How ARK players tame and knock out the Gigantoraptor: what to feed it, what to knock it out with, and how to keep it safe.

I’ve tamed 4 of these now and every time I’ve trapped the parent

You don't need ghillie! Just one fertilized egg! (I used bronto)

Step 1: Drop the egg and wait for the parent to start eating.

Step 2: Sneak into the nest (ideally giving the parent a wide berth) and play one game with the baby.

Step 3: Hop out of the nest and…

Nobody knows how to tame this because it isn't released yet. Yet encountered, it may act similar to Raptors and Reapers, though may gain speed over charging. Have any questions? You may look it up on the D.D.D Website on Fandom, or wait for the Wiki Page. Have comments?…

I have an actually overpowered way to tame these guys:

1. Make sure you have a cryopod or argy

2. Get a lot of stone doorframes and a stone ramp

3. Find a Gigantoraptor

4. Build a trap with the previous stone stuff

5. Aggro the Gigantoraptor parent into the trap

6. Do…

What i recommend for you to do if for a taming one of these bad boys is atleast have one piece of a ghillie suit and fertilized eggs im not entirely sure if this is what activates the mini game for the gigiantraptor if you did all these steps the nest may very be glitched but…

Me and a friend of mine find it helps to have a Ghillie suit while hiding in the nest and the mother won’t see you unless you stop hiding.

Passive tame- Trapping parent with metal signs and 1 feet egg makes timing easy. Hide in nest wait for mini game unhide and hide again.. boom taming complete within 10minutes

The parent must be alive to tame the baby, you can distract the parent with eggs or a tribe mate but the best method by far is to trap it close to the nest (4 metal billboards do the trick)

Once trapped, hide in the nest and wait for the baby to approach. This will start a…

Have a friend hold onto it with a bug while your friend chills in the nest easy tame

Grab the mother with a bug. Keep her agro'd. Someone else sneaks into the nest and tames the baby when quoed

Set a trap with 4 Dino gates and put the adult in the trap then proceed to jump in the nest and then just match the dances

I found a nest and had proceeded to trap the mother in a simple trap and proceeded to do the minigame with the baby. I then had my argie take the baby back to my base.

Use fertilized egg (my tribe use argy eggs) to lure parent into a bill board trap. Then imprint on the baby with no worries

You don’t need eggs you just need a friend to take the adult away long enough for you to hop in the nest. In order for the mini game to be triggered the baby needs to path back into the nest and become startled. The adult has to be near the nest and no longer agro’d in…

Hmm a new Dino? Cool! Pretty sure it’s on rag

Btw I’m pretty sure I’m the second tip!!

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.

It’s broken say in nest an hour while needing parent no interaction from baby at all

To tame, you need ghille armor. And you will need fertilized eggs to drop around the nest, i personally have used stego eggs. These eggs will distract the parent and keep in mind that the larger the eggs used, the longer the parent will stay distracted. While the parent is…

Super easy to tame. Build a dino gate trap about 30-50m from the nest and lure the mom in. PvP you can just pick the mom and drop her in the trap with a Rhynio.

Once the mom is secured, hide in the center of the nest and mimic the baby's dance moves (spin, bow, or…
