Tips & Strategies
To everyone who wants to tame a Giga and wants to use a Trap. The best one is the one where you use 14 Meta Pillars.(I can speak of experience it Always works) Of course you can use the Metal Gate Trap as well. But for the one with the Metal Pillars you need less Ressources and it is easier and faster to build. Also remember that the floor must be quite flat for this trap, otherwise the Giga can run over the metal pillars.If you keep this in mind, it is easy to tame a giga. If you need help building the trap, you should watch the Giga Trap video by Captain Fatdog. It helped me a lot.
More Giganotosaurus Taming & KO Tips
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. Itβs 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 itβs caught in the bear trap. When itβs 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. Itβs recommended for a tribe-mate to help you.
START FEEDING: put the food in the gigaβs inventory and keep an eye on itβs torpor.
I hope this was helpful π
I was looking to metal to make a saddle then I said to my brother βi am going to tame a gigaβ 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 donβt have tranq dartsπ 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
For level 150, the dododex said 100% chance of death with pachy primary attack... its actually not talking about the giga
Its the pachy....

I 100% recommend charging straight on a Giga with a wooden club, you wonβt regret it.
Just lure into a metal gate set ups some plant Xs and it will knock out you welcome
