If you’re on mobile and looking for one to tame, tidy save your game, wait five minutes and look on the mountain connecting to the volcano. I always find one

These savages are so OP in the wild, only one or two spawn in the ark so it doesn't wipeout every single lifeform in the server. You don't have to worry about running into a Giga cause' they only spawn in the mountains on the island

Real tamer’s test. Will put both your patience and your ability to keep something down.

P.S.: if it seems stuck in a terrain, SURROUND IT WITH GATES. It’ll get out sooner or later.

I tamed one using my argy with 10k hp. I built 2 metal gates around a bear trap (a common trap a lot of people use.) However I kept messing up and having to demolish my gates. After making multiple mistakes I found out that metal billboards work too. (the big signs. not the little ones.) Also, my 10k hp argy couldn’t tank it for long to lead it into the trap. The giga I tamed was lvl 25 and it was still hitting for like 400 dmg per bite. You’re never invincible with these things. I brought about 600 tranq arrows and over 1k narcotics (overpreparing is much better than underpreparing.) I lead it down to the beach to trap it. Its a flat area so it works well. Lead it into the bear trap, place billboards or gates behind it, and then shoot it like crazy with tranqs. (it should be 100% stuck by the time you start shooting.) Also, honorable mention! IT RUNS FASTER THAN ARGYS. I havent tried with Ptera but they have trash health anyways.

Just pelted one with 100 Tranq darts and it still didn't go down, note to self, bring more next time.

Lead it to green obelisk and knock it out in the shallow water its perfect to use as a giga taming pen.

Forget about needing a bunch of dino gates and bear trap. Search up "How to build a giga taming trap" by Captain Fatdog on YouTube. Only need 4 pillars, basically. Works like a charm, EZPZ

Be careful even if it’s tamed

you why

Well if they rage and there tamed in you base

It will still kill and brake everything you ever owned

And kill every Dino but if it dose not kill all of them and stopes raging

You might have a chance

U actually just need 3 Metal dino gates and a large bear trap to knock a giga , just place 2 metal gates like a top side of triangle / \ , then place the large bear trap. Lure the giga to the trap , then place the last metal gates behind it . Just make sure the gap isnot very big. Then shoot it with about 150 tranq arrow and there u knocked it out.

Giga is a behemoth by all means. But healing it can prove somewhat.. problematic. I have a hard time healing mine due to the massive health pool.

Give these behemoths a platform saddle so I can move my tames with a giga pls give them it I would appreciate it🤗

Bring more tranq arrows then you think you’ll need

If you have a 500%+ dmg rifle and shocking tranq darts dont even hesitate to tame a giga, it doesnt even matter what lvl. Just make sure you have the narcs and kibble

What do u use this big back for if it's not pvp? Hm?

I mean don't get me wrong it's op as hell but be for real

Other than a trophy to flex

This thing is dog water, don't believe me? Here

Trash stamina

A diabolical amount of resources to tame this

Can be used for bosses

Turns on ya

Like be fr it's trash outside of pvp

Whatever you do, DON’T let him hug you.

Paleo ark:evolution makes this behemoth look 1000x better and same with the Rex, such smooth animations new roars, and you can actually level the gigas health, got one of them to 60k health, you can also bring them to boss battles, you can only bring 2 tho or else they will go berserk and murk your whole army (this happened to me, it did 3x the damage of the alpha broodmother) over all great mod and I still think without it it’s better than the carcha, the only way a carcha would be better is if it has like 60+ kill frenzy

If you are taking a giga DO NOT pick up your trap until it is tamed.

Once you get giga eggs and everyone tells you how much the Gigas eat when growing up don’t listen to them. I play completely solo on official 1x and can raise these things with a Maewing and a tek trough. 1 giga eats about 1 to 1.5 tek troughs every 24 hours. So if you have 2 or 3 tek troughs of raw meat and it’s a juvenile or above you can step away from ark and GO OUTSIDE AND GET FRESH AIR. Also a maewing filled with cooked meat can last a giga through the whole baby stage without the meat spoiling before baby stage ends. So a recap is baby stage use maewing with slot cap of cool meat and then use raw meat in a few tek troughs. Easy raise. I do this solo on official 1x

Fun fact: if your Giga takes a lot of burst damage, it’ll enter Rage Mode for 20 seconds.

Less fun fact: during this time, it’ll throw you off and you’ll be a potential target.

If your Giga is angry, run. There’s nothing else you can do but watch the carnage and pray that it gets its fill within those 20 seconds.

A week ago, I saw a lvl 120 giga. I thought it's just a little bit stronger than a rex and tried to tame it with a mastercraft crossbow and 35 tranq arrows. 35 Tranq arrows. 35 freaking tranq arrows. Biggest mistake in my life.. rip my mastercraft crossbow.
