How to tame a giga:

First you will need around 100-400 tranqs depending on its level (shocking tranqs are a good choice but spoil)

Also a good rifle (ascendant or any around their) and make sure you time each shot around 3-5 seconds

It's also recommended if U use a good flyer with decent health just in case it gets bit and high stamina and speed.

You can also make a trap if needed

Their torpor goes down quick so you will need lots of the sleeping stuff and you call also use soothing balm or sanguine made from 200 blood packs in a tamed Dracula's inventory.

That's all I can do rn, good luck!!

If you want a giga you absolutely need to trap it so here is my guide.

For the trap you will need 1x behemoth metal gate

6x regular metal gates and three bear traps

For placement place the big gate facing in the direction of the big boi

Then put the smaller gates in a triangle shape on the other side then put three bear traps Down because if something happens and one gets loose another one will catch it then lure the giga into the trap a fire away. Ps if you can try to use a good longneck or crossbow this will make it a lot faster personally I had an ascendant longneck with 423% dmg and it took 65 darts for a level 55 female and keep at least 200 narcotics on you the torpor drain is crazy. -potato

Next: argy

Hit that good button so peeps can see.

Looking for a action filled knockout and taming process, you found the right creature, For anybody who does not know or wants to know, I recommended reading this tip, I have tamed 2 gigas on singleplayer, and 3 of them on mutiplayer, anyways starting of with number 1. Giganotasaurus is a VERY, very dangerous predator, When severely damaged by a single attack it will activate its Rage buff, this buff makes its bite almost twice as deadly, gains a slight speed boost, and will automatically aggro on basically ANYTHING, I think if there were two gigas and one was raged, they would try and kill each other, Even killing one isn’t an option, the typical wild Giga starts with 80,000 health, and (I think) it has 150 melee dmg, and from what I know, they do 400 dmg per 100 md, sodevide that by 2 your thinking somewhere about 600 dmg per a single bite.

Up next is number 2, Make your move. Taming this beast is actually easier said than done, I suggest a quetz as your pet for taming this beast, as It can carry a lot of equipment you WILL need for taming, you need to prepare to tame this, the cheapest trap you can use is stone, know the higher the lvl the more dmg it does per second, so don’t use stone for high levels, I (most of the time) use metal Dino gateways, as they cannot destroy it, also bring 3 beartraps, a few stacks of narcotics, (or a lot of bio toxin) As much arrows and spare cross bows, or bows because if that one breaks game over, you can’t fly back to base and expect it to have the same amount of torpor as before. Bring a weapon of choice, for defending yourself from other creatures during or after knockout, I find swords or high ranking axes or rifles to work quite nicely, these creatures like quetz kibble, so definently consider making some, it’s expensive but worth making rather than crying that it takes so long to tame without it, make sure to pack urself food, and water (I use veggies as they do both) make sure u have decent ranking equipment such as: apprentice, journeymen, master craft as they inflict more torpor, thus lowering the tranqs needed.

And finnaly number 3. Location and apprehension. Finding one is hard if you don’t know where to look, I find them quite common arround the mountains of the island, most commonly in the arctic peaks, or the grand hills, Once you find a Giga find a flat area and place the trap, leave space in the corners of each one so that 1, the Giga cannot get out, and 2 it will get in the trap easier. DO NOT place all of them down, place 3 in a box shape, and save the last one for later, one the gates are down, place the beartraps and spread them out inside the trap one ready this brings us to 4. Lure the Giga in a straight path with no obstacles (removing them safely will be less obstructions that might send the Giga to the wrong direction) one inside the trap, insure that it is stuck in the trap (it will be looking down and head tilted and biting down on the trap) now fly behind it with your flying pet, and place down the final gate behind it forming a box arround the Giga that will not give way, or let the giga out, this will make taming the giganotasaurus easier, next grab a few bows or crossbows, and as much tranqs as you can carry, do not use rifles for darts, it takes longer for it to knock out because of its long reload time, and does not have a headshot torpor multiplier, crossbows and bows work better, grab one stack of narcs, and as much tranqs u can carry without becoming easy prey for other animals, now you can safely begin the knockout process, once knocked out, take all of ur narcs (100) and stuff 50 of it in to give you time to grab the rest of the supplies, 10 quetz kibble should be enough for a lvl 100 or lower, the more the safer chance of taming it, check on it every 20 or so seconds to make sure it’s torpor is not going down, it loses 500 torpor per second so stay vigilant. Enjoy your new tamed Giga!! I really hope this info helped you! Up if helpful! 👍👍👍

