.
What you need for taming an equus,
1. Ghillie armor
2. 10 rockarrot
3. A tame that is in the area
4. Food for the equus (put in inventory)
I was taming one of these things, and I decide to count the time between each feeding on mobile it was around from seven seconds to 41 seconds for anyone that’s curious most of the time it was in the 20s
(This is approximately so it would probably be different for you)
My Equus was a pain but I got it by my argentavis
To tame these is what I did I brought them to my base where my friend gave some balm and it tamed instantly so always use MAJOR SOOTHING BALM
Like if helpful :)
When taming these guys, I recommend two things:
1. Get it in a taming pen either by carrying it and dropping it in or by knocking it out and building the pen around it.
2. Bring at least a full stack of carrots —they spoil kinda quick, plus they only give a tiny bit of progress.

To tame these guys, you need to go and find a place where you know they spawn, then make a four by four structure two walls high. And then get a argaventise and grab the equus, then put it in the safe structure, nothing SHOULD see you if you stay inside with the equus, but, they usually need rockarrots, but sometimes other things, but I would suggest get some seeds and grow atleast 50 carrots, then when you have your taming food, you can either wait a while for them to get hungry each time, or every minute or two mount them, feed them quickly, then get off, if you do everything correctly you should get your horse! Goodluck! Hope this helped!
It’s not too easy to find an equus on the island, when you do, they are normally in dangerous areas such as near swamps, ravines, in the depths of the jungle, and grasslands/fields. So I’d say hop on argentavis and carry it, fly home or to an enclosed structure and drop it off there, making it easy for you to keep it and you safe AND if it kicks you off, it can’t run far! And if you’re looking for rock carrots to tame it with, I’d say grow them, inside a greenhouse for a 2x growing effect, I make more than 200 rock carrots off of one plant! ~Hope this helped!

Something with EQUUSES is that they tend to appear in areas by shores and in dangerous areas so when you taming them make sure you have at least 65 rockoroots because some EQUUS take longer or shorter to tame and bola it so it doesn’t jump of a cliff and it hells a lot when you have God Consle because when a dangerous animal comes you can kill it Ty for reading have a good day🥰😁
Taming a equus is a passive tame not a knock out. You'll need to make a trap so it won't run off and get killed. You'll need as much berries as the DeX says. And have a ghillie suit to not spook it.But in case you accidently mount off and lose some taming effect have some more berries with you just in case. This is how I did it.
Don’t breed these. They take forever, your better off just getting carrot seeds and taming another one.
Xbox one: as soon as you mount you need to feed again straight away otherwise you're dumped.
Btw have a argy when taming and drop it into house with a open roof
A Rex was easier to tame then this guy
Take a argentavis and take it home which is easy to tames these guys
333 yes! I have seen near where. River splits on an island I call equus island
You can pick this creature up with a wyvern and quetzal I tried it
On PS5 you cannot feed the equus when mounted for whatever reason, if you press triangle again you dismount it doesn’t let you feed or if you press L1+left on the d-pad you eat the carrot yourself and you don’t feed the carrot to the equus? I’ve had to go into creative mode and forcetame one to actually have one. Not sure if it’s a bug but just letting it be known.
1. Build a 4 by 4 wooden wall or stronger (not thatch)
2. use a arventavis to pick up a equus
3. put equus in the pen or chamber what ever you want to call it
4. then just equip rockarrots
5. then do the rest
Does anyone know what it means when you tame it and it says lazy equus?(does it mean anything)
If you have a argen or quez, you can carry it to the volcano.
After that, go behind it and feed carrot. While Equus is eating, you can ride it. Repeat feeding carrot until it is tamed. Hope you enjoy the game and have a nice day. Bye Bye
