Tips & Strategies

[MOBILE] I consider raptors a must have tame at early game. A decent level raptor will help you start clearing caves and a pack of them will allow you to delete bigger stronger predators. And, for as long as they don't pounce, taming them is a breeze.
You gonna need: 1 bola, 40 raw meat (a lvl 150 raptor needs just 26 to be tamed, that's being generous) 10 tranq arrows if using crossbow and 20 if using bow.
Get close enough for them to agro on you, start spinning your bola, throw it when they're close enough to be guaranteed hit. Shoot tranqs at them, AIM FOR THE HEAD, you'll save arrows and time.
After knocking them out, check they hunger stat, you wanna wait until it's less than half. Go do something useful and come back later. When it finally is below half, give them the raw and the taming meter will be full in seconds. Now just it home and love it.

How to tame a raptor early game and late game, as well as other tips and tricks.
Early game:
1. Have a bola and slingshot/club, you will need to be around level 9+.
2. Find a raptor, they usually spawn in beaches and forests with small creatures.
3. Go in front of it and wait till it runs after you, then bola it.
4. Start smacking it with a club, or personally humbling it with a slingshot.
5. Once itโs down then shove down around 20 meat in their throat, or more depending on its level.
6. Enjoy!!
Late/Mid game:
1. Have a bear trap or bola, with tranq arrows and a crossbow/bow.
2. Find a raptor (same areas)
3. Place a bear trap, and make it chase after you, and let it go to the bear trap. You can also use same bola technique as early game.
4. Tranq it out, but be careful since raptors have low health.
5. Shove around 20 prime meat or kibble down their throat, more or less depending on level.
6. Enjoy!
Some tips, tricks, and info.
The raptorโs strengths are speed and damage, however, they usually have low stamina and low health. They have a pinning ability that works on things like humans and smaller. When you tame a raptor, I recommend getting 3+ if you want to become unstoppable, they get a buff in packs. The highest level will always be the pack leader. These guys are unstoppable once you get a pack with good levels.
ATTENTION!: I heavily recommend being level 9+ and having 8+ bolas in hand. Be extremely careful using slingshot on high levels, as itโs likely to kill them.
Trap: Make a 2x2 wood foundation and walls, and keep a doorway without the door. Then add a wall over the door, and ramps the opposite way. Get the raptorโs attention and start running, then go out the door, and you can trap the raptors, however I would not recommend a trap unless youโre taming a pack of 3 or maybe more.
- They like parasaur kibble
- Their saddle is unlocked at level 18
- They are considered early game, so late or mid game players should tame stronger creatures.
