From experience, three key things to focus on when taming: 1.) Always bring 400-500 extra narcotics and tranq arrows/darts. 2.) Never put kibble in a dino's inventory. 3.) Lure it away from any water. When it is knocked out, give it 1 narcotic every 2-3 seconds and every 5-10 minutes, look around and check for any hostile dino's.

When applying narcotics to your knocked out giga use your dododex app beforehand to find out how low to let it's torpor drop to apply the suggested nacortics all at once. Then all you would need to do is sit and watch. it would also be a good idea to have extra narcotics/tranqs you can never be overprepared!

For a low level giga trap it in a circle of stone dinosaur gates, for a high level use metal. The torpor of a giga drops about 200/second so if you stop shooting it it will lose it all. It's possible to solo tame, though the more you have the less time it will take to knock down. You should use darts, always bring a couple extra hundred.

An easy way to tame/knockout a giga is to, craft 4 metal dinosaur gateways with a large bear trap. You place 3 of the gateways in a square shape spread a few inches from each other. Then place the large bear trap in the middle. Then with an argy or ptera pick up a dodo and lure the giga into the center of the gates to get trapped by the trap then jump off and place the last Dino gate in the open area and the giga will be trapped and able to shoot and tamed:)

So the beat way to tame a giga would be to use the grapple hook. It allows you to hang over the giga and keep his attention on you and not other dinos around you. You want to either use a quetz or argy and have a buddy fly it. Also once the giga is down allow his torpor to drop to the last bit and pump him full of narcotics using the amount the app specifies. It will save you a lot of trouble and you can literally go do anything else for a solid hour.

If you have a quetzal then you can use it to for over the giga then unmount on the platform and make sure to use the compound bow with shocking arrows. Make sire to aim for the head and hit consistently and bring At least 200 arrows. This is one of the safest and quickest ways to knockout a giga. You can then wait a while when it is unconscious make sure not to feed it. And when you have waited for a very long time and made sure not to feed it and keep it asleep and alive with membrane then use soothing balm if you have some and feed them some food. The taming bar will go up extremely fast this way and it will keep you safe.

1. Just get 4 metal gates and 1 giant bear trap put them in like a square form the place bear trap in the middle 2. use a flyer vest to use a argy with good speed and health lead it to trap and place the last metal gates and knock and feed it quartz kibble boom you got a giga *use balms if you play on mobile*

If u want to tame this beast. You have two ways

Passibe taming and violent taming

Violent taming:

Find a giga and trap it with 3 metal dinosaur gateways and bear trap in the middle. Lure the giga, it will step on bear. Now quickly put the 4 gate way on the opening side and knock it out

Put food of ur choice and feed it large amount of narcotics

Passive method:

Apply bug repellent(giga wouldn't get agro on insects)

Go to the giga face and feed it a soothing balm(for faster result)

Now u can feed it the food of your choice

But becareful bcuz bug reppelent duration is only 10 minutes

Hope u have a nice day

Easiest way to knock it out is actually super easy! You only need a club, a bola, a gulilabola, and a dodo. First, to get the gulilabola, you need to throw a bola at a spino, and then it will float back to you upgraded. Now that you have your upgraded bola, you bola the dodo, gulilabola the Giga, and club the dodo to death. Then shut off ARK and go eat dirt and log back on. The Giga will be knocked out and ready to tame! Up so newbies can see.
