How do I tame a giganotosaurus? Tips and strategies on taming and knocking out a giganotosaurus.
Easiest way to tame on Ragnarok is just to lure them into the river canyon thing in the highlands and shoot them from the other side of the bridge viaduct thingy
Here’s what you need. Not too heavy resources needed.
5-6 metal gateways
200+ tranq arrows (Ascendant crossbow)
Babies in cryopod for prime meat
3-4 large bear traps
Lots of Biotoxin
Lure the giga to the trap with a flier and make sure it gets stuck. Then you wanna place the final gateways behind it to trap it. It might seem way too large for the regular Dinogates but it can’t get out. After you knock it out, you can uncryo the babies, unclaim them and have your flier kill it for prime. Should be smooth sailing from there!
I tried trapping mine with less than 5 gates and it decided to drown itself. I recommend kiting the giga away from the water since it’s too stupid to realize it’s gonna drown while it’s asleep. Lesson learnt. At the price of my sanity and time at 4 am. 💀
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 👍
If you want this weapon of mass destruction I’ll give tips:
You’ll need:
-A trap bc this thing is actually hard to hit without a trap.( I used 4 metal gates but any trap that’s big enough works)
-Your KO weapon(it doesn’t have to be a longneck, crossbow worked fine)
Now you know what you’ll need, let’s get to taming.
1. find a giga.
Gigas are basically ONLY found in mountains or snow and you’ll know it when you see one.(they are bronto-sized rexes)
2. Set up the trap.
A preferred place to set the trap is on any sort of flat ground, lead the giga in. If it doesn’t get stuck, the trap doesn’t work or you’re just skill issue.
3. KO the giga.
This should be easy but will take awhile. Don’t stop shooting because it’s torpor drops fast.
4. Feed it.
You can starve it or give it prime(don’t ask where raw meat went)it’s up to you, give it 100 biotoxin when it’s on low torpor and you’re set.
Now you have machine of death. It wasn’t that hard wasn’t it?

Once you think you’ve made enough tracks to tame one, trust me and make more bc these things tank
*pachy and giga knockout jokes*
cantex: and i took that personally
*makes video of lvl 1000 pachy vs giga*
Do not use Raw meat!!!!!!!!!! Use it's preferred kibble or raw prime meat, if you give it raw meat it melee damage will be terrible taming effect is very low..... so if you want a good Giga I suggest using prime meat raw mutton or exceptional kibble.
Update from last time:
Sadly black pearl died, I lost stam so I was resting on a hill when the giga (10 for sure) sprinted over and killed us.
Now, I have the trap and the arrow.
The giga’s gonna be mine soon.
Also, I have a question:
On the island where do high level pts spawn? Unrelated but very hard to find 130+ pts really
Do you want to tame this huge dinosaur? Well, I have just the taming guide for you! There are 2 sections: Mobile Taming and PC Taming. Since PC Taming is more popular, I’ll start with that first;
REQUIREMENTS:
Ascendant Crossbow/Rifle, Tranq Ammo, 1 or 2 LARGE Bear Traps, Bio Toxin (Quantity Depends On Level), and 4 Metal Gateways. You’ll also need lots of Kibble!
FIND YOUR GIGA:
Get on an Argy and find your Giga. Make sure the Giga is a decent level!
SET UP TRAP:
Place 3 Metal Gateways in a box formation like this; \_/. However, don’t place it tilting outwards, unlike that of what is shown in the picture. Just make it a perfect box with an opening. Make sure to leave gaps between the Gateways so the Giga fits through! Leave a bear trap or 2 in the middle to immobilize the Giga.
LURE THE GIGA:
Shoot the Giga and immediately get on your Argy. Try to lead the Giga into the trap. Once it is trapped, place the final Gateway in the opening so that the Giga does not escape.
KNOCKOUT:
Use the weapon of choice and prepare to knock out the Giga. You will need tons of Tranq Ammo for this, so make sure to bring a lot! Shoot every 3 seconds or so. IMPORTANT: Do not miss shots while knocking out the Giga!
