What are tips for giganotosaurus? Tips and strategies for giganotosaurus in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
When I find a giga, I lure it to a location I find easiest to get it stuck. Easiest way to lure it is by placing a dodo or a monkey on the platform on your quetz. It'll register as a land dino and remain aggressive to you. Then get it into a position where if it runs away it gets stuck. I do this with natural traps and solo. Good luck.
Another way to easily knock these Guys out is just on a griffin not the passenger seat and pump atleast 1500 stam onto ur griffin and just hover over your giga and just rain fire
How to survive a giga.
Firstly, you could be faster than your friend, but you don’t have friends so that won’t work. Maybe sacrifice some innocent dodo to save yourself.
Secondly, if you are on a mountain, parachute off and pray it loses agro. Though, you killed hundreds of innocent creatures before so better be lucky instead of good.
Thirdly, you can get full ascended gear and blast it to kingdom come. I’m talking full ascended tek, and maybe a few hundred c4s
That’s how you survive a giga.
They are in Fjordur, at least both in Normal and R versions. For trap captain fatdog's is nice.
The many ways to kill a wild giga:
Bite its tail with literally any flyer (Tapejara griffin or tropeo recommended)
Shoot it with a rifle from the back of a griffin/tapejara
Use a lightning/poison wyvern
Spit at it with a basilisk
Shoot it with a velonasaur on the back of a quetzal
Sic a titan on it
Lure it into deep water and use any aquatic dino
Freeze it with an ARK: Additions Cryolophosaurus and retreat when it unfreezes
Use hit-and-run tactics to bleed it to death with a speed leveled carno
Shoot it with a tek saddle (preferably tapejara or rock drake)
Blow it to hell with a saddled Tropeognathus
Press tab and type 'kill' while looking directly at the giga
The best way to knock out a giga is to make the tail face a cliff and get on a platform saddle quetz and make the giga face the quetz so if the giga runs the cliff blocks the giga from running so you can pump it with trank darts Ps have at least 1000 narcotics
Found mine around LAT 22.9 LON 48.9
Lvl 125 female tamed it with about 2*40 pieces of reg meat 10% per bite with with about 1000 -3000 bio toxin
Took about 100 darts and 100 arrows to knock hope this helps (and one 10% soothing balm)
On mobile you just need this a compound bow can get it with arthro and 4 metal gate 1 large bear trap and when you trapped it spam it with tranq arrows give it some soothing balm 10x and make sure you pack a good amount of bio toxin and now you have a trash giga with 18000 hp instead of 80000 hp
Never fight a Wild Giganotosaurus head on unless you wanna get rekkt!! If you have tamed a low level wild giga e.g 20-85 ish, be careful around Alpha T-Rex’s as they can still pack quite a punch! I nearly lost my level 85 giga because I had no stamina etc.
If you want to encounter a giga in mobile go to Griffen mountain

I've tamed hundreds of giga. This "IS" the best trap.
As for everything else, bring 2x the amount of supplies that you think you will need.
I had a giga glitch on me once and instead of just the 87 shocking tranqs, it took the 100 tranq arrows I happened to have on me...flew back to my base got 400 more and put 200 more tranq arrows into it. Enjoy your new Giga!
This is one of the most anoying to tame
When it goes into rage just keep running and pray that doesn't catch up eat you
The REAL scientific name of the Giganotosaurus translates to “Giant Lizard of the South”, since their fossils have been found mostly in Argentina, South America.
Honestly tho where are the gigas on mobile
What if you don’t have a tribemate with you to bola, you can’t just bola the air. Your toast.
Hello, May I ask if Gigas attack you if you're riding on a raptor in mobile?
Make sure to clear the area from threats as it is a knockout tame. This thing is a rare spawn on mountains. I recommend tranq darts and a longneck rifle to knock it out best bet is kibble to feed it.(torpor lowers quick so bring a lot narcotics hope this helps
