Taming & KO Tips

How do I tame a giganotosaurus? Tips and strategies on taming and knocking out a giganotosaurus.
Naa me not tame giga. today me go tame giga with 150 tranq aroow- a normal person who's English is very dengerous.
They are in Fjordur, at least both in Normal and R versions. For trap captain fatdog's is nice.
USE METAL DINOSAUR GATE because gigas can’t break metal structures
4 metal Dino gates and a giant trap is all you need.
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.
Riding a giga
Fall off a cliff
giga raged
you run
You don’t have enough speed to out run it
you hear foot step behide you
It’s getting closer
AHHHHHHHHHHH
Without soothing balm I still used 200+ narcotics- feed about 15 or so and if taming with prime meat, stash a raptor somewhere so you can go harvest fresh prime meat while you know your narcotics are holding the line- they drain FAST.
Wake up in 4 minutes after nocked out
Your gunna need tranks lots of tranks
This is for all the mobile players who want a monster! So you need 4 stone gateways and 3 baretraps or one. Get it to chase you make sure you have a box with the way the giga gets in open. You run and let it chase you until you go through. It be trap and run behind it and fill box him like Fortnite. Then knock him out WARNING: you need ALOT of tranqs. Then idk if this always happen but have one 10x palm and one prime meat WARNING: this is how I tamed it then bam! Youre now crying in happiness! Hopefully..,
Bring more tranq arrows then you think you’ll need
You actually just need 3 metal dino gates and a large bear trap to knock a giga , first just place 2 metal gates like a top of triangle / \ . Then put the large bear trap next to the little gap between the gates , lure the giga into the trap. Then put the last Metal dino gate behind it as fast as possible and just make sure the gap isnt really big /_\ . Shoot it with about 150 tranq arrows and bring 200 biotoxin
With sanguine elixer and instead of using exceptional kibble use extraordinary kibble then it will tame really quick on official servers.
Giga gives very low damage to metal structures, so using a metal gateway or billboard will be a great idea.
I would recommend a tame that can survive a couple hits from a giga and 4/5 Dino gates that are metal and 3/4cross bows just in case and lots of nars they wake up fast so get the giga to agro on the tame run in trap move far enough away so giga can’t hit tame sneak behind giga then place last gate then rest is up to you hope this was helpful 🦖🦕😄
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!!
Just pelted one with 100 Tranq darts and it still didn't go down, note to self, bring more next time.
Forget about needing a bunch of dino gates and bear trap. Search up "How to build a giga taming trap" by Captain Fatdog on YouTube. Only need 4 pillars, basically. Works like a charm, EZPZ
Very easy tame, use 3 metal Dino gates with a bear trap in the middle, lead it in on foot then run around the back and close it up with a 4th.
In mobile, sleep next to it while it’s awake. Then knock it out. Tamed one with few narcs and no soothing balm. DOESN’T WORK ON PC!!!
