What are tips for giganotosaurus? Tips and strategies for giganotosaurus in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
Sit on quetzal platform saddle just above giga’s hit box And shoot. Then eat rare flowers. It will be enraged at you and won’t run away or get distracted even if it is about to be knocked out.
I recommend to do these steps if you encounter one.
Killing:
-get flying creature
-Agro giga
-Fly above water
-watch it drowned
-realize you can’t get it because of stupid sea animals
Taming:
-become the flash
-make a trap
-trap it
-spend 1000 hours shooting tranqs
-get more weapons cuz yours broke
-knock it out
-feed it 1000 nacros
-feed it prime meat and hope they don’t spoil
-or use kibble
-tame it
-use it to kill other giga’s
-realize u messed up
One does not simply tame a giga without a few deaths
Don’t approach without a flyer or you’ll be slapped into infinity.

When encountering a TAMED giga, 1 RPG to the head will enrage it. This is a great way to counter giga griefers.
Despite having a paddle the size of a boat for a tail the Giga is incapable of moving beyond a babies crawl speed in water. Lure it far enough away from land and this mighty behemoth will give up on life and quietly sink beneath the waves.
WARNING: Takes an absurdly long time to actually drown. Possibly do to being a Sith Lord.
If you're on unc mobile and you level up to level 92 you can easily find these using this process:
1. Activate the hunt: giganotosaurus pursuit
2. Check every mountain in the top part of the map, you can do this by flying to the top of each mountain one by one and a white locator arrow can appear that tells you the nearest giga within 1 km. This locator arrow can also locate gigas that haven't been rendered in yet so if you are on singleplayer you can save a file to restore right before you render in the giga to reroll its stats. If the white arrow doesn't appear, move to the next one and check all 5 mountains until you either find a giga or the white locator arrow never appears which means there are zero gigas on the map.
3. If you found a giga, congrats! You can trap it by mounting any mount that allows you to easily place 4 metal dino gates then go up to the giga using the mount and place them around it by putting them in your hotbar. (I tried this with a pachy and it worked) The giga won't attack you since gigas are neutral to all tames on old mobile.
4. If you aren't on singleplayer and you wanna find a higher level giga then abandon the pursuit and either kill it to free up space for more gigas to spawn or just move to another mountain if the giga you saw was found on the first mountain you searched. Make sure to abandon the pursuit before you kill the giga, as I killed like 30 gigas using my own method and tamed 3 max level gigas then wondered why i gained 200 kg when I killed the last giga, then realized i accidentally forgot to abandon the pursuit and now have to manually search every mountain by myself.
Note if you are using this pursuit to find gigas to grief people on multiplayer it doesnt work as on old mobile gigas are neutral to all tames and if they have turrets the giga will just aggro onto that and they can't even damage auto turrets since if you punch it it produces a metal sound.
If you want to make a trap the giga can’t break the metal gateway
Always remember that if you encounter this creature on the ground, the best thing to do is stick your head between you legs and kiss your butt goodby.
This is my experience when I encountered a giga so me and my friend were traveling on Oreo (my argy) when all of a sudden a giga spawned out of nowhere and killed Oreo so me and my friend were on the ground so we had three choices 1. Commit suicide to the giga 2. Make a run for it 3. Wait till it despawned but my friend sacrificed himself for me so that way I can get Oreos implant and run to base and that’s it
(Plz press up for prayers for Oreo)
Wall Giga Wall Giga, We love Wall Gigas and especially if you’ve only now got your first flyer and tranqs!!!!!!! And Narcotics!!!!!!!!!
Well....nobody told me that if you take two tame level 160 gigas to fight a wild level 20 that BOTH of your gigas would perish! Should have taken the wolves /s
TO TAME THE GIGANOTOSAURUS YOU WILL NEED THESE THINGS
4 METAL DINOSAUR GATES
1 LARGE BEAR TRAP
MAKE IT ON FLAT GROUND AND PLACE THE FIRST ONE IN THE OPPOSITE SIDE OF THE GIGA AND THE OTHER TWO ON THE SIDES MAKE SURE THEY SHOULD BE CONNECTED AND THE LARGE BEAR TRAP IN THE MIDDLE OR A LITTLE BIT CLOSER TO THE FIRST ONE NOW AGGRO THE GIGANOTOSAURUS AND LEAD IT INTO THE TRAP AND IF IT GETS CAUGHT IN THE BEAR TRAP QUICKLY GO BEHIND IT AND PLACE THE FOURTH GATE NOW IT IS TRAPPED
IF YOU PLAY ON MOBILE LIKE I DO THEN USE A SOOTHING BALM AND THE SLEEP STARVATION TRICK TO INSTANTLY TAME IT
One day I was riding my pteranodon trying to get one away from a mountain to tame it and apparently it one shots pteranodons with 500 health
If your going to kill this mofo I would not get a DODO ARMY OR PEGO ARMY I WOULD GET BOTH lol
