Thanks for these tips guys I got an trike and also use boomeranges if your in an map that has an desert biome or you can get sand if not just use tranq arrows and have good movement speed and a few narcoberries and like 2-3 stacks of mejoberries or even 4 stacks

Don't use trap. There is no way to get it out. Use tamed dinos to get in its way, don't worry it won't a track them. Then climb on a rock and tranq away.

Be carefull they have a lot of kockback

impossible to tame without getting them stuck tbh. later game a crossbow and arrows work great but early game u need them stuck otherwise you will run out. their torpor drain is overtuned for an early mount

One doesn’t come at you actually when you steal the egg multiple come at you throwing the egg out of your inventory won’t work

I took this things egg and it chased me for an HOUR… A LITERAL HOUR!

hit it and do absolutely nothing

Trap it with stone with a ramp and use a narcotic bow and arrow

These guys are POWERFUL. A FREAKING SPINO RAN AWAY FROM A TRIKEEEEEE. Also climb up on rock and use slingshot for low levels and tranq arrows for high levels also dont shoot the head it gets less damage there.

i found out that i can do the the dash attack and get a crazy amount of thatch and wood

like in 5m i got 4000 thatch and 700 wood

very good for early game

Do they share a special bond with dodos or what??? Because when I attack dodos in front if trike he attacks me!! And this happened multiple times... Anyone else???

To tame or knock out a trike I recommend you just find one and hop on a rock that is bigger than the trike and start using tranquil arrows or tranq darts

To tame a trike, you should make sure they are far away from your weak dinos and base or it's will be a disaster. I recommend using tranq arrow,it's the safest way. But if you are desperate, you can use a slingshot which have worse accuracy. Stand on a high ground where the trike can't get you then lure it beneath you, make sure to shoot it's limbs and not the head. You can also make a trap but it's not necessary for low level trikes. Feed it mejoberry, use nacrotic or Bio Toxin when it's torpor is low. Wait a little bit and boom,you got you first trike

To easily tame a trike get tranq arrows and run while shooting it until it falls asleep use simple cobble for fast and use berries for slow

How to tame trike:

Materials:

100 tranq arrows

Safari experience in taming

A crossbow

A HIGH LEVEL trike low lv has low stam and low health

How to tame:

1. Find a steep rock. I mean really steep and really tall. Trikes defy gravity.

2. Shoot its body not head.

3. Stop it from going into water.

Use berries to tame. Mejos for taming and narcoberries for keeping down.

Uses:

Turret soaker. It has head on reduction.

Defense: huge AOE and great dmg

Travel: Charges fast. Carries lots of stuff too.

Harvest: Charge for wood and a lot of thatch. Primary attack for berries.

Boss dino ARK ASCENDED!: with asa melee headshots, they get minimal dmg while having good dps and knockback. Do not try in Evolved or mobile.

Enjoy your trike!

Trike is a good starter dino.You can kill enemies with him very fast and u can farm berries like nothing.

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

Alot of people are saying to trap them but its a bit more simpler than that. If you want to tame one then you should craft a slingshot and then find a lonely trike (If you try to tame one when there is two both will attack) then slingshot him in the body. To not get flung by them run round in circles, they are very slow but can launch you.

To Tame Tricerotops :

1)Climb on a high rock.

2)40 - 50 stones needed and 2 slingshot.

3)Shoot with sling shot.

4)Feed 100 berries.

5)Cry in sadness that you haven't reached level 17.

In case you have difficulty with killing trikes, and you have leveled up to the point of firearms such as the shotgun, here is my advice.:

First of all, Triceratops have resistance to damage for their head, but nowhere else on the body, so if one is charging you, you can shoot it in the leg for massive damage.

Second of all, before engaging, move the the side of the trike, load your shotgun fully, and then shoot it twice in quick succession in the chest with the shotgun, followed up by a longneck rifle shot as well. Try to keep to its side profile so that it cannot attack you, but you can attack its unarmored spots.

Third of all, keep a large distance between you and it so that it cannot easily charge you and stun you, and so you can avoid the strike if it attempts to do so.
