Taming & KO Tips
How do I tame a triceratops? Tips and strategies on taming and knocking out a triceratops.
You can trap them between 2 trees they Will get stuck and you can Just shoot it with trank arrows.
Guys it’s easy no trap needed if you are taming a low level and are too lazy to build a trap just tame a level 3 or 5 it will be down with tranq arrows in like 10 secs or 20 if you don’t have strategy and it eats berry’s
Headshots on trike is really everything that isn't the head. This is because it's head is a shield. If it is charging then arm for the legs that how I got my level ten with 13 arrows.
Don’t underestimate a solo Trike for it may scream its lungs out and four more Trike will reveal themselves from God-Knows-Where. Make sure the coast is clear!!
You should find a rock and run around it while you shoot the trike, with this method you can easily knock it out with a slingshot
You can make a trap then knock it out with tranq arrows. They are great beginner tames but mine always disappear or die. 😱😱😱
Little tip if your low level don’t hit a trike and run they will catch you
You can get this really early on. Get a sling with like 100 rocks and stand on a big stone where the trike can’t get up and just let loose and boom, you got yourself an easily tamed trike early on!
All you need is the high ground (they can clime so choose your spot wisely) half a dozen tranq arrows (or more depending on the lvl) ana a butt load of berries!
P.S. use the starving technique!!!
This is easy tame all u need to have is a turtle dino that has 2k and up hp(mine id already 4k) then attack it using turtle first(on passive, so it will agro to turtle and it won't attack back, if the trike will be unconscious it won't continue to attack it might kill trike) then shoot tranq or spam club to his body, then boom u have a new friend. Hope this helps
The Trike
When tranking don't shoot its head it has more protection there u can't bola it soo maybe build a trap. If u shoot it the trikes near by will be chasing u too so craft extra tranks I shoot from on top of a rock, where a shield and dont stay in a cliff or in water cuz when they attack even when wearing a shield u will be pushed away he he he he
Good luck 🤞!

Ok so I have a ton of these because I use this method. You get tranq arrows in a bow or crossbow. Probably about 10 to 20. You get on a rock nearby that they can’t hit you on then shoot it’s body when it starts to Ron I shoot it 1 or 2 more times
Dododex said it’ll take 38 savoroot to tame a lvl 40. It only took me 15 savoroot.
Well it took me 5 HOURS ,I managed to knock out a 180 trike without a TRAP ,I don’t know if you know how hard this is it is ridiculously hard
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
To tame:
Materials: 8 Wooden fence foundations, 8 wood door frames, slingshot, mejoberries, simple bed.
Next lay down the bed and go to sleep for 7 hours. (Only works in single player)
1. Lay the fence foundations down in a 2x2 grid and put dirt frames on every one but the two facing the trike. 2. Hit the trike and lead it through the trap. 3. Lay down the two final floor frames and start slingshotting it’s body. 4. Due to sleeping the food bar should be at zero put the berries in and it should tame almost immediately.
Craft bow and tranq arrows (narcotic+arrow) about 8
Find a trike near accessible rocks (not too accessible)
Shoot, shoot, shoot until unconscious
Put berries, kibble, crops, or whatever else you can use for taming
Wait, and check inventory once in a while
You’ve got a powerful rhino with 3 horns and protection
Get a primitive crossbow and 3 traq arrows and get on a rock and fire put berrys in and your good
This is how you tame it. Trap it with walls and make it unconscious. If you don’t have any walls go on a huge rock and spam it with a slingshot till unconcious.
In order to tame a trike use tranq arrows but for beginners use a slingshot so .step 1 shoot it .step 2 go on top of a rock or something then. Step 3 shoot it until it runs away then.step 4 club it down
