ARK: Survival Evolved & Ascended Companion
Tips & Strategies
If you pick up a wild dino in the claw you can get off the crab and it will still be held. So you can grab something like a ravager and it will be chilling there while you make narcotics and such. Also for ravagers you can pick up the alpha without angering the others just donβt attack or it makes things harder.

If you're carrying a tamed Doedicurus in your claw the Doedic will automatically start harvesting any stones you hover him over. Just start pumping points into your Doedic's weight because it will stop at about half of its own carry weight. I've yet to discover another tame it will work with though...
Be careful when carrying a Dino that has a tribe mate mounted on it. I was walking up a hill carrying my anky with a tribe mate on it and they went under the map and died. RIP ANKY AND SHINEHORN. Tribemate was eh anyway.
You can pickup and yeet dinos with it
CAN PICK UP THERIZ. β + TO SEE!!!
Alright not exactly my tip, but heard this from the YouTuber pterafier. He said that using a Crab with a Turtle with C4 strapped on it is a good seige device. Put C4 on Turtle, then use Crab to throw the Turtle at a base. Detonate the C4, blowing up the base where the Turtle is at. I'd recommend watching Pterafier, he has a lot of tips on his channel.
Basically the new quetz. Super weight and can carry tames to harvest resources and then throw them back into the base ;)
Grab two velonasaors on turret mode and then run around. It looks like it is holding two pistols
The Karkinos is considered a large predator and therefore does not aggro other predators when ridden (with the exception of other karkinos, rock drakes, etc.), making it a great mount for relatively safe traveling!
HOWEVER!!! Smaller predators WILL attack if your karkinos is holding a prey creature in its claws, so keep this in mind while transporting tames and wild creatures!
