Taming & KO Tips

How do I tame a giganotosaurus? Tips and strategies on taming and knocking out a giganotosaurus.
I really want because he is so big but I can’t kill one or find one
People say they are savages I ate a rare flower and went right next to it it didn't aggro on me
Bring narcotics I had to knock it out again because I didn't bring narcs
Tamed one with just raw meat and only 2 pieces of prime took me so long bruh my iPad was 100% and then it was 28% like what the hell bro also I found another giga next to it that desapwned 5 seconds late I saw 2 female giga chilling at the obelisk sadly the giga I tamed was female too.
I recommend to bring an argentavis or wyvern to knock out this guy. Make sure to bring alot of tranq darts and things to repair your riffle. For the food use mutton or prime meat. Hope this helped🙂
Build a trap using 1 behemoth metal gateway (and gate) and 5 smaller metal gateways arranged in a semi-circle pattern with the smaller gates curving around the behemoth gate. Place a large bear trap towards the opposite edge of the behemoth gate.
Lure the giga into the trap. This is way easier said than done however… The Giga is very unpredictable in its attention span frequently switching targets to another wild dino, it also has unpredictable pathing and sometimes struggles trying to walk around large rocks. Furthermore… The Giga is incredibly fast despite what appearances might lead you to believe, it can easily chase down an Argent and most other dinos not leveled into movement speed.
I advise luring either with a movement speed focused character (use mindwipe tonic and pump into around 300% movement speed), a Galimimus (DON’T GET HIT!) or an Argentavis with at the bear minimum 1,500 HP (The Giga deals 500 damage base with its bite and can attack twice in a short span of time, if you get hit begin flying up and out of reach). Lure the giga into the bear trap and run behind to seal the gate while the Giga is stuck.
Bring plenty of shocking darts and either multiple primitve or a single high quality longneck rifle. The Giga has extraordinarily high topor so it will take a long time even with sustained fire to knock if out.
It isn’t over yet… The Giga is a problem even when KOed. It drains topor really fast and you need to come prepared with stacks of biotoxin or narcotics and carefully watch its topor. I advise starve taming for maximum taming effectiveness and using Exceptional kibble to cut down the time it takes to tame.
Hi I have a 2 percent chance of having triplets
If you are on mobile here is a tip for you
Craft 4 big billboard and then craft a 7 giant bear trap place it on flat surface and also kill all the carnivores around you so i it won't disturb during your taming procession, put 3 big billboards around, and left some one big Billboard on your hotbar then put the 7 giant bear trap, if you have trapped the giga on the 3 billboards with 7 bear trap go patch the last billboard. Warning! If the torpor of the giga are almost full he can flea away but it won't hurt you instead he is the one who would be scared. Fact☝🏻.big billboards won't get damaged for some reason and it's important for trapping any dinos. Sorry for my grammar just trying too help😁
Materials -
4-8 metal billboards
2-4 bear traps
Design - you want to put the bill boards in a square so one infront of the giga, to its right, left, and behind. Place 3 bill boards like this |_| and 2 bear traps in the trap, then lead the giga to the trap and put one billboard behind it. Then just knock it out and tame it.
I recommend using the hunt giga pursuit to find one and tame it, without using the pursuit I had looked around for about a week and wasn’t able to find one. So if you don't want to spend forever trying to find one, use the pursuit
Place 3 metal dinosaur gateways in a “U” formation, then put a large bear trap in the middle. Next, simply get it to aggro on you and follow you into the trap, once it’s snagged on the bear trap, move behind it and seal off the entrance with a fourth gateway!
Thanks for reading and I hope you can find a high level one to tame!
When I taming in mobile I BEG U I ABSOLUTELY BEG U USE TOXICANT ARROW AND COMPOUND BOW MORE RATE OF FIRE AND BETTER TORPOR THAN TRANQUILLISER DART
I was flying around the highlands on rag and ran into 2 gigas mate boosted gonna try and tame them
I tried to KO it with an army of super mutated pachys. Like I mean 4K hp each. 100 of em. The giga wasn’t even hurt
Haaaaaatttttte them low stam drown really easy not worth the time join my tribe on mobile the name dodo
I had just tamed this thing and I wet my pants.I cried.I actually did.But then. . .waaaaaaaahaaha😫😫😫😫😫😫😫 IT FELL OF A CLIFF.And.sniff, I’m sorry this makes me so emotional.I died too!I lost full tek armour and the creature implant.Like this for boo boo, my late gigantosaur.He would want it. . . 😔 😔 😔 RIP 🪦 friend.See you in heaven. 😞
I think that if you get a baby and fully imprint on it, it should remove the rage effect or at least not throw you off and turn hostile towards you. RUGER5264 - 2021
giga: *is stuck*
me: *grabs lubricant (soothing balm)* *grabs tranq darts* *grabs bear trap* *grabs bait (quetzal kibble)*
If taming on rag I recommend they canyon on highlands put down 4metal dinosaur gate ways on each side kite it in then fly and shoot of the back of a griffin bring about 500-1000 narcotics starve once food reached half spam 100-200 in and go kill ovis and let the giga eat the you got a killing machine
If u want to tame gigas, then make a metal behemoth gateway trap. SERIOUSLY! if u don’t, you’ll waste all of your darts chasing it around. It will be a waste of time and resources. What seems like the only way to tame them is to make the trap and knock em out in there. I just barely tamed two gigas using this method. It works really well!!
