Up this if you want a platform saddle for this

When you finally tame one, don't put stat points into anything but melee. Other stats don't improve very well.
If u like them imagine fighting a titanosoar with it
I died My griffin right next to giga. My stone structures next to giga. Gigaβs Brain: I rather eat stone than griffin. I get my stuff thatβs right near giga. Back away. Tamed it while eating stone. SUCCESS. Now I have a lvl 170 giga that murders everything and my griffin still alive. Thanks to gigas Favoring stone over food
Anyone else think the Giga should be given a bigger roar? Like the health goes down and so does the melee damage at least give it a blood stopping roar.
This is to all the noobs out there just like I was when I encountered them for the first time. RUN GET THE HELL AWAY FROM THEM I MEAN THE OTHER SIDE OF THE MAP OR U WILL DIE!!!!!!!
Person who said they wanted a platform saddle.
Firstly, oh, sure, it's soooo balanced to have a F*CKING 17K HEALTH AT LEVEL ONE, INCREDIBLY HIGH DAMAGE TAME WITH AN ARMY OF RAPTORS ON TOP,
Secondly, these things will eat you over a bit of fall damage, imagine what they'd think of a platform saddle.
Thirdly, look at them, to they look like they could hold up a platform? Do they? Really? I mean, seriously.

While a absolute BEAST of a tame, the giga has some factors you have to consider.
1. Enraging. The giga will enrage and attack EVERYTHING if it enraged. Its eyes will turn a luminous yellow colour and it will be angry.
2. Feeding. The giga will enrage (see above) if there is no meat available too it, whether in a trough or in its inventory. This will stop once it has acquired enough meat to keep its hunger away. (This does not apply to babies. They will just starve)
3. Imprinting. If you have a giga, breed it and get 100 percent imprint. If you don't, the giga will enrage permanently until death when its health drops below a certain amount. (I think 40 percent).
4. Using your giga. These things have a nasty bite and would be perfect for pvp except for the fact you have to factor in the above and that you are a sitting duck for any sniper while mounted. Besides that, it is perfect for pvp.
Hope this helps. But remember, these things can still be countered with varying difficulty.

If you're on a pvp server and the person you're raiding has a giga, if you can, focus fire on it...it will eventually enrage and attack all its friendly dinos and structures around it
Gigas should have a mobile kibble that works on any animal.