TAMING THE GIGA:
Get your absurd amount of Kibbles and Toxins and start taming! Do not leave your tame unmonitored, as the Giga drains torpor way faster than the Therizino or Rex. Have a tribemate to help guard the Giga if you have one available.
I hope this version helped a lot of people! Now let’s see how to tame a Giga on Mobile. I promise this version is very straightforward;
DISCLAIMER: The way I tame Mobile Gigas is very specific, so if you want a more general way to tame one, seek a friend to help you.
REQUIREMENTS:
Soothing Balm, 1-2 Behemoth Dinosaur Gateway set, 75 Bio Toxin or larger, Ascendant Crossbow/Rifle, and Tranq Ammo. You’ll also need Quetzal Kibble (at least 2), so consider making lots of jerky before taming!
FIND YOUR GIGA:
Find a Giga near the snow mountains.
LURE THE GIGA:
Get on an Argy and carry prey. Wild Gigas will not agro on mounted creatures. They will also not accidentally attack your tame either, since they only attack the prey that your Argy is holding. But they will attack and kill your Argy if you do attack them or agro them! I have confirmed this, try it yourself! Lead it to a cliff or mountain, which will be used as the other walls of the trap! If you feel like the Giga will just climb the cliff or go onto the sides of the mountain, you’re probably right. Leave the prey onto a ledge so the Giga does not leave!
TRAP THE GIGA:
Place the Behemoth Gateway(s) and Gate(s) to trap the Giga. Do not unmount your Argy while doing this, or else it will agro on you! At this point, the prey may have fallen down or the Giga has left. Make sure to place them quick!
KNOCKOUT:
If you can’t shoot the Giga on the ledge you are on, build a platform with thatch. Make sure to knock out the Giga quick, or else it will break the Gate!
TAME THE GIGA:
Use the Soothing Balm and Quetzal Kibble. Use Bio Toxin as well. If you use a mountain and it is too slippery, place a structure! I almost lost my Giga to this.
I hope this final result helped! I am not the best at making guides, but I will try my best when it comes to helping the community. I hope you like it!
They have a blind spot. Just grapple to their thigh and shoot it full of tranq darts. WARNING YOU MAY BE HIT A FEW TIMES.
You can also kill Gigas like this.
do NOT underestimate the torpor drop of this guy.
The numbers are off, because the calculator doesn't account for its natural torpor drain, unless you can fire the listed amount of darts all at the same time, bring at minimum double the recommended amount.
it's easy for mobile(old) just place the metal gate (the smaller not behemoth gate) just place 4 if it's on flate areas but for safety bring 6 or 7 and also they didn't need 100 narcotic 50 is enough if you have soothing balm 15 and i recommend use argy because it can craft something on it and Gigas won't attack while you're land with argy besides it(unless you attack or unride you're argy by accidentally) just that tip's for me goodluck and it's for mobile only i didn't try at new mobile but hope it's still work
As babies they will eat a lot! So get a lot of meat .like plz
Best way to tame this guy is get a flying Dino to fly above it grapple onto your Dino and then switch to a different weapon and load him up with tranqs.
If on the island they are most common in the volcano this means you don’t need a trap because you can either fly up to the rim of the volcano and shoot tranqs from there which is the easier option or block of the one entrance to the volcano using metal dino gateways and shoot from the other side. Aldi if there’s any unwanted things in the volcano just fly them into the lava to kill them. :) plz up my first tip . Oh and make sure you have at least 250 narcotics and 150 trans darts 👌
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)
DON'T TRY TO TRAP THEM WITH STONE DINO GATE WAY!!!! IT JUST GIVE 20 SHOTS AND BROKE IT!!!!
(Learned from exprience)
It does fake torpor runs, dint be me just built a trap
Y'all this "passive to all tames" stuff does not work on ultimate mobile edition, so don't try to trap a giga by going up to it with a galliminus nd placing 4 metal gateways like i tried.
