Tips & Strategies

Don't try to tame them when in a pack. They will gang up on you. When your a low level get on a rock out of their range with a slingshot.
Use your trike to gather near the swamp for the most resources. Use the rare flowers and mushrooms to eat, same as cooked meat but doesn't spoil. Also, by the swamp you will collect X-Plant seeds.

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.
I found my trike stuck between trees so tamed him easily but if ur trike isnt stuck u will need a:atleast 15 tranq arrows, a trap that works, and not as much berries as u think cause I tamed mine with like 50 berries and thats all u need to know
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.
In Soviet Russia trike tame u
For a low level you gotta need a bow make sure it doesn't have a pack beat it with a bow no need for some Arows u don't need em but it's for beginners so make sure that it's like lvl 3 or something hope it helps! Btw bows damage is 55
How to tame a high level trike early:
Make a 2x2 wooden trap with doorframes BUT WHILE LURING IT IN MAKE SURE IT DOESN'T CHARGE OR IT WILL BULLDOZE THE TRAP
Once it's trapped you can knock it out worry free, but be careful about using a slingshot as high level trikes can die from rocks
Secure the area and go on about your business because the tame will take a while and the trap will protect it
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).
Never slingshot or shoot tranq arrows at the trike’s head. They have extra protection there. aim for the body instead.
Pretty easy tame early on you don't even need a now all you need is to make a trap use 4 stone foundations 1 stone doorframe and put stone windowframes all around (2 high) the get ramps on a side punch the trike life it up the ramp and into the trap and smack it on the head with a club through the windowframe.
I think trikes give you more berries.up if you think to
