If you ever encounter a raptor;

•Try to bola it if you have one and escape.

•If you don't have a bola,Run through trees and rocks in a zigzag way, creatures in ark are a bit too dumb in chasing.

•If there aren't many trees or rocks,for ex: you are in a plane area,try to lure the raptor to a passive or herbivores dino,like trikes,carbos,or even some moschops.

•If there isn't anything mentioned above then there's one way, Die and recollect the items.🤪

These are Arks thugs .. they don't care what you are doing whether it be minding your business or if your just looking to pet a dodo. They will come and they will kill you and your dodo.. Run as far as possible swim as far .carry a bola on you so you trap your friend and escape . @chief3alpha xbox

There flipping annoying every time a raptor tries to kill me I always DIE BECAUSE IT FLIPPING LATCHES ON TO YOU

Noob :look it’s dilo !

Raptor : huh

Noob : it has legs that could kick the athlete

Raptor : ?

Noob : dilo may I tame you ? *punch*

Raptor : you chose death ?

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.

Lots of guides say to leave the beaches as soon as possible, and I sort of agree. Leave the beach, but go to a spot with few trees (somewhere between the beach and the jungle) to start your first base. Definitely DON’T go straight to the jungle though, because most of the forests near start zones are filled with raptors, and if you’re a beginner you’ll be dead before you can think ‘hmm, it looks hungry.’ Not to say don’t go in the woods, just wait until you can tame/kill most raptors before trying to go too deep. Sorry for the length.

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!
