YOU NEED FERT EGGS!! Levels DON’T matter!

After different attempts this worked best for me:

Step1: Solo or with a tribemate, scatter fert eggs all around nest, distanced about 3-4 foundations away from the nest.

Step2: You’ll hear/see mom attacking the egg(or tribemate can let you know) and that’s when you want to hide.

Step3: emote with the baby and if mom eats the egg it’s okay, she’ll come back and aggro on you

Step4: have your tribemate run into the nest to take over or if solo, run away leading her towards something else to aggro.

Step5: repeat the steps 2 - 4 until tamed.

After taking you can use your tamed gigantoraptor to pickup ORPHANED babies

While taming it an alpha rex decided it would be funny to 'help'

If the baby refuses to do the taming minigame with you, try breaking some of the rocks/trees around the nest. I think whatever wildcard did to prevent trapping the parent extended to ANYTHING that could potentially stop the parent from reaching the nest. I tried multiple times to tame a baby and got no response, but as soon as I cleared the area for the parent, the taming game worked first try.

That one tip where they say you don’t need insert eggs is not true! The eggs must be fertilized

I’ve learned that you DONT even need a fertilized egg. Just make sure the parent isn’t getting attacked by any Dino’s. All you need is full Ghillie suit, sneak up to the nest but make sure the parent don’t see you sit in the nest, and then you can start imprinting on the baby. Up for those who can’t make a lot of eggs like me!

Step one. Sneak into nest

Step two. Imprint on babys.

Step three. Run for your life with baby.

Fun fact! Unlike other babies, if you eliminate the parent, you still can't claim the baby. Learned the hard way 😅

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)

The dossier came out finally! Ok so I’m the wild they have nests and they protect their eggs to the death and will even except other creatures babies into their brood, (ASA will have baby Dino’s that spawn in the wild, so if the mother of the baby dies, the gigantoraptor will take care of it) you can’t tame adults, you have to (I don’t know if you gotta kill the mother, or just be careful, or distract her or what..) then you gotta earn the babies trust, and it will be yours (probably feed it…) once it’s an adult, it can use it’s call to attract orphan wild dinos and take care of them, (idk if this is going to be the only way to tame the wild babies or not.) also it and it’s young (the babies following it wild or her own) get an attack buff when near each other, I’m confused on how this is helpful because the babies are weak and will just die.. maybe she has to die first and they are invulnerable, 🤷🏻‍♂️ But that feature would probably be more helpful for base defense. Anyway that’s the gigantoraptor next creature vote is for aberration and the top ten are looking good so stay tuned.

THESE ARE ONLY ON ARK ASCENDED,

If you're on ark survival evolved- you can NOT find them.

Sorry.

If you already tamed a Gigantoraptor, you can skip the minigame taming mechanic for further wild ones by simply killing the wild parent, roaring, then clicking E on the wild baby whilst on your Gigantoraptor. Congratulations, you tamed your new baby Gigantoraptor in record time!

Can claim after killing parent as long as you have a gigantoraptor to claim it with

Shares therizino spawns. Whilst nests are sometimes near the rivers' edges, they can also be found on grassy plains near green ob, and in the middle of the forest north of red ob.

As of summer 2024, traps still work. However, from my testing, it seems you need to let the parent out and let it walk to its nest after every 3 or so interactions with the baby, and then retrap it.

Use a firtilized Rex egg and do one interaction with the baby pick up the Rex egg and repeat I did this and only used 1 egg for a lvl 150

FYI this is NOT coming to Ark: Survival Evolved it will be coming to Ark: Survival ASCENDED. The last thing coming to Evolved is the Rhinio btw

Good tame. Can no longer gate trap parents. Use fert eggs (rex or above preferred) to lure parent, or have a buddy run interference using a tame to block.

It can carry eggs in its inv regardless of level and cooks them down to 0% like an incubator. Each bird gives a feather based on its highest base stat that when fed to a female tame increases the subsequent baby's chance of inheriting that stat.

It also imprints babies to it in addition to your own and when nearby gives the baby's a 10% damage reduction.

They also spawn on aberrant on ascended

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 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙏🏻

If you think that this fellow will be small you couldn’t be more wrong. This dino is the size of a t-Rex
