Taming & KO Tips

How do I tame a giganotosaurus? Tips and strategies on taming and knocking out a giganotosaurus.
I dare you to raise one!! They are savage if you got two high lvl parents (about lvl 140ish) and you get imprinting on it. The thing will become an adult with about 230% melee and basically one chomp any bronto!!! But on the down side you loose your job and your girlfriend
The things you need to tame a giga:-
1)Flyer (recommending an argy).
2)4-5 dinosaur metal gateways.
3)1-2 large bear traps.
4)10x soothing balm if your playing on mobile.
5)Your KO weapon (most recommended are ascendant longneck rifle or ascendant crossbow).
6)Your KO ammo (bring a decent amount).
7)Taming food of your choice (most recommended is raw prime meat or kibble if you can).
8)Decent amount of narcotics or bio toxin.
FIND GIGA: gigas usually spawn at mountains. On the island try looking around the volcano or the two mountains in the snow area.
SET YOUR TRAP: take 3 of your metal gateways and make this shape \_/ then put a large bear trap or 2 in the middle. It’s easier if you build the trap on flat ground.
TRAP THE GIGA: get the giga to follow you and make it go inside the trap, then make sure it’s caught in the bear trap. When it’s stuck in the bear trap go behind it and complete the trap with another gateway. The final shape of the trap looks like a Trapezoidal.
KO THE GIGA: even a low level giga has a lot of torpor and it drops fast so keep shooting no matter what. It’s recommended for a tribe-mate to help you.
START FEEDING: put the food in the giga’s inventory and keep an eye on it’s torpor.
I hope this was helpful 😊
I 100% recommend charging straight on a Giga with a wooden club, you won’t regret it.
The real gods at ark use their fists.
WILD = 80,000 hp
TAMED = 18,000 hp
I'll say no more.....
I was looking to metal to make a saddle then I said to my brother “i am going to tame a giga” as a joke. Not even 10 seconds later a level 55 giga came into view. KEEP IN MIND WE ARE ONLY LEVEL 40!! We are gonna tame it tomorrow with arrows since we don’t have tranq darts😂 wish us luck!
Ok. WHO IN THEIR RIGHT MIND WOULD ATTACK THIS THING WITH A PACHY 2000 TIMES? Also- would it even survive (the pachy, not the giga)?

Make 4 metal dino gates and 1 large bear trap. Place three frames and door into an incomplete square and the large bear trap in the I between them. Lure the Giga into the trap and while its trapped place 4th down to make the square. Then just light it up with tranqs
Many a tribe have been foolish enough to think they could fight a wild giga with a tamed and ended up with a dead giga. Don't be them.
Just lure into a metal gate set ups some plant Xs and it will knock out you welcome
Omg I just shot like 500 narco arrows into a 130 giga and I began to worried as I start running out. I’m on my last arrow and shoot, praying it knocks out, and it just looks at me, so since it’s in flee mode, I run up punch it, and it knocks out. Craziest thing ever
The 100% chance of death with the Pachy's charge isn't talking about the Giga dying… it's about the Pachy.
TO THE GUY THAT SAID METAL SIGNPOSTS WORK, IT JUST WALKS RIGHT OVER THEM.
f for my argy
They are in Fjordur, at least both in Normal and R versions. For trap captain fatdog's is nice.
If you're on ragnarok and you find the giga that spawns in the highland, all you need is 6-8 metal dinosaur gates. Just lure him or her into the trench that runs across the center of the highlands north and south. You can create enough space while trapping by just blocking off the river and using the cliff walls to your advantage. Then you can sit above him on the cliff wall and torper him.
If you run into a giga in the wild simply bola your tribe mate and run away
I tamed this guy with low level pulmonos where’s my trophy?
Becareful at this titan, even if it's tamed or not if it takes fall damage or low health, it will trigger it's rage and will attack everything in it's path
I knocked one out with a HUGE amount of froggo’s I started with 35 frogs all level 100-150 and by the time he fell I had 4 frogs one ^ is a frog memory!
If 0.001% of you thinks “maybe this cliff isn’t tall enough”, you’re right. Leave immediately. When it comes to Gigas, “life uh finds a way”. Luckily my Argy is built different and I was able to save him and my stuff before the Giga ate him.
