Taming & KO Tips

How do I tame a gigantopithecus? Tips and strategies on taming and knocking out a gigantopithecus.
Easiest way to tame it if you play with at least one friend is to pick it up with quetzal, fly low to the ground amd feed it from behind. You won't aggro it, it won't turn around and won't run away :)
My dad
Use ghillie armour to feed him. Dont walk too close to them or they will hit you and you will lose your taming progress. Just give them space. Another good way to tame them is to make them mad and lock them up in a cage 1x1 with a hatch as roof then get him in there and get in the roof and feed him!
Easy to tame if you have the time just try not to agro it. Easy way to help get fiber.
I just love getting a piggy back ride from these guys and they can throw you pretty high and far. My gigantopithicus is glitched for some reason. When he throws me he just starts wandering I don't set him to wandering. And disable wondering isn't even active when I try to make him stop moving.
It is a PASSIVE tame. Mejoberries are the best berries for him. But just don't try to tame him if you're lower than lvl 30: He can only be fed at (your, not the monkey's) lvl 30+.
With a Dimorphodon on your shoulder it does not aggro on you when taming.

How to Tame
1 Get a lot of Mejo Berries (get them from large breachiosauruses or Diplodocus) and some ghille gear
2 crouch behind it and give it some Mejo Berries every time it gets hungry.
3 Name it and it does not need a saddle to ride!
The easiest way to tame is find one wandering around in the redwoods biome or highly forested areas: to tame is:
1. Get a lot of berries
2. Find one wandering around
3. Sneak up behind with berries equiped in the last item slot
4. Feed him
5. Tamed!
Pick up with Wyvern and drop in a pen. Full ghillie and it will not see and in the pen it cannot wander into dangerous areas
You can actually starve tame these for a faster taming you just have to wait 1-2 seconds. Put the berries in your last slot and just wait for it's food to go down then you can add the berries practically one after the other :) also make sure it's inna taming pen and is able to starve and not find food out in the open.
Ghille makes the gigantopithecus Agro only if you hit it, you can literally walk right up to its face and it won’t attack you
You will need to be lvl 30 to be able to tame them
How do you tame it
A mini King Kong just build a enclosure and make a metal door and say to noobs hit it it's not aggressive :)
I tried to tame this as a begginer but it does NOT work you have to atleast be level 30
Put him in enclosed pin and use a computer with google timer
It's easy to kill jump into its enclosure and it'll be shot dead.
Run because Bigfoot will find you if u don't run. So Run
