Tips & Strategies
Gallimimus are an annoying tame.They can be trapped with a bola, but due their low health, it is difficult to knock them out with tranq arrows without killing them, I recommend taking tranq darts instead which are unlocked around level 60. These work better as the deal more torpor, but much less damage, meaning you can knock them out without killing them now. The saddle also has 3 seats, which can be great if on multiplayer. Thanks for reading
More Gallimimus Taming & KO Tips
These things are hard to tame if your not on mobile.
!THIS IS HOW TO TAME ON CONSOLE AND PC!
first of all bolas dont work on them if your not on mobile, so heres a tip. Build a trap out of a foundation, a ramp, and some pillars so you can run away but the galli is trapped. Then once you built it, find said galli and eat a rare flower so it chases you, (it might take a few since it doesent last to long) then run onto your ramp jump into the trap and run out and the galli will follow you into and get stuck. Now DONT USE YOUR FISTS OR A BAT. (These dont knock out gallimimus unlike most other dinos, they just kill them) And tranq it until its knocked out. Then feed berries. Damn I wish toxicant arrows were on pc and console.
Who thinks this looks like a overcharged comply?
Gallimimuses can be picked up with argies at least on mobile.
Taming these guys is a pain, since they stay asleep for 10 secs. But the idea to keep these guys asleep is by bringing bio toxin. Since it has a lot of torpor when consumed,. But what sucks about biotoxin is that it spoils.
Bolas DO WORK on MOBILE. just tested it out
Found a female and stole there egg and she will chase you and than trap her in your trap

NEVER LEAVE THIS BUGGER ALONE FOR 2 SECONDS, THEY WAKE UP FAST IVE FAILED MANY TIMES BECAUSE OF THIS
alright so uh narcotics are useful but bio toxin is better.
from what i’ve seen:
Bio Toxin - 80 Torpor + Can be fed to creatures constantly
Narcotic - 40 Torpor + Can be fed to creatures
constantly
Narcoberries - 7.5 Torpor + Can be fed to herbivores constantly, but not carnivores
hope this is helpful
Drop in a taming pen if possible. Darts work best so you don't kill it. Wakes up fast so keep a close eye on it.
