What are tips for raptor? Tips and strategies for raptor in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
We all have to agree this was the hardest tame early game
1:get a decent amount narcos and bolas if you miss or a pack 2:hit them once then bola aim for the head 3:then put raw meat prime or mutton is recommended but if dont have prime or mutton raw meat will do put narcotics in to keep it asleep 4:you have raptor.
Here is a quick thing to tell how many tranq and stuff u would need for a lvl 1 to a 150
Lvl 1:literally 10 or something slingshots not worth it lol
Lvl 30 if ur on easy mode then it's good can be tamed with 10 or so pieces of meat and 5 tranq i think
80:pretty decent to tame to get a better one needs a good amount of meat and tranq arrows
Lvl 150:ove not tamed one myself yet but if i could guess it requires a stack of meat and 20 or so tranq
Also when ur taking ANYTHING remember to put spikes sprout them raptors and dilos can easily remove all the taking effectiveness
I’ve recently encountered a white raptor roaming around Winters Mouth region. It has a white cloud around it and I fear it’s similar to an alpha Raptor. If it can be tamed I’d love to have it on my team but if not, how do I kill it?
Taming a raptor isn't that hard. All I did to tame one was whack it with a club, after it killed my dilo. I did lose a dilo, but I got myself a new raptor that 8 still haven't named.
If you are a noob like me and want to kill them, I recommend luring it into water with a raft especially the alpha raptor because they are slower in water and you can hit them with a bow. QUICK TIP: Don’t think you can take on an alpha raptor on land; I learned quite painfully that you can’t kill a raptor that you can’t outrun that has over 3,000 lives.
It says to tame a raptor you must have types of kibble or raw prime meat. However, i used a wooden club in attempt to kill a raptor and realized I had some meat in my inventory. I used a soothing balm and about 15 meat and it only took the balm and 3 meat to tame.
I found 8 in 1 place I’m sooo “lucky”
bola it and shoot it with arorws
Watch out if you're playing on Aberration, they love to pounce on you if you bola them to close (4-10').
Exploit its greatest weakness: gymnastics. Dumbfounded by your incredible acrobatic skills, it will stand in one place and let you kick it through a window into oblivion. I saw it in a movie once.
Easiest way I find taming them is by having two people for one raptor one lures the other bolas it then both trank it out or beat it with your clubs.
To tame them I would recommend a crossbow but a bow will do for a level 6 or under they are very good tames but as soon as you tame them u NEED TO LEAVE. If there is a raptor there is a good chance that there will be a alpha raptor. But otherwise good tames! Just hard to get.
I swear stay away from these insane beasts I saw three (a level 11 a level 15and a level) take out a frickin level 32 Rex all by theme selves stay away for your own good.
The live in forests use a bola too tame it use raw meat they can pounce quickly paralyzingly you they are strong and hunt in groups
1- grab a bunch of bolas and trancs
2- find raptor
3- use bola and tranqs
4- tame
If you are being chased by a raptor, get to water and swim down and in the opposite direction. Just don't get caught by piranhas!
