Encountering Tips
How do I kill a raptor? raptor battling strategies in ARK: Survival Evolved.
So when I was taming one (about 3 minutes from when this was put on here) I went to dododex to see how much raw meat it needs, so after, I put 9 pieces in it's inventory, and when it was 88.9 % tamed and then a THERIZENOSAUR COMES OUT OF NOWHERE AND KILLS IT RIGHT WHEN IT'S TAMED!
When I first encountered i tried shooting with bow ……. They dodge don’t shot with bow just bolo
If you run into a raptor stay crouched wen the pounce on you quickly
Un crouch and it will miss the pin.
If early game and have no mount It is knock out or die as the are so fast.
IN MOBILE THEY CAN FIT THROUGH DOOR FRAMES
A bola can end a regular raptor, but alphas are a different story.
This tip is for batteling Alpha Raptors in Ark Survival Ascended.
In ASA, Alpha’s can now eat corpses, but tooday I noticed they can’t eat baby corpes. So If you want to kill an Alpha Raptor, make sure he kills a baby dino and while he’s attacking the corpes put some arrows in the head. I tried it myself and it works!
whoever said they were pounced by an alpha raptor, you meant normal raptor, alpha raptors dont pounce
If you encounter an Alpha Raptor, lead it into deep water and make sure it doesn’t go to the shore, get on a rock (if there is one) and you can bow it if you are on the rock or try killing it with a sword or something else
These guys, for some reason, can't beat turtles. Several times I have seen a 1v1 between a level 30 raptor and level 10 turtle, turtle is barely standing but the raptor goes down regardless. So if you see ONE fighting a turtle, it's a lost cause.
Don't mess with the alpha rapter
One time I came across a alpha raptor and at the time I was new to the game I tried to knock it out with a bat
Idk how many times I’ve tried to complete the pursuit, “Hunt raptor”. It’s super stressful. Any tips?
I’ve encountered an alpha raptor once and their pack -___-
There were four creatures attacking you and there was only one tame that could stop them but when the world needed it most, it vanished
-WARNING- Although it doesn’t say it, they can damage wood. Tested on mobile.
Fun fact the raptors in ark aren't Velociraptors they're Utahraptors
If you don’t have a bola or tranqs then just run into the water, for some reason they run away from you when you touch water. If that doesn’t work go underwater they can’t go underwater.

Always have a bola on you so if you see it you can trap it n kill or tame. Or have some strong weapon like an ascendant sword or anything to kill it fast... BEWARE!! cause if it comes too close, it will pounce at you and pin you to the ground. Then all you can do is “absolutely nothing” except watch it eat you to death! Good luck! Also, always expect there to be more than 1 raptor. Play it safe!
For an alpha, a bronto with good stamina can deal with them no problem, they have massive knock back so no issue
Or you can get a journey man sword and do it yourself
Don’t go into the forest without multiple bolas
The raptors wil-
