[@field8669]

Something I learnt, you don't need to hold the food while it eats it for the bar to go up. If you wanna tame it without a trap, you just have to drag the food as close as you can to it then drop it and run when it starts sniffing. I don't recommend this this though because it constantly attacks other creatures and sometimes tricks you into thinking it's after the food you dropped but it's really just after another dino.

[@Nutz2002]

pro tip right here!

[@aliciagrey4382]

I actually don’t tame them with a trap and instead kill everything in the area and make a pen for my cryosick diplos and then kill a baby Rex and walk up in full ghille and hand feed it. I’ve never died doing it that way. It’s even easier if you have a sanguine elixir.

[@mistere5857]

I dont think so. I tried this and it constantly ran after me or ignored me altogether leaving the dead dino on the ground.

[@CrustyLiquid]

no it doesn’t trick you it does a short roar and will run much faster if its actually aggroed while it will sniff and slowly walk over if it wants the corpse

[@Zaid11328]

Something I learnt is that the bigger isn’t necessarily better as if u have a army of dilos to dodos it can prove much more effective than one bronto

[@Nutz2002]

very true, although it might take longer!

​@@pietmulli8321no, its numbers that count not big dino

[@gurgleblaster2282]

​@alejandronero4368 no because dinos attacks are AOE so if you throw 100 dilos at a Rex they all die in one hit. Rather certain dinos have an advantage for swarming. But this is not universal.

I found a 135 one in Ragnarok and I was so excited. You have no idea about the terror I felt walking up to it with a dead Ovis on my shoulder and see it sniffing, then walking towards me.
I didn't manage to tame it, the taming percentage went down faster than I could gather corpses, and the corpses I started piling before feeding them to the Carcha weren't nearly enough before the entire plains was empty.
A sad day. I'll get my Carcha soon enough, I'll just have to find a breeding pair of rexes first :)

[@asayai]

Tamed 2 on Fjordur recently but somehow they both managed to get out of the trap while it being fully secured.
Lured the first one into a cliff then put a new trap on (which worked).
Lured the 2nd to my Basilisk trap thingy on the volcano and built behemoth gates so it cant get away
(Which also worked).
But the must bs thing about the tame is the smelling mechanic because i can wait however long and it wont eat the trikes and stegos, yo i have to drag new ones over to that place with my lightning wyvern and start all over again

[@alexithymia6288]

If anything, and I mean anything, does any sort of damage to the Carch while you're running around eating stuff with it, you will lose taming effectiveness. It'd be a good idea to queue up a bunch of rex, trike, or galli eggs to hatch for that part of the taming process.

[@grimsgraveyard3598]

This trap method is literally the meta for years now lol.

[@blavena]

Nothing new for me, but I liked for the editing, and the name of the dino

[@Spicex6]

Step 1: find a carcharodontosaurus

[@roronoazoroelmejorespadach3489]

ok this might be too late but here's how someone that has been one month in ark does it consistently, I use baby diplo or baby spino wich are easier to tame as rexes for a early carcha, traps bug them so they sometimes don't ear when trapped, solution is too go out of render and if your lucky enough he will bug out of the trap and ruin your trap, so they way I do it is way easier, us a ghillie suit drag the Dino to him when not on rage let him get the sniff animation once he is going towards you drop the body and he will eat it, make sure that when you ride it you have food and water, you don't want to die of starvation due to cold, remember you might die once you tame him so make sure you have a flier at your base too

[@slavsamulaattori998]

while riding the dino in the taming process, keep in mind that it is better to go for quantity over quality or just something that wont attack back as getting hit while riding it will reduce your taming effectivenes

[@mortesow3209]

It's better to use stone gates because they are much cheaper and you can still easily get his trust before he destroys gates

[@XeroSuniYoutube]

I just call it Carchar. [Car-Char] even though it doesn't sound like what the dino's name is, its better then trying to pronounce the whole thing lol

