They’re fast, the leap distance is incredible. When saddled it becomes a mobile mortar & pestle. Always wanted to make narcotics on the go? Now you can! The back-kick does torpor damage. Aside from being squishy (health is always low), these are a perfect early game mount.
Equus
The Equus is a horse-like creature that can be mounted with special saddles. While mounted, survivors can use whips and lassos.

What ARK players use the Equus for, and how to get the most out of it in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
Legit Tamed 2 Allo’s And A Spino, Best Tame EVER!!! (Don’t use it on Giga Or Rip)
The guy who asked why it has weight reduction on cementing paste, it's because it's a mobile morter and pestle so it has reduction on narcotics, sparkpowder etc.
I recommend an Equus for those travelers, it has amazing speed, can hold a ton of Weight, and i use it for all of exploring.
These guys have great stamina when running but when you get one PUMP UP ITS STAMINA! It has terrible stamina when fighting and if your stuck in a fight your stamina will run out really quickly, so if you don’t get away, you will either die while waiting for your stamina to…
These guys have great stamina when running but when you get one PUMP UP ITS STAMINA! It has terrible stamina when fighting and if your stuck in a fight your stamina will run out really quickly, so if you don’t get away, you will either die while waiting for your stamina to recharge or your Equus will fall asleep and die. Up this so noobs will see
On mobile they have inf stam (like the iguanadon) and they dont take fall dmg if you jump. At least not in my experience. I dont recommend testing this because i just tamed it like 10 mins ago and named it Phil lmao
This horse is a great tame using it for expeditions and scouting. If you take good care of this tame it will be your only go to tame for traveling. Mobile chem bench and friend.
when you equip a saddle it can be used as a mortar and pestle
Tamed a trike with a good level so yeah
For all you noobs out there who want a horse with broken torpor the more you put into damage the more torpor you deal per hit.
This thing is GOATED!
- Fast
- good stam
- avg health
- decent torpor tolerance
- mort&pest saddle (for on the go narcs)
- torpor attack (for on the go knockouts)
- can jump
- weight reduction on stone and such
Only downside is health
These things are honestly the best taming creature. Put alot of levels into DMG and theyre knock-out torpidity increases alot. Its not the fastest method, but its the cheapest. I have knocked out 80% of my tames with a lvl288 equus, fast and easy, and super cheap!
Do not go near raptors on this thing
Great tame if you pump health and melee you can knock out barys carnos and theris easy pump weight and you have mortar and pestle with unlimited space honestly just great tames can't recommend enough
If you play without flying, this thing is a must have. Decent weight, almost no stamina consumption while sprinting, reduced fall damage and imprinted ones are really fast. The Buck Kick (L2 on PS4) is really good forknocking out creatures. And don't forget that this…

This is my go to mount.
Pump stats to speed, weight and stamina if you’re traveling with it. And just health if you’re just gonna display it on your base
They can make lassos and work as a mortar and pestle with a saddle and you get an equus saddle by completing the “tame equus” mission
On Ragnarok these are the best early game tames, here's why:
1. You don't need saddle to ride.
2. They are found almost anywhere with vegetables
23 They are passive tames and their fav food are carrots, and on Highlands you can find a bunch of carrot…

23 They are passive tames and their fav food are carrots, and on Highlands you can find a bunch of carrot bushes.
4. They are fast and can jump pretty high.
5. They look cool.
Lassoing is the new method of being an annoying asshat to new players!
MOBILE PLAYERS- to buck kick swipe down with your steering hand. To do a normal attack just tap.
