How do I tame a giganotosaurus? Tips and strategies on taming and knocking out a giganotosaurus.
If you trap the giga use tranq bolts
Without imprint 15k health
With imprint 30k health
Tame a gally place 3 Dino gateways not behemoth gateways place 1 or 2 large bear traps inside use gally to lure giga inside and the bear trap will go off then place the last gateway to trap him, after that it's pretty simple just tranq him. P.S level gally in speed a little stamina and a good amount of health.
Just don't tame that thing because :
1. Wild giga hp: 80 000
Tamed giga hp: 17 800
2. Wild giga damage : over 700 to an anky.
Tamed giga damage : 200-300.
3.Tamed giga level up points : +20 hp
+1% damage
+ 40 energy
+ 30 kg
+ 1% mouvements
Speed
+25 oxigen
4. If your giga die you will be sad and you will rage quit.
5.if you force him when he doesn't have energy he will rage and he will dismount you and bite you.
But is good to scare visitors.
For u that say a real man tames it with your fists u can not It will die and u
To tame I use a flyer and lots of narcs and tranqs giga don’t do torpor run and all u have to do is be on a cliff or rock way higher than he is then shoot
I Just tamed one , It took me só much time but i finally got It and it's a female :)
You can’t request them on mobile. I learned the hard way.
Two hits with tranq arrow and feed it berries. Never hasn’t worked. Happy Taming!
1)craft 4 metal behemoths and doors for it
2)lure the giga
3)use tranquilizer shocking dart to knock it
4)game giga with prime meat (raw) or mutton (raw)
5)keep the torpidity above 70%
6) u have giga
You don't need gateways if you don't want to waste lvl, you can use 8 metal fence or 4 metal foundations and 24 metal walls, leave spaces of about 2 steps between each other, also place a few traps in different places nearby your escape position. And when you shooting hower above the ground, raptors may want to help for giga :)
Use smooth balm, it's not hard to get it from the lava cave
Best way to tame a giga (maybe) Make a trap looking like this with 4-5 metal METAL gateways. Put a bear trap in the middle, and bring a quetz with 10k+ health. Lead the giga to trap, while you probably will be bitten by giga. Wait until it gets stuck in bear trap, and if I didn’t mention BRING AN EQUUS TO RUN AROUND IT. But get on ur equus, and make sure it can’t hit you, but put a gate or 2 behind it. Then knock it out with mastercraft or ascendant crossbow or longneck, or compound bow with toxicant arrows. Then, bring 10x balm and quetz kibble 1-30 and simply tame. I hope you tame that giga you wanted! And I hope this would be helpful.
One way to avoid its torpor dropping down, wait for it to go about halfway down, then spam feed the thing about 400 narcotics and the torpor dropping will stop while the narcotics are raising it back up.
If you find a low level giga and if you have a friend or two you can build a 4x4 stone box that is 3 walls high (use door frames for shooting it) and a ramp up one side (credits to Tecorsuh on YouTube for the trap idea) you and your friend(s) can use crossbows with tranquilizer arrows to knock it out. I’d recommend each person taking one primitive crossbow with 100 tranquilizer arrows. After the giga is knocked out (do make sure you have plenty of narcotics as the giga’s torpor drops at an alarming rate) just give it raw prime meat or regular raw meat. If you followed this little guide here, enjoy your friend the giga!
Best way to tame is get a wyv make it follow you bring tranqs get off wyv while above giga and just shoot with tranqs
Put level at 9999 and taming speed at .01 and it will take 4.3 years to tame this sucka
Use a griffin and shoot off it’s back best works with tribe mate and two griffins , be aware you will need a lot of stam on Griffin
I have almost died on my army doing this so I just got to say that be careful when you take this thing
Btw my army was a lvl 300+....
I will try to tame one with tapejara and ascendant rifle (tranque darts), ascendant gives 1000+ torpor per one shot = about 90 shots
Another way to do this:you are on a side of a mountain and you have large bear traps. Go to the bottom and place them all down scattered. Shot the giga and runs right at you and goes in the trap. Then you need boi toxic tranqs (about 200 just in case) and any type of long neck rifles
