I got two of em and I thought they were so hard to tame lol

I have a better idea of a trap. Stone foundation and wall (you can do metal and TEK if you want) — (_____) ⬅️trike —

Use toxic trank arrows (and don't aim for the head)

If you don't find a cliff that you can use make a trap

Ingredients for trap:

2- wood floor

8- wood gate ways

2- wood ramps

(If it's lv 120 or 120+ get more arrows then recommended)

For level 9 people I’ve got a trap that is cheap and works.

Place two thatch foundations next to each other with the longer side pointing toward the trike

[_]. (____)<—— trike

Like this

Then place a wall opposite the trike in the opposite long side and put a wall at the end

Like this (it’s hard to draw diagrams on this but the blocks are foundations and the other extra lines not touching the line in the middle of the brackets are walls.

Go up to the trike with the slingshot and lead it then jump through the gap leading of of the foundation so the trike will get stuck in it. Shoot till knocked, if it does escape run around the trap and trap it again.

P.S this only works if you don’t activate it’s charge

You can trap them between 2 trees they Will get stuck and you can Just shoot it with trank arrows.

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 you’re hitting at the exact right time raptors won’t even hit you they just can’t . Be careful when facing theris tho that could end pretty bad for you and your trike

A small herd with good lv can easily kill trexs

Step 1 get tranqs step 2 shoot it with tranqs step 3 knock it out step 4 put berrys in inventory step 5 wait step six YOU HAVE IT

I was happy player with some dinosaur. But then this thing had come. U know i was using dilophosaur as hide, meat and keratin farm. But then 2 of them attacked trike they were fighting bit nothing worked. I took my spears and 2 parasaur’s to try kill that trike and save my boys. I got killed. Dinos got killed. THIS THING IS PURE EVIL! DONT ATTACK THEM IF YOU DONT HAVE WHOLE ARMY! thank u for reading. Up to pay respect to: Hunter, Venom, Storm and Bolt. I will never forget their fierce fight.

The ston piller and ladder trick will works for most dinos. Just put 10 stone piller in height and climb with ladder in range of dino where you can shoot him. If you are short of stones to build pillers you can also make less but make sure dino is not able to reach you at that height. You know what to do if this is helpful. ∆∆∆

WHERE I LIVE TRIKE TAME U yep like that yep

Be carefup, if you attack one then all of the other ones nearby will attack you, I accidentally got chased by there's at a time and then wasted all my tranq arrows on the low level ones🤣🤣🤣

You can get up on a wild trikes back and get protection from other creatures

With the tlc these are (in my opinion) the best at getting thatch (while charging). Charge through only 3 redwood trees and youll have thousands of thatch.

Thanks to the new charge ability, it can one shot a whole forest in its path, and will get about 3000 thatch from one charge

And to nock it out use a long neck riffle put 15 darts it should fall asleep quicker

So far I've only seen people suggesting knock out methods that either don't often work or just take more resources and time than is necessary....

I tamed a lv 270 Trike with my method and it was super easy and afterwards it was lv 400+ and is the main Dino I take with me when I wander and I put ALL stats into HP, and Attack. Putting some into stamina til you have around 1k stamina isn't a bad idea as that allows you to last through long fights that require you to rapid attack the entire time.

Easy and high lv Trike method that works on ALL lv Trikes.

Step 1. Craft around 200 tranq arrows to allow for mistakes.

Step 2. Bring 1 crossbow and 2 bows just in case something unexpected happens.

Step 3. Stand as far away as possible while still being able to land a shot so you can get a head start.

Step 4, shoot and run while not looking back for like 7 seconds, then turn around and fire your bow while walking backwards, the bow allows for faster firing but provides less Torpor than the Crossbow unless it's an ascendant bow. When it gets within say 10 feet of you turn around and run. Rinse and repeat til knocked out. Takes like 2 minutes.

The slow, hard, time consuming method..... Only effectively works for low lv Trikes between lv 1and lv 30 due to the large amount of stones needed. For Reference you will want around 250-300 stone and 3-5 slingshots for a lv 40.

Step 1. Make your house out of wood or stone, wood is easier to do early on.

Step 2. Leave 1 wall off so that you can fire your slingshot from inside the safety of your home.

Step 3. Find a low lv Trike no higher than lv 40 if you want an effective tame that doesn't take all day in game to knock out.

Step 4. Stand at max range from Trike since you are likely a super low lv and very slow with limited stamina.

Step 5. Land 1 shot with the slingshot, turn and run full speed towards your house. Only look back at your own risk if you think he or she is no longer chasing you or is somehow stuck. Don't attempt to climb rocks as any rock you can jump onto from the ground lv they are able run straight up and over.

Step 6. Remember that wall I told you to leave off your house?? Run straight towards it and jump to enter your house through that.

Step 7. Stand close enough that it stays aggro to you but far enough back where it can't attack you.

Step 8. Dinos are sneaky in ARK. It will act like it's getting close to unconscious several times, do not think it's running away and leave the safety of your house unless it just keeps going the other way without turning around at you. To prevent it from aggroing onto something else or not coming back just step into the door like area without dropping to the ground while firing off shots at its "retreating form" unless close to unconscious it will turn back and charge at you.

Basically the only good garunteed way to tame a Trike before you get Tranq arrows and a bow.

Trikes have great good knock back, so long as you take pauses between hits, you can regenerate stamina. Also, if you need to, you can tank some hits if you need to. My trike was able to fend off some accidentally attacked pachytherium, and he still lives to this day. This can apply for creatures like titanoboa and raptors, so it’s a handy trait if you need to.

They are very good I went on an xp run with one of these and killed 4 sacros 7 raptors 5 argys 2 spinos 2 rexes and 3 carnos as well as some other things I recommend upping stamina hp and attack

This dino is a really helpful starter tame! Since they have the knockback effect, you can kill a therizino with them to protect your base :) I tamed one and it was really helpful! It helped me get rid of this pesky therizinosaur that was roaming really close to my very first/starting base!
