Tips & Strategies

My dilophosauras wont attack it, and so does the raptor. I really want my dilo back but it keeps going near a raptor.
The reason why the dilo is even there is because, when I had a parasaur and a dilo, I found a raptor in the middle of taming the said parasaur and balo'd it but the dilo killed the raptor before I can knock it out with a club (I didn't have a tranq arrow at the time) so I decided to look for a raptor, and found a pack, but it looked like 2 at first and I had 3 balos, so I thrown one at one raptor and missed, and tried again and hit, and missed with the other raptor, another raptor came in and fought me, My parasaur was fighting the raptors for a long time while dilo is just sitting there like "wait, those are my friends!"
Altho I'm not sure because I died before that so..
I tried to get my loot back over and over and I died to everything on the way, EVERY FREAKING THING!
Later when the loot prob despawned I saw my dilo, still alive and I was shocked, and thought to myself, how did they survive that many raptors?
But then I found another raptor and got killed by it and I didn't see it attacking the raptor..
Yeah that's how dangerous these guys are in early game when you are heavily unprepared or have too little guard dogs.
If I had a gravestone for every tamed animal and homo saipens dead, I'd fit 69 sextillion things.
That's how unfamiliar I am at ark in pc.
More Raptor Encountering Tips
Best way to combat these guys is if you have a bola and torch. Bola stops them from moving a torch burns them. If you don’t have a bola a torch can still do some good by itself until you get a bow and arrow or a tame that can fight them easy aka a triceratops or carb or another raptor if you manage to tame one. Remember raptors are pack creatures so….. if you see one there are always more in the area
These are Arks thugs .. they don't care what you are doing whether it be minding your business or if your just looking to pet a dodo. They will come and they will kill you and your dodo.. Run as far as possible swim as far .carry a bola on you so you trap your friend and escape . @chief3alpha xbox
Can I kill a level 10 ALPHA raptor? One bronto, 3 parasaurs, 3 carbos, 2 raptors and two baby raptors, 3 ptéranodons, and 2 trikes! Please respond cause he’s getting closer.
Noob :look it’s dilo !
Raptor : huh
Noob : it has legs that could kick the athlete
Raptor : ?
Noob : dilo may I tame you ? *punch*
Raptor : you chose death ?
I’m on console and so far I have tamed a carno, baryonx,bronto and a peranadon(I’m a nub) but I have not seen any raptors anywhere! Arrow up if you think I should travel west
In a recent PC (and very soon to console) update these little jerks can now pounce on you...and they WILL. Every. Damn. Time. They knock you off mounts and on you to the ground while they gnaw on your bones...mocking you. They’ve knocked me off an argy and therozinos several times. They’re much more deadly now. PS...alpha raptors ALSO do this.
Raptors killed my level 29 para named Birdy Bird (dont Ask Why it’s name is birdy bird). I had to abandon Birdy bird! One like for R.I.P Birdy Bird :(
This is how to beat a alpha raptor…
1. Find a alpha raptor
2. Get it’s attention on you and aggro it
3. Go to an area with a lot of herbivores and hide underneath a diplo and bronto if you can’t find a large pack of trikes or stegos
4.go to a high rock and see the raptor getting beated
5. If the raptor kills the Dino’s get out a shotgun and some of the ammo or get a crossbow with tranq arrows and shoot the alpha raptor
6. Make sure that you skin the alpha to get a lot of prime meat
7. Use that prime meat to tame more raptors
8. Get a raptor squad and go on a hunt for alpha raptors once in a while
9. Breed your squad to get lots of baby raptors
10. Get the left over prime meat or meat and make sure to feed the baby raptors
11. Enjoy!
Can you maybe like this comment? I wrote for a while correcting my GRAMMeR for yall
If One is following you and you are not prepaired hide behind a larhe herbivore like a trike. The raptor will accidently hit it and they will fight to the death. Run while the battle is still hapening. Hope this helped. Up for noobs who have never seen a raptor
If you encounter an alpha raptor while riding a weak tame and it attacks you. go swimming under water and get out of its range I saved my raptor (lvl 20) like this.
