ARK: Survival Evolved & Ascended Companion
Tips & Strategies
So this is all that I know about uses of trikes
1: they are good for protection even if wild and could be in groups of 3
2: they have red heads if there's a spino/rex/giga so run
3: you can spam attack so it can take on rexes
4: very tanky if you pump health into it
5: easy tame so you can always get one even if you noob
6: can give horn thingy so you can make saddles
7: can swim fast in water (out run's megs)
8: has a stun attack so you can hit and run
Now for weakness:
1: raptors can dis mount you
2: can't kill spinos
3: slow
4: not that useful in late game
That's all I know :written by dragonii
👆 For noobs to see and learn the uses
Trike is a good starter dino.You can kill enemies with him very fast and u can farm berries like nothing.
Your Pocket Triceratops Taming Guide
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Some info-
Ah, the trike. Your trusty early-game berry gatherer and a surprisingly strong (and surprisingly slow!) mount. You've probably tamed one before, but if you haven't, you've come to the right place.
Taming-
I would recommend using tranq arrows or darts, although you shouldn't really need to tame a trike by the time you unlock tranq darts. Get up somewhere high (But be careful as trikes can climb better than you'd think) or get it stuck between two trees. If you want you could use a trap, but it shouldn't be nessesary. As for taming food, my choice would be mejoberries. They're easier to obtain than crops and actually tame it quicker! You'll need 85 mejoberries for a level 150. As for narcotics, you'll need to bring some, no matter what level you're going after.
Saddling and Stats-
Good bulky tames with a high health stat. Stamina is average, and is the one I put the most points into. Saddle is simply made from hide, wood and fibre (I think).
Breeding-
I haven't written a section on breeding one of these guides before, and I don't know too much about trike breeding, so don't take my word as fact. One thing you'll need, berries. Trike eggs can be hatched under 3-4 standing torches and are herbivores (obviously). You should be able to give the hatchling a few stacks of berries and forget about it.
I hope this guide helped someone today. If you liked, please consider sharing it with friends!

If you get in a fight with a couple of trikes, you'll see their head is adorned with 3 spikes, but there's no need to fear, just attack from the rear whilst using a really long pike.
I just killed a Rex with this guy he's a absolute war machine
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.
Yall told me and I didnt listen. Note to self, leave the damn eggs alone!
Make a trap get tranqs shoot it lol it’s simple or even use trees to trap
DON'T STEAL A TRIKE EGG!!!!! I learnt it the hard way.
List :15tranq arrows,and a lot of berries
How to tame
1: bola your friend when he isn’t looking
2: hit the trike
3: stand behind the friend
3A: Watch him kill your friend
4: hit the trike with tranqs until it falls
Make sure you don't shoot it in the head, it has a reduced torpidity output so it costs a lot more arrows/stone to knock it out.
Best creature in ark
The trike is really easy to tame and find, in fact after 2 hours of reading wiki it was my first dino. Not dodo, not parasaur, not dilo, not moschops(I’m in mobile moschops are useless)
As a early tame it is awesome as it is quite fast and has amazing damage. It is quite tanky and harvests a lot of berries.
Now for uses:
Transportation: a strong & moderately fast mount that provides food and materials on the way
Berry: farms way way more than parasaur or iguano, and faster than anky stego.
Turret soaker: the dmg reduction on head is amazing.
In conclusion in the early game 2nd best tame after moschops
**Killing it without using a weapon**
1️⃣ Build a “wooden spikewall”.
2️⃣ Find and hit to lure your dino in to the trap.
3️⃣ It will unalive it self by trying to catch you through the spikewall
They are easy first get slow level if you are start game. Preferably a lvl1 to a lvl 10. Then knock it out with a slingshot or tranqs. I run in circles and knock it out. After that let starve for 3-5 minutes then feed green kibble ,crops , or mejos. After that give either narco berries or narcotics. Then you got a trike.
On mobile, there is a glitch where when you put carrots and mejoberries in its inventory it will take one second between taming intervals.
