Honestly, the hardest part of taming a giga is keeping up with the torpor and prime meat. knocking out was easy if you got a really good crossbow (400%+ damage).
Never and I mean NEVER fight against a wild Giga with a tame Giga. I have this lvl 59 Giga 100%imprint 33k health and 500+ damage (104%melee damage) and on top of that it has a mastercraft saddle 94.6 armor and another thing that gives 50 more armor so in total it’s 144.6 armor that would cut the wild Giga’s damage by more than half. And so I decided to go against one because I didn’t really need the giga so it didn’t really matter if I lost it or not so I had to battle and the Giga’s health is already down to 46k (I weaken the wild Giga before attacking) and this Giga dropped my Tamed one by half while the Wild Giga only lost 7k😭(single player mode mobile) I was able to escape currently with a really hurt Giga
This thing is fierce and i mean fierce!It has 80,000 hp and does 500 damage (note tamed hve 17,000 and do 200 damage)they also do bleed!
They are rare everywhere a quetzal is really useful since it hovers above a giant safely
For taming, you can use 4 metal dino gateframes and 2 large metal bear traps. Bring 500 narcotics and make sure you have spikes to stop any accidents. Ragnarok is best for finding high level gigas and there are 3 spawns, The Highlands, The Deathsands and by green obelisk. Happy hunting.
As baby’s they eat a ton of food
If you see it’s fat a*s strolling down the mountain, you’d better get yours out of there!!
The only things scarier then a giga is 2 giga's
If you find a giga near your base do the following steps:
Step 1:make a gun
Step 2:shoot yourself in the head
Step 3:start a new life
Step 4:make a grave for any dino you ever known at your new house
It takes me a long time to tame them
If you Knock out a giganotosaurus feed it prim meat
SAFEST way to tame in Mobile:
1. Get a tame from a cave, scorpion/araneo etc. It'll have stealth, you can safely walk along a wild Giga.
2. Get what you need to make your trap. You may place around the Giga, do as you wish, just NOT dismount if Giga isn't trapped!!
Warning: do NOT shoot if Giga isn't trapped, it'll undo stealth and when stealth is undone.......
Three ways of how to tame it based on risk:
1. Get a grappling hook, an argy that is a good 3k and lots of stam aswell as darts/arrows
Instructions
Grapple onto the argy after you are into a place where the giga cannot bite you and start shooting. When it starts to run, whistle your argy to follow it and keep shooting. Very risky because if the giga turn around, your probably dead so keep shooting.
Method 2: Get a bear trap, a high place and tranquilizers aswell as a gate, get a argy too.
Instructions
Put the bear trap down of where the giga will go, when the Giga chases you and gets stuck, put a gate behind it because the high place can vary from a big hill to a mountain. Once it’s in the trap, put the gate behind it and start tranq, the trap should be put near either a structure or something the giga cannot climb.
Method 3: Get 4 gates, 1 - 3 bear traps (large) and tranqd
Put the gates in a shape near a square then put all the bear traps in, when the toga chases you, run past the bear traps and out one of the metal gates, the giga will get stuck and put the last gate behind it.
Tranquilize.
Thanks for listening, don’t die and stay brave, survivors! - slither
Use the bear trap where the
to tame these, use three metal dino gates in a \_/ formation
put 1 or 2 large bear traps inside of the gates, and lure the giga into the trap. once it’s inside of the trap, put 1 or 2 gates on the other side. personally, i do 2 because its safer. after that, it’s trapped, and you can waste 500k narcotics for a level 20 giga
I found one near my base and I tried to lure it away with my freshly tamed 145 argy and a few second later I had a destroyed base and a dead argy, yay.
Fun fact gigas are so difficult to find than quetzal
(In easy mode)
1. Grab platform quetzals
2. Grab entire tribe
3. Bring ascendant longneck rifle
4. Bring gallimimus with 150% speed for bait
5. Make giga follow gallimimus while tribe darts on quetzal
6. Once KO put kibble or raw prime meat (or mutton)
7. Make saddle
8. Level up to 140+
9. Tame another to breed
10. Level up mate to 140+
11. Breed
12. Imprint 100%
13. Level up offspring to 350
14. Brag about your giga
15. DESTROY YOUR ENEMIES!!! >:D
On Ragnarok map in the Highlands by the Red Obelisk there is a river flowing down from the volcano area to the ocean. Just before it gets to the ocean there is an old stone bridge that is part of the map and cannot be destroyed. It is the perfect dimensions to place a metal behemoth gate flush inside it. Go far enough upriver for the Giga to move around a bit and place metal pillars across the river. Everyone in our alliance uses this gate trap to capture and kill or tame Gigas. You just land upriver, walk to within 20ish yds of the pillars, and fire away until the Giga is unconscious
If you are trying to tame this solo, it's best to lure one to a natural rock formation and near a cliff so if it tries to run it won't be able to run up the cliff and if you want to block it even more you can put some Dino gates down and knock it out but be careful because it has a big bite rage
If you want to increase your giga health so you have to breed and imprint it .
