Tips & Strategies

If you are a new player, try not to provoke them. I have ended up hitting trikes when using a hatchet or pickaxe on resources and ended up dead because of it. If you attack it, it will constantly try to make sure its head is facing you, preventing you from doing significant damage. It's best to use a bulky mount or tranq arrows to kill it, but if you are looking for keratin, try carbonemys instead. They are far easier to kill.

It's a chill dino and doesn't get mad if you get too close but whatever you do, DO NOT pick up a trice's egg, or he will cha cha real smooth you out of existence ๐โจ
Very very easy tame. Go on top of a rock, shoot it with slingshot or tranq arrow.
If u just started, do NOT pick its egg up. If u do, try not to run to ur base. Trust me i learned it the hard way.
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.
Yall told me and I didnt listen. Note to self, leave the damn eggs alone!
DON'T STEAL A TRIKE EGG!!!!! I learnt it the hard way.
Hear me Out
That thing is a beast at early game with enough level (50-80) it can easily take out raptors,carnos,alpha raptors and even rexes (lvl30-45), because of the high health and the OP knockback, if youโre hitting at the exact right time raptors wonโt even hit you they just canโt . Be careful when facing theris tho that could end pretty bad for you and your trike
If you wana live, try not to pick up a egg from one of these guys. Its a reck dude. By the way, do NOT go to ur base/house while one of them is chasing u. It WILL destroy itโฆ. Youโll thank me later ;)
Do not hit its crest as it will not do damage use a rifle or bow to shoot it from above or from behind do not let it hit you with its charge attack
I was walking until I saw a trike until I hit it and I forgot there was a trike near him and I runned and died over and over so I decided to realese my tames and 2v5 it we lost. My parasaur only survive Rip 4 tames:(
What ever you do don't hurt it with any weapon's except for a trankulisor. I learned that the hardest way.
