Salvaje
Equus magnus appears to be an ancestor of the modern horse. Based on its stripes, it may be the African variant of Equus giganteus, which appeared in North America during the Ice Age, but that is pure conjecture. Its behavior in the wild is similar to that of other wild members of the Equus genus - it sustains itself by grazing, while keeping safe from predators by living in herds and outrunning its attackers via superior speed and stamina.
Domesticado
Horse and man have long been partners in survival, and this remains true on the Island. In Equus, survivors will find a trusty steed or pack animal that can carry them swiftly across land. Taming an Equus has proven interesting, requiring carefully approaching the creature in the wild, mounting it, and then carefully soothing over time by feeding it vegetables.
In fact, Equus' reliability has lead some survivors to construct special saddles for them. I even encountered a man who added extra saddle-pouches that doubled as mobile crafting stations for chemical supplies, foodstuffs, and other items. Although not as robust as what you might find within a village, this utility helped him live a nomadic, solitary lifestyle.
Some survivors employ Equus to herd and wrangle other creatures with a specialized lasso. This tool is sometimes effective for self-defense as well, as Equus is limited in battle on its own...at least compared to aggressive prehistoric carnivores.
The Equus will trot around the island and poses no threat to any survivors. If a player gets near one, they will flee. If you wish to get near one to tame, use a Ghillie Suit.
Appearance
The Equus appears like a mixture of zebra and a large modern breed of domestic horse. It has a long wild mane, zebra like stripes, a tail like a horse and a shaggy beard like a goat's. From the dossier it appears to be comparable to larger horse breeds in terms of size, such as the Shire horse.

Unicorn (Variant)
Artículo principal : Unicorn
The Unicorn is a variant of the Equus distinguished by its white coloring and the horn protruding from its forehead. Only one wild Unicorn may exist at a time. Once tamed, another Unicorn may spawn in its place, as the tamed Unicorns no longer block wild spawns. Players can utilize cross server transfer to find other Unicorns to breed with. They can be transferred to Aberration maps as well. Unicorns can breed with other Unicorns, but they can not breed with an Equus.
1Los porcentajes se basan en el valor de la estadística al momento de ser domesticada (es decir, después de aplicarse la efectividad de tameo.) 2Aquí, se muestra el Daño base en bruto, en lugar de mediante porcentajes. 3Las criaturas salvajes no aumentarán su Velocidad de Movimiento al subir de nivel. 4La Inconsciencia aumenta con los niveles, pero no puede ser subida manualmente una vez ha sido domesticada.
Aumento de estadísticas al subir nivel en estado salvaje
Escribe los valores de la criatura salvaje para revisar en que estadísticas sobresale más. Los valores marcados con verde en una criatura de alto nivel son muy buenos para la crianza/reproducción. Si ya has domesticado una criatura, puedes intentar recuperar la información que tenía cuando era salvaje con la siguiente herramienta: ARK Stats Extractor.

Nota: después de que la criatura sea domesticada, conseguirá algunas bonificaciones a sus estadísticas dependiendo de la efectividad del domesticado. Esto dificulta el obtener los niveles precisos de una criatura domesticada, por lo que esta calculadora te ayudará mucho, ya que está pensada para dinosaurios salvajes únicamente. Con ella, podrás tener una idea sobre la distribución de las estadísticas de una criatura.
Combate
General
El Equus es un animal interesante para domesticar en etapas iniciales del juego. Es rápido y añade Inconsciencia con su ataque, por lo que podrás usarlo para domesticar también a otras criaturas.
Estrategia
El Equus es pasivo, pero si se le provoca intentará huir. Usa boleadoras y cualquier tipo de arma a corto/largo alcance para detenerlo o matarlo. También podrás usar a la mayoría de los dinosaurios domesticados para cazarlo.
Armamento
La boleadora es bastante efectiva contra esta criatura, aunque podrás usar casi cualquier otro arma.
Dangers
The Equus itself doesn't appear to present any immediate threat. Predators nearby are your biggest worry, as focusing on the tame or kill may distract you from your surroundings. If you attempt at taming it, it may kick you and set your torpor immediately at 50%, leaving you unable to defend yourself against
nearby predators around. The Equus may pose a threat in PVP as it can quickly transport your enemy, and deal torpor to you, possibly knocking you out.
Weakness
Most weaponry or creatures should be able to kill them without much trouble - provided you can keep up with it.
Taming
All numbers in these charts are inaccurate as of now. Still need more testing before saying by how much with any accuracy. For now have at least 10 extra Kibble for Kibble tames so as not to be under and lose the tame due to having to jump off. (update: a 150 Equus requires 31 Troodon Kibble to tame. Times appear to be the same though only a longer total because of the extra feeding intervals)

