Tips & Strategies
Knocked out a giga with a catapult turret on tge back of my quetz
This method works great for taming! Knocked out WAY faster! Save your tranqs! Not worth the amount of time and resources you use for tranqs!
Use 2 metal dino gateways with doors, 2 metal behemoth gates with doors, and 4 large bear traps to keep it trapped long enough to close the door
Keep just enough space for you to squeeze your character through the cracks
It'll be too busy attacking the structure and you can walk right up to it with a magnifying glass at it's foot
Sit in front of it with your quetz at a safe distance and aim for its head
Feed mutton for quick taming if you don't have kibble, but on most servers, you should let it starve a little first for best effectiveness
We tamed ours on Just Survive cluster Ragnarock on ps4 ^^
You should join! Just tell them Church sent you ^^
More Giganotosaurus Taming & KO Tips
I have one of these I will tell you how I got mine I was on a big hillside
So I could shoot it from the top I need 150 arrows the taming ones
Mine was a level 20 so you might need more than I did make sure you have prime meat it will tame faster than regular it wakes up really easily so make sure you have narcotic with you I need 200.so you might want more just in case hopefully this helps please like it if it helps ๐๐ป
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. Itโs 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 itโs caught in the bear trap. When itโs 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. Itโs recommended for a tribe-mate to help you.
START FEEDING: put the food in the gigaโs inventory and keep an eye on itโs torpor.
I hope this was helpful ๐
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.
I was looking to metal to make a saddle then I said to my brother โi am going to tame a gigaโ 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 donโt have tranq darts๐ wish us luck!
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
Just lure into a metal gate set ups some plant Xs and it will knock out you welcome
I 100% recommend charging straight on a Giga with a wooden club, you wonโt regret it.
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
I knocked one out with a HUGE amount of froggoโs I started with 35 frogs all level 100-150 and by the time he fell I had 4 frogs one ^ is a frog memory!
