ARK: Survival Evolved & Ascended Companion
Tips & Strategies
Note: you can not tame parent
In order to tame, you need…
Fertilized eggs (need about 3, but bring more just in case.) Almost any egg works but the bigger it is, the more time it gives you.
Ghillie (spelled it wrong probably) suit
1. Find a gigantoraptor with a nest and place fertilized eggs near nest but not to close so the parent can see you
2. When the parent leaves to eat the fertilized eggs go into nest and there should be a button that allows you to go into the nest
3. When the baby gigantoraptor comes back into the nest it will hop and do an action.
4. When it does the action, there should be three kinds of actions you can do and a picture above your hot bar should appear and tell you what button to press to do a specific action.
5. When you repeat the action the taming bar will up and the baby will leave
6. Repeat until tamed
Another note: the parent WILL come back after each eaten egg. When this happens, find a hiding place with the nest in sight. Not to far, not to close. When it leaves again, go back into nest and start taming again. I am pretty sure the taming bar does not go down when you leave as the parent comes back.
I saw a gigantoraptor in ark ascended the center. They prob didn’t add it to the center Dododex
If you already have a gigantoraptor you can imprint the little ones if the parent is dead and if bonded fully they work really well as pack creatures
Step 1, YOU DONT NEED EGGS!!
Step 2, find a nest with parent and baby.
Step 3, while the parent is looking away SNEAK into the nest ( it will prompt you to push the interaction button)
Step 4, wait for baby to com to nest 🪺, it will alert by jumping and flapping its wings once indicating taming process is about to begin.
Step 5, baby will either spin (left), bow (down), or flap it wings (right) (controller dpad keys)
Step 6, the parent should must be allowed to come back to the nest and will return shortly after starting the taming process has started, if the parent does happen to attack you use a flyer and rest the parent by flying straight up over the nest and fly out of rended then return. If you have done it correctly the parent wont attack you while you do the taming process with the baby, it will protect you and the baby from any intruder, ur tribemate can even stand there with u beside the nest, but any sudden movement from your mate will alert the parent and attack, during a conflict where the parent runs away too far will make the baby pause the taming process. If and when this should happen to you, reset the parent by getting agro and flying up over the nest out of render. Return back to the nest and repeat steps 3-5. Resuming the taming process.
Step 6, once the taming process is 100% you have yourself a beautiful baby Gigantoraptor.
Side note: Parent is untamable
Good Luck Suvivors!!
Uhh.. just glad to be here :)
Hey y’all I haven’t found a single one and I’m by the middle of the map bottom we’re swamp is tbh I haven’t seen a single one
I was setting up my new base untill I saw a 135.
Once I build my foundation I went away and then came back to another one right next to my new base. The cords are 62.5 Lat 23.5 Lon if you want to find one👍
So the eggs didn’t work on the ones I got. I had to wait for the parent to be fighting something and was able to sit in the nest. I don’t know if that’s normal or not but I was able to get two of them that way.
I can’t wait for ASA it’s shaping up to be pretty epic!!
If you already have an adult gigantoraptor; use it to kill the mother, press R3 and claim the baby whilst still on your gigantoraptor, might have to chase it a bit 😂 then cryo it and go home.
1) Bring Fertilized eggs with you try for a bigger Dino egg to be safe, you might need about 2-4
2) Drop egg close to nest but make sure its far enough away so that the Gigantoraptor will come out and won't aggro you while you are in the nest
3) Run into nest and "hide" in the nest and wait for baby to come into the nest
4) Mirror the movements of the baby
5) Repeat until tamed
Another thing you can do is bring a friend to pick up the mom with a Rhynio and you can the baby with no issues, I just wouldn't kill the mom as it might affect the taming process.
Last tip: Once tamed pluck feathers as they can be used in breeding to get higher Stat of parents
Find them around green ob, beware if danger
If you already have an adult g-raptor, go kill the wild parent and then run up to the orphaned baby while you’re on your g-raptor, until you’re close enough to imprint on it, just like a normal wild orphaned Dino. The g-raptor allows you to imprint on wild dinos and also gives a small tame boost
You don't need ghillie but you also can wear any armour because it will hear it I don't it with no armour just a tek helmet and it still works
If you have an adult giga raptor depending on the lvl of baby you can kill parent and tame baby using the baby call with ur current one.
It can also be done with argy eggs (they were fertilized)
