Lead it to green obelisk and knock it out in the shallow water its perfect to use as a giga taming pen.
Real tamer’s test. Will put both your patience and your ability to keep something down.
P.S.: if it seems stuck in a terrain, SURROUND IT WITH GATES. It’ll get out sooner or later.
God mode can be a blessing and a curse at time R.I.P lvl 150
I did encourage a giga in the center i didn't run away but i did fight it then trapped it this morning. Then i tamed it.
If you’re on mobile and looking for one to tame, tidy save your game, wait five minutes and look on the mountain connecting to the volcano. I always find one
Be careful even if it’s tamed
you why
Well if they rage and there tamed in you base
It will still kill and brake everything you ever owned
And kill every Dino but if it dose not kill all of them and stopes raging
You might have a chance
If you are In ascended you won’t need a trap because they almost always spawn in the mesh
For old ark mobile only: The best way to tame a giga like all others, is to trap it with metal gates. You can even do it close to it on a mount really. Just make sure not to dismount. Then, set a tiny camp with a roof on a sleeping bag to starve the giga. Forcing it to eat super fast. Also make sure to use soothing balm with it as well as using big bird kibble. After a few seconds depending on the giga’s level, you have yourself a hugely nerfed dino
Just pelted one with 100 Tranq darts and it still didn't go down, note to self, bring more next time.
Forget about needing a bunch of dino gates and bear trap. Search up "How to build a giga taming trap" by Captain Fatdog on YouTube. Only need 4 pillars, basically. Works like a charm, EZPZ
U actually just need 3 Metal dino gates and a large bear trap to knock a giga , just place 2 metal gates like a top side of triangle / \ , then place the large bear trap. Lure the giga to the trap , then place the last metal gates behind it . Just make sure the gap isnot very big. Then shoot it with about 150 tranq arrow and there u knocked it out.
If you have a 500%+ dmg rifle and shocking tranq darts dont even hesitate to tame a giga, it doesnt even matter what lvl. Just make sure you have the narcs and kibble
Bring more tranq arrows then you think you’ll need
Whatever you do, DON’T let him hug you.
Fun fact: if your Giga takes a lot of burst damage, it’ll enter Rage Mode for 20 seconds.
Less fun fact: during this time, it’ll throw you off and you’ll be a potential target.
If your Giga is angry, run. There’s nothing else you can do but watch the carnage and pray that it gets its fill within those 20 seconds.
If you are taking a giga DO NOT pick up your trap until it is tamed.
Once you get giga eggs and everyone tells you how much the Gigas eat when growing up don’t listen to them. I play completely solo on official 1x and can raise these things with a Maewing and a tek trough. 1 giga eats about 1 to 1.5 tek troughs every 24 hours. So if you have 2 or 3 tek troughs of raw meat and it’s a juvenile or above you can step away from ark and GO OUTSIDE AND GET FRESH AIR. Also a maewing filled with cooked meat can last a giga through the whole baby stage without the meat spoiling before baby stage ends. So a recap is baby stage use maewing with slot cap of cool meat and then use raw meat in a few tek troughs. Easy raise. I do this solo on official 1x
