Taming & KO Tips

How do I tame a giganotosaurus? Tips and strategies on taming and knocking out a giganotosaurus.
Highly recommend using shocking tranq darts if over lvl 200
For food and narcs: get ur ichthy and go to herbivore island or wherever you can find a scrape meat fish then scrape like a lot of meat off of it to refresh scraping instantly run until it's rendered out then come back and scrape again then when ue done kill alot of jellyfish. Then u can tame the giga with the prime fish meat and use the bio toxin for narcs also recommend shooting from a mountain cliffside. ps. they are normally found at blue obelisk fars peak (where u find the griffins) and sometimes North zone 2
The 100% chance of death of the pachy's charge isn't about the giga... it's about the pachy.
THIS GUY IS HARD TO TAME...but not impossible
you get the best knocking out stuff and the best kibble.
you make a trap, you want to because it is impossible to tame without one, take a LOT of narcos. his torpor is smol. he takes a long time to tame but he's worth it
I haven't tried this but if anyone sees this you should try it;but a platform saddle on a Quetzal and put a plant x on the Quetzal platform and hover over the Giga with the Quetzal
Also I don't know it this will work
What i did to tame is get a high level wyvern with lots ofbstam and health the make it follow you get on its back once you found giga and shoot with tranqs then once its in flee land the wyv and shoot it tranqs on foot
The best dino to tame this with is either a Galli with a bunch of health and stam or a flyer. Galli are extremely fast, they can outrun anything even Wyverns! Or raptors, flyers can each you higher then anything and you can dangle from them with a grappling hook and shoot at this giant beast. But be warned... torpor draining is on its side. Have fun taming this giant beast survivors!
Place 3 metal Dino gates down and have a friend nearby. Lure the giga with your high lv (high HP) maxed health Dino and be behind the trap, once he goes in, have your friend place the last gate down behind him. (HE MAY BE BITTEN)
Don’t attack a wild one with a tamed one. The wild giga has about 63,000 more health then a newly tamed giga.
Don’t use tranq arrows use tranq darts
Metal gate trap is good but I suggest you fly as well extra safety
Be sure to stay alert while taming this thing, apparently hyenadons are ballsy enough to attack this when it's knocked out
I had an awesome KO battle with one just now. I brought 7 scorpions, 14 frogs and 16 pachys, while riding on another pachy shooting toxic arrows. I lost all the tanes... but won the battle.
(THERE ARE BETTER WAYS TO TAME THIS, I JUST DID THIS FOR FUN)
Dude from 80k+ health and more than 357 damage on wild. When tamed its only 17k health with 135 damage per hit. What the... Wasting a real time, even though increasing the points level, its not increase too much (on any option). go get some rex is better option i guess. My rex reach 24k health faster than this giant, and do 557 damage easily with only few points spended. Since its hard to find a gigant lvl 100+, rex is better. Less tranq lower risk
You need a long neck (any kind) and boi toxic tranqs. Find one and nock it out
Get 100 tranq arrows with a crossbow make sure to bring rex to get lots of raw prime meat and 2 100 stacks of nartoitics
Brush these have wimp roars. I have 2 rexs and they roars so hard that there targets **** themselves twice then die
Put metal dinos gates in "U" position and few bear traps inside it.Lure giga and put one gate under his tail close to legs (two if u think it can escape) then just knock him out I used 6 gates
Ppl always say they are hard to raise but it’s really not even if it’s higher lvls I raised 3 of them (mega mouth) (galaxy fatty) and (cookie) and it was easy to raise all are above lvl 300 so... stop complaining
For the person trying to find one I went to far peaks and found one when I was going to find a mate for my female griffin(rip fazar)
