What are tips for triceratops? Tips and strategies for triceratops in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
A lvl 20 trike can kill anything when your on the saddle if your not riding it then a lvl 1 raptor will be able to kill it put a saddle go to an alpha or rex spino and the trike will be able to obliterate it lvl melee and health to get the most powerful trike my trike tri horn can kill megs underwater I don’t what’s going on but trikes are underrated
Step 1: get 10 or more tranquilizer arrows step 2: go on a tall rock so it can’t hurt you step 3: shoot it at the body WARNING DON’T DO IT AT THE HEAD OR YOUR JUST WASTING YOUR ARROW step 4 give it narcotics and berries BOOM you tamed a trike up = 1 noob turning into a pro
If you see egg dont pick up unless you want to die and they will guard the body

The best way to knock trikes out is with tranq arrows and the best way to kill them is with wooden spikes.
Things to remember about the Trike:
-Do not pick up it's egg (or any other dino's egg if the parent is near)
-Do not aim for the head, aim for the body
-Tranq Arrows seem to work better than slingshots (but if you want to use slingshots, be sure to bring tons of stone)
Up this so beginners like me can see too!!
So I’m totally new on this game. No idea what to do and how to survive, also died a lot but taming a trike is one of my biggest goal since it’s my favorite dinosaur and of course it’s like a freaking tank. So I watched on YouTube and read some here too and most of the time it suggests to make alot of effort so I did my own way. This is how I did:
Needs:
Narcotics (MINIMUM OF 10)
Amarberry (ATLEAST A 100 TO BE SURE)
Bow and Arrow (Only shoot twice)
Slingshot
Club
How:
So first of I’ll find myself a Trike. Not sure if this is gonna work on much more higher and stronger level trikes but I tamed a level 10. After I have my eyes on my target I set myself on a much more higher ground like a rock so a trike can’t reach me. If all set shoot the trike twice until its life is depleted (dont use anymore since they might die) after that switch to your slingshot and just throw some rocks on it until it has little more life (keep this in mind that you need to beat it carefully). Trike’s are stubborn they will rather die than to be tamed so they might run even though they are close to death so let them run and regenerate some health then just hit them with a club until it will fall unconscious. Put all the amarberry on its inventory and watch out for the unconscious bar so use narcostics to fill it in. This way you can just watch it be tamed. In my experience it took overnight to be tamed since each amarberry gives 2-4% so be ready get your meat and campfire to set on besides your newly tank:)
Very easy tame. Stand on a large stone and shoot stone or tranquilizer arrows.
Don’t mess with a group or you go bye bye
I would say to get tranq darts and stand on top of a rock and shoot down on it. If you are a early beginner this a good tactic. 🦖
Shoot at the belly not the head where there is extra protection and don’t make that mistake like I did and it took me 30 minutes to knock it out
The best way for me to do it right now is with bow and arrow or slingshot
How to tame a trike first get some knockout arrows 2 then find a trike 3 build a trap or get where you can’t get you 4 shoot arrows at trike and feed him or her berries 5 you got a trike
I JUST KILLED 2 REXS WITH THIS WAR MACHINE
This is my low level way to tame a trike:
1) get a slingshot, the resources to repair it, mejoberries, narcoberries, and a bunch of rocks (I prefer at least 200)
2) go to a beach with one and find a large rock he can’t climb (make sure it is very steep)
3) shoot him anywhere but the head (he won’t get knocked out if you shoot him in the head) while on the rock
4) when he is knocked out, give him the mejoberries and narco berries and let him eat (do not force feed him unless he is running out of torpor then you can feed him the narcoberries)
Boom you got a trike
Don’t tranq them out when there getting ready to charge or the will be stuck for ever and the will just keep getting ready to charge I just found this bug so I don’t know if there’s a way to fix it but be careful when taming a trike
(mobile) Kinda weird position in game. It's supposed to be an "early game" tame as well as a "quick and easy" one. But realistically it's...just not. It doesn't get caught by bola, it has damage resistance on the head, and it can charge up to a survivor very easily. (compared to the likes of turtles and dilos.) I would recommend just leaving them alone until you unlock tranq arrows, as clubs and slingshots take just too much time for it to be rewarding.
