ARK: Survival Evolved & Ascended Companion
Tips & Strategies
The giga is a pretty hard tame if your wanting one. Gigas can destroy lots of stuff, and it has a okay speed. Get a ton of darts and aim for the head, you might also want to stand on a mountain. Bring a lot of narcotics with you, your gonna need it. Add a soothing thing with it as well you can tame with raw meat (normal) if you want but it takes longer. Stock up on food. Also try to keep it safe because for me these guys spawn mainly near mountains and there’s a bunch of threats there. Try your best to keep it safe and safe taming!
More Giganotosaurus Taming & KO Tips
The things you need to tame a giga:-
1)Flyer (recommending an argy).
2)4-5 dinosaur metal gateways.
3)1-2 large bear traps.
4)10x soothing balm if your playing on mobile.
5)Your KO weapon (most recommended are ascendant longneck rifle or ascendant crossbow).
6)Your KO ammo (bring a decent amount).
7)Taming food of your choice (most recommended is raw prime meat or kibble if you can).
8)Decent amount of narcotics or bio toxin.
FIND GIGA: gigas usually spawn at mountains. On the island try looking around the volcano or the two mountains in the snow area.
SET YOUR TRAP: take 3 of your metal gateways and make this shape \_/ then put a large bear trap or 2 in the middle. It’s easier if you build the trap on flat ground.
TRAP THE GIGA: get the giga to follow you and make it go inside the trap, then make sure it’s caught in the bear trap. When it’s stuck in the bear trap go behind it and complete the trap with another gateway. The final shape of the trap looks like a Trapezoidal.
KO THE GIGA: even a low level giga has a lot of torpor and it drops fast so keep shooting no matter what. It’s recommended for a tribe-mate to help you.
START FEEDING: put the food in the giga’s inventory and keep an eye on it’s torpor.
I hope this was helpful 😊
WILD = 80,000 hp
TAMED = 18,000 hp
I'll say no more.....
I was looking to metal to make a saddle then I said to my brother “i am going to tame a giga” as a joke. Not even 10 seconds later a level 55 giga came into view. KEEP IN MIND WE ARE ONLY LEVEL 40!! We are gonna tame it tomorrow with arrows since we don’t have tranq darts😂 wish us luck!
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.
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
I 100% recommend charging straight on a Giga with a wooden club, you won’t regret it.
Just lure into a metal gate set ups some plant Xs and it will knock out you welcome
You need to tame giga 4 metal gates,1or2 large bear traps longneck rifle better to not use primitive use ramshackle to ascendant longneck use tranq darts better use shocking tranq darts bring 400 to1000 bio toxin depending on your decision use more bio toxin if higher level use for mobile players quetzal kibble with x15 balm the fastest or x10 balm for normal taming boost or minor soothing balm for small boost for pc players use extraordinary kibble or mutton or prime meat wait and keep an eye on unconsciousness bar and here you go you tamed your own giga
Update from last time:
Sadly black pearl died, I lost stam so I was resting on a hill when the giga (10 for sure) sprinted over and killed us.
Now, I have the trap and the arrow.
The giga’s gonna be mine soon.
Also, I have a question:
On the island where do high level pts spawn? Unrelated but very hard to find 130+ pts really
TO THE GUY THAT SAID METAL SIGNPOSTS WORK, IT JUST WALKS RIGHT OVER THEM.
f for my argy
