teachers game too has a good video for a trap with metal triangle roofs that i use religiously on rag asa
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.
If you are playing on asa breed two high levels and boom you have a poly farm
Throwing a plant z grenade can cause a Karkinos to drop you or your dino. Essential when traveling on Ravenger back.
You need Exceptional Kibble since the new kibble system.
ASA: Cannon ball to head, no effectiveness loss from the hit, single hit KO on a 150 (mine was on Aberration). Just have to time it right, make sure your cannon is properly aimed, and maybe a silent prayer. Spoiled meat is effective for the game if you don't have kibble…

Spoiled meat is effective for the game if you don't have kibble, although kibble is probably the best idea.
This thing is an absolute powerhouse early game, also if you are nervous of going in blue zone for anky’s use Mr. Krabs and 2 ravagers to gather metal.
Unless I am missing something, the Quetzal CANNOT pick up the Karkinos with their feet.
They will eat spoiled meat when raising
Despite being a pain to ko and tame these are some of the best aberration tames(besides the rock drake)
They can pick up most dinos and can easily kill most powerful dinos.
They can jump and are super useful for carrying ally survivors and dinos to raid bases.

best krob
also their chibi is one of the only chibis that aren’t super ugly which is good
UPDATE: Ankys now auto-swing til half weight like Dodics. Gtab a dodic on the left, anky on the right, stone and metal for days
can be found along with ravagers and other creatures on Valguero. northeast of map, look for underground waterfall.
I talked to a dev he said I should try to tame it like a rock golem he suggested catapults
When using the catapult stick something on your screen where your crosshairs would normally be ( so dead centre of screen)
Will help tremendously when for aiming the thing
Make sure you know where your Larkin is is before you set up your trap. Do not lead them to your trap on foot. Kill EVERYTHING in the area before leading them over. Place down bed or sleeping bag. These tips will save you a lot of stress
Put catapult on paraser and have a friend run underneath it with a rock drake and the crap won't be able to walk
I have knocked out a 150 with 10 catapults but I have tamed over 100 so have at least 18 ready cause not all topor is the same...
Wilds are Great for organic polymer and Tamed are great for carrying and throwing stegos to tank during raids
Stryder cannon does not work for torpor. Does insta-boil the Karkinos though.
Use the net gun to trap one, place down a catapult turret, have boulders in you inventory, start shooting at it. If it runs towards you net it again because they can pull you off your catapult. Once it’s knocked out feed it spoiled meat
Killing these will give you alot of chitin and organic polymer if you ever wanna live on floating islands on crystal isles.
