Tips & Strategies
Okay. Find a nest. Usually around rivers and grass/jungle areas.
The baby will always be around the nest. If it's not, there's a number of bugs that can be the cause.
For this to work; The baby and the nest and the mom all have to be together in the same close vicinity.
Okay, the correct way to distract the mother is to throw out a fertilized egg close by.
Aggro will get you a few times but keep trying till you get it right.
Once you see the animation of her eating the fertilized egg, go to the nest. Hide in it.
The baby will now come to you after a few moments if not bugged and will literally get into a stance in front of you.
It will preform 1 of 3 moves. D pad, Left, Down, Right
All little mimic/dance moves that increase the babys taming with each successful one you do in time, mimicking it.
After mom gets done eating she immediately comes straight back to the nest.
My experience allowed me to just quickly run from her in time while her back was turned in that split second moment from hiding.... but definitely keep a flying creature close by in case of things going south.
The larger the fertilized egg, the longer she takes to eat it. Eggs that worked for me was Rexs, Carchs, Gigas, Brontos, Yutis, All the eggs of those creatures worked for me and it took her at least a good solid +45-60 seconds to eat them each. For max levels.
Good Luck Out There! I Hope This Helps!
This creature is crazy fun!!! Has a flutter ability exactly like the Terror Bird but the gliding is WAY more maneuverable. Jumps like a Reaper almost compared to size. Main attack uses its Beak, and other attack will use both its huge legs to separately stomp. Aloooooot of other crazy good features to this Oviraptorosaur, specifically to do with babies.
Tame it and find out for yourself ππ»ππ»ππ»
More Gigantoraptor Taming & KO Tips
Iβve learned that you DONT even need a fertilized egg. Just make sure the parent isnβt getting attacked by any Dinoβs. All you need is full Ghillie suit, sneak up to the nest but make sure the parent donβt see you sit in the nest, and then you can start imprinting on the baby. Up for those who canβt make a lot of eggs like me!
Don't need eggs take a full grown Gigaraptor kill mom then riding use r3 babies bottles will show up put crossbar on baby h I t triangle will tame
To tame this fast beast, you cannot tame an adult, so before you tame one, you will need to distract the giganto with eggs. Then, steal one of the eggs from the nest and run. Once it hatches, knock it out and tame it. Good luck taming!
Step 1, bring an egg or two just in case ( i brought rex eggs)
Step 2, find a nest with parent and baby.
Step3, place the egg with some distance from the nest, and wait for the parent to see the egg and start to pick it.
Step 4, make ur way to the nest and hide in it(there is an interaction button that says hide in nest.
Step 5, wait for the baby to start the minigame for taming the baby.
Step 6, the parent should come back to the nest shortly after starting the minigame, dont freak out, it wont attack you while you do the minigames 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 minigame, therefor u should put up another egg close to the nest to make the parent return, then the minigame with the baby will resume.
Step 6, once the minigame is 100% u got urself a Gigantoraptor :) and no u cant tame the parent (i play official pve)
Step one. Sneak into nest
Step two. Imprint on babys.
Step three. Run for your life with baby.
I had 1 rex egg with me cause i thought it was enough , it wasnt but i had full ghille armor on and was able to tame it with the mother next to me not seeing i was in the nest.
**If you already have a Gigantoraptor!!**
1. Have Gigantoraptor
2. Kill the wild parent
3. Find baby - easier to wait until it stops running away
4. Roar your Gigantoraptor (should be crouch button while riding)
5. While still riding Gigantoraptor, look at baby and press the claim button (Xbox = Y, Playstation = Triangle)
β If you dismount tame, get back on and try again, claim message should appear when in the right range β
IMPORTANT!!!
- If the wild baby is a HIGHER level then your own Gigantoraptor at tame ( Wild = 150, Yours =130) you are not allowed to hold it in your basket β You might still be able to claim it, but I am still unsure:(
Using ghillie at night doesnβt work π₯²
Two days and two hour raise. On trough in 5 hours.
