Tips & Strategies
I laugh at you people that waste your time using narcotics when this beast losses so much torpor, so fast that only the duration of the torpidity rising is what is going to stop the torpidity from falling. In short you could just use 3,000 narcoberries (probably all you need) and keep his torpor rising for 2 hours and don’t have to give a care for the Giga during that time. He looses like 100 torpor per second, so brewing the narcotics is only effective when the creature unconscious loses torpor slower than other Dinos and you need to bring up its torpor a crazy amount. Do what I do and use even just a parasaur to harvest a bunch of berrie. P.S. love parasaurs for life :)
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 😊
I dare you to raise one!! They are savage if you got two high lvl parents (about lvl 140ish) and you get imprinting on it. The thing will become an adult with about 230% melee and basically one chomp any bronto!!! But on the down side you loose your job and your girlfriend
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!
Just lure into a metal gate set ups some plant Xs and it will knock out you welcome
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
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.
TO THE GUY THAT SAID METAL SIGNPOSTS WORK, IT JUST WALKS RIGHT OVER THEM.
f for my argy
The 100% chance of death with the Pachy's charge isn't talking about the Giga dying… it's about the Pachy.
