Taming & KO Tips

How do I tame a giganotosaurus? Tips and strategies on taming and knocking out a giganotosaurus.
If it is a passive tame, get somthing that can fly, and feed it
Imprint is 3% per care get ready for sleepless nights
We tamed a 150, took 4 griffins 🤣, i'd say it's worth it tho

This dinosaur is a big creature that has a very biggest pet Dino and it has a beard
This is a great tame for begginers, just bola them and knock them out With you're club ore slingshot, bring 10 pieces of raw meat and 4 narcoberries. It doesn't need a saddle to ride and is very op when tames. Like so Bob's can see.... I'm just kidding, like seriously they are end game tames, don't try it!
When knocking out a Giga MAKE SURE FOR TAME EFFICIENCY GOES TO 0% so stats dont go down such as melee and Hp.
Make a trap like this: ___
|___ and put a large bear trap at the far end. Lure the giga in and have it step on the bear trap, the finish the trap by placing one more gateway like this___
|___| make sure to use metal dinosaur gateways, because the giga can’t break metal and it can’t fit thru them. Just ko and feed, and uve got a giga. (Warning: this takes 1,366 metal ingot, 400 cementing paste, 15 hide, and 10 fiber.) plz try this in creative in another world first tho to make sure ur doing it right bc doing it wrong is not a good idea.
Tame I. A single player world and transfer it to ur sever downdote if it doesn’t work
If you are on valguero,gigas tend to spawn in the middle of the map. And in the middle is a two entrance cave. Place two metal gates on both entrances, and Agro it. Get a tribe mate to place two more gates behind it and start tranqing it .
If you want to tame it then make some gate structures around when it starts to hit it then use assult rifle to kill it it won't attack you. Then resurrect it inside metal gates also use a large bear trap to counter the glitch. Boom it can't get out.
Tame it with darts.
Welcome
Instead of the famous large bear trap and 4 metal gates you can use metal fences and place one wall 3 high on 3 sides but on on the back of the giga place a metal door on the top (instead of the 3rd wall up) and once the giga is in open the door to the inside of the trap and giga cant escape. (If you found it hard to understand then I cant help🤷♂️) I have tried it and it works well 👍👍
I once lost my giga on a mountain..after awhile I found out that I’m not able to tp her back. So I went on a short mission to find her, I found her and she was on the mountain I left her on..gosh that scared me
IF YOU HAVE GOD OR ADMIN CONSOLE in your solo and want to easily tame this awesome creature, I would recommend not completing the hunt giga quest so you can use that to find it. Note that you will have to be within at lease 1 km for the tracking to render. Once you find a giga, if you have a flyer or other tame, park it on a ledge and if using god/admin infinite ammo with shocking tranq it out. Then once it is out and you most likely didn’t bring prime, put regular meat and go kill an argentavis for prime. Once you have enough prime, speed up to 400%. To level up a better giga, when the giga is unconscious put bio tox in its inv and feed it a lot of bio toxin. This will allow you to level the giga without it waking up due to the levels taking torpo from the giga. This method will allow you to get infinite levels. That is how you effectively and quickly tame a giga using god/admin console. Thank you.
The giga with tranq crossbow is so hard gave up and tamed a rex
And more trying to hunt a female rex
These things take 555 tranqs at level 130 they also use around 200 narcotics and lots of prime meat be carfull
Warning punching the giga with a fist is not a one hit flee, at least not for the giga
To tame it just make the classic trap, place 3 metal behemoth gates in a square shape, keep some space inbetween them to shoot from the outside, then place 1 or 2 large bear traps in the middle of the three, make sure to make the trap on a flat area, open one of the gates (it doesn't matter wich one) and lure the giga into the trap, a pteranodon should be enough to do this, make sure to hit the giga at least one, i recommend aiming at the tail otherwise you'll get destroyed with 1 bite, onche the guga enter the trap, it will be caught by a bear trap, you have a few seconds to close the gates then beggin shooting and have a lot of patienece, stay away from the trap, something like 30 m should be safe.
If you play on mobile go to the lava cave at the southeast of the island and tribute the artifact of the massive until you have an ascendant rifle with at least 1000 damage, with this rifle you'll knock out the giga a lot faster and with less darts and you don't have the risk of the rifle breaking mid-taming, also go to the cave at the south of the island to get some soothing balm.
A lvl 150 without soothing balm and ascendant rifle will take more than 500 darts, it will break at least 1 rifle and will take more than 50 prime meat, that's a damn lot of brontos even with a high level rex, and mot of the prime meat will also spoil so you'll have to keep an eye on the giga very often, it will become anoying if the taming is far away from your base, and the giga will also need more than a whole hour to tame, also the tamimg efficiency will decrease and your giga will lose some levels.
if you have an ascendant rifle and soothing balm a lvl 150 won't take more than 200 darts, it will fall asleep a lot faster, it will only need like 6 prime meat, you can get that from a few brontos, stegos or mamoths in less than 5 minutes, it will take a few minutes to tame and the taming efficiency won't go lower than 98% if you take care of it.
Also be sure and I mean 100% sure that you have AT LEAST 1 entire stack of biotoxin (500) or a bunch of stacks of narcotics (at least 1000) in the case of a high level giga. I personally prefer biotoxin, it's easy to farm if you have a good crossbow or pike, even a sword works pretty well.
I tamed one, it was hard, all my pets died, I died, but in the end I have a level 1000 giga
Men don't tame Giga with tranqs men tame giga with horses
