Taming & KO Tips

How do I tame a giganotosaurus? Tips and strategies on taming and knocking out a giganotosaurus.
Gigas are easy to tame when you have a dinosaur gate way and large dinosaur Bear trap but mobile use boi toxin when his almost awake use prime meat to get 20.5 taming on my mobile
I got every thing to tame a giga but I found no giga and I'm scared to do it
Prepare before hand always have way more Tranqs than needed and have help and build metal trap
Dododex said I need 3 exceptional kibble to tame one but the kibble only increased it 1.5%. Don’t waste your time on kibble, find a sheep nearby and use mutton.
If you don’t want to trap one, simply grapple onto its tail or back it can’t attack you then.
I Lured Him To A Cave Placed Down 4 Metal Dinosaur Gates And Boom Now I Have A Giga It Wasn't An Artifact Cave By The Way
I suggest taking a Tapejara or griffin to shoot off of
I tamed mine by completing hunt dilo mission (which gives you soothing balm). Then I Went to the two snowy mountains in the north. then I shot it with a crossbow With toxicant bow arrows. it only took three meats to tame with the balm and 200 Bio Toxin ( feed every once and a while th Toxin) for you beginners out there or teams. And I highly recommend a tamed Diplo or brontosaurus to follow it when it’s tamed(reinforcements, clearly)

up so more people can know
If you play on mobile on a easy server you just need 1 of the kibble they eat and a x10 balm that should tame it
You can use a quetzal platform to fly above it and shoot it from above preferably with a longneck and tranq darts. Keep in mind you have to be a good shot for this to work
Some of you don't see it yet.. But tranq harpoon gun 300 TORPOR shock tranq also work
Make sure to trap it. It will get bored easily and go eat another Dino.
So, I just solo tamed a giga on mobile while I was level 75. Pretty easy, it just required lots of resources. I lost a tapajara and an otter in the process.
I was able to tame one using an ascended longneck, shocking tranq darts, and about 50 large bear traps laid out in a cluster in a flat, open place. The giga chased be into one trap, stood still for a couple seconds, broke out, and immediately went into another one over and over again. I resorted to this after learning how cheap large bear traps were and how ineffective using a grappling hook and argie was for me.
If you see a giga Place 3 metal gates with a large bear trap in the middle and then lead the giga in and when it gets trapped place the 4th gate way so it can’t get out then start knocking it out!!!.
When I finally knocked one out, it’s torpor started dropping down hella fast so I had to keep feeding it a lot narcotics and bio toxins and I ran out. So I started running as fast as I can. Always bring a lot of bio toxins, narcotics and other that can keep it knocked out.
The only real way to tame a giga is using a trap because missing one shot or letting run for even a bit too long can make you have to waste 10 more shots
Don’t be cheap with the narcotics. Use the best you’ve got, use a LOT and don’t look away. I looked away for ten seconds and he woke up. Had to use another 200 arrows to put him down again.
