It's a lie the karkinos can't be picked up by a quetzal.
Karkinos
The Karkinos is a massive crab-like creature in Ark: Aberration that can grab and smash creatures and players. It can also throw them at great lengths. Using its strong legs, the Karkinos can leap to impressive heights.
Player-written tips for taming, using, and fighting the Karkinos in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
Instead of using your own light pet which will run out of energy, use a crab to pick a wild one. Free energy.(perhaps)
Despite what it say at capabilities it can't carry any flyer
Am I have encountered this thing yet and I’m not sure how powerful it is I’m level 152 and I have all tek stuff and I have all the tek armoured dinosaurs like it or not
It has to be over 6500 to not kill anything lower will die
They cannot be carried by quetzal!!! Tamed or wild!!
I thought it was the bloodstalker on aberration. I found it in the water and thought it was a blood stalker but it was just a karkino up if this happened to you
It can hold very big Dinos (players to) like I picked up a carno with it,a thorny dragon with it,a thysleo with it,sarcos With it!you can even pash them in the ground wen you pick up a Dino or person so hard IT KILLS THEM.-DJ Fox7222
Make sure u hit it in the face I killed mine by accident because I missed his face 😂
Hit it in the stomach to knock it out faster!
Knocked out a 120 with one cannon ball
Drops organic polymer and chitin also
Use with snky black box anky inventory.Use whip and trans bsck to base to fill dedi boxes and multiple indi forges

I highly recommend taming for soaking bullets in pvp. Why they take more damage if hit on the legs well because people who are reading this tip you can pick up stegos or trikes to soak the bullets for your karkinos so technically not a soaker but very officiant at makeing other creatures soak for you I guess. When your done soaking yeet the creature’s you were soaking with into there base and let them do some damage and distract them while you break in and destroy the base. And if you don’t believe me I only post true information about creature’s I have ether tested or seen in game or in a yt video. Warning they get bounced back if shot by tek turrets. Everyone watch rassclark I saw his video on tanky tames which helped supply some of the information to be more pacific it was the warning about the tek turrets so you should definitely subscribe to rassclark if you haven’t already. Hope this helps and see you in the next tip ;) - A.L.N.A
So... the guys are really usfull you should pump up a lot of melee and stamina and its a great PvE creature, tho i don t consider it so usfull on PvP. U can tame it with a trap but never ever use a cannon on an under 100 lvl because he might get 1 shoted, remember that these…
So... the guys are really usfull you should pump up a lot of melee and stamina and its a great PvE creature, tho i don t consider it so usfull on PvP. U can tame it with a trap but never ever use a cannon on an under 100 lvl because he might get 1 shoted, remember that these guys are a damage dino not tank, so be really careful i recomand watching some youtube videos about trapping them and thats all.

A well imprinted karkinos with really high health can be effective against reaper queens since they don't get torpor from it's attacks and can jump away if you are about to get pushed into molten element of angry rock drakes and/or spinos just keep in mind your karkinos will probably get flung as soon as you dismount. Always make sure you have a glide suit so you can get back to your crab safely as megas and carnos will suddenly aggro on you. Also good for underwater exploration albeit it is not built for speed eels and cindaria will not aggro karkinos. Karkinos can also be used to tame just about anything sarcos or smaller since it can grab them and you can use a longneck/crossbow while mounted and it won't drop them when you dismount. Do not overestimate it's climbing ability it doesn't jump as high as it looks.
I dare you to tame with raw fish meat.
The karkinos is like a titanosaur but much weaker
I’m having trouble taming one I trap it with pillars and leave to make a catapult but when I come back he is somehow out
Kill smaller Ceatures
till you get bigger
