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.

Just trap with metal gates and a bear trap, if that's too expensive you shouldn't even be going for a giga.

I solo tamed one on 278... Just stand on the back of a quetz and shoot the mofo in the face abunch, i strongly recommend kibble and a shot ton of narcotics

When the giga is knocked out. Most people don't know this but if you let its torpor get down to 5000 and than feed it 3000 Narcotics its torpor will keep going up for about the next 4-5 hours. Bet you did not know that :)

When taming a giga after you are able to get it in a position or trap where you can pump enough tranqs into it only pump about 5-10 extra of what Dododex says because it takes time for a giga to KO because of thousands of torp. Then setup a temp turret for trolls!

Use a quetz with a platform saddle at use a longneck rifle to knock it out while standing on the platform and after you tame you can move it with the saddle!

Giga's are easily drowned and are extremely slow in water leaving them open for attacks

My friend and I found one at the canyon near the hidden lake, and your best best is to make as many tranq darts/arrows as you can. One method is toride a quetz, dismount and don't fall off and you will be fine, or you can use the Dino gate method where you make metal Dino…

When taming a giga double the amount of tranq arrows the dododex say I tame a giga everyday on our server I know the spawn patterns and the amount of tranqs are always wrong it's double and sometimes even more in triple digit gigas

The best way to knock out a Giganotosaurus is to use a Quetzal with a platform saddle, have 1 player flying and have 2 or 3 on the platform shooting tranq arrows or tranq darts down at the Giganotosaurus, once it is unconscious have 1 of your players killing wild dinos on a…

Get 4 stone gates and gate ways many people think tranquil darts are good but they suck the long neck takes way to long to reload and by the time u shoot agian it's torp is gone use tranquil arrows and make sure to have at least 2 tribe mates with u and of course bring…

Test have shown that gigas are hard to tame solo but if u have to if u place down 3 metal Dino doors and place a large bear trap inside the doors center. Have it follow u in run out place last door then blast with tranqs. That's the easiest method in my oppinion

Make sire you have more than person helping you. Don't try to solo tame. Must have a questzal before you tame. 1 flyer 2 shooters. And if you need get help from another tribe.

Also when tranqing tranq non stop if stop or chase for more than 30 sec half or more of what you just did went down the drain 3 ppl knock it out quick def need quetz head shots are barely better than body shots if u have a giga with 40000+ health and 40000+ dmg aka imprinted…

Many people go into the game with a decent amount of narcotic that's their mistake you need a lot and I mean a lot. The giga is like an addict it loves narcotic and I recommend you have more then 2/3 tribe mates helping to knock it down. Good luck survives you'll need it.

Make sure to have an argentavis pick you up and u tranquilize it while your picked up

To knock it out you get it stuck in between 4 metal Dino gates. How do you do this is have at least u and a friend. What you do is put up 3 gates in a square shape. Fly a bird and have the giga follow you. Make it run to the trap and once it is in the trap use a friend to put…

The best way to tame a giganotosaurus is to make 4 metal gateways and a large bear trap have two people one to make it follow him into the trap and one to place down the final gateway behind the giga this can also be done with 1 player but is dangerous.

You can solo down them if you have a quetz. Trap gigs into any kind of rock and shoot arrows once stuck. Best way

-2 points10 years oldReport

Use metal dinosaur gates and bear traps to trap it if you cant get these lead it somewhere where you can get it stuck and I recommend taming it with 3 or more players so one can fly if it trust to run while the others shoot and if your meat taming have preserving bens or a…
