Player-written tips for taming, using, and fighting the Karkinos in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.

They can be outran on foot with a bit of speed upgrades, however make sure you dont cut it close or else OH YEA MR KRABS

Has a slow reaction time and you can usually avoid it attacking you by running under its legs.This might change in later patches

I should have known u can’t tame Alpha Karkinos… my mistake😂😂😂 I spawned it with admin commands and it cooked me DID YOU KNOW IT CAN GRAB YOU??? Nah

Kill and use chainsaw for organic polymer or even better use a moschops spec’d into organic farm to really increase that organic poly farm easily

I just figured out that rocket launchers deal torpor to the karkinos, much like the rock golems, but they die a bit more quicker since they don't have much health and rocket launchers deal a lot of damage.

Your crab is out of HP, and there is no annimal corpses to bring? Just put 10+ sleeping bags not far from the trap and let Karkinos kill you enough times to regain HP (as I calculated - 300 HP per death)

This works only when Kark is not fleeing. Otherwise you need to wait…

If you manage to tame one of these than go and grab stuff and KIl IT :)

They can jump real far and there so strong I recommend it if you want to destroy things

On ASA only use catupolts, cannons no matter if you hit the head it will decrease the taming effectively, and cannons are super hard to aim you have to press buttons in more options to aim it, catupolts are a lot more easy. Up to let people know

Good for launching swamp fever dodos into enemy bases and watching them suffer. Or throw a load of tickle chickens. OP.

Watch YouTube video from captain fatdog karkinos trap and use this to tame them. I struggled so many times and then I realised you can't do it going up a hill. Flat surface and hitting it in the head are the two main problems but as soon as I had got it right it was so…
