How ARK players tame and knock out the Giganotosaurus: what to feed it, what to knock it out with, and how to keep it safe.

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…

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-…

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…

Once you think you’ve made enough tracks to tame one, trust me and make more bc these things tank

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…

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…

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.

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…

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.

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)

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…

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

One does not simply tame a giga without a few deaths

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.
