If you want to tame without the dino gate trap method (specifically on the map The Island as that's where I tried it), make sure you know where all the waterfalls are. Then find a Giga and let it follow you to the waterfall. Make it fall down the water fall. You should be at the top of the waterfall and shoot narc arrows/whatever better option you have. Best to ride a flying creature with high stamina and health incase you get hit by it while you make the Giga follow you (it'll only follow when you land). Best waterfall to do this is the one next to the 2 snowy mountains, along that river up north/northwest ish, as it has both tall sides for it to get stuck in.

If you saw my previous tip on taming and knock out about how I just knocked out a giga, a few minutes after I knocked it out I went to harvest more raw meat for him to eat, when I came back I saw a pack of raptors killing my giga. I shot them all but when I finally got to the giga it was dead.

I’m a counsel player and me and two other of my friends are playing an unofficial sever where the rates are crazy and we are going to Ragnorok with a griffin I’ll be the one riding it and they are going to grapple onto the griffin and they will then shoot it with shocking tranq darts then we are going to cryo it and then we find another one and do the same thing until we have a really good breeding couple then we will level the baby up to max and hopefully rule the server

Me: Bored (cause I play mobile and leveling up is sooo hard)

Brain: how about taming a giga

Goes to my narco box (I have like 50 stacks of narcos in there) I grabbed a few stacks and some narco darts and left to find one when I found one I trapped it I recommend using a large bear trap and metal gates since I play on mobile I used a 10 times tame helper ( it took about forty minutes) then I realized that I had no way to get it back home there was no such thing as a cryopod so I started walking I wasn’t a high enough level to ride it to it took a long time when I finally got back t looked at it’s stats and it had 21% attack now it was a low level but really and I pump attack in to it and it doesn’t even go up I need to know if this is normal but if your gonna tame one go for a high level don’t do what I did

Make a trap using 14 metal pillars. Place one down, then one on either side in the snap points. Place another along the middle, then a third along the middle then a fourth the same way. Remove the middle original pillar and the first one you placed opposite the original three. Place 4 additional pillars atop the two that were opposite the original middle, then 2 additional pillars on the one two snap points away from those. It should look like:

Pillar one 5 tall (empty snap point) pillar two 5 tall.

(Empty snap point)

Pillars three 3 tall

Pillars four 1 tall.

You lead the giga towards the trap on the one pillars side, it will hop over that, over the 3 pillars tall snap and get stuck between that and the two 5 pillar tall pillars. It won't even be able to turn.
