Taming & KO Tips
How do I tame a giganotosaurus? Tips and strategies on taming and knocking out a giganotosaurus.
I see way to meany people use narcotics to keep things asleep,USE FLIPPING BIOTOXIN! It gives 80 torpor and doesn’t do damage, narcotics do 40
Hatching a giga egg in an incubator with full boost is simple. Use 44 heat. IT WILL WORK.
With the proper technique, it's a long, but easy tame ;
1rst step : tame a scorpion, or arthropleura from within the caves (really important)
Imprint the MD as much as possible, until you'd find the gigano
Use the not-an-insect-even-though-every-one-say-they're-bugs, to attack the big one (he won't agro on you, unless you dismount)
Between each attacks, wait few seconds, until he'd recove 1hp
After a long while, he's knocked out, just bring him food... & Narcotics 👍
When you've found a suitable level Giga, find a tall cliff/ledge to shoot from. If stuck on flat land, turn to a platformed Quetz or th backseat of a Tapejara to shoot off of. I recommend to have two or more tribe mates on this tame.
Bring friends to help with flying while you dangle from the argy
I already tamed an giga at lv 78 and the tip was just get lots of tranquilizing darts and when he runs get into an area where he will get stuck while running and that's it easy tame. Btw be on top of an area that's above the length of him.
The giga's torpor will be going down insanely fast, I tried to tame one with a crossbow with 100+ tranq arrows, when I come up to it with a magnifying glass the torpor was 0 .
I just tamed one and got freakin scared out of my face!!! The good news is she only killed me once . . . Note to self: GIGAS APPARENTLY HAVE A HITBOX THE SPAN OF 200000000 MILES.
they make big chompy chompy and eat everything
This is one of very few dinosaurs we like to call an inverted torpor dinosaur. By this we mean that it's torpor goes down faster than it goes up, you will wait longer for it to go up than down thats why you should let the torpor drop really low then pump it with a large quantity all in one go, this will give you the time to let it tick up allowing you to do other things while you wait.
Bring double the amount of arrows or darts Dododex tell you to bring
As babies they will eat a lot! So get a lot of meat .like plz
Naa me not tame giga. today me go tame giga with 150 tranq aroow- a normal person who's English is very dengerous.
Use atleast 4 metal dinosaur gateways (i would suggest 5-6 just in case) place 3 in a formation where the giga can walk in and you can place the last one behind it while it is stuck in a bear trap that u can place in the middle of it.
I have 8 of these beauties! 6 females and 2 males, about 4 of those I two man tamed with a buddy. The rest all 6 tribe members were there. If you don't feel like gathering the materials for a trap. (We've only trapped one of these out of the 8) Get a quetzal with a platform saddle and have one person fly and the other shooting with tranq arrows or tranq darts constantly because there torpor goes down quick. It's not super hard. We've even tamed one underwater LOL. Good luck! Be warned you can lose your quetzals or any other tamed animals if you aren't careful! We've lost about 5 quetzal's and a rex in the process of just one giga. When you knock it down stay on it. Shoot 100 narcotics in it once it hits the 50-75% mark on its torpor. People who don't watch it's torpor or keep pumping narcotics into it when it starts dropping are the ones that deal with the "the giga will wake up on full torpor" myth. It's unlikely it will if you know what you're doing. Take my advice! Happy taming!
Are you looking for a strong mount? Cool if you wanna tame a Giga just follow these simple steps and follow the requirements so you can have a Giga!
Lets start packing!
REQUIREMENTS FOR THE TAME AND FOR YOUR OWN SAFTEY
-Ascendant/Journeyman Long-neck Rifle (Has to have good Durability not damage bcuz it might kill the Giga.)
-x3-x6 Quetz Kibble (You can buy a cheif station on mobile and get quetz kibble or search the recipie in YT.)
-Shocking Tranq Darts/Normal Tranq Darts
-Giganotasaurus Saddle (The Saddle for the Giga is only unlocked when your Lvl 98.)
-Ascendant Flak armor would be appreacieated since Gigas have a Gnash Effect-(Bleed Effect.)
-Good Stat Mount (Keep them safe from any saboor or direwolf or any dangourous carnivores and make sure that the stats are good with good HP, Stam, and speed.)
-Trap (If you want it the hard way then just tame it with out a trap or place three behomoth gate ways and trap the Giga or do the normal trap. ⚠️NOTE⚠️: This is very risky with out a trap or taming it with tatch tier wood tier and stone tier it will break all of those but not metal so trust me use metal!)
-3-4 Stacks of Bio or 5-7 Stacks of Narcotics.
Alrighty! Lets get started on taming this Land Mosa!
-Step 1: Find a Giganotasaurus (Gigas can be found on Mountains and the Snowy Mountains too.)
-Step 2: Build your trap and lure the Giga in! (Make sure its Metal Tier and has a Large bear Trap.)
-Step 3: Put your mount somewhere safe and put it on neutral and Tranq your Giga! (Gigas have 80k-100k Torpor so be prepared.)
-Step 4: Once your Giga is KO"d feed it Meat or Quetzal Kibble and put your Bio-Toxin Or Narcotics.
-Step 5: Just keep clearing the area while taming the Giga.
Yeay!!!! You have tamed the 3rd Apex Predator of the Island! 🦖🦖🏇🥳🥳
Now lets showcase the Gigas Abilities and Disablities!
ABILITY 1- Giganotosauruses have a Gnash Effect A.K.A Bleed effect which drops enemies creatures HP up to 30%! So when a Giga does that and when you still avoided it youll still be lossing HP.
ABILITY 2- These creatures are not very behaved they are likely to kill everything even theyre rider when they fall into a very deep slope this ability is called Rage Mode.
Now for the Dissablities!
DISSABILITES
DISSABLITY 1- The Giga Saddle can be only unlovked on lvl 98 so if you tamed a giga while still lvl 87 or 71 ya"ll still need the Saddle to ride it but luckily when your at Mobile and you have lots of amber saved you can buy an Tannery and just get enough thingys in the Tannery to buy a Journeyman Giga Saddle!
Thanks for reading my Guide hope ya"ll have a great day! 😁😄😃 and take care! :')

To the guy who lost his job and his girlfriend I feel you but my giga has 1,100 melee it 2 shots some brontosaurus
Just dont try it unless prepared
You know I was soooo prepared that health gets nerffed from 80 000 to 17 000. I'm cool with that, but NO ONE has EVER SAID that BASE DAMAGE GOES DOWN FROM 100 TO JUST 20???? My G O D. My hard work is just... useless. (ARK mobile)
To tame these, put 3 metal dinosaur gateway and keep in mind to put a large bear trap in the middle as well. Now, lure the giga in and put another dinosaur gateway behind the giga so it is trapped in place. Use a longneck rifle with tranquilizer darts to make it knocked out. Not that this will take a while. After knocked out, feed it lots of narcotics and raw prime meat. Enjoy your giganotosaurus! Pls click the green button if you like it. Thanks
