A way to trap one is to make a stone foundation and 4 stone doorways and place all of them except one of the doorways and lure a raptor in and place the doorway and block him off

When you are teaming the raptor don't get too close with it if you get enough close the raptor will jump on you and kill you

put speed in to level ups and name it Sonic

There are quite a number of mistakes to be made with these guys, and I’m gonna list them off now.

Mistake No. #1: Encountering a raptor and assuming there’s only one and thus only crafting one bola, only to be outnumbered 3-1.

Reason: Raptors are pack hunters, and ACTIVELY WANT you to think there’s only one nearby so that they can use the element of surprise to overwhelm you and shred through you like paper.

How to avoid: Always carry MULTIPLE bolas. DO NOT think that you’re gonna be safe if you only have one. Besides, to re-craft it every single time is a hassle.

Mistake No. #2: Equipping the bola at the last second because you think that one Ascendant weapon you have is gonna save you.

Reason: You’re not tough. Just face it. Yeah, I see that Ascendant bow you got there, or that sword or shotgun or whatever it is you have. But if you get pounced, that’s your main weakness and their main strength. If you’ve come underprepared, you’re already dead at that point.

How to avoid: Always wield the bola FIRST if you suspect a raptor to be nearby. Otherwise, it’s basically attempted suicide.

Mistake No. #3: Actively hunting a raptor with the intention to tame it and thus coming underprepared.

Reason: When trying to tame raptors, it can get easy to feel all powerful and invincible if you’re really good at killing them to begin with. Therefore, you might get rid of a few items to shed some weight from your inventory so that you can focus on what you need for the taming process. But you’ll probably regret it if you get ambushed.

How to avoid: Never underestimate raptors based on your intentions or other predispositions, as you never know if others are nearby. As you’re probably starting to understand by now, where there’s one, there’s a likelihood for there to be more.

Mistake No. #4: Trying to counter 3 wild raptors with one tamed raptor and being surprised when BOTH you AND it get killed.

Reason: That one tamed raptor you have ain’t gonna save you if you’re dealing with 3 other raptors. At that point you’re outnumbered 3-2. And that raptor can still be pounced, meaning it might as well not exist.

How to avoid: If you HAVE to use tamed raptors against wild ones, always ensure you have at least 2 or more following you so that one pounce doesn’t mean that that particular journey ends there.

Mistake No. #5: Trying to loot the inventory of what you just killed without waiting to see if the danger warning goes away.

Reason: This applies to all aggressive creatures, but especially when it comes to raptors, you can think you’re in the clear, and then get killed by one because you thought you were safe just because you killed ONE.

How to avoid: Always keep your eyes open. Don’t just assume you’re safe just because you killed ONE THING. If the danger warning is still there after 3 seconds, you ARE NOT out of the woods yet.

They cost 24-48 amber to revive, the 2nd highest revive cost for a wild creature and the same as a giga so it's not really that worth it if you wanna tame an eerie raptor.

These creatures are fantastic! If you ask it to target a animal, like a para it can kill it it like, 2 seconds.

How To Tame:

1. I recommend being high like on a rock.

2. Bola it

3. Make sure to be behind the raptor, you can knock it out with fists, club, traq, etc.

4. Feed it raw meat if you don’t have anything else ( You can use soothing balm.)

5. Name your raptor! Enjoy!

Once I tamed a Raptor and named her Emerald. She was a beautiful green level 38 Raptor. Once another level 5 Raptor killed me, so I took her to get revenge on that stupid little pest. However, as she was killing it, I accidentally clicked on an ad (I play on Mobile) and she disappeared. I tried to whistle for her, but she didn’t come back.

If you ever encounter a raptor;

•Try to bola it if you have one and escape.

•If you don't have a bola,Run through trees and rocks in a zigzag way, creatures in ark are a bit too dumb in chasing.

•If there aren't many trees or rocks,for ex: you are in a plane area,try to lure the raptor to a passive or herbivores dino,like trikes,carbos,or even some moschops.

•If there isn't anything mentioned above then there's one way, Die and recollect the items.🤪

These ruthless predators will kill you and all five of your dodos trust me I have experience

Gets a good fall damage reduction. I jumped off a very small cliff and took like 50 damage. I found that if you use the pounce attack before you land it helps. (I’m on Abberation and using an abberant raptor and I’m on ultimate mobile edition.)

I was just walking all of a sudden you have entered a dangerous area I watch a alpha raptor maul a spino

Should I tame a raptor? (

100

I’ll tame a raptor!)

If high energy level these things can be monsters and beat caves in a heartbeat.

I encountered a alpha raptor, he tore down my wooden walls and killed all my dodos, I’ve of course died for trying to save my babies. I stood up on my stone house and shot it, I was a noob at that time. Tried to tame it (didn’t know it couldn’t happen) so I cheesed it from on top with my Trang arrows, over 30 of them.

It’s recommended to build your house in a material that it can’t break

No-one's shared a tip about raptor breeding so I thought I'd help you folk out!

Raptors hatchlings are really easy to take care of. They hatch with about 3 standing torches, although the number varies depending on the ambient temperature of your region and time of day. They'll need about a stack of raw meat to make it through the entire maturation process and can be fed from a trough once they reach the 'juvenile' stage (10% maturity), however you WILL need to give them food beforehand as they'll starve before they reach 10%. Otherwise you can really just leave them be. Obviously they can't be ridden and I strongly don't recommend fighting with raptors that haven't matured yet as they have less health than a fully grown raptor (which already has low hp).

Happy breeding! I hope this tip helped!

Dinodude8’s tip for taming! ( a new series of taming info for all the creatures possible. If I get to 10 Uhpvutes (I did that on purpose!) on this I will do dilo😄.) STEP 1: get bolas, Narcotic arrows, and a lot of meat (preferably prime but anything will do) weapons and some sustainable armor (if possible do it with friends! For fun and effectiveness, just make sure you tell them that you are TAMING it…not killing it. I learned that the hard way) STEP 2: find a raptor. Look at ark wiki for locations if you need help. Bola it and either take out or if you have bolas to spare and enough meat tame the other packmates. STEP 3: Once it has been knocked out feed it meat. And then…you have a raptor! P.S if you want. Craft a saddle beforehand so you can ride it back to base.

If you are new and you see on run for dear life

This dino is fast, like very fast, and deals a decent amount of damage for how easily it is to get. They do have a poor weight stat, so make sure to store heavier minerals in another tame or storage. Saddle at engram level 18 means its one of the earliest tamed you can really get, cannot go wrong with the raptor.

This absolute demon circled my tiny house for over TWENTY MINUTES when i first started out on extinction

For beginners, run away if you get a pop up saying you’re in a dangerous area. It’s probably one of these guys ready to rip your throat out
