What are tips for giganotosaurus? Tips and strategies for giganotosaurus in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
On singleplayer, you can easily tame a giga with cooked fish meat by:
1. Making sure your giga is knocked out
2. Wait until its torpor is low but not on the cusp of the giga waking up
3. Spam all required narcotics to make its torpor high again (or every one if the amount of required narcotics equates to not even all of its torpor)
4. Place down a bunk bed, sleep, die after you wake up, respawn fast enough to get back your bunk bed
5. Repeat step 4 until your giga is tamed or step 3 if you need to use more of your narcs
6. Enjoy +16 levels if you did it with a lvl 150 giga
Run away quickly before it sees you bc if it does ur done
If you are on mobile ane playing Easy difficulty... Just waste time on him its not worth it... Wild Giga can one bite and kill your dino but once you tame him (which is way difficult because of his fastest torpor drain) he even fail to kill a Patchy or Dodo in one bite 😭 I am on lvl 75 and made saddle using expensive resources... This dino is sh!t once tamed ❌
Me and my friend were trying to get wyverns on rag when we found a Giga. Don’t judge us we were you and nieve so we lured it in the trench! Little did we know it did in fact kill all the wyverns so we grab all the eggs unfortunately we ran out of Stam… It was a bloody battle

I saw a giga and a titanosaur.
I lead the giga to the titan and the titan didnt even do anything. It died🥲
Easiest way to tame is probably to take an Argie, a grappling hook, a longneck, and a LOT of tranq/shocking darts. One person flies the argie above the gigs, the other person hangs below and shoots. If you have enough people you can have multiple chasing it from the sky and shooting, making the whole process go faster. Then, just guard it’s fine give it narcs and wait, and your tribe now has a giga
NEVER ever get your tamed giga’s health to be under 50% or lower, it will activate RAGE mode. Rage mode is an aggressive stance that eats on EVERYTHING including you and your tames even if it’s tamed. Becareful of using the giga against a powerful dino or jumping of a cliff while riding a giga, entering rage mode while riding a giga will kick you off it’s saddle and eat you. Rage mode typically lasts for 20 seconds, however rage mode will buff the giga into a deadly machine! Rage mode buff will make your giga’s damage to 2x the damage. You might notice it’s glowing eyes when you suspect it to be in rage mode. I may be suggesting you removing your best weaponry and Armor to your base when your about to ride your giga anytime if you want for a risky stunt/adventure. After its rage mode finished it’s timer, it will go back to normal and it’s still tamed if your worried.
this is tip just for ark mobile... to tame giga you need Quetz kibble. If you dont have it I highly recomend using raw prime meat. if y EVEN dont have it use cooked prime meat. To knock out giga I highly recomend using toxicant arrovs.
Put three metal behemoth gateways making a kind of U like this: \_/ then just lead it in, and place on more on the opening and it’s trapped. In the end, the trap should look like this: __ I mean kinda. It can’t get out now, just tranq
\_/ And give it a bunch of mutton. Make sure you have biotoxin to force feed it when torp gets low. Once it’s tamed, level up it’s damage to 100% that’s all you need and now just level up stam and whatever else you want u have a magnificent battle creature
You can find Gigas on the snowy mountains.
Easy breed but don't walk away while hand feeding. And prepare to live 11 days in 3 to 4 hour intervals if you want 100% imprint. Mine is 2 days from completion and with imprinting is at 291.4 mellee. Born at 245 mellee lvl 231 female.
They are way faster than so watch out
ALTERNATIVE METHOD (for mobile)
kill it
revive it* (at obelisk, preferably green)
make it fall off the cliff while you stand at the little platform just above that
tranq it while it tries to bite you (youre in the range of the bite, but you wont take dmg and the giga wont run away once in a while)
*average giga implant costs 24 amber, max takes 48
When hatching a giga egg on mobile you will need about 7-10 standing torches (Angler Gel reccomended) and then you need to wait 5 hours (be very careful if it’s too hot or too cold) this is going to take a while, If you want to fully imprint. Make a save file about 20 seconds before the egg hatches and then keep restoring save file until you get the cuddle or walk ones, then after doing that you wait for 30 minutes then save data in about 20 or 10 (depends on you) seconds before the imprint quest finishes you just keep restoring data until you get cuddle or walk and repeat. Congrats you now have a 100% imprint giga
Got a wyvern now I don't anymore
While taming a gigs I recommend using 5 behemoth metal gate in a row and put 1 behemoth metal door on each end. Bring at least 400 tranq arrows or 350 trans darts or 300 shocking tranqs.
Wild Gigas are walking Black air forces.
The tamed ones are the complete opposite
