What are tips for gigantopithecus? Tips and strategies for gigantopithecus in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
Passive tame. Best way is a trap. Make a trap with one foundation block. Make walls on two sides and one side with a door. Build walls two high with a hatch for a roof and leave one wall open for him to walk thru. Find a bigfoot and lead him into the trap by making him aggressive (there very territorial). Once on the trap seal him in and replace the door with a solid wall. Once he starts to attack the walls replace them all and he will become passibe. Carefully feed home berry thru the roof wile laying on your stomach until he is tamed. DO NOT STAY ON ROOF since bigfoot is territorial you will run the rick of making him aggressive. 90% secsess rate.
I tamed one of these as a first tame in my centre server, and it got killed by a flock of terror birds within five minutes. Make sure to keep this guy away from fast creatures.
Pick it up with an argy and place it somewhere it won’t get murdered by terror birds EVERY TIME!
Pick it up with a ab crab you wont get hit and he can't run.
Don't be curious and get too close I got rekt by one since I didn't have berries and it wasn't pretty getting punched feet feet and dieing from after damage
WHY ON EARTH DO U HAVE TO BE LEVEL THIRTY TO TAME LIKE I FED HIM SOOTHING BAM AND THEN SAW THE LEVEL REQUIRING LIKE WHY LET US LEVEL 25 PEOPLE DO IT AAAAARRRRGGGGG
Get a gille suit is get memos get one that somone hasn’t tried to tame lye down go to it feed it berries but don’t get to close it will kill you
When breeding these guys make sure you are ready with berries or meat to shove in the babies inventory or it will die! I didnt know this until 2min ago when my first baby died from starvation & now I have to go find another female to try again...be there the second the baby pops out of the mom with tons of food!
#PrayForShella hope you find your ape!
Always stay at least Two feet away from them when passive taming, they become angry when too close
Monkey oooo oooo aaaa aaaaa banana
These guys are just like the Chalicotheriums in terms of behavior: They are both naturally peace-loving creatures, however both are seriously enraged if you get too close.
Use minor balm and titanoboa kibble
She just take 1 Kibble if low level
Fair warning which I wish I had read before, when you try to tame it (passive tame with mejoberries) it WILL ATTACK you, found out a little late and sadly my iguanodon (Iggwardo) was on neutral, so the Gigantopithecus hit me and my Iguanodon rushes to defend me... He died. Heed my advice, not just for you, but for Iggwardo. Rip friend. Stay safe ya’ll.
I was getting attacked by bugs then out of nowhere I look behind me and miles away this dude starts running after me. I ran out of stamina. It killed me before the bugs killed me. :) I see all these other comments saying they kill whatever kills you, BS!
