Make sure u guys have atleast 3 bolas if u want to tame them because there can be a pack or u might miss and I died cuz I miss once bolaed go BEHIND it I am telling u BEHIND it or else it will jump on u and eat u a tasty meal for him this happened to me too it jumped on my face and started eating my arm thankfull my dilos came and save me. Go BEHIND it and hit him with bat *bonk* shove meat in its throat while its eyes r still open(it's eyes stay open in mobile but idk about pc) and boom u got a raptor DON'T UNCLAIM IT NOW
WAIT A SEC STOP BEACH BOB STOPPP WAIT NOOOOOOO!
OH NO DON'T COME HERE NO U DON'T NOOO HELP HELP HE--
If your attempting the Argy pickup method of taming make sure you do not have a Dimorphodon on your shoulder. The Dimorphodon can attack and kill the raptor while it is in the Argy's claws.
I had just crafted a raptor Sattle so I put it on my level 6 raptor and whent off to find the volcano. On the way we got attacked buy a swarm of titanboas I got flung off my raptor (Rex) but the first one and managed to kill that one I turned around and helped Rex finish off the one he was working on but because of the venom I got knocked out right after me and Rex recked that snake. While I was snoozing Rex beat 7 more snakes before I woke up! Right when I woke up I saw Rex fall to the ground unconsius right when the 8th snake died I was left with 4 snakes to deal with by myself and barely managed without my pal Rex but after I killed the last one in total we had killed 14 titanbows. I highly recommend getting a raptor mine killed 9 titan boaws at level 6! (Ps sorry for horrible spelling, I’m talking about the big snakes when I say titianboaws just so you know)
Just bola it, use a good slingshot or a bow and use tranqs, if it's above level 174 to level 450 then I suggest using a small ramp trap and just bola it so you can get a few headshots and when its knocked, for low level raptors just use meat, but for high or max level raptors it's recommended using simple kibble or parasaur kibble, If your playing the Jurassic park expansion mod and taming velociraptors then I recommend using a taming pen with window frames as even a level 1 jp velociraptor can destroy a player even with full ascendant flak armor
Raptors are so easy to kill once you get metal items and guns even alphas
If you’re looking to tame a lot of these dudes at once, build a stone trap, get the attention of a bunch then lure them all into the trap and knock out and tame them all
Fast scary I saw some kill a bronto
(Following on from my sapphire dye)
Step 1 make a bow and 10-15 tranq arrows
Step 2 locate a raptor (I find them near the opposing land to herbivore island
Step 3 bola it kill the rest if in pack unless you want to tame them too
Step 4 feed it meat (preferably prime meat if you have it)
Step 5 enjoy your raptor
Check my sapphire dye giude on how to get started even if you don’t want sapphire dye
So if you have only 1 bolas you can escape or kill him and him is very easy for tame its will be my third dino good luck (so im russ and this can be a mistakes)
Dont bring a peterandon under the level of 75 to tame a raptor u will die😅😅
These guys are very violent, I advise you that when you see one of them, run to a neutral dinosaur close to you, because there will be a fight between the dinosaur and the raptor, giving you time to escape.
This is what I did when I was a noob and I did not want to die to a raptor turn back and don’t stop running and most importantly don’t look back in till you know your safe
If you’re gonna tame a raptor and you’re wondering what it’s level is get a spyglass first. and that will help you a ton it’s gender it’s level and what it looks like.
These things are op for me (a noob) so heres how I got it
1 can find raptors use mission/task hunt raptor it will take to an area full of them
2 bola them and knock them out using fist,traqs,slingshot (what I used)
3 feed kibble or meat the dododex will tell you
Also protect it from dying
And bam you have a raptor
I use ark mobile and I am a noob/new player so there may be better way that I don't know
What you have to do is find the raptor you want bola it and hit with fist or bat until unconscious (not from the front he can still hit you) when unconscious feed 10-30 meat of any kind. And boom you will rule the island.
Easily killable wih a sword so keep that in mind :)

Other tips:
Narcotics are made with narcoberries and rotten meat.
Raptors can pounce on raptors and smaller prey.
Raptors have an extremely fast attack speed.

Raptors get a pack bonus when there is more than 3 Raptors.
Annoying pest but once tamed then life gets good
Always expect a raptor to be in a pack so bring bring enough meat and bolas to get al least 3
