More Unicorn Stories Tips
A while ago, I remember exploring around on a raft in the southeast corner of the map where there are lots of rivers. (Rivers usually mean spinos, especially when going east) I play on mobile, and I was the biggest wimp ever when it came to facing any threats bigger than a dilo or leaving my thatch house and 30 dodos, so this was a big step for me; (I live in the southwest corner of the map by red obelisk) but I was desperate for an equus. When looking, I found a pretty looking whiteish one and I fell in love with it. But then I realized it was a unicorn! I was so amazed but the area was far too dangerous for me to attempt taming it. With some creatures, if you get them onto your raft and sail over water that is too deep for it to swim in, it will usually freeze and stay on your raft. But unfortunately that is not the case for equus/unicorns. Trying this only brought the unicorn closer and closer to a spino that was only meters away. As you might have guessed, the unicorn trotted right up to it, and it killed the unicorn in two swipes and immediately aggroed onto my raft. I was absolutely horrified so I logged off, but I knew I couldn’t leave like that forever and had to save myself and my beloved raft; so I hopped back on and managed to get it distracted by some stegos that spawned in and managed to escape with my life. I did end up taming my first equus, but that’s a different story.(still have my raft to this day!) I have found out that they can only be tamed using griffin kibble, and plan on taming a griffin soon (once my allos actually start laying eggs, I’ve already had them for over a week and I’ve gotten absolutely nothing from 2 females.) Wish me luck on that. I have also recently gotten god console and have gotten revenge on the spino. I have found my unicorn for the 2nd time while exploring on my argy. I rescued it from some titanoboas and carried it back home and into a pen. #Holding it hostage until I get a griffin pair! Anyways, I just felt quite lucky that I managed to find it again and that I had my argy with me. Thanks for reading!
It really really sucks for mobile users that the only way of taming a unicorn is to use griffin kibble. I was farming xp by collecting explorer notes when I hear a sparkle I saw a unicorn!! My first time seeing a unicorn. I got my argy and took it back to base I mad a pen for it and kept it in there. When I looked on Dododex it says you need griffin kibble !!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Now what should I do to this unicorn? The devs must really fix this. At least let mobile users use rocarrots to tame them up. Like seriously this is messed up
I’m on mobile trying to get my first equus, then suddenly I see a pretty white one and realize it’s a unicorn— only problem was, I’m still in my beach bob “phase” and was traveling around by raft in spino central. As you might have guessed, it trotted right up to the spino and got two-tapped. Then the spino started attacking my raft (I kind of knew they did that but was still unsure as when I looked it up to confirm, it said they wouldn’t.) I logged and managed to distract it with some nearby stegos when I rejoined and made a lucky escape. So now I’m finding out they can’t even be tamed with rockarots and I have no idea how I’ll find griffins or the new unicorn.
So I was heading to the cave in the middle of the island. On my way, I saw a unicorn for the first time. Took my argy and put it in a pen at my base. (Note I’m on mobile) I took rockarrots and tried to take the thing... nothing. The devs NEED TO FIX THIS. It’s insane how mobile players HAVE to use Griffin kibble, while everyone else can just use rockarrots. Please up for the devs to see.
