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.

To everyone who wants to tame a Giga and wants to use a Trap. The best one is the one where you use 14 Meta Pillars.(I can speak of experience it Always works) Of course you can use the Metal Gate Trap as well. But for the one with the Metal Pillars you need less Ressources and…

It takes a lot more tranq darts than you think... Dex said around 410 for the lvl 135 we just took down, it was more like 800 darts (with a ram rifle) and 150 arrows (with mc crossbow)... bring ALL the darts!!!

Wall Giga Wall Giga, We love Wall Gigas and especially if you’ve only now got your first flyer and tranqs!!!!!!! And Narcotics!!!!!!!!!

Step 1: Take 100 rare mushrooms

Step 2: charge giga with 2 clubs (1 backup)

Step 3: Tame giga

It’s simple people.

Ok so while trapping one can be effective, it's not technically necessary. If you stand on a ledge on a mountain that's too steep for it, it'll just stand there looking into your eyes and longing to feast upon your flesh as you make it go sleepy

To escape follow these steps

Step 1: offer the beast something to eat... like the guy next to you

4 metal Dino gates and a giant trap is all you need.

A Giga doesn’t do exactly 500 damage if you have armor. Giga’s also can’t damage metal gateways so building a few of those and create a circle with them, trap him inside and boom you basically have a giga, just make sure to have enough narcotics or bio toxins cuz they…

The amount of narcotics you need are most likely wrong. I used the amount it says for a 120. I used up 2 stacks of narcotics and a stack of biotoxins.

Ok. WHO IN THEIR RIGHT MIND WOULD ATTACK THIS THING WITH A PACHY 2000 TIMES? Also- would it even survive (the pachy, not the giga)?

If u own a tamed Giga try to not fall of something because if it loses 1000hp or more instantly , it will rage. That means that it will throw u off the saddle and probably eat you, so be aware!!

When I find a giga, I lure it to a location I find easiest to get it stuck. Easiest way to lure it is by placing a dodo or a monkey on the platform on your quetz. It'll register as a land dino and remain aggressive to you. Then get it into a position where if it runs away…

Search YouTube for ‘Captain Fatdog Giga Trap’. It costs the fraction of the materials of a typical gate trap and is way less risky. Just a few metal pillars is all you need. Fatdog traps are the way to go!

Shoot it as much as you can as quickly as you can i know dodex says not to but if your weapon breaks you can repair it and the Giga won’t lose torpor or if the server lags

I just tamed a giga yesterday by using normal dinosaur gates and this is how i did it Step1:Grab an animal with a flyer(I prefer argentavis) Step2:Lead it into the redwoodforest.Step3:Wait for it to go near a very big tree(Not redwood sapling)Step4:place three dinosaur gates…

There is a cheap way to trap and knock out a giga

What you need:

1.) Find a flat surface (so that the trap works well)

2.) Get 4-5 metal billboards

3.) Get a flyer that can carry some creatures (e.x. argy, quetzal)

5.)A small creature that can place the billboard while…
