Jumps super high and can launch stegos ... two at a time RIP turrets lol
THEY CANT BREED ON MOBILE!!!!
I spent 4 hours taming a high level pair just for them to NOT BREED. This seriously pisses me off, please let others know about this.
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.
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…
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...
Literally the most useful creature ever ,
Need stone/metal/flint it can carry both anky and doed at the same time while benefiting from their weight reduction
Need wood? Can carry the bevear guys plus it got a huuuuge weight so it can carry anything
Need DMG? It has lots…

Need a caring soulmate to help you when your at your deepest? ...... Honestly it don got that but it can jump like three stories high
CAN PICK UP THERIZ. — + TO SEE!!!
Basically the new quetz. Super weight and can carry tames to harvest resources and then throw them back into the base ;)
You can pickup and yeet dinos with it
You can fire weapons while riding it. Hold a creature you'd like to tame, then tranq it while your crab holds it in a claw - makes solo taming easy!
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…

Grab two velonasaors on turret mode and then run around. It looks like it is holding two pistols
No one seems to have mentioned that karkinos can use tools, they just need a special type of tool: doedicurus, use a karkinos to pick up a tamed armadillo and walk around to rocks and the armadillo hits the rocks and keeps them stored, argies and quetz can do it to but they can…
No one seems to have mentioned that karkinos can use tools, they just need a special type of tool: doedicurus, use a karkinos to pick up a tamed armadillo and walk around to rocks and the armadillo hits the rocks and keeps them stored, argies and quetz can do it to but they can only hold one and they don't spawn on abberation, not sure but if you transfer a beaver to abberation you might be able to use it and an armadillo at the same time to gather both rock and wood
They are immune to radiation and are great for leaping past danger when trying to get a rock Drake egg.
For cave raids put c4 on a turtle then use mr.crabs to yet the turtle to destroy bases
Beaver in one claw
Doed in the other
Farm some stone structures
You can use Kark to pick up your tamed Castoroide and use it as a hatchet, that way you get half weight on the wood going into your Castoroide.
An all around amazing tame with a variety of uses. Hunt trilobites for oil. Carry armadillos for farming stone and clearing paths. Delicately plucking dinos off an elevator. Exploring. Farming gems from rats. The list goes on and on, just be creative. Its almost OP but it is…
An all around amazing tame with a variety of uses. Hunt trilobites for oil. Carry armadillos for farming stone and clearing paths. Delicately plucking dinos off an elevator. Exploring. Farming gems from rats. The list goes on and on, just be creative. Its almost OP but it is hard to tame. Not only do you need a catapult but you also need to score only body shots and even then pray that its strong enough to survive the hits. It's tanky, uses surprisingly very little stamina, has a good attack even without the grab, well worth the trouble.
(Pest cleaning): Grabbed wild/enemy creatures , as far i have seen,will take damage 2 two times (the second a bit weaker) so, It is actually very good at pest control, and i say the big ones, raptors, thylas, sabers and more, and you can even throw them away, works well with…

(Baby sitter): Considering the karkinos can grab 2 creatures a time, jump and throw them, It passes the job apply for baby sitter perfeclty, pair with maewing/guana and gigantoraptor, the nannies will raise a baby with great performance.(Also, If you are a modder and see this, we need a maid/ baby sitter costume for karkinos NOW, It would be funny by a lot)
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
(Wild baby claim assister): It can grab wild babies, so, you can dismount then walk in the arm the claim It, no baby running.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
(Tame/Farmer Assist/Carrier): Nah, i don't even need to say It, it's intuitive, terrestrial argy/rhynio go BRRRR!
Made by Vinícius, also, if possible, i would appreciate an green arrow pointing to the sky!
Once you tame the Karkinos anything that fits in its claws just hold them there and traq them
