More Gigantopithecus Taming & KO Tips
Don’t put walls around when taming, put 4 doorframes beforehand, pick up with argentavis and then you can get close enough to tame easily, while it can’t get out. It does not fit through the doorframe. DO NOT PUT DOORS ON DOORFRAME.
1 build a 4 by 4 foundation wood or stone the put the walls.
2 find a gigantopithecus
3 carry it with an argy
4 drop it in the box that you made
5 make 1 roof and place it anywhere outside the box
6 feed it
And thats how you tame a gigantopithecus with ease.
Place a stone foundation and four stone doorframes. Place inside by picking up with medium to large flying creatures ( I use argentavis), and drop it inside your doorframes. This prevents it from escaping and allows you to still get close without risking getting hit, also just crouch. I have tamed at least four this way and have trapped many more (to see how long it could survive against raptors and terror birds.) Please make it so others learn this easy way to stop them from getting away when you are taming them.
Tamed 2 ( lvl 125 and lvl 90 ) did some upgrading mostly to health and melee. Turned my back to cook some meat. Hear scary music, see lvl 130 Rex's corps just flying over my head.
I coloured mine green, named it shreak thèn dropped him in the swamp
From experience, fly with argie and drop them in a box and then take them. Passive tame btw. Mine kept getting attacked by terror birds and the tame bar would reset.
⤴️ so others morons like me will know.
Use gillie armor!
No gille armor all you need to do is crouch behind it and shove berries up its butt...I'm not kidding
If you go the route of putting it into an enclosed space DO NOT have any other or your tamed Dino’s in there it will randomly crash out and start beating your tamed Dino’s. She currently punching my lvl 150 trike
Just stay behind it crouching and shove berries up it’s ass
