Taming & KO Tips

How do I tame a giganotosaurus? Tips and strategies on taming and knocking out a giganotosaurus.
This becomes super easy to tame when trapped in an Omni directional trap just don’t get too close also if you need to you can simply look up how to make an effective trap on YouTube.
Prepare for a fight if planning to tame with no kibble I suggest bring a tamed Ovis or two in a cryopod from there place 3 metal Dino gates in the form of a u and place a large bear trap in the middle once Giga is trapped in the bear trap go around and quickly place a fourth metal Dino gate form there shoot it with your preferred tranq method enjoy
Use a Rock Drake and hang on a wall to knock it out.
All you need to do is is make a half a hexagon with metal dinosaur gateways with a bear trap in the middle of it and then once it gets trapped put 2 gateways behind it. Once you’ve done that just stay a safe enough distance away and shoot it until it’s knocked out. Make sure you have a sleeping bag close but not to close to it in case you die. Make sure you have plenty of narcotics/bio toxin and keep it knocked out. The more people you have to knock it out the better. It’s best to use shocking tranquilizers darts but if you aren’t a high enough level you can use normal tranq darts. If your doing a solo tame make sure you have multiple rifles because they will break and your constantly shooting it. It’s torpor drains drastically and if you wait a few second before shooting all of its torpor will be gone
Try to form a sixty degree angle with two metal Dino gateways and a bear trap in the middle. Attack the giga once with an argie with high health and lure it over the trap. Then quickly get off and close the gap. And boom you’ve trapped a giga.
For any mobile players planning on taming one, use a x10 or x15 taming balm. You’ll thank me later.
Had a level 2 one knocked out. It took, with a x10 balm, 2 cooked prime meat to tame.
In ragnarok in the highlands there are fingers sticking out of the ground in the middle there is a trench use a flyer to lure the giga into the trench then one person goes in one side the other group goes on the opposite side, don’t fall in and shoot away until it gets knocked.
If it comes out one of the ends fly on top of one of the fingers then lure it back into the trench but only move if it is actually out of the trench. There are Ovis near the trench use mutton
Always lure it to the base of that one douchebag who spams the chat, the whole server will love you and the Giga gets a full belly.
A quetz will make things easy for you. You can just stand on the platform with your tribe to make it better and shoot it with darts.
In ps4,the tranq darts stats are totally wrong,anyone knows about this ?
What u need to tame giga:
1. Griffin or royal griffin on mobile
2. Long neck rifle(shocking darts) and cross bow (toxiana just in case ur rifle broke)
3. Meat or prime meat,
What u need to do:
1. Fly to giga
2. Shoot shocking darts at giga on griffin cuz u can
3. Repeat till knocked out or if ur long neck broke
4. If long neck broke, use cross bow with toxiana ammo
5. Once knocked out, feed it prime or raw, prime does about 15%, while raw does about 5%
6. Tame
Bring a trap. I tried taming it without one and died 10 times.
I would suggest a griffin, or teksuit so you can fly in the air, and still shoot without being bitten.
So im playing on singerplayer mode and im lvl 70 well im pretty new means this double xp thing got me here anyways from the first day i heard about giga when i was checking Dododex I thought it would be a pretty cool dino to have well today i finally found one near the snow mountain so i used the 4 gates and a bear trap strategy and knocked it out , it was lvl 20 and had like 80k hp i was so excited but after taming it its hp went down to 17 k n 30% attack and the lvl was 29 i thought it was somekind of bug so i came to Dododex and found out about this huge rip-off ..... btw on my way back to base it took 4 hits of my giga to killvl 28 scorp lol

Grab a friend and an argintavis that has about 10,000 health. get on the argi and pick up your friend make them go In 3rd person. shoot the crap out of it with tranq darts loaded into a long neck rifle
If you use the four gate method then you can trap the giga by freezing it with a snow owl if you think you can do it. I have tamed several gigas using this method.
If you ever encounter one, just remember to....
RUNNNNN
