R-Carbonemys
Variant
Overview
R-Carbonemys is a herbivorous variant of the Carbonemys with enhanced melee damage and reduced health. It excels at gathering a wide variety of plant-based resources quickly while ridden.
It can be airlifted by Quetzal or Tusoteuthis for rapid deployment across long distances.
Spawn Locations
R-Carbonemys does not currently spawn on any ARK: Survival Ascended map, or spawn data is not yet available.
R-Carbonemys must be knocked out before taming. Use a Chain Bola or trap it with a Bear Trap, Large Bear Trap, or Plant Species Y to immobilize it.
Feed it Regular Kibble for the fastest taming. Mejoberry is a slower alternative. The process takes about 20 minutes and requires no Narcotics. Use the calculator below for your settings.

 Archelon Algae | 40 | 24:01 | 74 Lvl (224) |
 Crops | 160 | 1:36:01 | 62 Lvl (212) |

Drops & Harvest Resources
Killing R-Carbonemys yields Hide, Raw Meat, and Keratin. The Hatchet harvests the most Hide and Keratin, while the Pick maximizes Raw Meat yield.
Estimates based on game-extracted data (weights, quantities, harvest multipliers, damage type chains). Each harvest event independently rolls each resource - higher weight = higher drop chance. Actual yields vary with RNG.
Gathering Abilities
While ridden, R-Carbonemys gathers from multiple categories including berries, fiber, mushrooms, rare flowers, sap, seeds, and wood. Its attack harvests 10× yield on resources like Mejoberry, Narcoberry, Stimberry, Rare Flower, Rare Mushroom, and Wood.

R-Carbonemys has a strong resistance to fire damage, taking -60% less from fire-based attacks. It is highly vulnerable to instant melee damage, spike walls, and explosive attacks, taking up to +120% more damage from these sources. Level Health and Melee Damage.
