What is a equus used for? equus battling strategies in ARK: Survival Evolved.
THE BEST ANIMAL IN THE GAME!!! I’ve tamed every single other Dino I have using this guy!!! Knock them out and keep them under by harvesting Marco berries right then and there. Lvl up melee to knock out a lvl 150 Rex by kicking in the face before it’s roaring animation is even finished! Lvl speed to outrun raptors, and knock out a raptor before it even pounces! Keep quick dropping torpor Dino’s like Theriz and pachyrino under with berry harvesting (scorpion and frog can’t do this) lasso and craft narcotic from the saddle! Good swimmer and amazing jumper! Not to mention the thrill of finding the unicorn variant! A must have tame early game! (Funnest passive tame as well)
Alright , so here’s how you’re gonna get yourself an Equus that can knock out everything from a Dilo to a lvl 135 Rex. Step one is, obviously, get yourself an Equus. They are commonly found in wide, open, grassy fields. To tame one, you have to sneak up behind it and feed it some food. Carrots are the best, besides kibble, but berries work on lower levels, too. After than, you have a short amount of time to mount the horse. When it kicks it’s legs back and nays, you have to feed it. Rinse and repeat until you have a horse. Then, level up it’s damage to around 250, you don’t want to kill you potential tame. You’ll also want to level movement speed and health. And that’s about it. You should also be careful when knocking things out with this thing. If you kick something while it’s unconscious, it could die, and if it doesn’t, it’ll ruin the taming effectiveness. Be especially careful when knocking out creatures trapped by the net projectile, as it can be hard to tell when their knocked out. Good luck, and happy taming.

Level Health and Stamina and a little bit of melee, up to 200 per kick and use to knock out literally everything. Can knock out whole heards of wolves and allos. Can even knock out a giga with high enough health. Remember to use a saddle for extra armor. Wont even need tranqs and horses can make narcotics with the saddle so it's an all in 1 taming machine.
They are easy to tame at the Ragnarok highlands. As they can farm large amount of berries, can craft narcos in their inventory, can shot while riding it and have a strong topor-attack they are great taming assists. A saddled one with 2k+ hp, 2500+ sta and 500%+ dmg unskilled/born stats can easy knock out high rexes and other stuff. If the target run away you can easy follow and shot more tranqs. They have a high hp-regen and with full imprint they can get 314% speed. That is like a wyver fly and enough to run away even from alpha rex. If you cant tame a wild, maybe another player tried and failed. You need to knock it out to reset a failed taming.
When the winged hussars arrived
A cry for help in time of need, await relief from holy league
60 days of siege, outnumbered and weak
Sent a message to the sky, wounded soldiers left to die
Will they hold the wall or will the city fall
Dedication
Dedication
They're outnumbered 15 to one
And the battle's begun
Then the winged hussars arrived
Coming down the mountainside
Then the winged hussars arrived
Coming down they turned the tide
As the days are passing by and as the dead are piling high
No escape and no salvation
Trenches to explosive halls are buried deep beneath the walls
Plant the charges there and watch the city fear
Desperation
Desperation
It's a desperate race against the mine
And a race against time
Then the winged hussars arrived
Coming down the mountainside
Then the winged hussars arrived
Coming down they turned the tide
Cannonballs are coming down from the sky
Janissaries are you ready to die?
We will seek our vengeance eye for an eye
You'll be stopped upon the steps of our gate
On this field you're only facing our hate
But back home the sultan's sealing your fate
We remember
In September
That's the night Vienna was freed
We made the enemy bleed!
Storm clouds, fire and steel
Death from above make their enemy kneel
