Tips & Strategies
These guys should be able to wield stone tools and use giant bows that require ballista ammo to fire. Or at least be capable of throwing spears! After the dinopithecus release these guys have been made pretty redundant and need some love

Who thinks we should get a tlc where it is much more like a giant quadruped orangutan. Maybe it would be able to climb and jump from tree to tree
Fun fact: you can actually break stone structures with this guy.
PC: press c
Xbox/PlayStation/Switch: Right stick (push)
Mobile: how am i supposed to know?
So uh. They cant jump and cant climb buildings as I expected. Theyre not mini Kong Kong. Just look like one.
Would be awesome if Gigantopithecus could ride two-seated mounts with you, even if just for us singleplayers to feel like we have company!
TLC patch to be added in March 2018 to add armor degrading attack, jump ability, and aiming system for throw. Like for people to see!
On mobile, you can actually harvest fiber with them. Just get off of your ape in a bush and they will squat down and gather a good amount of fiber.
Possibly the most useful creature to go caving with as his small size but large health and damage allows him to withstand onycs,spiders and scorpions haven't encountered a arthurplura yet so not sure how effective he is against it
To the people saying that these things should be able to wield swords:
Imagine being on a pvp server, and then someone with a fully imprinted and mutated big monke with 1.5K% melee shows up and pulls out an ascendent sword that does 400 base damage...
Sounds pretty balanced and fun
Situation described above will result in 6000 damage per hit btw, aka enough to kill tamed giga (without saddle) in 3 hits
Can climb on zip lines.
Absolute spider monkeys. Mission impossible planet of Apes
