Encountering Tips

How do I kill a giganotosaurus? giganotosaurus encountering and battling strategies in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
R.I.P. base and tames.
You should definitely poke it.
For the person who asked, while there are no exact coordinates, you are sure to find one of these standing on the side of a large mountain. Both Fars Peak, the volcano and any of the other high places, you should find a Giga somewhere. Hope you find one, I wish you luck!

Can someone please tell me what are the coordinates to finding these guys? I have played ark mobile/ the island for 3 years and I still can’t find a single giga. I have four dinosaur gates, 3 large bear traps, a Mastercraft longneck rifle, a Mastercraft crossbow, 60 tranq darts, 44 tranq arrows, and an ascendant giganotosaurus saddle. I am only level 68 and all this for no giga. Someone please help!!!!!!!
If you can knock it out with your fists and tame it with cooked fish...you are the god of Ark
Both Gigas and Carchs can easily be drowned if they encroach too close to your base. Very little stam so oxygen goes quick, doable with PT but personally find it easier using throwaway raft to hold aggro.
On mobile i found one near griffin mountain
Hey kid...You wanna have a bad time?
I encountered 1 level 13 I had to quit so many times to keep my argen alive it's right near base 2 next to the redwoods I'm scared that my dinos other there are gonna die by it 1 up equals 1 more bit of faith that they will survive.
Gigas when tammed are weaker then when they are in the wild. So a tammed 150 giga has about much health as a lvl 15 Wild giga so if you spot a giga when on your giga freaking run for your life because your perfect tame won't be able to kill it unless it has at least 300% mele
Using a metal ramp, roof, wall, and foundation you can make the giga run to the top of the roof then if you stand on the ground it will keep trying to bite you but its attack hitbox will never reach you. You can then easily kill it if you have enough ammo since if you try to tranq it the giga will end up running away after you used enough tranqs and it will be pretty difficult to catch up to and knock out.
You can’t do anything, just pray that you suffer a quick death
If you are attempting to kill a giga using a powerful tame, you only have about 100 seconds to kill it before the gnashed debuff finishes your tame off or it dies by melee attacks
It’s so funny watching your friends run from the inevitable.
I have seen more titanosaurs and royal griffins than Gigas. Just why, I saw one, a level 15, disappeared when I was ready to tame it, just why o why o why, they debuff these things and they are as rare as a as all creatures, either make em powerful or make them more common, hit that like button. Let’s hope I find one, again.
No don't run toward the giga! Run the other way! Run the OTHER WAY!!!
I found a level 2 giga when flying around ( I know this sounds weak but I am not even close to a good level so this thing will eat me in a instant) and it has slowly been moving forwards my base! What should I do!!!!!!!! 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭🦖
A carcharo with 100 stacks and 250% melee can take one down but you'll be left at less than half health but if its 300% you'll be left at more than half
If you’re trying to kill this bro for the achievement, here’s how I did it. Get yourself a Quetzal with a platform and put about nine auto turrets on it. Put about 100 bullets in each turret and find yourself a Giga. Make sure the turrets are on high range and turn them on as soon as you’re close to the Giga so you waste as little bullets as possible. Just start circling the Giga and stay out of the hit range. Boom, dead Giga in about five minutes.
Be very careful in Ragnarok especially if you are starting out in Scotland as they are common there. I am currently trying not to have a mental breakdown while sitting in a cave listening to it stomp around directly above me...
never get cornered.
