What are tips for giganotosaurus? Tips and strategies for giganotosaurus in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
For people who can’t find gigas (mobile), go on the grass plain between griffin mountain and frozen tooth, tidy save and add it in your backup data.After that, roam around frozen tooth and you should see the giga.If you aren’t satisfied with the level/gender then go back to the backup and restore the save.When you go back to the spot where you find your first giga you should see a different one.Repeat until you find the right one
For people trying to tame this thing, Make a trap, if u dont u will possibly miss some shots, and with the long reload time, when ur done reloading this thing will already have 0 torpor again, they drop around 600 torpor per second if you dont hit them with tranqs within 6 seconds per shot, if u wait more than 6 secs per shot ur basically making absolutely no progress
Can someone actually puts tips here that could help rather just saying run and stuff cuz I generally want to know how to find one
Search YouTube for ‘Captain Fatdog Giga Trap’. It costs the fraction of the materials of a typical gate trap and is way less risky. Just a few metal pillars is all you need. Fatdog traps are the way to go!
For 100 lvl giga
It takes me around 500 tranq aross 4 crossbows
200 bio toxin 100 narcotics
30 prime meat
4 metal gates 2 large bear trap
At 0.1 consumption speed and 0.1 taming with a level 9999 gigs it will take 7522687 days to tame, along with 576830857 narcotics.
Fun facts if you want to know more about the giganotosaurus!
-Gigas can be found in moutain-like areas on many of Ark's maps. They have a saddle unlock at level 96.
-To tame them, you must knock it out. This is very tricky, as they can destroy stone and do hundreds of damage per bite.
-Wild gigas have 80,000 health, while tame ones have only around 18,000 health. Becuase of this, it is NOT recommended to fight a wild giga with a tamed giga.
-Gigas have a rage meter that fills up whenever it takes too much damage in a certain time period. When enraged, it will dismount you and will attack everything around it, including you.
-They are one of the few creatures you cannot take into boss arenas. However, this does not apply to Extinction's titans, as they have open-world arenas.
That's all! Up if this was helpful.
I just got a slingshot and used 4942 rocks
Dude… dont go up to one unprepared. No matter the tame your on (unless if its like, really, really good) it. Will. Hurt.
When you think a high level rock elemental can kill a low level giga think again
Rip Rock Elemental
If you’ve tamed one of these, but you’re not lvl 96, run cave of the strong… you’ll get a giga saddle blueprint.
I’m on mobile, so I don’t know about consoles and stuff, but if you cave tame an arthro, you can run the strong cave EASILY. Just take a few fria curry and about ten-fifteen medical brews at the least. Nothing will attack you, and you get some of the best loot in the game. I literally did this cave right after the hunter cave… that’s how easy it was. And look at me! Level 74 and I got me a giga!
You all can do it too! 🔺if found helpful
I see way to meany people use narcotics to keep things asleep,USE FLIPPING BIOTOXIN! It gives 80 torpor and doesn’t do damage, narcotics do 40
Dude, for real, try to help the people that want to find one, use other category to talk this stuff...
For those that want to find one on mobile try the center metal volcano on the realy top or the two ice montains in the top also.
Captain Fatdog on YouTube has a very cheap trap. 98 cementing paste and 350 metal I think. Thanks for reading.
I have actually tried using a slingshot on a giga to knock it out. It broke, so I had to repair it many times. It took over 1k rocks-
When you've found a suitable level Giga, find a tall cliff/ledge to shoot from. If stuck on flat land, turn to a platformed Quetz or th backseat of a Tapejara to shoot off of. I recommend to have two or more tribe mates on this tame.
