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

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

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

This is the fastest, and cheapest way of taming a raptor (although it is kind of risky):

1)Find one raptor all on its own. (you can try to tame multiple at once if you feel like a badass)

2)Shoot a rock at it and make it aggro on you.

3)Bola it while it's running straight at you.

4)Once you did that, go behind it and punch it's butt with a club or shoot stones at it's face.

5)Feed some meat and narcs.

They are an extremely useful tame for early game and this metod is very good for when you don't want to level up to get it's saddle. You can use them to get quick meat or as your personal body guard.

To be honest, just always have multiple bolas on you if possible and these guys shouldn’t be to much of an issue.

Find a group of raptor. Bola all of it and use spear and kill the lowest level raptors and make sure the raptors are bola safe. Bola it like 3 or 2 times. If u have tranq arrows it will probably take 2 to 4. It depends on how high the lvl is. Make sure no stupid thing interrupts your taming.

The easiest way to tame a Raptor is to bolo it and keep tranqing it every 4 seconds throw a bolo they brake out of them easily

Here’s a tip. Wait til’ you have either a slingshot and bola or bow with tranqs to tame this Dino

These things are beasts, and relatively easy to tame too. Just a small pack of around 2-4 can take on a medium-high level carno, have decent hp, make for a fast mount, have a pounce attack that works on most things smaller than it, and also a pack buff. Also will slow spoil timers for meat in their inventory, and all this is before considering imprinting or stat mutations.

There is a bug or a feature in mobile maybe in pc ok let me explain 🤔when u tame a Dino there food bar will empty because if u tame them after sleeping 😴 and u immediately after 3-4 minutes u knock them unconscious boom their food bar will be empty tip try to hit half torpor at night and use any bed to sleep and after that knock them there food metre will be empty 👁👄👁 work on any Dino try it on dodo first for understanding

Make a army and rule the world!

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

My most hated creature in ark is easily this guy. Encountering these dudes at the lower levels almost means immediate death

I’ve noticed that a traqr arrow knocks it out like 2 seconds. You only need one for a level up to 19 I think.

LITERALLY THE MOST ANNOYING CREATURE!!! SERIOUSLY KILLED MY NEARLY TAMED REX!!!

So i was in west zone 2 with my pteranodon and I spot a lvl 105 raptor on its own so I am like “why not tame one” so I go back to base and get everything i need to tame it and then I go back to west zone 2 for the raptor I tried to lead it to a safer area by attacking it with my pteranodon but when I was leading the raptor it aggravated on a lvl 100 something carbonemys and they fighted in the water and the carbonemys had 2 times it’s health but the raptor actually won and made it out alive with over half its health

This explains just how tough these guys are

Thank you for your time

Super raptor plus I named my raptor that

just seen a tek raptor!!! cant believe it. i cant find any info about it
