Taming & KO Tips

How do I tame a giganotosaurus? Tips and strategies on taming and knocking out a giganotosaurus.
One of the easiest tames in the game, just a few swings with the club will do it. It'll take about 10 mins with raw meat to take, the saddle is unlocked at level 15, and he is a great beginner mount. Put him on passive flee though, in case dilos get to him.
I personally think that on the island you need to lure it to the beach and trap in the metal Dino gateway and large bear trap, trap because in the mountains at my level (69) rexes are a problem to me so your best bet to tame use the dinosaur gateway bear trap, trap and make it on the beach (if the mountain is close to a beach)
Pro tip on how to tame it: don’t
In the highlands of Ragnarok there is a glitch y lag spot. Giga woke up twice at 80,000 out of 93,000 torpor. There is something wrong here. I lost a woven an army and a Petra, not to mention over 10,000 narcotics. Wildcats needs to fix this crap. Upvote please.
I know everyone says to use Dino gates but they’re soooooooo expensive. So use billboards instead!
I tamed one in like 4 minutes I used a Rex to gather meat and prime that I just hopped on my stego and collected narcoberrys then I just went to sleep many many times to get spoiled meat (about 450) then I made it into a drug then I went giga hunting I shot a lvl 4 giga with (toxicant) i think that’s how you spell it) arrows with a cross bow until it got unconscious then I put the prime and normal meat in then the drugs I shoved a few dozen in its mouth that 4 to 6 minutes later it’s mine (I hope this is helpful) btw I had to kill a 3 Rex’s and 4 raptors in the process XD
Dont think to tame this when you're in low level
To only use 1 cooked fish meat your taming speed has to be at 449! Yes I did check no I didn't add an extra 4
True men will use fist.
Hey guys im calvin snd I would like to share with you a tip that has worked for me in successfully tsmig this beast.
All you need is
3 dinosaur gateway
One large bear trap
Atleast 100 plus tranqs
All u do is lure t into the trap and shoot
I highly recommend saving amber as you can get soothing balm which speeds the process
Take prime meat no raw meat but if you only have raw meat use with narcotics and soothing balm
Hoped this helped
Don't try to tame a lvl 100 solo, especially not on extinction.
I tried but had to defend the trap against Corrupted wasted over 500 tranq bullets on it...
Trap it with 4 Dino gates or billboards with a large bear trap to knock it out a prim tek bow is better than a crossbow or longneck
Haven't seen it mentioned so sorry if I missed it, but these guys lose food super fast. Keep an eye on your food levels and troughs with these guys around. Cryo pods will stop their hunger so they don't starve rage in your base on accident.
The hardest part about taming this monster was luring it into our trap. He wasn't interested in us as bait, so here is how we had to do it: get on your argentavis and pick up a tasty helpless creature like a megaloceros or a phoiomia. The giga will chase this creature for far longer than he will chase you or your tames. Have a friend on another argentavis ready to pick up aggro with another wild dino when yours inevitably gets chomped. Oh, and try not to die in the process. Good luck!
First tame tapajera next go to snow biome and bring rifle with darts lure the giga over a mountain use your tapajera to lan on mountain and start shooting and let your tribe mates do the rest
Completely passive walk up to it with a gully suit and feed it stay behind it
You just gotta remember to bilck blorp
If your looking to fame they normally spawn at mountains but I have seen some in the forests anyway get a quetzal with platform fly above and shoot with tranks be sure to be a bit higher than it so it can't bite u
Well me and my tribe mates get our tames out to scout for a decent level Giga, then when we find that Giga we either trap it with Dino gates or just tranq it till it falls unconscious. While we are pumping narcs in we have one of are tribe mates ride a meat-eater to bring food to the unconscious Giga that we're taming. Once you do this process over and over again, soon you will have a decent tamed Giga to take home to your base. Happy Arking!!
I play primitive pve So no Guns I've so far have 18 Gigas. My best way of getting them KO I use the waterfall and get them Stuck works like a Charm.
