Tips & Strategies
I can not stress enough to my friends how useful the trike is. Early game it makes a great pack animal. Late game in groups of three or four it can be used as a decent battle mount. Taming a trike early on can be a great way to start a large base and keep you well fed with berries.
More Triceratops Utility Tips
With the new TLC, it has OUTSTANDING thatch collecting ( 1000 in 4 trees with a max charge. )
Utility Roles for Trike:
1. Tank. When faced with head on damage, they have a damage reduction. Be sure to pair with mate for extra damage resistance (level Health).
2. Short Range Scout. The Trike is not very fast, but again, due to the damage resistance it has (and it's just general beefiness), it can serve as a good scout for early game. Much better than the Para in that regard (level Health, Stam, and Movement Speed).
3. Harvester. This boi can collect quite a decent amount of wood and fiber, much more than you can by hand. Use with Charge attack for extra resources! (level Weight and Stamina).
4. Defender. Use him to defend your base and smaller tames. Really the only early game threat a Trike can't handle are alphas and the occasional Theri. But trust me, I've seen one of these things face down a Sarco and live (level Health and Melee Damage)

If you ever catch these guys in the wild and wonder why their heads are glowing red, you should probably run because thereβs a Rex/Spino in the area.
If the triceratops head is glowing that means there is a large predator nearby
On ASA, PS5 version. Trike will charge up, but then stops either few steps into it. Sometimes this happens at takeoff from charge. Iβm unsure if I am maybe doing it wrong or itβs a bug. Is anyone else having this issue? Thinking of taming a Rhino to see if there is any better results. Will update. Best of luck to all you Survivors!

Cool tip!
Just realized, if you put rockarrots in their inventory they wonβt spoil!
βοΈ So nubs can see!!
A triceratops is a very special dinosaur in this game. It is easy enough to tame at a low level, yet powerful enough to take on raptors that could kill you easily. It can collect enough berries that you would never go hungry again, and still have some berries leftover to help tame more trikes. They are very slow but it can make up for it if you increase the weight, attack, and stamina stats. It is an extremely good pack animal because it can carry a lot, but still defend itself, especially if it is in a large group. Overall, the triceratops is one of my favorite and most versatile dinosaurs.
If one of these guys has a glowing head, run away because there is a large predator like a Spino or Rex nearby
