Don't worry about trying to trap the parent.

Just put down a foundation and four walls, and throw your eggs in the middle. If you have the mats, make a bigger box with higher walls, and throw the eggs in different places throughout. The parent will aggro on the eggs but struggle to reach them, which will buy you more time.

I trapped two parents of two different nests with one trap using this method and tamed both babies without aggroing the parents.

Bonus tip: if your eggs hatch, the parents will relentlessly attempt to kill whatever has hatched.

Steps to tame on officials:

1) use bug and have partner

2)find nest you want

3)bug driver eats everything around then picks and holds parent the whole time facing away from nest but not too far from it

4)partner gets in the nest

5)partner tames baby then cryopods it

6)eat parent as they dont ever spawn another baby in nest

7)fly off into the distance happy as can be.

Congrats! Your first Gigantoraptor! And even got to save on eggs.

While raising: feed meat.

Seems to be timed like an allo. Give or take 30mins. Good Luck!

You will need to sneak into the nest while the mother is alive and not aggro’d, the intended way to do this is with fertilised eggs as a distraction. Ghillie recommended. Once you are hidden in the nest the baby will approach and perform actions, this is a quick time event where you need to mimick those actions with ASD keys. Correct mimicry will fill the babies taming bar.

Bring cryopods or something that can carry the baby away like a rhynio so that you and the baby can bounce once the game is successful to avoid the now childless mother

Taming:

Take plenty of fertilised eggs.

Drop egg away from the nest, not too far or the parent wont go to it, not too close or the parent will aggro you while taming.

When parent goes to the egg, walk to nest (dont run) select option to hide in nest and wait for baby to come to you.

Mimic the emote the baby uses from the 3 emotes available.

repeat until baby is tamed.

Dont move out of render distance if aggrod or tame progress will be lost.

First step, throw a fert. egg and distract the mother.

Second Step, sneak to the nest and press the hide button.

Third step, wait for the baby to approach and interact with you, mimic it and get the taming.

Fourth step, repeat it till it reaches 100% and go with it.

Beside that you can put only babies with same or lower level then the Gigantoraptor himself, they will feed from his inventory while they are still baby, so don’t need anymore handfeeding. And it seems that there is a size cap too, gigas don’t work.

As extra you can refresh imprinting of your babies with his special move and detect babies and wild babies.

Use fert eggs to agro the parent away, or use argy to kite them off a ledge, do not attack or kill parent as this will terminate the tame. After parent is away from nest, hide in nest by walking up and press indicated button, once hidden in nest, the baby will walk up to you and either Spin, Bow, or Flap, you must copy the dance by pressing the corresponding keys/buttons.

You can pretty easily tame a low level one early on. I used one fertilized trike egg and a sarco for tanking some hits from the adult gigantoraptor. Don't even need ghillie.

Clean up foliage near and under the nest, then place the fertilized egg on the ground away from the nest. Wait for the parent to walk towards the egg and then jump in the nest. Do one round of the minigame with the baby gigantoraptor, then get out of the nest and run to pickup the fertilized egg from the ground before the adult gigantoraptor devours it.

If you get aggro run to and mount your tame that you parked on passive to the side. The adult gigantoraptor will soon get bored and return to the nest. Now you can repeat the same process until you have tamed the baby gigantoraptor and pick up the fertilized egg one last time and hatch it if you'd like.

You’re gonna need a bunch of fertilized eggs for a high level one. The higher the level of the Gigantoraptor, the quicker it munches through your precious fertilized eggs. I was only able to get one interaction per giganoto egg, and on 1x, the bar goes up ~2.8% every interaction on a level 150.

On a level 20 g-raptor, I was able to get 3 interactions off per egg, and it went up ~11% every time on 1x.

If you’re on 1x taming, prepare to need 35+ giga eggs for a level 150.

You do need fertilized eggs.I tested it, it didn’t care at all about the eggs that aren’t fertilized.And I’m pretty sure you can’t use a trap because I tested that as well and the baby was frozen.BUT the trap was kinda far away from the baby so if you put it really close to the nest it might work.

To tame this you got to get the Baby and follow These steps:

1. Take a Giga or Carcha Egg with you

2. Find a Giganto Nest

3. Drop the egg you have a Bit far away from the nest. The giganto will See and eat it

4. Hurry and sneak into the Nest, wait for Baby to join in

5. Press the correct button(s) and soon it is tamed

6. Pod it and thats it
