ARK: Survival Evolved & Ascended Companion
Tips & Strategies
In ragnarok in the highlands there are fingers sticking out of the ground in the middle there is a trench use a flyer to lure the giga into the trench then one person goes in one side the other group goes on the opposite side, don’t fall in and shoot away until it gets knocked.
If it comes out one of the ends fly on top of one of the fingers then lure it back into the trench but only move if it is actually out of the trench. There are Ovis near the trench use mutton
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'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.
I knocked down a 145 gig with 196 traq darts and 220 traq arrows with master craft bow. And used 20 yellow kibble. This is all on one times and the map is island around volcano ark ascented.
I knocked down a 145 gig on ark assented with 196 darts and 220 arrow with master craft bow! The map was island at volcano
Just lure into a metal gate set ups some plant Xs and it will knock out you welcome
If you are on mobile here is a tip for you
Craft 4 big billboard and then craft a 7 giant bear trap place it on flat surface and also kill all the carnivores around you so i it won't disturb during your taming procession, put 3 big billboards around, and left some one big Billboard on your hotbar then put the 7 giant bear trap, if you have trapped the giga on the 3 billboards with 7 bear trap go patch the last billboard. Warning! If the torpor of the giga are almost full he can flea away but it won't hurt you instead he is the one who would be scared. Fact☝🏻.big billboards won't get damaged for some reason and it's important for trapping any dinos. Sorry for my grammar just trying too help😁
