The table below shows how many hits from each torpor weapon are needed to knock out the Carcharodontosaurus at different levels. Wait between shots for torpor to tick up. Firing too fast can kill the creature before it goes down.

Below are the narcotic requirements for keeping the Carcharodontosaurus sedated throughout taming. Bio Toxin is twice as potent as Narcotics (80 vs 40 Torpor per use), while Narcoberries work in a pinch at just 7.5 Torpor each. With Torpor draining at 0.5/s, don't wait until the bar is nearly empty to apply narcotics.

The real-time timers below help you monitor Torpor drain and Food depletion during the tame. Starve taming is recommended for valuable high-level Carcharodontosaurus: let the Food stat deplete first, then add food. This way nothing is wasted if something goes wrong.

The Carcharodontosaurus is a tamable, carnivore creature in ARK: Survival Ascended.

At 70,000 base HP, the Carcharodontosaurus is extraordinarily tanky. Melee starts at 100% - respectable melee power that scales with level-ups. With 480 base Stamina, the Carcharodontosaurus has good endurance. It carries 650 base Weight - massive inventory space.

The Carcharodontosaurus is a knockout tame: apply enough torpor to knock it out, then place food in its inventory.

Once tamed, the Carcharodontosaurus is best used as a pack animal, hauling large amounts of resources between locations. Breeding produces fertilized eggs that hatch within a 37°C–39°C temperature window. A wild Carcharodontosaurus is worth 750 base experience when killed. It can be cloned at a Cloning Chamber for 0.99 Element plus 0.01 Element per level.