Taming Strategy
Begin by sneaking up on the Equus - they will flee if you startle them, much like the Tapejara. A ghillie suit will greatly aid in this endeavor. Place its preferred food in the last slot of your action bar, and when close enough, press E to feed. You are then able to press E again to mount the Equus. It will begin to run with you on its back, so be aware of any potential threats in the area prior to beginning the tame. While riding, watch for when it begins to buck and attempt to throw you off. Press E again to feed and calm the Equus. If you do not hit the feed button fast enough you will be thrown off the Equus, which will then kick you to inflict torpor damage. Repeat this process until you have your very own noble steed. Make sure to only feed the Equus when it starts bucking. If you feed it prior, then it will throw you off it’s back and your taming progress will be lowered. You may jump while riding the Equus, so you may do this until it runs out of stamina, effectively making it slower. While taming, you must be defensive against other creatures, so go in prepared. Have other tames and tribe members on aggressive and follow, and it may also be worth walling off the area that the Equus is in (in an effort to minimize the predators in the area). Sometimes if another creature hits the Equus during taming, the taming progress drops to 0%, and taming efficiency is penalized as well.
This process of taming it out in the open however often leads to failure, as when the Equus randomly wanders, it oftens gets close to and dies from dangerous creatures, as it is often found in relatively dangerous areas. To tame it reliably, there are certain methods that can be applied, all of which involve using a trap.
One simply good strategy is to pick up the Equus with a tame that can grab, such as the likes of the Argentavis, Megalosaurus, Karkinos, or Quetzal. Drop it in a trap or pen and then tame.
If a flyer or grabbing creature is not available, another option is to temporarily trap it with a Bola, (or a Bear Trap if taming effectiveness is not a priority), and quickly build fence foundations around it to trap the Equus. An even better solution is to first knockout the horse, (even using a Slingshot will suffice) and then build a trap around it before it wakes up.
These 3 methods ensure much easier taming and a lot lower risk of getting you and your Equus killed.
Every time you botch the taming process you will lose taming effectiveness. It is possible to reset the effectiveness to 100% by knocking the Equus unconscious - however they might despawn at some point after - this even while taming it.
Note: The strategy described is risky. Having tames following on aggressive might kill your Equus if it kicks you when throwing you off. Trying to tame it in a pen might show being difficult too, as the Equus will just run around and never calm. You can get out of rendering range and come back, making it calm again. Beware as it might despawn.
Another option is to have another Equus equipped with a saddle and lasso the wild Equus or Unicorn, and have another player feed and tame it while it is attached to the lasso. This prevents it from wandering too far.
Utility
Roles
Knock-Out: The kick of a well-bred Equus is to be feared and respected; with a torpor inducing attack that scales with its melee damage, a horse can quickly outpace most other tranquilizing methods. This can make the Equus an invaluable tool for both taming and combat scenarios, though beware that the damage from the kick can possibly kill your potential taming target, or decrease taming effectiveness if the target is kicked after it has been knocked unconscious. To make it even easier, Bolas can be thrown from the horse's back, to immobilize your target; be it a fleeing prey animal or an aggressive predator. For this role, level primarily Health and Melee Damage. (default: , , ).
War Horse: The Equus can be used as a battle mount with its low stamina drain and reasonably high health (Level Speed and Stamina)
Mobile Crafting: Their saddle acts as a Mortar and Pestle similar to Castoroides and Thorny Dragon with Smithy.
Trapper: The saddle allows making lassos, which can be thrown at creatures to tether them to you. You can then move where you want.
Gatherer: the Equus can gather berries by attacking bushes or small trees.
Racing Mount: In ARK: Survival Evolved Mobile, the Equus comes with a stat known as Equus Power. Equus Power determines the speed and stamina of the Equus for racing. It can also be bred for the chance to attain one of six racing classes. These are Lazy (0-1.99), Normal (2.00-3.09), Swift (3.10-4.50), Maiden (4.51 - 6.64), Racing (6.65 - 13.32), and Thoroughbred (13.33-16.15).
Travel: The speed and stamina of an Equus allows it to outrun and outpace a huge majority of the creatures. With its kick attack, it can discourage most of the creatures that hunt it.
Transport:
Jumping:
Scout: The Equus' speed can make it a very viable scout for sneaking into other player's bases, provided there is a hole which it can fit through.
Pet: The Equus' size is good enough to fit in a base, so keeping one for companionship is okay, but not strategically usefull.
Carrier The Equus reduces weight of many items, so packing lots of cementing paste, chitin, and many other items can be useful for a walking mortar and pestle.
Weight Reduction
The Equus reduces the weight of the following resources by the listed amount while they are in its inventory:
Real Horses are social animals that live in herds, which means real Equus were social herd animals. Ark's Equus can occasionally be found in groups, but they are most often found wandering alone.
The Equus has the longest period of gestation, probably because of Unicorn variant.
You can get a good amount of experience on Ragnarok by running on the coast of highlands, gathering the Basilosaurus corpses, gathering berries with the Equus, and mass crafting narcotics.
The Equus is one of two creatures that spawn on all maps the others being Coelacanth and Parasaur.
