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.

I already tamed an giga at lv 78 and the tip was just get lots of tranquilizing darts and when he runs get into an area where he will get stuck while running and that's it easy tame. Btw be on top of an area that's above the length of him.

However many narcos you think you need, triple it and then add another thousand

Tamed this thing knowing it will have much weaker stats, still got disappointed by the stats SCALE on level up, absolute garbage, this thing needs to rest every 50 meters sprint and it doesn't help no matter how mnay levels you put in stamina, a decently leveled up rex or…

Found mine around LAT 22.9 LON 48.9

Lvl 125 female tamed it with about 2*40 pieces of reg meat 10% per bite with with about 1000 -3000 bio toxin

Took about 100 darts and 100 arrows to knock hope this helps (and one 10% soothing balm)

On mobile you just need this a compound bow can get it with arthro and 4 metal gate 1 large bear trap and when you trapped it spam it with tranq arrows give it some soothing balm 10x and make sure you pack a good amount of bio toxin and now you have a trash giga with 18000 hp…

The way I've learned to tranq Dino's is to wait about 4 seconds between shots to let torpor rise, DO NOT DO IT WITH THIS GUY. Shoot as fast as you can reload and pull the trigger.

The giga is a pretty hard tame if your wanting one. Gigas can destroy lots of stuff, and it has a okay speed. Get a ton of darts and aim for the head, you might also want to stand on a mountain. Bring a lot of narcotics with you, your gonna need it. Add a soothing thing with it…

I've tamed hundreds of giga. This "IS" the best trap.

As for everything else, bring 2x the amount of supplies that you think you will need.

I had a giga glitch on me once and instead of just the 87 shocking tranqs…

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…

How once found a gigs on the frozen tooth so it could be any mountain area on the island map they can spawn

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

Hatching a giga egg in an incubator with full boost is simple. Use 44 heat. IT WILL WORK.

Don’t even bother using normal weapons, use ascendant crossbows/longnecks from lava cave.

Bring bio toxin because this mofo be waking up quicker than your drunk friend when you tried to draw on his face while he was asleep

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…

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.
