Great Work! Did you know that you can add a few fence foundations to align the stone pillar in the same place everytime, if you like, I can try to explain its not too hard, but it makes the positioning consistent.
With the net projectile addition you can build the cross, build the back pillars, lure the crab in and then build the pillars to trap it in defeating the need for ramps.
@@joenield2463how is that weird? That's the first official map they are in. It would be quite normal for most people to do it here; plus any other map they are on. So it would never be weird.
Thank you!! I tried some other traps but I got so confused. This one was easy, simple and I managed to get a few karkinos. Your videos are always my go to with Ark
LoL, love the dad joke about it being crabby. Priceless 😂. Please keep these vids up. I'm starting new on crystal isles and your gryphon trap worked really well. I'm working on using your rock golem trap next and then this one or one of my own seeing this is more resource effective but I'm not to concerned about resources and more about comfort in taming. Anyways, love the videos man. I really appreciate how much effort you put in to these. You don't just spit out random nonsense like most other channels that cover ark. Your channel is definitely a gem in the rough.
Hey Steve, I just wanted to thank you for this video! This trap worked on my first try and I just tamed my first Karkinos! Again thanks, and keep up the awesome work!
Still works great as of 2023. I did have a little trouble getting thr crab up ramp bc my trap may have been uneven but i replaced the triangle roofs with stone stairs and it worked perfect
Built it too close and he was able to hit me at first… then I remembered there’s net guns now and got it done in no time👍🏼 thanks for all the helpful vids
I'm sitting listening intently as Steve says, "Be careful with you karkinos after you tame it" oh, ok, why's that Steve? "Because he might be a bit 'Crabby'*maniacal laughter*" as my jaw drops in utter bewilderment.
I know I'm late to the game here, but you nailed it again Steve. Found a lovely blue one in that cave with the light creatures on Fjordur. Trap worked first time, though my ladder went on backwards.
To give another tip.. if you damage the Karkinos to much use a snow owl to heal it back to 100% then continue to knock it down. This trap is awesome by the way. But if you damage it to much heal it with your owl. Preferable do this with 2 persons
This trap worked for me, took a few tries to get one in but it worked. Just have to make sure they are dead on center coming into the trap. Thanks for the video!
First try me and my brother got both killed by the Karkinos that managed to escape (I made bad trap) and after months from that I finally got one, thanks for the very good trap! Is so simple i just needed to watch 2 times the video for remember it in game!
Edit : Just made another save file in Aberration ( my truly favorite map and the most full of LAG) and tamed other 2 and now thanks to mods i'm *M U T A T I N G* THEM!
How did you get the stone ceilings to place? Mine says must have a stone foundation nearby to place, but there is a stone foundation under the double doorways
@@Dat_boi69 Easy mistake to make. Doesn't make you an idiot :) A thing about building that is good to know is that as long as there are foundations on the ground beneath where you are building you can build pretty high up. so you can build a foundation on the ground and then you can make a bridge far above the foundation. Pretty weird mechanic, but that's how they work.
Did WC modify the components? My Stone Triangular ceiling does not sit diagonally on this, and also refuses to place if I don't have a "nearby foundation"
Not sure what im doing wrong, but as far as im aware I have it buitl exactly like you.. The karkinos refuses to go up the ramps, no matter what I do. Any ideas?
@@tommyyt9179 I'll keep this in mind. I tamed a 148 by breaking everything in the back and running in to quick place it while it's inside. Works but risky
by the way I did get the trap to work, so thank you! I did have a lot of trouble angling the stone roof down instead of up, I had to tear most of the trap down several times until it worked.
Now with the net projectile and the harpoon launcher you can just net them, place a foundation infront of their head while their netted and put a canon down and 1 hit KO them (Ik this vid was made before the net projectile existed)
You could place foundations 4x4so that the corner faces the catapult. Then you can put the fence foundations in the same direction as you have them here, and since foundations try to snap together, itll give you alittle leeway with how flat the ground is
Hey Steve, fantastic trap design I have my own server and max level I have it set to is 240... Just tamed two 232 Karkinos using this method. Great job as always ✌️

Lmao I laughed way to hard when he said: “be careful when he wakes up, he might be a bit crabby” 😂
Same
Just followed your direction and made this trap on my Aberration map. Thank you! That was fast and easy, off to find a crab.
I'm gonna be doing the same on aberration in the next week or so
Weird literally doing this aberration 😂
Okay? This didn't need to be said. @John-xf9mc

