What are tips for giganotosaurus? Tips and strategies for giganotosaurus in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
If you see one near you base and you can't kill it or tame it use a pterodon and go somewhere safe and shoot it to get it's attention and lead it to some where not near you base
I accidentally waited a .000001 second too long and ran out of arrows
😭😭😭😭 it ate my lighting Wyvern as well . RIP Zap. Do not make this mistake.
use your flying pet if you don't have a material to craft a metal gate, or go to underwater and Tame it (note: no hostile water creatures near you)
Easy tame just bola and slingshot
DO NOT I repeat DO NOT try taming one of these bad boys by flying with an argey to a ledge and shooting the giga. You will drain your ammo, break your gun, kill your argey then fall off the cliff only to be devouered by this ravonous beast. I lost my favorite argey. R.I.P Amara, you were such a good companion.
If you are lucky enough to currently own an Ascendent Longneck Rifle, go for this tame. ive found that with an Ascendent level Longneck, it only takes roughly 80 tranq darts to take this beast down
Stop it with the ‘ bola your tribemate and run’ YOUR STILL DEAD!
...no...
Just...no.
I mean it, no.
If you want to tame this creature be FULLY PREPARED. Go with some tribe members and it'll be very tough but if you manage to tame it and not die you will have one of the most op dinos on the server. Good f****** luck
Trap it, shoot it until it begins to run, use a high melee mantis to left, right, goodnight it. Very fun.
The babies eat a TON. Expect to go on multiple meat runs. They also need special care in the very beginning, where they can only hold up to four meat in their inventory. I’ve never used a trough, but I’m going to, because maybe that will give me a little more free time. I also recommend building a large pen around them with a dinosaur gate. They will eventually get too big to get through the gate, but they work for the first half of their baby life. The pen is to keep them safe, and also from running away if the unexpected enemy attacks you or one of your dinos.
A real life Rex could easily kill a giga as it had stronger jaws and teeth plus the fighting style
Three of these spawned near my base out of no where, and then I tried to lead them to at least two or three brontosaurus, two died, and one got killed by like, 4 trikes, and I never got to see what stuff they had inside them, these things can see you from far away, and are extremely fast, so only encounter them when you know you could win
I ran away on my bird immediately when I saw one.😬
Guys is it a glitch? I tame a giga and the melee is only 20% but when it's in the wild it almost 3shot my dire bear that have around 10k HP
If you play ark mobile I recommend a tapejara and 1-3 bear traps and min 4 metal Dino gateways 1 needs 170 metal ingots build your trap and lure in make sure you aren’t too close then fly directly up now you got it trapped and now you wait for a few days and come back then you better start taming the food would have dropped lol you just feed it some and now you have a killer machine
If you got a fast Dino hop on it and run
These guys lose torpor so quickly so have loads of spare narcotics depending on your settings
