Tips & Strategies

This is an amazing beginners dinasaur! If you're playing with your sibling, and they own the world, you can hit and continue to knock out the Dino. You re spawn near them, so you can take your time too!
More Triceratops Taming & KO Tips
Low level way to tame: use a shield to have to trike hit you back, then shoot it with an arrow. Rinse and repeat till you have knocked out the giant lizard
If your skilled enough use a club n a shield and a bow/spear, get it halfway then when it starts to flee start hitting it with the club
This is what’s you’ll need to tame it:narco berries narcotics tranq arrows and some wood structures. Step one: make a taming trap. Make it big Enough so the trike can’t get out make a ramp into the trap and a small door for a survivor to fit in. Step two: Hit the trike run into the trap and go through the small door. Step three get on top of the ramp and start shooting it with Tranq arrows. Also DON’T SHOOT AT THE HEAD THEY HAVE EXTRA PROTECTION THERE.step four:once it’s knocked out put your narco berries and narcotics in the trike and wait for it to be tamed. If this helped please hit the arrow pointing towards the sky.
First, for low levels, I suggest finding one that is stuck in between two trees which is surprisingly common. I used a crossbow, but you could just use a bow. Craft tranq arrows. Shoot at the belly, and try to do it quickly before it can get free. I suggest 4-6 tranq arrows, maybe more for a higher level. I brought a few narcotics just in case, but I didn’t use any so you don’t necessarily have to. Bring about 20-40 berries, probably more, and you’ll most likely have extra. Put it in the triceratops’s inventory and wait (in my experience it went up by 2%, so make sure you’re ready for a wait). If you leave it’s side the taming will still go up. After it is tamed, name it!
Extra: bolas will NOT work, if you use them they will start to attack.
Uses: they can be extremely strong (I have seen a group of 2-3 trikes kill a sarco, which is a much more high-level tame). Once a saddle is crafted, they are not very fast but they do collect thatch easily from trees as well as short amounts of wood. They get much more berries from a single bush than you can. They do not jump when you’re riding.
Thanks for reading! Sorry it was so long. Please up for the noobs to see! And of course, have a nice day.
When you have high hp and decent armor its no problem since u can tank the hits while tranqing it
İf you dont here is what to do
Get some healing food in your hotbar and even the worst armor will do.You need 10x tranq arrows just in case and a bow you just run and head shot it mejo berries are more usefull put atleast 30 since it will also have food to eat after its tamed trike is good against raptors and farms better berries than parasaur, trikes special ability is a RAM that farms wood and thach very good hope this helped!
Never aim for their head, they have better protection there you,ll be wasting your tranq arrows.
In Soviet Russia trike tame u
It's not as hard as I thought to Knock it out I did it with a wooden club (definitely dint die like 4 times)it was only a level 4 but it's cool (boost this so low level beginners can see).
You just need 15 tranquilizing arrows for a triceratops that has 400 to 600 Health 😁
Never slingshot or shoot tranq arrows at the trike’s head. They have extra protection there. aim for the body instead.
