What are tips for raptor? Tips and strategies for raptor in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
What ever you do at a low level never go for an alpha raptor they are stronger than Rex and potentially spinosaur I tried and I learned not to do it I’m saying it as a tip to new players
I’ve wanted to tame one for along time. There was one on the other side of the island but I was to scared to go. But then it randomly popped up on my island after I woke up and I summoned up all my courage to throw a bola at it. I then shot some tranq arrows (about 4 with a bow) and I grabbed a soothing balm and gave it some meat and it was a instant tame. I got a saddle for it and I named him (well it’s a her) smokescreen because of his gray color.
I'm tamed a raptor with fist because ilocked him in my house
I found a 220 level raptor and throw a bola on it then i use crossbow and traq arrows to knock it it take 5 arrow then i feed it parasaurus kibble and due to tamming efficiency it become level 322 its really very strong.
Very aggressive attacts humans and other animals
Bring at least 14 tranq darts. You might miss often. Aim mostly at the body of the raptor or the head. Bring at least 12+ meat for the tame. Get on a high rock and wait. Try to get the raptor to notice you. Then shoot. Easy make sure the raptor cannot get on the rock
Big Dinos around your base? Lure them away with this guy.
Whenever u are anywhere carry bolas... U find a player bola... Raptor, bola...
Hmm… Raptors can’t damage wood. Raptors are small. If you want, plop a wooden cage on them to immobilize them for extra long periods of time. Sometimes it’s hard to shoot them in the cage, but most the time their head pokes out. Super easy in my opinion, plus the cages are always able to be picked up. I know this works on Nintendo Switch, I think it works on PC(not sure though). This is for ASE, not ASA.
RAPTORS ARE A.N.N.O.Y.I.N.G
For huge noobs like me you might find a raptor.Then the raptor notices you.Then it attacks you.Then you try to tame it.Then it attacks you.Your weapon breaks.Then it puts its big fat body on you.then it rips your head off.That’s what always happens to me! Look this is a story of me spawning in a area:
Me:*clicks random location button*
Me:*following the guide.*
Me:*sees a huge pack of raptors just after making pickaxe*
Raptors:*Notice me*
Alpha Raptor:”WE ARE GOING TO SHOVE YOUR BUTT IN OUR MOUTHS.”
Me:why do I exist in ark
1 Like=1 Respect For Noobs (Like Me)
feed it parasaur kibble it tames so quick here is the instuctions on how to make it: 1 parasaur egg, 1 cooked meat, 2 rockarrots, 2 mejoberries, 3 fiber, a full waterskin and a cooking pot. cook it and craft bola, find raptor (you can figure that out) bola it quick, hit it VERY quick it escapes fast then put kibble in inventory, and BAM! you got raptor! Hope this is helpful!
This little prick a** bum snuck up behind me and popped a cap in my a** So they I respawned and went back over only to find out that this b**** was guarding my stuff trying to be an alpha over here only lvl 2
If you’re a beginner,
Like me.
Tame four Raptors and you can kill almost anything,
So you could go on long voyages without worrying too much.
No Rex’s or Alpha anything, and you should be fine.
just be careful, and make sure to check their health after a possible close call,
I made that mistake once,
Regretted it.
Also I recommend tranq arrows instead of bola, but I might be using the bola wrong,
So don’t take my word for it.
Though I will mention, Raptors cannot hold that much weight.
unless you tame something that can keep up with the rappers and hold a bit of weight,
(Maybe a Parasaur,
but I haven’t tamed one yet.)
Pack light, and don’t intend on taking too much home.
Here’s how to tame a Raptor, it’s very easy! Also, I did how to defeat an Alpha Raptor, you can check it out! Ok, here it is:
First of all, bring some bolas, nothing wrong with bringing more in case you miss or there’s a pack!
Secondly, bring 30-50 raw meat, never tried it with raw prime meat, though.
Also don’t forget the narcotics, you can bring a club, or if you wanna shoot from a distance, bring a bow or crossbow, with some stone arrows, of course! You can hit it with your fists from the back, too.
When you’re ready, go to an area where raptors are located, I have some suggestions, like, Carno Island, or the shores of Cragg’s Island, Cragg’s Island is where my base is in ark mobile, and I usually find a lot of raptors there, also there’s some carnotosaurus, but they’ll eventually stop spawning if you build something there. Nevertheless, when you find a Raptor, bola it, then knock it out with whatever weapon you have, or punch it with your fists in the back, you can bola it, even when it’s still stuck because of the bola on it to reset the bola timer. When it’s knocked out, put the meat in its inventory, and… when it is tamed… congrats! You now have a Raptor! Raptors are very easy creatures to tame! I’m sorry if this was long and took so long to read, but I hope it helped at least a little bit! Good luck!—Pablo(Also, about the “Defeating an Alpha Raptor” tip, yes, you will find my name there).
So once I had 2 dilos and I named one Spitty and the other OP
So I was going out to the beach when a raptor attacked me and I was able to knock it out but spotty and OP died in the progress, but I got a buetiful powerful raptor.
1 like = 1 like to Spitty and OP
If your a low level you’re going to get mauled by this guy he legit jumps you and there’s nothing you can do other than watch yourself die
The Raptor is a creature that can stick with you for a long time. They are still useful even when far into late game, their pounce ability can subdue even the most bloodthirsty of raiders as they watch helplessly as your raptor uses them as a chew toy. A solid addition to anyone’s stable.