"We're gonna build this five pillars high"
*Places four pillars*
Good job tho, thanks for the trap!
Did your taming work? I'm on primitive plus and the catapult doesn't work for me
@@Jneda360 The crab dies when I shoot it (no Prim+)
@@nnif4990 You have to shoot the body. If you shoot the legs it wont gain torpor, and will end up dying instead.
@@nnif4990 the middle/body is where you want to shoot its like a soft spot so if you shoot there it'll get it sleepy and get it knocked out
@@JuanWickJr Yeah I tried it like 6 times but it didn't work
Thank you!! I tried some other traps but I got so confused. This one was easy, simple and I managed to get a few karkinos. Your videos are always my go to with Ark
The dislike came from a karkinos 😂

weldone mate :)
That one dislike is a guy with the crabs. He can tell you more how to get them 😂
Still works great as of 2023. I did have a little trouble getting thr crab up ramp bc my trap may have been uneven but i replaced the triangle roofs with stone stairs and it worked perfect
Once again the almighty nooblets has saved the day! This trap works SOOOOOO much better than the old bear trap and dino gates I use to use before.
Finally tamed my first crab ever thanks to this
heyy steve thanks i am doing solo taming each creature...love this trap imma try it out now thanks for your vids
Simpler than what I use, and fewer resources, much the same principle, but I'll go with simpler with the same results any day. Great vids Steve.
Thank you so much Noobs your trap worked and my 140 Karkinos got 100% taming effectiveness your a real one 💪🏻
Built it too close and he was able to hit me at first… then I remembered there’s net guns now and got it done in no time👍🏼 thanks for all the helpful vids
Thanks very much I watch a lot of your ark videos, your voice makes it very easy to follow.
I'm sitting listening intently as Steve says, "Be careful with you karkinos after you tame it" oh, ok, why's that Steve? "Because he might be a bit 'Crabby'*maniacal laughter*" as my jaw drops in utter bewilderment.
P.s. I love your videos Steve, your hilarious. 😂
I know I'm late to the game here, but you nailed it again Steve. Found a lovely blue one in that cave with the light creatures on Fjordur. Trap worked first time, though my ladder went on backwards.
Thanks This helped a lot tamed a level 95 got 100 effectiveness and gained 45 levels good enough for me
Absolutely genious! Works perfect. Very good step by step explanation. Much better than all other guides. 👍😊

We’ve caught and tamed 6 with this trap so far.
This trap is awesome. Easy and quick to assemble
Wonderful guide. Worked like a charm. My aim didn't at first, so I'm waiting for an hour but that's on me. Trap was great.
Ik I’m a bit late but feed the crab a corpse to get its health back
This trap worked for me, took a few tries to get one in but it worked. Just have to make sure they are dead on center coming into the trap. Thanks for the video!
Great video, effective trap and pretty easy to setup
Perfect, down to the cheesy "crabby" joke at the end. Lol
nice one steve , now i can change my old behemoth gate trap🙃
I feel this so hard. It used to take me like an hour and a half to build my crab trap. This is infinitely better.
Same here, mine was a ring of gates with the tower in the center for the catapult. It worked most of the time but it was far from ideal.
Worked perfectly. Thank you nooblets!
Thanks! Tamed a beautiful pink 145 Karkinos and then trapped a 140 orange karkinos (fav colour), which died to my boulders. Good trap, 5/5.
Do fence foundations not connect like that anymore? For me they wont snap in a 45° angle
Had to stop by and say thanks. I live next to a spot where karkinos are everywhere so I’m glad i can farm them.
Thanks for this one, after an hour of trying finally trapped my first crab. She's at 95%, will be my first tamed karkinos
I’m here so late but still happy cause I tamed my first with this trap
Much appreciated👍
I built a very expensive one and it still got out easily so thanks for giving me this ine
Nicely done bro, another top quality trap video 😁😁
Been using this trap for a while and I love it now, use it to get loads of karkinos
Thanks for all of your vids, so helpful mate 👌🏼😊
Steve never stop being so ingenuitive I love it your traps are awesome
Worked like a charm. Thanks!
Trap worked perfectly thank you!
Thank you Steve, and this video is very helpful, because this is one of these tames I need to do. so thanks. cheers

