To day ( march 30 2020 a ten year old on ark level 59 with her tapjara level 28.)Killed a alpha raptor level 4 with 36000 hp, she was so glad because it killed her level 70 raptor, (on the island in the footpaw( the ten year old was me btw) (tapjara name is redwood we love goIng to the redwoods plus her colors are like the redwoods(no one died btw just two raptors)

Get it’s attention by shooting it with a bow and stone arrow. Next, as it is charging at you, pull out a bola and when it gets close, bola it. Then, hit it with tranq arrows. (3-7) Finally, the easy way to take it is narcroberries and raw meat.

Use a bola and hit it with a club

The Raptor isn't completely useless compared to the Deinonychus, even though it has lower base speed, it gets 3% speed per level compared to the Deino's 1%. Max it's speed and set it on aggressive to pin players! (Imprint too if possible, it needs the bonus HP and speed)

Bola then hit from the side with a club.

This cannot be screwed up unless you walk into its face.

Get a bola and use it on the raptor and knock it out with club and raptors are great for beginners because you unlock bola at lvl7 and club at lvl2

If you are go to tame a raptor at night, make a distance because they will attack suddenly so, make a distance to dodge his attack and go to a perfect place to tame a raptor.

how to tame a raptor for beginners!

step 1:craft a few bolas(about 3) in case u miss or there is a pack

step 2:stand on a high rock (make sure the raptor can’t climb up)

step 3:throw the bola

step 4:shoot with tranq arrow+bow/crossbow

step 5:feed it raw meat or kibble(recommended for higher lvls)

kibbles:simple or parasaur kibble

step 6: get a raptor saddle and u have a beast now:)

WARNINGS: the raptor is very fast and can pounce on u

u might need bio toxin/narcotics/narco berry if higher lvl

hope my tip is helpful ☝️ so the noobs can see!😁

These bois are amazing at caving. I was lvl 20 and went through a whole hoarde of spiders snakes and scorpions

Here is a tip for efficiently dealing with raptors on foot.

You need:

1x Bow

3x Bolas (for a pack)

15x arrows

While the raptor charges towards you throw the bola at it. While it's immobilized pull your bow to about a quarter way, as this will shoot faster than pulling to full. Spam the quarter way strategy for really fast arrows? This should shred through most raptors.

This also works for other creatures!

I hope this helped!

Update on titan Mace, toast, and waylona, toast died and I got two new raptors . A level 40 named ash and toast the second, all of them except ash died fighting a bronto including my Parasaur (goat ) and dodo (Bowie ) now me and ash are doing photography invertebrates

You can tame this early game at lowly level 8 using bola

If your low level and get attacked by a raptor, craft a spear and go underwater and stab it while swimming away

Your certificate you got from band camp will not help you

bola it then go to its butt and whack it with a club. use those dodos to your left and boom you got a raptor. tamed a lvl 174 tek raptor like this i think you can handle it

I am having a very hard time taming a Raptor right now because when I bolla it as soon as I hit or shoot it it escapes the bola and attacks me normally killing me even when it has ten bolas around it’s legs so The only way I am able to tame it is by standing on rocks and shooting at it from there . I am playing on an island by myself at the easy level if that helps.

You can also Just bow It with the narcodic Arrow

Tame 3 raptors using bolas and tranq arrows. They will shred pretty much everything

Got lucky and found 2 lvl 150 male and female after 3 days..rlly easy to breed and get them to be a killing machine 😀

Can someone tell me what the cuddling means on the baby raptors?!!!!
