The last Metal (has to be metal) gateway and boom its trapped! Also gigas are most commonly found by mountains! Hope this helped!
When I was looking for a carca on the snow mountain I found a 104 giga and I found a rg with beautiful calaors and when I looked at the spy glass the giga took 1 bite of of me but I have 20 hp left but the bleed killed me and my rg 😰
It's almost impossible to kill a level 20 wild giga with a perfect 150 tamed giga, you need to breed 2 high level giga's and have a strong saddle to even stand a chance if you're trying to kill a wild giga. Remember that every wild giga has 80,000 health points.
I tamed a 450 giga on fars peak! Took 500+ tranq arrows with a 469% crossbow in 2 hrs. Super worth it! I had to reset my save 3 times bc I accidentally killed it. It one shot my griffin with 5k hp!!! Pray for my Dorcermu! 😭
Taming (5x) to a LV145 will required roughly 460 Shocking Tranquilizer Darts and about 150 Narcotics. I guess the app is not accurate at all. So good luck to tame one of those...you need it ;)
You can humiliate/tame any giga with a sinomacrops(Lost Island) which has at least 2500+ stamina.
To tame u need 5 metal doors, 2 large bear traps. It breaks threw stone so dont be cheap! Also it's fav food is not prime meat it's raw mutton. The wild gigas have more hp then a tamed, also they have a gnash attack like a ravager. For a high level u will Need about 800 narc arrows, 200 narcotics just to be safe.
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 you're using primitive weapons bring a few!!
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.
4 metal gateways.
1-2 large bear trap.
Tranq arrow, lots of tranq arrows, a little more than what you decided.
Few narcotics or biotoxin,few more, I mean take free more, feeling encumbered.... You are ready.
Patience... Take a deep breathe level of patience...
Soothing balm or a decade of your life.
Prime meat or quetzal kibble(mobile).
You heard wolf? Kill em.
Congrats you get a giga.
Giga died of hunger...
Guys I used a quetzal with a platform saddle on and it worked a dream!! It only took 10 minutes to get the guy down but I also had a tribemate shooting shocking tranq darts too
use narcoberries not narcotics when taming as the torpor stacks better over a longer period. also when knocking out be sure to bola your tribe mate first
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...
Get a snow owl or argy and make sure it has a decent amount of life. Find your Giga and get slightly out of range of it. Set up 4 metal behemoth gates in box formation, but leave the door off the 4th wall facing the Giga. Get on your snow owl and aggro him. You may need to be low for him to follow, so do expect 3-5 bites from it as you lead the Giga into the cage, but often you can do it damage free. Each bite ranges from 200-500 damage depending on lvl, so make sure you can survive the damage.
When you fly up against the back wall, let him bite once more so you know he’s in. Fly up, turn around quick and hotbar the last door in, but stay above him. Fly out and land on top of the gate post. Carefully dismount... I’ve had some funny falls into the cage, but now I use a tek suit and keep my bird far away. Unless the ground is raised/rocky below, he shouldn’t be able to chomp you either way. You may need to bring a few hundred tranqs for high lvl ones, but plug away at him as he runs corner to corner. Bring some spare crossbows or rifles. Have some kibble, or mutton handy (# depending on your server rates) and throw it in his inventory when he goes down. Gigaty gigaty goo!
