What is a giganotosaurus used for? giganotosaurus battling strategies in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
If you’ve tamed one of these, but you’re not lvl 96, run cave of the strong… you’ll get a giga saddle blueprint.
I’m on mobile, so I don’t know about consoles and stuff, but if you cave tame an arthro, you can run the strong cave EASILY. Just take a few fria curry and about ten-fifteen medical brews at the least. Nothing will attack you, and you get some of the best loot in the game. I literally did this cave right after the hunter cave… that’s how easy it was. And look at me! Level 74 and I got me a giga!
You all can do it too! 🔺if found helpful
Person who said they wanted a platform saddle.
Firstly, oh, sure, it's soooo balanced to have a F*CKING 17K HEALTH AT LEVEL ONE, INCREDIBLY HIGH DAMAGE TAME WITH AN ARMY OF RAPTORS ON TOP,
Secondly, these things will eat you over a bit of fall damage, imagine what they'd think of a platform saddle.
Thirdly, look at them, to they look like they could hold up a platform? Do they? Really? I mean, seriously.
Everything you need to know about the Giga
1. Taming. I suggest getting a flying mount with good stamina (argy) and using metal buildings to trap it. Then just shoot it
2. Tamed. When the Giga is tamed it loses around 65k hp. And loses a lot of attack. The giga has a bad turn radius thanks to its massive size but makes up for it in brute strength and power.
3. Rage. When a tamed giga loses a lot of hp in little time it will turn into a rage mode which is noticeable by glowing eyes. When in rage mode it will kick you off the saddle if your on it and kill you and your tames.

Beware Gigas get nerfed once tamed so if tame try taming a lvl 140+ or whatever is max lvl wild spawn in your server a 20 giga have around 80 k health in wild and will one shot your dinos but once tamed will be reduced to 17k health and superless attributes like 400 stamina which is total shit
