What are tips for giganotosaurus? Tips and strategies for giganotosaurus in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
What you try and tame one you can grapple onto it's butt and start tranqing it (you will need about 350 tranq arrows and 3 crossbows).
WARN!
When gigas take a certain amount of damage or lose a certain amount of health in a short period of time, they become enraged and kill everything in its path, even its allies.
ANALYZE
Gigas can enrage, when enraged they are uncontrollable and you cannot ride them. They will attack any nearby creature, in its sight, AKA KOS, Kill On Sight. Luckily this only lasts 20 seconds. If a giga loses 45% of health out of 80,000 or a tamed giga has 7-5k out of 17k then it rages. The giga will become enraged if it falls a large distance, gets a powerful attack by another Dino, or alpha king stomp, it goes mad.
Possible solution..?
when riding your giga, make sure to have a cryopod of a fast tame, or just have it following you like gallimimus, when the giga rages or is about to rage it should kick you off, and/or you have to hop off and uncryo the tame (it is recommended to have it follow you since cryo sickness is a thing. Cryo sickness is similar to having a Dino knocked out and it has to wake up by itself) hop on the game and run! When the giga rages it should have a red skull. Enjoy playing ark and stay safe! (Sorry if I’m wrong💔)
you can use a wooden club.First craft a wooden club and then encounter hit it and then you re gonna respawn
TO TAME THE GIGANOTOSAURUS YOU WILL NEED THESE THINGS
4 METAL DINOSAUR GATES
1 LARGE BEAR TRAP
MAKE IT ON FLAT GROUND AND PLACE THE FIRST ONE IN THE OPPOSITE SIDE OF THE GIGA AND THE OTHER TWO ON THE SIDES MAKE SURE THEY SHOULD BE CONNECTED AND THE LARGE BEAR TRAP IN THE MIDDLE OR A LITTLE BIT CLOSER TO THE FIRST ONE NOW AGGRO THE GIGANOTOSAURUS AND LEAD IT INTO THE TRAP AND IF IT GETS CAUGHT IN THE BEAR TRAP QUICKLY GO BEHIND IT AND PLACE THE FOURTH GATE NOW IT IS TRAPPED
IF YOU PLAY ON MOBILE LIKE I DO THEN USE A SOOTHING BALM AND THE SLEEP STARVATION TRICK TO INSTANTLY TAME IT
Best way to tame this guy is get a flying Dino to fly above it grapple onto your Dino and then switch to a different weapon and load him up with tranqs.
Shoot it as much as you can as quickly as you can i know dodex says not to but if your weapon breaks you can repair it and the Giga won’t lose torpor or if the server lags
This guy took me 1 hour to tame
It does fake torpor runs, dint be me just built a trap
Don’t approach without a flyer or you’ll be slapped into infinity.
Rip my kangaroo
One day I was riding my pteranodon trying to get one away from a mountain to tame it and apparently it one shots pteranodons with 500 health
When encountering a TAMED giga, 1 RPG to the head will enrage it. This is a great way to counter giga griefers.
How to tame a giga
Step 1 tame an army of scorpions
Step 2 give scorpions max damage
Step 3 set aggressive
Step 4 trap a giga you want
Step 5 set your scorpions from 4 different directions into the trap
Step 6 give giga food and narcotics
Step 7 kill every dino that's ever hurt you
If your going to kill this mofo I would not get a DODO ARMY OR PEGO ARMY I WOULD GET BOTH lol
If you want to make a trap the giga can’t break the metal gateway
One does not simply tame a giga without a few deaths
Despite having a paddle the size of a boat for a tail the Giga is incapable of moving beyond a babies crawl speed in water. Lure it far enough away from land and this mighty behemoth will give up on life and quietly sink beneath the waves.
WARNING: Takes an absurdly long time to actually drown. Possibly do to being a Sith Lord.
Well....nobody told me that if you take two tame level 160 gigas to fight a wild level 20 that BOTH of your gigas would perish! Should have taken the wolves /s
Always remember that if you encounter this creature on the ground, the best thing to do is stick your head between you legs and kiss your butt goodby.