Good tip if you can't say it's name then you can just say the carchar, like car-car

Its even faster if you tame brontos and unclaim them and kill them

hmmm hadn't thought of this before! Although you would probably have to tame a low level bronto, or have taming speeds really high

[@fireirisdoesart]

Just to help anyone that gets the trap bug where it will either flee until freed or only attack the trap, if u just walk rlly far away and then drag it a dead rex baby and run for your life that works pretty much 100% of the time, at least for me tho the server I play on has higher taming rates

[@MyDragon316]

In other words, to tame this massive beast, ye gotta go on a massive kill and sacrifice spree, first time I’ve seen this kinda tame in Ark, as of late, it’s definitely something DIFFERENT, as opposed to the old; KO, drug up, and feed.

[@jstylin2]

The last step, send our baby rexs and unclaim them so the charch can kill them. If you group them up its bassicly an instant tame

[@williamafton348]

Better method.
Get a baby Rex, cryopod it, approach a Wild Carcharodontosaurus, sacrifice it to the Carcharodontosaurus in the name of the blood gods, Carcharodontosaurus eats the flesh of the innocent, trust meter instantly fills, have sanguine elixir from doing batty things with bat bois, ride around on the Carcharodontosaurus eating everything in sight, use sanguine elixir to speed it up, have spare baby Rex to sacrifice just in case. No traps or gates needed, no glitches where the Carcharodontosaurus refuses to eat in the trap.

Honestly you don’t need a trap just strap on some gillie walk crouched with your baby red and it’s rideable. I also suggest bringing a sanguine potion so you can tame it on one ride.

[@Demon-qc1ye]

Wait, that thing is fking massive.
When I saw people saying it could take on gigas, I thought they were memeing.
I hadn’t seen one in any gameplay so I thought it was about the size of maybe an allo or something, didn’t expect it to be bigger than a rex.

[@TheVoidOfHalo]

Well, Giganotosaurus and Carcharodontosaurus were distant relatives when they were alive, so that's why they are so large.

[@nikolajkvistpedersen5151]

It's not fool-proof, the Carcha can get aggro'd on the trap and refuse to eat the dino you're dragging. No trap and clear the area, so it can't aggro to anything 👍

What is the recommended weight upgrade to carry dead dinos. I’m planing to tame Trikes and use them as food.

[@Nutz2002]

the dino's carry weight doesn't change the taming speed! The drag weight changes it. Each dino comes with its own drag weight, so a trike might be 150, where a rex is 175, the higher that number the faster it will tame. You can find more in depth info on the ark wiki!

[@ineedname497]

i dont use a trap i just find a wild one and feed it 1 baby rex

If the the carcha kills a wild creature this means it will NOT eat any dragged food for 10 seconds after it killed the wild dino, it will try to kill you instead.

no unlike other dino's the carchar's taming rate is based on drag weight. So basically the bigger the dino is, the faster it will tame.

[@DarthJar_Jar]

An even better, faster, and more efficient way to tame these amazing beasts-
1. Get 2 dinos with high drag weight, (spinos, rexes/tek rexes, etc)
2. Breed them
3. Bring the babies to where the carcha is
4. Kill the baby
5. Drag the baby to the carcha until it starts sniffing the air
6. Drop the body and run like hell, (but not too far away that you can't see the circle above the carcha)
7. If there's a green circle above it's head, hop on it, eat some rare flowers, and go eat stuff.

[@Butter1510]

No because it gets to 100 bloodrage and knocks you off before it tames

[@WhoAmI5153_]

It's not by weight someone actually found out that it's determined by the health of a dino so get a gasbag or diplo and just feast

[@dillongage]

Be very careful with where you place that trap btw. Accidentally put one on a slight slope once and the giga was able to magically levitate its way right out of the trap using nothing but the tip of one claw and sheer force of will.
It did NOT end well. Lots of dead tribe mates and even more scattering into the forest to take their chances with the sabers and raptors.
