Taming & KO Tips
How do I tame a gigantoraptor? Tips and strategies on taming and knocking out a gigantoraptor.
Just sneak into the nest. Eggs aren’t necessary. Also must allow the parent to be free to come back and touch the nest. Then imprint on the little baby darling 🤣
I have found that placing several fertilized eggs close to the nest before you start the taming process works best. I have also found that ghillie is not needed when taming!
How to tame:
1. Get large feet eggs, Brontos, Gigas and Carcha works best
2. Find a nest
3. Throw an egg far from nest, but in range of parent
4. While parent is busy eating, get close to nest, crouch and press E to hide in nest
5. Wait for baby to come by and do a dance, use A/S/D to copy baby movements
6. Repeat
Extra tip: a trap can be used to trap the parent, but be aware it needs to be in range of the nest!
To tame:
- Give eggs to mother Gigantoraptor to distract her
- Sneak into nest
- Repeat baby emotes to earn trust
- Run for your life
Use Cases:
- Incubate eggs
- Baby feeding (like Maewing)
- Run around 🤣
They share spawns with therezinos, if you don't find one, mass murder theries
READ THE WHOLE THING IF YOU WANT TO TAME A GIGANTORAPTOR please. So I did an oopsy by not whereing ghile but have no fear just make a stone box about 2x2 one door frame and two walls up just in case and make the ramp walk by the mom she will get angry then run into the trap she follow them leav through yo doorway place wood spike walls on the out side of it and get rid of the ramp now mommy is safley traped so you can kidnap her baby.
Don’t kill its parents to imprint the baby the baby will be frozen and can not be imprinted
Theis Eggs make superior kibble.
I can’t wait for ASA it’s shaping up to be pretty epic!!
Quick easy tame after having a gigantoraptor kill parent and use the gigantoraptor to claim don't gain as many levels but for quick females for breeding is great technique
Trapping the parent, or surrounding the nest with walls, no longer works. The parent MUST have access to the nest.
1 locate the Dino
2 drop a large egg *at moment thunk just fert*
3 wait for mother to go over to egg
4 go over to nest and jump in
5 repeat and mock what emote the baby dose
6 run with baby *or cryo pod it*
Step 1: sneak in nest
Step 2: hide in nest
Step 3: play with baby
Step 4: raise baby
Step 5: enjoy
To tame this dino, you need to entretain the father or mother with a rex or giganoto egg fertilized and enter in the nest and play with the baby..
Drop egg a short distance from the nest to distract the parent then hide inside the nest the baby will approach you and do one of three dances you have to match the dance emote to start the taming
So first of all this tame is much easier with two people. First thing to do is get the parent away from the nest/baby with fert eggs we used giga eggs and once you do have the second person stand on top of it with a Rhynio or anything like that to get it stuck. Once the second person is standing on it you go into the nest and tame the baby. Make sure the baby stays away from the parent because if they get to close the parents will agro. Lastly if the parent agros the only way to get it to stop and keep it away from the nest is to knock it out and let it wake up again otherwise you will have to go in and out of render until they de agro
You just survive the mother, don’t kill her. And then do emotes to the baby in the nest (sounds crazy but yes this is for real) to raise taming effectiveness. Currently we are attempting to trap the mother close by to then attempt the passive emote taming
I hope the osd taming method gets added it’s my favorite part
Laid out one egg then flew near the nest and waited for parent to go. Snuck into nest and hid. Did all the moves. When parent had finish the egg I just stayed still and carried on with imprinting baby. Got lvl 70 and after tame lvl 94. I'm must've been lucky parent didn't chase me. Wore ascendeded Ghillie and riot Armour.
For everyone trying to tame one without eggs you need to tame one at night in full ghille. If you try during the day the parent will see you in the nest
