When mine was getting tamed in redwood he was like running in a same trail because there was a large fallen redwood tree on one side and on other it was the redwood sapling and there was a terror bird but eventually he was lured by a gallilimus (sorry if I misspelled) at that time I thought gallilimus was an avatar of God haha anyways he is still alive (equus)

To tame them just crouch and walk towards it. Make sure that before hand you have about 100-150 method berries if you want to go simple like me. Put the mejo berries in your last slot and then press feed. Right after you feed it press ride and then press the button to ride again. It will feed it another Berry and let it run around with u on its back. After a while it will try to buck u off. Simply press the ride button again and it will feed it. Just keep doing that until it is tames. I play PC and so it might not work on mobile. -CyberOwl6

Here's a proper way for getting early versatile mount on mobile, first, get something like raptor (to actually find an equus)

Next you wanna do the hunter cave to get a balm, but I prefer Saving the balm you get from piranha hunting pursuit xd

At last, get some rockarrots(Trike/Stegois the best for it. You can try farming using a medium crop plot too, they're pretty common in loot drops) and start the pursuit and go searching for them

I find "the forest near the soo called volcano mountain and the whole area around green obelisk" the best places for finding equus

Wherever you find them, just soothe them with balm then feed carrots and you got yourself a very versatile mount

For mobile players I found it easy to just pick these up with an argy drop it off at a safe location or a built trap and go from there. (They will run off when dropped with argy be aware where you are they like going into the water)

Make sure that you do not have your spyglass in your hand when hopping on the Equus. If you do, it will make you auto-look through it and you won't be able to put it away. You won't be able to see the feed prompt and will be kicked off. This just happened to me on a 150 Day is during x2 -_-

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

I know the pursuit says get 5 carrots, but you need lot’s more.

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

I'd say building the pen is best bet but why these gotta be so hard?Also how do you feed it while riding?

Just tamed a 290 with 100% effectiveness. It wasn't actually hard this time since I've learned how it behaves when I tamed a 40. I'm on mobile, so just keep your finger over where the rockcarrot is in your hotbar. When it's hungry a pop up will come exactly where something has spoiled pop up comes. Let it come every 40 seconds or so and tap on it once instantly. Yeah it could be a tedious process to keep the focus.

I'd suggest using a soothing balm to shorten the time and use your argy to bring it some place safe where you'll tame it and wear a ghilie to get close to it.

Please let others see. It's actually very easy to tame a higher level one without losing any effectiveness.

These guys are pretty annoying to tame but if using rockcarrot they are pretty much as good as your. P.S. get a farm early on and get you one of these NOW

Would really recommend using the carrots! It tames it much faster and oof i have lost about 6 unicorns because i got kick off and it ran away then died, dont be like me and just get it over with lol

On the ps4 you have to hold down triangle win it tells you to in the bottom right side hopefully this helps

Why did no one tell me you need to be at least lvl 10 to be able to tame one? Yeah, you need to be at least lvl 10!

I discovered it’s easier to tame a archy first then go find a equus, pick it up and take it back to a pen. That sounds dumb I know but it’s a guarantee tame success. The amount of times I have had them get eaten or run off a cliff drove me to this solution.

To tame a horse I would use a bird that can pick it up and take it to a pen where you could take it. And if you wanna use berry I would take 300 for a 145 to the lowest. I hoped I helped Somone that wanted a horse

I recommend rockarrot for taming them it tames faster

A pen does help taming Equus and can keep them from running into unsafe areas while you do, but you need to give them time in the game to calm down from being either dropped by a flyer or pulled by a lasso into the pen.

Once the Equus is in the pen leave it alone for an in-game day. Keep your tames and yourself away from the pen. Once it calms down, go in and tame like you normally tame an Equus.

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
