How to tame dinosaurs in Ark: Survival Evolved | Survival Handbook 2.0

Thank You for making this currently! I’m a starter right now so this helps a lot

Hi first

I love this Series

Me with 1,000 ark hours - "ahh yes taming tutorial, let's watch the entire video"

Ma men is bac🎉🎉

Bro your videos are amazing. Thanks to you I started playing ark years ago. So glad to see that you are back!!!

Good to have you back man 🥳

One of my original ark educators. Thanks for another great video

Me with 10,000hrs on ark console.. I came to see if his methods are valid or not

Hello

Remember the days before the trike had that annoying charge attack? I certainly do... Those were the good ol' days, back when Ark was still about surviving with dinosaurs and relatively simple weapons and technology; not random alien-like creatures, tek creatures, and giant flying laser space whales... May the version of Ark that I fell in love with rest in peace; you were a symbol of a better time, and the beloved source of so many hours of entertainment.

yes more

Nice to start an updated series, now I can share this with my friends that are fresh to Ark :)

I love your content, I like that you are experimenting with the ark emotes lol. Very creative and interesting!

keep crankin em out homie

If you starve tame the trike, rather than feeding it right away, you won't lose the progress if it wakes up lol.... Definitely don't feed it right away

One point about Using Narcoberries. While not as potent as Narcotics, just like when you eat regular berries you food stat goes up slowly over time even if you eat them quickly, narcoberries go up much slower, and while going up torpor doesn't go down, and torpor goes up slowly, so when you do starve taming they are actually more efficient than using narcotics.

Great summary for Beach Bob Beginners!

I finally installed ark again after my old laptop had died 2 years ago and I'm so happy you uploaded this

Heh Pterafier, I wish you an amazing career and some good luck. Also, I heard Ark would be getting a UE5 revamp soon. What would you like to see?? I’m not sure you remember me but I’ve said hello a few times on your streams and videos. Love you man.

The most consistently good taming traps in my experience:

For land creatures:
A stone 2x2 pitfall trap, with doorframes at least 2 high on every side, with ramps up one side of the trap. When you have built the trap, Agro the creature you’re wanting to tame, and get it to chase you. Run up the ramp and into the trap, then run out of any of the doorframes, leaving the creature unable to chase you, open to knocking out. This trap works for creatures as small as a raptor to creatures as big as a Rex. This trap is pretty simple to modify, it can be made smaller to save resources when taming smaller Dinos, or it can be made bigger, if you aren’t confident in your ability to kite the creature accurately.

For flying creatures:
A (again) stone 2x2 foundation square with double doorframes at least 2 high on three of the four sides of the foundation square. On the last open side, build a stone Dino gateway with gate. Then, of course, build ceilings on top of the doorframes. This trap is useful for taming argies (seen as this is my modified version of the classic argy trap) as well as griffins on ragnarok, Crystal isles, and other custom arks, as well as snow owls on extinction. If you have a pteranodon (which you should have by this point in the game when you’re able to tame argies) with mid to high stamina, you can get an argy or griffin to chase you. Fly into the trap with your ptera, making sure the argy/griffin follows you in, and then fly out the back with the pteranodon. Pteras can fit through double doorways, while griffins and argies cannot. Thus, your ptera will escape the cage while the argy or griffin gets stuck. Then, quickly land and dismount the ptera and close the Dino gateway behind the trap, sealing in the flyer.

Of course, these traps aren’t the only traps you’ll need for creature taming. Powerful dinos like gigas, manas, or trapping wyverns to harvest milk, but for the most part, these traps will ger the job done for most early to mid game tames.

Hope this helped all you beginners

Me on console spamming triangle to split meat...

Set sprint to toggle. Turn Sprint on. Print A or D (left or right) while looking the other direction to circle strafe. Do NOT use diagnol motions. You can now kite the Trike and out turn it while you safely pelt with it the Slingshot (never used it) or Tranq arrows.

Must easier, must faster, takes less resources.

I love these videos. I already know this but I still like watching these because your explanations of everything on Ark is so awesome I still learn stuff I didn't know thanks for all the great info

One thing you didn't mention to be aware off as a beginner are other wild dinos.
I hated those raptors attacking the dinos I tried to tame - and I still despise those f-ing birds which stole all the f-ing narcotics from the dinos!

Amazing vid!

will the carnivores attack my tame when it's asleep?

i got over 2k hours into ark and yet i find these videos very interesting and fun to watch thank you for making them!

thank you for all the educational videos, helping me on my first boss runs.

when you knock it out do you set the food near it?

Dodex app says 42 narcotics to tame a Griffin on hard single player but says only 81 narco berries which is was less needed to make the narcotics

It’s the ark dad lol the pro teacher

Show how to tame and nock out a dino

Can u go offline while it’s taming

I know all about ark (thanks to you) easiest cave runs, note runs, and what creatures for what job, but I still rewatch your vids cuz I love the explanation and just makes me want to play the game more

Or u can jus use admin command 😂😂

This looks like where I'm going to die about 10 time before getting it right. LOL. Still watching as ARK installs. 45% Now. 😛

How big the trap should be for a Dire Bear ?

I don't know why but I put food in the inventory I wait like 30 minutes and nothing happens

:D i havemt tamed nothing cause i get kiled

So i play on ark mobile and one when i knocked a tapejara out it already had his hunger at zero so it was super easy to tame why did this happen and how can i do this with other dinos i wanna tame?

Thanks for the info put how do I feed them narcotics/narco berries?