I got my first KARKINOS with your trap. it works like a charm....
I tried this yesetrday and it works a treat with 100% taming effectiveness - many thanks!
The perfect trap! Tried others that seemed fine, just escaped. This works like a charm! Thank you!
How did you get the stone ceilings to place? Mine says must have a stone foundation nearby to place, but there is a stone foundation under the double doorways
NVM I'm an idiot I tried to use ceilings 😂

Just started playing for the first time on aberration, and this trap worked first try! Got me a 135 female as my first!, thanks so much 🙏
Oh my god, this just worked so wonderful! Thanks alot!
Taming my first crab to this, great stuff mate.
Is it just me or do y’all not have stone fence foundation
Great Trap, thank you VERY much. Easy to build and effective. Good job, thanks !
Love how the number of pillars changes half way through. "You will need 4 pillars." "We're going to build this 5 pillars high." Huh?
Did WC modify the components? My Stone Triangular ceiling does not sit diagonally on this, and also refuses to place if I don't have a "nearby foundation"
you have to use sloped roofs
Cheap, easy, super effective. Very nice.
Best trap i ever seen👍🏼
Can't you just use a cannon stryder or mek to knock this out?
i first saw him in the sea and he was so cool and now i finally have him
Amazing trap! Great work!
I love these videos! I can’t wait to see what you come up with for genesis golems!
I like this trap I’ll have to make this one next time I’m on valguero
Does not work on Xbox the triangle roofs
Very efficient and tamed one flawlessly, thank you 💪
And Steve you could put a large bear trap too so it won’t turn around.
can you use a rock elemental instead of a catapult?
Thanks for the video. I used this trap today and it worked great.
What ammo are you using?
cant wait to see the ASA version
Is there anyway to tame it without a trap
Thank you man. I love your videos!
Excellent practical trap.
How do i put triangle roofs like that
Worked as promised. Thanks.
Does it eat spoiled meat
So simple and works great!
"Hi guys. Steve here, just going to show you my KARK...." me spits coffee"...INOS trap..." OHHHH
Sheesh it actually works instant subscribe
what is the ammo for the catapult called
Thank you so much for your trap man. It works great. I already tamed two of them.
love you thanks, best trap
The one person that disliked the video was a person Steve raided lol
Not sure what im doing wrong, but as far as im aware I have it buitl exactly like you.. The karkinos refuses to go up the ramps, no matter what I do. Any ideas?
Just had this happen to me. I replaced the triangle roof with just stone stairs with a pillar for support and worked the first time i switched
@@tommyyt9179 I'll keep this in mind. I tamed a 148 by breaking everything in the back and running in to quick place it while it's inside. Works but risky
Great video! Did we ever come up with a better trap or is the final version?
by the way I did get the trap to work, so thank you! I did have a lot of trouble angling the stone roof down instead of up, I had to tear most of the trap down several times until it worked.
Awesome, gonna use these guys to get Rock Drake eggs the easy way :)
can we get a karkinos rave?
this looks so easy, tried it killed crab, can't seem to hit it on the right spot ....
Same
What about putting the fence foundations on regular or triangle foundations to keep them the same height?
yer you would just have to extend the ramp up and tower
Now with the net projectile and the harpoon launcher you can just net them, place a foundation infront of their head while their netted and put a canon down and 1 hit KO them
(Ik this vid was made before the net projectile existed)
great trap and perfect video!
Why does everyone choose catapult over cannon?
cannon tanks the taming efficiency
Hay Steve trap looks well made good job 👍🔥
i forgot, did you ever find out the distance needed to keep it from turning and retreating?
You could place foundations 4x4so that the corner faces the catapult. Then you can put the fence foundations in the same direction as you have them here, and since foundations try to snap together, itll give you alittle leeway with how flat the ground is
Works very well👍.
Very useful trap
This would work on a foundation right?
Yer should so just make a longer ramp
@@NOOBLETS ok thanks
Yay i got one now thank you so much!
tamed my first karkinos with this trap. thanks
Hey Steve, fantastic trap design
I have my own server and max level I have it set to is 240... Just tamed two 232 Karkinos using this method.
Great job as always ✌️
What’s ur server called?
I almost died because of the joke at the end
