Dont think to tame this when you're in low level
To only use 1 cooked fish meat your taming speed has to be at 449! Yes I did check no I didn't add an extra 4
How many normal raw meat with x15 soothing balm?
I never fight a giga before and I have op rexes.. I just experienced how powerful he is.
I have 19 rex always ready to fight boss.with saddles 100s
Someone lured the giga close to my base so I decided to give it a try. I bring 10 rexes and my tape whistle attack they fight for like 5 minutes he killed all my op tames.. they had 37k and D600 D700.. so I grab my tek tape and kill him.. I learn my lesson plus now you guys know that u can't fight a giga with rexes.. I may give it another try with healing pigs and rexes to se how it goes..
Trap it with 4 Dino gates or billboards with a large bear trap to knock it out a prim tek bow is better than a crossbow or longneck
I was flying to the mountain close to the volcano called the frozen tooth, I was needing metal, just chillin, when I spot this giga while I'm on my level 111 argue, I panic then realize it's probably a low level cause the bigger they are the less likely they are to have a high level. I should've bought a lottery ticket that day cause my spyglass told me it was level 120! Yes a frickin level 120 spawned on my mountain. What fun.
They are actually easy to taim. I did some math and figured out I can knock it out with 13 shots from my mastercraft longneck rifle with tranq darts and you only need about 150 narcotics(when using prime meat) which is easy to get and only 13 prime meat without a soothing balm(only on mobile).
Very easy beginners tame, did kibble in last slot or prime meat. Go up to it and feed it. I got mine my first day of ark and love him.
Haven't seen it mentioned so sorry if I missed it, but these guys lose food super fast. Keep an eye on your food levels and troughs with these guys around. Cryo pods will stop their hunger so they don't starve rage in your base on accident.
The hardest part about taming this monster was luring it into our trap. He wasn't interested in us as bait, so here is how we had to do it: get on your argentavis and pick up a tasty helpless creature like a megaloceros or a phoiomia. The giga will chase this creature for far longer than he will chase you or your tames. Have a friend on another argentavis ready to pick up aggro with another wild dino when yours inevitably gets chomped. Oh, and try not to die in the process. Good luck!
Always have your team-mates with really high health, when found in the wild, go and knock out your mate either bio toxin or any narcotic, oh and then you run... always have your most valued items on you do if you die... well you lost all your stuff, you should try it.
First tame tapajera next go to snow biome and bring rifle with darts lure the giga over a mountain use your tapajera to lan on mountain and start shooting and let your tribe mates do the rest
Depending on where you find the giga there are 2 good things to do. The most wise thing to do would be to get a flying mount and lure it away from your base. Do you need to wreck a tribe without being found out? If yes the read on. Lure the giga into your enemy's base, the giga will wreck all their dinosaurs as wild gigas are not nerfed therefore even if they had a giga the giga you lured would survive. -NOTICE- do this if you do not enough to power to tame one, they are an extremely good bullet sponge.
You just gotta remember to bilck blorp
If your looking to fame they normally spawn at mountains but I have seen some in the forests anyway get a quetzal with platform fly above and shoot with tranks be sure to be a bit higher than it so it can't bite u
Well me and my tribe mates get our tames out to scout for a decent level Giga, then when we find that Giga we either trap it with Dino gates or just tranq it till it falls unconscious. While we are pumping narcs in we have one of are tribe mates ride a meat-eater to bring food to the unconscious Giga that we're taming. Once you do this process over and over again, soon you will have a decent tamed Giga to take home to your base. Happy Arking!!
I play primitive pve So no Guns I've so far have 18 Gigas. My best way of getting them KO I use the waterfall and get them Stuck works like a Charm.
Always know what you're doing! Have everything prepared and it will go smoothly
