ARK: Survival Evolved & Ascended Companion
Tips & Strategies
When I was new in Ark and killed multiple times by Raptor, so I decided to tame one. I bring bola, narcotic, meat and started searching for it. I found him and try to bola but missed and he killed. Again I try bola, missed and killed for 5-6 times then I thought I cannot bola him. I climbed on rock and try to tranquize. He was very fast I missed some arrow and hits a lot of tranq arrow and killed multiple times in this process. Finally I killed him just by using tranq. After a lots of day I understand that Raptor was an Alpha and cannot be tamed 🥲
If you see an alpha, then run immediately! They will kill you in seconds if they reach you. Run to water; they cannot or will not (I don't know which) swim downwards. If one attacks you at close range, you are as good as dead. They have 15 times health and extra damage and cannot be knocked out or tamed. Normal raptors also can't swim down, so if you can't kill it, then it's time for a swim!
I’m on console and so far I have tamed a carno, baryonx,bronto and a peranadon(I’m a nub) but I have not seen any raptors anywhere! Arrow up if you think I should travel west
In a recent PC (and very soon to console) update these little jerks can now pounce on you...and they WILL. Every. Damn. Time. They knock you off mounts and on you to the ground while they gnaw on your bones...mocking you. They’ve knocked me off an argy and therozinos several times. They’re much more deadly now. PS...alpha raptors ALSO do this.
One time near the swamp, i saw a pack of raptors. There were 9 raptors in that pack. That's all i have to say.
-Someone, somewhere in the world.
This is how to beat a alpha raptor…
1. Find a alpha raptor
2. Get it’s attention on you and aggro it
3. Go to an area with a lot of herbivores and hide underneath a diplo and bronto if you can’t find a large pack of trikes or stegos
4.go to a high rock and see the raptor getting beated
5. If the raptor kills the Dino’s get out a shotgun and some of the ammo or get a crossbow with tranq arrows and shoot the alpha raptor
6. Make sure that you skin the alpha to get a lot of prime meat
7. Use that prime meat to tame more raptors
8. Get a raptor squad and go on a hunt for alpha raptors once in a while
9. Breed your squad to get lots of baby raptors
10. Get the left over prime meat or meat and make sure to feed the baby raptors
11. Enjoy!
Can you maybe like this comment? I wrote for a while correcting my GRAMMeR for yall
He is tge greatest . 1 of my favorite dinosaur
If one chases after you and you know you cannot fight it then sprint away and run very close to herbivores or small carnivores because it will keep following your trail and choose to attack them instead. If this helped then ^
Raptors killed my level 29 para named Birdy Bird (dont Ask Why it’s name is birdy bird). I had to abandon Birdy bird! One like for R.I.P Birdy Bird :(
If you encounter an alpha raptor while riding a weak tame and it attacks you. go swimming under water and get out of its range I saved my raptor (lvl 20) like this.
If One is following you and you are not prepaired hide behind a larhe herbivore like a trike. The raptor will accidently hit it and they will fight to the death. Run while the battle is still hapening. Hope this helped. Up for noobs who have never seen a raptor
If you see a raptor, just tame 5 dodos and then run as fast as you can while the raptor is chasing you.
I learned that in ASA, Raptors can fit through doors now. This was not a fun learning experience.
The simplest way to catch these guys is to bola them.
A high rock is ideal, but I’ve had that blow in my face a couple of times. Here’s how I do it:
1.) get in raptor’s line of sight with your bola already swinging. He’ll run in a straight line towards you… it’s hard not to miss.
2.) hit raptor with bola just as he is about to grab you, so there’s no chance of you missing.
3.) get behind trapped raptor and beat him unconscious with either club or fists. The reason I say behind is that if you’re in front and you approach him, he can grab and pin you still. Learned this the hard way once or twice…
You got him! Feed it raw meat, and enjoy. I have five lvl 10-20 raptors, and they kill theris and carnos in a matter of seconds. They’re a must have.
Use a bola and use narc arrows, or use a slingshot if you have too.
In Ragnarock across the bridge with the holes there are some Tek Raptors and regular Raptors to!
If you're being chased my raptors (or anything raptor sized really) run into deep water and go down below them, they should swim away in a couple seconds and you should be able to swim away free. Good luck to all the beginners!! 😁
