What are tips for giganotosaurus? Tips and strategies for giganotosaurus in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
Use a trap it’s SO much cheaper and you can actually tame it. if you play ark mobile you can use battlements (big walls) and go to the lava cave to get good longnecks I did that and I now have 3 gigas at level 84 (I’m at level 84) the third one is breeded
I think my game is bugged cause these guys went from instant death to they don’t even attack me?
I recommend finding an area with a ravine or divot that the giga can not walk over and trapping the ends with metal giant Dino gates. After this just unload into it with darts and claim your prize
K.I.S.S. Trap. This trap can trap nearly anything, including a giga. Similar to the metal gate trap but far cheaper. Four metal billboard signs and one large bear trap. (Bring extra traps just to be certain). Make a U with three and keep the last in your inventory on the hot bar. Make the giga chase you into the trap, if on a mount jump over the signs I recommend a thyla because they can be pretty tanky, jump really well and can outrun a giga. Once the giga is in the trap, and it triggers the bear trap, run behind place the billboard. This trap can be used on a rex, allo, theri, carno, bear, etc. I’ve only had an issue using it so far with a spino. Cheap easy trap. KEEP IT SIMPLE SWEET K.I.S.S.
You could actually just use metal billboards, 5 - 9 billboards are needed just make a makeshit circle but leave an opening big enough for the Giga to enter lay a large bear trap inside, once the Giga enters, lay the last billboards to complete the circle.
I used 5 for my first Giga, but you have to be fast to lay the last billboard
Get four behemoth metal gates with gate frames a big bear trap a thyla and a couple of grapples cuz you probably don't want your thyla to die a couple beds or sleeping bags ( just in case you die) make the gates to a square put the bear trap in the middle put to gates down ( where it's not gonna come from) and with the thyla or you put the rest of the gates down grapple to the top of the gates(have your thyla get it agro to it so you can be safe) and have kibble/mutton or whatever meat you have get alot of arrows or darts and then you can tame it and have fun
Giga will spawn in the highlands biomes in ragnorock.
Giganatosaurs is less stamina but melee damage is ultimate
These things are bad to the bone I mean they do so much damage
So late game tip - Get a quetz get the platform saddle for the quetz and shoot down with a Acendant Longneckrifle it will take a while may i add but it's worth it worked for me
I've run into several Gigas in Ragnarok. Always scared the heck out of me.
On gen2 just use the tek armor to fly over it, ez tame!
I didn’t see any tips on this and this is pretty important. When taming one of these you will NEED a trap. The reason is when your shooting tranqs at first you can pretty easily escape or climb up a mountain. So be careful when searching because if there about to get tranqed they will go into a rage mode and attack everyone/everything and run extremely fast. If you tame them and they take a few or even 1 hit they will kill you and your tribe. While it’s tamed! Those are my tips to dealing with gigas. So it’s not a recommended fighting tame. -dragon
I would recommend a trap with 3 metal Dino gates as you can make a triangle to trap it instead of a box
Bring extra of everything! Extra bows, tranq arrows, narcos, gear, food, and be prepared for a long fight.
One bite and your dead so trap it in a trap. U can make one with behemoth dino_gates or a ramp that leads into a roofless building
Can one tap blood wyvern. If your trying to knock out bring A LOT of tranq arrows or darts. There fast af and there stronger than holy heck.
This is good for getting meat
And pvp
If you can’t find any gigas then look at the mountain in the north east where the griffins are I found 2 there. I play on mobile though so I don’t know if gigas spawn there on pc or console.
