ARK: Survival Evolved Companion
Tips & Strategies
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.
More Triceratops Utility Tips
Utility Roles for Trike:
1. Tank. When faced with head on damage, they have a damage reduction. Be sure to pair with mate for extra damage resistance (level Health).
2. Short Range Scout. The Trike is not very fast, but again, due to the damage resistance it has (and it's just general beefiness), it can serve as a good scout for early game. Much better than the Para in that regard (level Health, Stam, and Movement Speed).
3. Harvester. This boi can collect quite a decent amount of wood and fiber, much more than you can by hand. Use with Charge attack for extra resources! (level Weight and Stamina).
4. Defender. Use him to defend your base and smaller tames. Really the only early game threat a Trike can't handle are alphas and the occasional Theri. But trust me, I've seen one of these things face down a Sarco and live (level Health and Melee Damage)

With the new TLC, it has OUTSTANDING thatch collecting ( 1000 in 4 trees with a max charge. )
If the triceratops head is glowing that means there is a large predator nearby
If you ever catch these guys in the wild and wonder why their heads are glowing red, you should probably run because thereβs a Rex/Spino in the area.
I can not stress enough to my friends how useful the trike is. Early game it makes a great pack animal. Late game in groups of three or four it can be used as a decent battle mount. Taming a trike early on can be a great way to start a large base and keep you well fed with berries.
I had a trick and I named it rody..but after a few months I got a higher level trick and than I thought of unclaiming rody....GOODBYE RODY ILL MISS YOU BECASUE YOU WERE THE BEST STARTER I EVER HAD IN MY LIFE. (Also dinos die after unclaiming them..) UP THIS FOR RODYππππ’
This is so underrated tamed a 125 and then quickly killed an argy and a carno at the same time just be sure to level health and melee up so the noobs know.
This(in my opinion) is the best at gathering thatch because you can use its charge attack and line up a bunch of of trees it charges them and gives you thousands of thatch in a matter of 10-15 seconds, then just wait for stamina to regenerate and rinse and repeat
Wild trikes heads glow red when a spino giga or rex is near
