How do I kill a giganotosaurus? giganotosaurus battling strategies in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
Don’t kill if you don’t have backup ammo. Took nearly two Large Storage Boxes worth of ammo until dead. I even used Ascendant longneck and pump-action shotguns and an assault rifle. Killed a level 20 nearly a month ago. Level 20. Wild undomesticated on singleplayer mobile. Sadly it seems to not drop a heart.
If aggro on you, you cannot run, for it runs much faster... i had 150% speed and it caught up imediately. Memorize the area and find your stuff in the next life. Bring a couple low tames with you to distract it so that you can get your stuff.
Boys lets not fool anyone here... If you see a giga and you are on foot you need to immediatly spread your legs and butt cheeks and prepare for impact...
Run, just run
If you are thinking about taking your most op Rex/spino or something like that to a head on fight with a wild giga, remember that the giga’s bleed effect can be devastating. Its bleed reduces your hp by 1% (of your max hp) per second, meaning that whatever op Dino with a op saddle you’re riding WILL die within 100 seconds when fighting a wild giga. So make sure you have enough DPS to kill the giga in 100 seconds. Wild gigas all have ~80k hp so the bare minimum DPS needed is 800. On mobile, there’s a way to actually prevent bleed completely by force feeding your mount a lesser antidote. Still beware tho since a wolf giga without bleed is still as powerful as a high lvl alpha Rex.
Does it spawn on extinction? I’ve seen corrupted ones but are they tameable on extinction? Also never fight gigas, unless you have an insane imprinted giga
While walking on ragnorok for my first time playing the game I see this, I go up to it and next thing you know subway surfer music plays and a level 79 Giga is chasing a level 2 newbie… still haunting to this day.
Even if its a lvl 5 giga dont bring out your rexes cause they will die. It happened to me i had 5 max lvl rexes die today. Rip bubblegum
You can easily kill these on singleplayer by using a Desmodus to bite their back. Gets you lots of blood Pack for Sanguine Elixir too.
How to escape a giga on a mountain
Part 1 if u got a giga on your tail on a mountain
Parachute of the mountain if you land on a flat part of the mountain then run off the edge and keep parachuting till u hit land then (if you have and large bear trap) try to place it behind you and have the giga walk into it place more and more behind you if you have enough then while there trapped in each one keep shooting them oh hitting then with a pump/shotgun if u have one then the giga should die it depends on the amount of hp it has then boom if this does not work out I’m sorry keep trying
I killed one using a pump while on top of a legde it didn't even gave me a lvl 🙄 and it almost broke my pump.
If you get stuck inside it jump off your bird, run, and whistle all.... Remember your not suppose to survive your bird is!
How do you even find one in the first place?
All you gotta do when you see these well if they agroed on you and your on land R.I.P. you if your on a flying mount just fly the heck away from it if it’s not argoed on you just run away as fast as you can
I encountered one when I started and just remember that spot when I come back there is two I prepare to kill the two and 4 spawn. I lost my pt in the battle
This is an insane strategy not many people know about it but it is called... not dying
giga+lag= fastest dino alive. At the first sight of a giga, turn around and run.
Though even slow this living organism is literally almost the devil one thing I can see about this dinosaur he has a bleed ability when he hits a animal or you it’s like the deinosuches but better
I found 2 right next to each other one male and one female I tamed the female should I tame the male so I can breed them Up for yes down for no. Since I know a good giga trap Is why I am asking
I’ve been looking for a giga to tame on extinction for ages now, flying around on my snow owl which I love. I spent weeks looking with no luck. And then suddenly I found one right when I least expected it. This would’ve been great except I don’t have a snow owl anymore
