I dare you to raise one!! They are savage if you got two high lvl parents (about lvl 140ish) and you get imprinting on it. The thing will become an adult with about 230% melee and basically one chomp any bronto!!! But on the down side you loose your job and your girlfriend
3546 points   Taming & KO  
Make 4 metal dino gates and 1 large bear trap. Place three frames and door into an incomplete square and the large bear trap in the I between them. Lure the Giga into the trap and while its trapped place 4th down to make the square. Then just light it up with tranqs
3280 points   Taming & KO  
Many a tribe have been foolish enough to think they could fight a wild giga with a tamed and ended up with a dead giga. Don't be them.
1821 points   Encountering  
If it is the Giga you want to flee, It is harder on land you will see, Get on a bird and get to the sky, So you survive and don't die, Get out of there and let it be.
1622 points   Taming & KO  
The 100% chance of death with the Pachy's charge isn't talking about the Giga dying… it's about the Pachy.
1447 points   Taming & KO  
Tips for taming gigas: if you encounter a giga in the wild while with a tribe mate, simply bola the tribe mate and run.

861 points   Encountering  
He'll be comin down the mountain when he comes, he'll be comin for you, better grab a gun, you can't run, you can't hide, might as well stand in fight, but you'll probably end up in his tum.
858 points   Encountering  
Pray to the ark gods that there is a Titanosaurus nearby, and if one is so lucky? Run between its legs and get as far away from the looming armageddon that is titan v giga!
