What are tips for giganotosaurus? Tips and strategies for giganotosaurus in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
Thinking about taming one of these beasts!
Difficulty 10/10 very hard (not necessarily hard but not easy and time consuming)
What you will need.
A lot of tranqs (1-2k for a 180)
5-6 Metal gates
Large bear trap
30 exceptional kibble (just my suggestion you can use less)
Around 1k extra narcotics
How to trap
Place metal gates in a hexagon like shape with a gate in your inventory
Place a large bear trap in the middle
Get the gigas attention and run like you’ve never run before
After it steps in the bear trap place the gate in your inventory behind it
Taming
Shoot it with tranqs DO NOT STOP
It’s torpor drops insanely fast and is insanely high (probably around 100k torpor for a 180)
Once it is out put all your narcotics in its inventory
Keep your kibble in your inventory and pump a couple narcotics every 2-3 minutes
After the beasts food goes down a bit put the kibble in its inventory and let it eat
Continue to pump narcotics every 2-3 minutes until it tames
Feel like I should mention to only pump about ten narcotics each time and now I feel like that about sums up how to tame a Giganotosaurus so survive and good luck taming survivors

To tame this beast u have to build 4 metal dinosaur gate because giga can't attack it and u have to use ascendant longneck from hunt dire bear and to trap giga use herbivore creature and use it as a bait good luck
How to tame a giga
1-get 4 metal gate way not (behemoth) 3 can work but 4 is easier
2- place the gate way like this |_|
3-place a large bear trap in the middle
4-get the giga aggro'd to you and lead it in the trap
5-once the giga is stuck in the bear trap quickly go put the last piece of dino gate way the trap should look like this □
6-then just ahoot shocking tranquilizer darts ,tranq darts and it should be knocked out
Thank you
Watch out,
because he will kill you with one chomp if you not careful,
because he has bleeding effect and he's a MONSTER!
pov: you’re trying to play ragnarok normally
As narcoberries take many seconds to apply torpor, feed them these as a few hundred may stop the ridiculous torpor drain for ten or so minuites.
Saw one in the snow biome while riding my 46% imprinted Spino, I was looking for alpha rexes that time.
Luckily the giga ignored my Spino and we had enough time to get away.
Once I saw Giga a few days after starting my world and I wanted to see what level it was (without a spyglass) so I got close to it with my pteranodon and let’s just say me and my pteranodon had a good time in heaven after that.
To make it easier just use forcetame
Have a another dinosaur to make a diversion while you run like crazy
Don't be a wuss and knock them out with your bare hands:human
41k hp with 2500 dmg T rex can kill a lv 95 giga, iv done it.
If you want to tame without the dino gate trap method (specifically on the map The Island as that's where I tried it), make sure you know where all the waterfalls are. Then find a Giga and let it follow you to the waterfall. Make it fall down the water fall. You should be at the top of the waterfall and shoot narc arrows/whatever better option you have. Best to ride a flying creature with high stamina and health incase you get hit by it while you make the Giga follow you (it'll only follow when you land). Best waterfall to do this is the one next to the 2 snowy mountains, along that river up north/northwest ish, as it has both tall sides for it to get stuck in.
ARK SHOW THOUGHTS (part 2)
Realizing there’s about only 1 or 2 spawned Gigas on each map they spawn on
If you saw my previous tip on taming and knock out about how I just knocked out a giga, a few minutes after I knocked it out I went to harvest more raw meat for him to eat, when I came back I saw a pack of raptors killing my giga. I shot them all but when I finally got to the giga it was dead.
You can you metal billboards to tame instead of dino gateways saves you alot of metal, just make sure to set them in flat ground doing it on a hill will not work(:
>HOW TO TAME<
Firstly….. DONT
I’m a counsel player and me and two other of my friends are playing an unofficial sever where the rates are crazy and we are going to Ragnorok with a griffin I’ll be the one riding it and they are going to grapple onto the griffin and they will then shoot it with shocking tranq darts then we are going to cryo it and then we find another one and do the same thing until we have a really good breeding couple then we will level the baby up to max and hopefully rule the server
Use a stun gun much easier it knocks out after like 1,000,000,000 hits
if you are alibe use an ascendant crosbow is beter for solo taming a long neck is good if you tame whit 3 or 4 people
