How to get a giga in 8 steps
1. Get about 1k narcotics traps(for any levels giga)
2. Spot the big rex
3. Place a lot of narcotics traps in a row
4. Take an arentavis or a wyvern and agro him
5. Lead the giga in the traps
6. Put food in his inv.
7. Force him to eat narcotics when the torpor is low
8. Name your new giga
This thing takes actually days to tame
If you have giga problems use a griffin they are the only flier that can allow you to equip weapons while riding so all you need to do is hover over it and tranq it from above I got a lvl 15 female with this tactic
Okay, I totally failed this giga tame. What did I do wrong?
Map: Extinction
Armor: Desert Cloth, backup fur armor just in case
Gear: ASCENDANT LONGNECK (there’s a spot near my base on CI where red drops spawn,) Shocking Tranq Darts (over 100,) Exceptional Kibble to tame.
Creature: Rock Drake, level 150, almost 14k health and around 1800 stam (I’m on singleplayer btw)
Target: Giga, lvl 16
It gets stuck on a cliff where nothing spawns and I start pounding in the darts. It starts to run? 🤔 Off the cliff and starts attacking everything. I get closer, and in less than a minute destroys 3/4 of my Drake’s health. I check it’s torpor (I’ve probably piled in over 30 darts) and it says: 2k out of 19k. I leave.
What should I do next time. Should I trap it (I know the trap,) or tame it on another map where it’s safer?

To the person who challenged me to tame a Giganotsaurus with fully imprinted parents. I imprinted it. I did it. Fully imprinted level 160 Giganotsaurus named Cali.
First you need 6 metal foundations, double door frames, triangle Sloped ceilings and two thatch foundations
Place one triangle foundation and continue with one side two thatch foundations and place the next triangle foundation and pick up the thatch foundations repeat this until you reach where you started the first triangle foundation after that place the six double doorframes (outer part) then place the triangle sloped ceilings facing towards the middle
Easy, and its antidirectional! Once the giga hops in it cannot get out!
Tame a low level female and a high level male if you have a cloning chamber because you can clone females for breeding cheap my level 360 male breeds with level 30 female clones
Easy to tame
If it’s lvl1 lol
To find this creature you can either go to griffin mountain or go to the snow biome
And the fastest way to tame it is by getting 10x soothing balm or 15x soothing balm and like 7 pieces of prime meat or kibble and a bunch of biotoxins
Get four gateways and a large bear trap make a u shape with the metal gateways and place down one or two bear traps in the gates make shure a raptor or horse can get through Argo the Giga and lure into the bear trap with yourself Or a speedy mount put the 4th gateway behind him and shoot him use a good crossbow tranqs are a waste of resources and get lots of narcos you’ll need them.
Honestly catching and taming a giga is not as hard as everyone makes it out to be, if you have a trap its pretty easy, I tamed two gigas yesterday, the only hard thing for taming one is getting the materials/darts/narcs otherwise its easy peasy, I have more trouble trying to trap argies
According to this app, it would take 2079 tranq darts shot by a primitive longneck rifle every 5 seconds to knock out a level 750. To put it simply, do not try to knock out a level 750 Gigantosaurus.
There a extremely good traps from Rex giga etc from a YouTuber called fatdog search him up I can tame a Rex with only 14 pillars now
I really want to tell you when you get another story so I wanted to ask art if they can send me one giganotosaurus
Ok so for y’all to know if u fall on a cliff or something THEY WILL GO AGGRO AND KILL EVERYTHING AROUND IT and u can’t ride it. I didn’t get killed idk why I was in a PVX server so. Alright bai guys
Hacth
Bus i dont know?
GUYS, theres a food that is OP, its so op that it can tame a giga, at any lvl, instantly, its hard to get, but worth it, its called…
Forcetame
So I made a scaled up dire bear trat that was 4 by 4 and 4 high with metal doorframes and 400 darts later bam you got a giga
Metal Dino gates and a large bear trap. Just don’t put too much space between them or CHOMP! Use a hunting rifle with tranqs and make sure to bring a backup in case it breaks. Torpidity is stupid fast on these things so have some kibble on hand to make it quick once it’s out.
It is not that worth it to tame will edtion will kill everybody and everything but when you tame it it is not that good also do not take it to a war if he gets decently damaged he’s eyes will start burning AND KILL EVERYTHING INCLUDING YOU
