i saw an alpha one time and it killed 3 of my very high level raptors and the first raptor i ever bred and my 2 dodos. It had about 3500 health and was impossible to kill without raptors and i was only on level 38 please stay far away.

Plz don’t kill. TaMe It. They will have ur back.

In mobile, if you are struggling to find a high level, use the 'hunt raptor' pursuit to help locate where raptors are.

How to tame a raptor.

1. Get 2+ bolas for a pack or if you miss.

2. Find the raptors (this step is kind of hard. There always there when you don't want them to and they are not there when you want them!)

3.Pick the raptor closest to you (If there is a pack do this step, if there isn't ignore it.)

4. Try to get it's attention, but when it sees you and runs after you, stop. (If there is a pack, and you get to close they will come after you to.)

5. Wind up the bolas when it starts running after you and trap it.

6. Knock it out with fists or club.

7. Put meat,kibble, ect, but if there are more leave some over.

8: you may want to repeat steps or kill the other ones, they might try to kill the unconscious one.

9. Wait.

Congrats on taming a raptor! Hope this was helpful!

The raptor DOES fit through METAL and WOODEN door frames. But he DOES NOT fit through STONE door frames. Don't ask why, it is like that. I updated my trap from stone to metal and suddenly all the raptors can escape. 😂

Tame these early in the game! They are amazing to have.

I love this new update Dododex👌👌👌

Please add the dlc versions to mobile... please...

The first time I saw a raptor I was dead in the sand and I learned that you should always carry a bola

Only tame if u have the saddle

U can unlock it at level 18

Wanna kill one?

For scairdy noobs who have longneck rifles

Step 1: pullout longneck rifle as it does more damage than the fabricated sniper rifle

Step2: get it to notice you

Step3 :when it charges it runs in a straight line so shoot [has to be headshot for high levels]

Alpha's can't be tamed without mods

Be carefull new ark players these raptors will cling on you and kill you. It is most recommended to use a bola to knock out and tame this creature with raw mutton and primemeat

Super raptor plus I named my raptor that

To knock out or kill a raptor, let it see you. Then start running in circles around the raptor and keep hitting it. It worked for me so it can work for you!

To tame this boi is actually very easy if your prepared

Recommended items: tranq arrows,bow,bola,club,meat,prime meat, narcotics,spike walls ( to defend him )

Step 1: make bolas

Step 2: look for a raptor( that is separated from a pack)

Step 3: get his attention and use the bola on him

Step 4: now knock him out with a slingshot,tranq arrows or club

Step 5: defend him with spike walls

Step 6: feed him narcotics and meat ( prime meat recommended)

Step 7: now you have an early game murdering machine

Encountering and taming

When you encounter a raptor unprepared you should immediately leave the area. Come back when you have these five things, multiple bolas (incase you miss or there is a pack), a ranged weapon that has some form of tranq ammo (slingshot, bow, crossbow, or a long neck rifle), tranq ammo, narcotics, and taming food. Once you have all of these things go back to the area where you found the raptor, once you find the raptor again, bola it. Once it bolad shoot it in the head with your tranq ammo, once it is knocked out wait, this is called starving, make sure it doesn't wake up by feeding it narcotics. Once you are done starving it put food in it's inventory, it will now eat until it is tamed. Also make sure nothing damages it this will ruin it's taming effectiveness meaning that it will lose some of the levels gained.

Good job, you have tamed your raptor. If you haven't brought a saddle for it, it can be learned at level 18, and can we crafted anywhere. Their primary attack is a slash and bite simultaneously, and their secondary attack is their pounce attack which works the same as it does with wild rapters.

I hope this was helpful, happy taming

Good early game tame, a few bolas and a bow and some tranq arrows or even a slingshot and some rocks is enough. Just bola and knock it out, and get a few. They can kill many things you encounter early game and are helpful for collecting hide and meat. Also really fun to get 20+ Of and attack things with.

Thats a annoying creature but there are a easy way to tame it! Even with sling shot

1-get 10 bolas wih you also if you are using tranq arrows then get 3 5bolas

2-bola it and start hitting him

3-make sure if 8 second passed then use another bola.

4-once get knocked down get some narcotics and make it unconscious till the hunger bar of it goes half

Taming foods of a raptor is - rawmeat prime etc and parsaur kibble and bam you have a new raptor:)

Stay far away stand on a rock if possible
