Taming & KO Tips

How do I tame a giganotosaurus? Tips and strategies on taming and knocking out a giganotosaurus.
You need to tame giga 4 metal gates,1or2 large bear traps longneck rifle better to not use primitive use ramshackle to ascendant longneck use tranq darts better use shocking tranq darts bring 400 to1000 bio toxin depending on your decision use more bio toxin if higher level use for mobile players quetzal kibble with x15 balm the fastest or x10 balm for normal taming boost or minor soothing balm for small boost for pc players use extraordinary kibble or mutton or prime meat wait and keep an eye on unconsciousness bar and here you go you tamed your own giga
Why are the tranq amounts so broken for the giga it’s telling me it’s going to take 1,300 something shocking tranqs to take down a lvl 7 which is just not true

Giga Lvl 60
So I killed a giga. How? First I lead it into the water. Next, I grabbed my tusto and drowned it. Really helps 👍
Ok so, since they only deal damage up to stone, you should grab metal gateways and a few bear LARGE bear traps. You want to use it like a bird trap: set the gateway in a row and BRING 2 METAL gate doors. Put a bear trap in the middle and open both doors at both ends lure the giga in the trap, you might want to put some points in speed and lure it in the trap. Wait till it’s in the bear trap then close both doors. Pelt it with tranq ammo and then feed it highest level of kibble or raw prime meat. Maintain it torpor with narcotics or bio toxin so it doesn’t wake up until it is tamed. Hoped this was helpful.
If you are looking to tame a giga always look for the highest lvl to tame. As long as you know how to trap it then you can tame it, just make sure to have the reasources.
Just climb on an edge and shoot it! Follow it with something that can fly and continue..
If you play with a tribe mate you can get your tribe mate to pick you up on a flyer like a argent or quetzal and knock it out While you in the air.
I got my stuff and 9000 tranqs and I wasted almost all of the them and I checked him and he. Was at 0 still.....
WHAT THE FU-
Put over 500 tranqs into a 150 and still didn't go down be prepared to waste alot of time
DONT WASTE TRANQS IT WONT WORK U NEED TOXANT ARROWS. TOOK ME TWO HOURS TO NOTICE I WASTED 4,946 tranqs for nothing
Can be knocked out by melee. Just knocked one out that was trapped in ice with a regular 100% club. Two of us.
Use ascendant tranq longneck rifles with shocking tranq darts and use ascendant tek armour bring at least 200 shocking tranq darts not arrows
If your on a fiber/boosted server, just build a 2x2 metal behemoth gate filled with large bear traps. Then build a tower outside to shoot it with tranqs. Lead it in, it'll get stuck in the traps. After that, close the doors and go up your tower and tranqs it. They can't break metal so it's gonna be stuck.
When making tranqs for knocking out the giga make like an extra 200 or so in case your aim isn’t exceptional or you’re not using any traps
When i wanted to tame one i guide it off of a cliff and it kept running away and looseing all of its torpor so i advise to use a trap or bear trap (large)
One suggestion if you do the bed trick BEFORE it’s knocked out it’s gonna cause huge food loss. Much more than starve or even doing the bed trick after knocking it out.
Found a 420 giga on mobile, the problem is taming it since it has 216000 torpor
If you are planning to tame one, I really suggest to trap the giga!
This is an necessity because it moves a lot and you might miss, And apparently like some people say; Giga regents torpor faster than you can deal.
I would also suggest to bring an compound bow and toxicant arrow instead.
Bonus tip; If you are in mobile don’t shoot it in the midst of the grand hills, It’s gonna run and technically might run so far that you can’t render it and you need to follow it to hit it.
Therefore you should use higher graphics but this could be optional if you used traps.
If you don’t have enough resources for gates, don’t use stone walls!
Instead bring them to the Stoney place and camp the highest stone, Don’t trust hills, they can either not reach you but still bite you.
Check up on YouTube, metal pillar giga trap best thing ever, got a level 13 giga with no hassle thanks to the trap, make sure it's the updated version of the trap and they can't get out of it......................thank me later
