The Karkinos Saddle is the equipment required to ride and control a tamed Karkinos. Craft it at a smithy or fabricator once you have the engram, or spawn it directly for testing and admin purposes.
Because this saddle has an item ID, you can spawn it either with the GFI command or with GiveItem and its item ID. The saddle does not stack, so each Karkinos you want to ride needs its own saddle in your inventory.
