If you are breeding for mutations tame a low level female, as low as possible as you can clone them and mass produce eggs for mutations

Hi there! Just a quick reminder for those who would like to tame a giga :)

These things have a torpor that decreases by 100 each second, so I suggest you to bring a whole stack of biotoxins since their torpor drops extremely fast!

Sorry if I made mistakes, English is not my…

I was able to tame one at lvl 71 and lead him back to my base with no deaths. No saddle (yet) but I'm just here to prove us lvl 75 and lower players can do it, although my friend helped me since the games were having a seizure. -glitchboo

Basically what you need to tame on is first see one then run in terror , then prepare, Kibbles is must ,next thing they like are you narcotics so stock up , make some metal gateway, then ammo of your choice, keep it like there is no tomorrow.

Now make the trap a rectangular…

If you have 2 high level gigas that are a breeding pair, breed them, they said. It'd be worth the hassle they said.

To tame them: Build a Trap of either metal or tek, knock em out feed him bio toxin so torpor goes up, Feed it prime, mutton, or kibble...you have your brand new dino that goes nuts if he gets burned....

Please don’t try taming this without a trap. It’s not a good idea.

Long story short, over 150 tranq arrows wasted and a journeyman crossbow broken on a level 5.

Trap them in a metal box or something to easily tame them

Giga can't damage metal tier or higher

The tame isn’t really hard, the hard part is to find one! Once that I found one near to the mountains my brother helped me by flying a Tapejara while I was shooting tranq arrows with a crossbow, it got stuck with some rocks and eventually I put it to sleep, now this demos is…

Few hundred arrows and a butt ton of bio toxin and a 7 gate trap method

Make sure to space them

You can use the same thing you would to trap a Rex- just replace the stone Dino gates with metal ones
