Tips & Strategies
How to tame a raptor early game and late game, as well as other tips and tricks.
Early game:
1. Have a bola and slingshot/club, you will need to be around level 9+.
2. Find a raptor, they usually spawn in beaches and forests with small creatures.
3. Go in front of it and wait till it runs after you, then bola it.
4. Start smacking it with a club, or personally humbling it with a slingshot.
5. Once it’s down then shove down around 20 meat in their throat, or more depending on its level.
6. Enjoy!!
Late/Mid game:
1. Have a bear trap or bola, with tranq arrows and a crossbow/bow.
2. Find a raptor (same areas)
3. Place a bear trap, and make it chase after you, and let it go to the bear trap. You can also use same bola technique as early game.
4. Tranq it out, but be careful since raptors have low health.
5. Shove around 20 prime meat or kibble down their throat, more or less depending on level.
6. Enjoy!
Some tips, tricks, and info.
The raptor’s strengths are speed and damage, however, they usually have low stamina and low health. They have a pinning ability that works on things like humans and smaller. When you tame a raptor, I recommend getting 3+ if you want to become unstoppable, they get a buff in packs. The highest level will always be the pack leader. These guys are unstoppable once you get a pack with good levels.
ATTENTION!: I heavily recommend being level 9+ and having 8+ bolas in hand. Be extremely careful using slingshot on high levels, as it’s likely to kill them.
Trap: Make a 2x2 wood foundation and walls, and keep a doorway without the door. Then add a wall over the door, and ramps the opposite way. Get the raptor’s attention and start running, then go out the door, and you can trap the raptors, however I would not recommend a trap unless you’re taming a pack of 3 or maybe more.
- They like parasaur kibble
- Their saddle is unlocked at level 18
- They are considered early game, so late or mid game players should tame stronger creatures.

These guys are stupid annoying late game, they’re just like rats.
—TIP TIME—
PASSIVE, AGGRESSIVE, OR NEUTRAL?
If you have ever set foot on the Island, you should know that these guys have zero chill. They will attack everything and anything in sight, no matter the size(you’ll often see one raptor challenge a rex). So STAY AWAY if you are a low level and don’t want to get cooked.
TAMING
These guys are relatively easy to tame, only needing a bola and some tranq arrows, or possibly a club if it’s a low enough level. Torpor is alright, I didn’t find myself shoving narcotics down its throat when I tamed it. Put some meat in their inventory(or some prime meat, but I wouldn’t waste any on a raptor) and viola! You got yourself a raptor!
USES
These guys are FAST. Like, very fast. But, with yin comes yang, their weight is horrible. I find myself constantly upgrading weight to get this fat dino to move at a speed more than 0.1 mph. They are strong, with fast attacks, AND they have a very OP attack that pins down smaller creatures and dismounts riders! When they are pinned, constant attacks will cause you to rip their insides out while they are on the floor! So fun :). To do this attack on mobile, swipe down on the left hand side of the screen. These guys are VERY good early game tames, with their saddle unlocking at only LEVEL 18 :o
Anyway, hope this tutorial helps!
Peace out,
