ARK: Survival Evolved & Ascended Companion
Tips & Strategies
Saturday the 25th of september 2021, I have tamed my first Giga. I’m on mobile, I used 4 metal dinosaur gates and 1 large bear trap. I placed 3 gates in a square shape with gaps at the corners, if you put them at snap points it will be too small, I placed a large bear trap in the middle. I then got the Gigas attention and it followed me through the trap and the large bear trap activated, then go around and place the last metal dinosaur gate to prevent it from escaping. Then fire at the Giga with your tranq ammo at your will, when it falls unconscious, put your food of choice inside it’s inventory and maintain its torpor so it doesn’t wake up, I would recommend using soothing balm IF YOU ARE ON MOBILE.

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 😊
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!
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.
Just lure into a metal gate set ups some plant Xs and it will knock out you welcome
TO THE GUY THAT SAID METAL SIGNPOSTS WORK, IT JUST WALKS RIGHT OVER THEM.
f for my argy
It takes about 5000 stone and 125 slingshots to knock one out
Anyone up to the challenge vote u
Make a club. Find one hit it with the club untill it is unconscious. Put mejoberys in its inventory. And wait shouldn’t take that long to tame.
Boom now you have your do- oh wrong page
