What are tips for raptor? Tips and strategies for raptor in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
If ya encounter a raptor just tame it with a bola meat and a saddle you need 110 hide
GET BOLAS TO TAME A RAPTOR OR YOU WILL DIE IN 2 SECONDS
Throw a bola at it, and then attack it from behind. Recommended weapons:
Sword
Pike
Metal Hatchet
and Bow
I recommend taming one of these because they are one of the best early game tames. Here’s a tutorial.
First, I will show what you need.
Tranq arrows x8 (it only takes one head shot but bring a few in case you misfire or there’s a pack)
Bola x6 (in case you miss or if there’s a pack)
Raw Meat x15
And that is all you need.
Now actually taming one.
The way I usually tame them is by starting the Hunt: Raptor pursuit because the location of the nearest raptor shows on the Map when you start the pursuit.
So now the encounter. Encounter with caution. When it charges at you, ready your bola and….. THROW! If there are multiple be ready to throw another one.
Now shoot a tranq arrow at the raptor’s head and wait 4 seconds. Then it will pass out.
Now, put meat in it’s inventory, wait for it to tame, and BOOM! You have a raptor.
(Side note. If you want to get a saddle for it you need fiber, wood, and hide. Fiber is collected from bushes, wood is collected from trees, surprise right? And you can use your new raptor to kill some trikes, dilos, turtles, moschops, dodos, or any other animal that is easy to kill. Then when you kill enough get the hide from the raptors inventory and then make the saddle.)
(Shorter side note, The raptor has a fast attack. On mobile, if you jump and then swipe down on top of a Dino, you will jump on top of it and the Dino won’t be able to move. You can still attack it. This even works on other raptors!)
Have fun with your new raptor!
This is pretty easy to tame I just watched a few videos and tamed one
One day I was thinking if I should get a pet raptor so I found one and knock it out gave it meat and a few days later I name it racy
Just to let y’all know, if when imprinting it asks for hand fed saw basic or superior kibble, if it asks for a kibble that you don’t have but you have better kibble, it will still work (My example) my megalosaurus asked for basic, I only have extraordinary always on hand, it still worked just fine, just a little thing I thought I should say, 👍🏻 If this helped you -Wolfa191
when exploring always bring a fast mount with decent stamina at the time Iguanadon cause in gadropedal form they wast no stamina and are very fst
Like, these frickin Raptors are always in packs. I tried to tame my tame one but it had a buddy and destroyed my raft
On mobile parasaur kibble instantly tames it.
If the raptor is a high level get tranc arrows and shoot it from above👍
👍👍👍
Get more than one bola, some bait (dodo) , and at least 20 stones for your slingshot or 10 tranq arrows on a regular bow. -RealWatch1
Good
Should Say How Long It Takes With Like x5 Taming And Stuff
Get a bola and tranq arrows and a crossbow
Ngl when encountering a sarco in the water it’s kinda scary bc how and how fast it swims