Alright get ready for a fighter here.

1: Get a lot of shocking tranqs, ofc with the longneck rifle

2: Have a nice flier just incase, preferably an argie

3: Build a trap for the giga or camp a mountain.

4: Make sure you have kibble/prime meat to tame it

5: Shoot it till knocked out

6: Feed it prime/kibble

7: Enjoy! Hope this helped 😊

You can knock this fella out without metal gates. All you need is 4 behemoth gates, and a bear trap. Put them in a square shape, and put the trap in the middle. Don’t forget to put gates on the gate frames! Make sure there are small gaps in the corners of the gateframes so you can still shoot tranqs at it. Lure the giga into the trap, and when it can’t move because of the bear trap, close the gate behind it, then start shooting it. I hope this has been a big help!

To find a good giga on mobile:

1. Tidy save and fly to a few spawn points and normal save if there is no giga

2. Repeat until u find one - if it is not the lvl u want, restore last save and fly near it without spawning in (to save time) then save again

3. Keep restoring save and then go near the area to spawn it in again and again until u find one with a high lvl, nice colours, etc.

Hoped this helped - For me it’s the fastest way to not get a bad lvl giga as they are pretty common at mid-low lvls

I tamed one using my argy with 10k hp. I built 2 metal gates around a bear trap (a common trap a lot of people use.) However I kept messing up and having to demolish my gates. After making multiple mistakes I found out that metal billboards work too. (the big signs. not the little ones.) Also, my 10k hp argy couldn’t tank it for long to lead it into the trap. The giga I tamed was lvl 25 and it was still hitting for like 400 dmg per bite. You’re never invincible with these things. I brought about 600 tranq arrows and over 1k narcotics (overpreparing is much better than underpreparing.) I lead it down to the beach to trap it. Its a flat area so it works well. Lead it into the bear trap, place billboards or gates behind it, and then shoot it like crazy with tranqs. (it should be 100% stuck by the time you start shooting.) Also, honorable mention! IT RUNS FASTER THAN ARGYS. I havent tried with Ptera but they have trash health anyways.

U actually just need 3 Metal dino gates and a large bear trap to knock a giga , just place 2 metal gates like a top side of triangle / \ , then place the large bear trap. Lure the giga to the trap , then place the last metal gates behind it . Just make sure the gap isnot very big. Then shoot it with about 150 tranq arrow and there u knocked it out.

I recommend if you’re raising a baby there food drains really fast sometimes and mine died so, I use potent dust in their inventory and put all 50 of the levels into its food and then after that potent dust into the rest of their stats. Really helpful for not babysitting and actually going around and doing other things

Once you get giga eggs and everyone tells you how much the Gigas eat when growing up don’t listen to them. I play completely solo on official 1x and can raise these things with a Maewing and a tek trough. 1 giga eats about 1 to 1.5 tek troughs every 24 hours. So if you have 2 or 3 tek troughs of raw meat and it’s a juvenile or above you can step away from ark and GO OUTSIDE AND GET FRESH AIR. Also a maewing filled with cooked meat can last a giga through the whole baby stage without the meat spoiling before baby stage ends. So a recap is baby stage use maewing with slot cap of cool meat and then use raw meat in a few tek troughs. Easy raise. I do this solo on official 1x
