What are tips for gigantoraptor? Tips and strategies for gigantoraptor in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
First what you want to do is lead the parent away from the nest, to do so, aggro it and have it chase you away from the nest. Then surround the nest with stone gates. You will be able to go about imprinting with no interpretation.
They patched, being able to imprint on the baby with your own GigaRaptor
Once you have one, they will raise your baby's for you and feed them. I had raptors in the saddle for hours and most of the food spoiled with very little consumage. My next test is to put a dino in the saddle with no food at all in its inventory, to test my theory completely.
Just wait till the adult is distracted run to the nest and hide .once your hidden you could tame him in peace and won't get attack by the mom or dad
If you have all ready a adult tamed Gigantoraptor you only need to kill the parent and press C hability and then press E to imprint the baby Gigantoraptor! If you don’t have Gigantoraptor the easy method put billboards metal and large trap and agro the Gigantoraptor to a trap and go to the nest without any problem !
Solo tame trick I’ve found..
Step 1: Trap parent near nest. Within 20ft I find is best
Step 2: Hide in nest
Step 3: Wait for baby to gesture to you Spin/BowFlap
Step 4: Copy it’s gesture for taming effectiveness
Bam now you’ve tamed a peacock enjoy :)
If you're bold and lucky like me, you don't need the eggs. Just a full ghillie suit
You can trap the adult “close” to the nest and tame the baby, on aberration at least. You have to let the parent come back to the nest after a set amount of emotes from the baby then you can retrap and continue.👌
I have a good trick syntac tought me.
1. Get a low level by trapping the parent with gates and then tame the baby.
2. Find a high level that your looking for.
3. Kill the parent.
4. Make sure YOUR gigaraptor is near.
5. Go up to the baby gigaraptor and imprint on it.
This works because the baby locks on to yours and thinks its their parent.
Hello all me and a friend closed the kkmenoff with signs then played with the baby
Throw down an egg to distract the parent. As it's eating, trap it with metal billboards, and you don't have to worry about the parent escaping. Thanks Syntac!
stay away from the FEET!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I learnt the hard way😓
Moschops eggs are very useful here, you get one dance out of each, would recommend taming moschops if u plan to get an early one
LISTEN THIS IS IMPORTANT
u don’t need fertilized eggs just trap the mom, don’t do it to far away.
Kill all the hostile creatures in the area ( don’t kill the mom).
If the mom is killed or to far away from the nest U CANT TAME THE BABY. THIS IS IMPORTANTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT
To easily tame a gigantoraptor
Make a lot of stone foundations and place it, lead the adult gigantoraptor in, so it can't attack you as you tame it's baby, now hide in it's nest and start having a dance battle with it's baby and you'll have a gigantoraptor for yourself
It can be spawned in the consle commands menu
I like it its a dinosaur but I don't like this 9ne
Anyone else find it weird how they can fit through a dino gateways when their head scrapes on the ceiling? I figured the devs would just be like NO MAKE IT NOT FIT SO PEOPLE WASTE MORE MATERIALS AND SPACE.
Use forcetame in admin commands
My god they are op...they might even be better then most dinos. When they are high lvl make sure to trap the adult instead of throwing eggs everywhere becouse it's a waste of eggs.the good thing about them is that they can glide and after u saddle up your first one you don't have to distract the gigantoraptor parent cos u can kill em and tame the baby when u use the baby radar
