Taming Results
Use the calculator results to plan your tame - they show the exact time, food quantity, and bonus levels for the R-Carnotaurus based on your settings.
Required Narcotics
Use the narcotic calculator to determine exactly how many Narcotics, Bio Toxin, or Narcoberries you need for the R-Carnotaurus. Your options are Narcotics (40 Torpor), Bio Toxin (80 Torpor, best efficiency), or Narcoberries (7.5 Torpor, cheapest but slowest). With Torpor draining at 0.3/s, don't wait until the bar is nearly empty to apply narcotics.
Starve & Torpor Timers
Track the taming process with the timers below - they monitor both Torpor and starvation progress. The torpor timer alerts you when narcotics are needed. The starve timer tracks Food depletion for starve-taming, where you let the food bar drop before placing all food at once.
