Ok so most people would go for a bola and a club but here's a more efficient way for people that have enough resources that they can build a trap.(this trap can be used with any building materials but I'm gonna use wood)Ok so first build a 2x2 wood platform/floor and then put one way door ways for all the walls now put doors in them keep open one of the doors. Now pick the side that is opposite of the open door and place a ramp or stairs going into the trap. Now the trap. is ready, lead the creature up into the from the ramp and then run through the open door and then close it. Now you can walk up the ramp and tranq it.

So ya I was exploring and totally forgot to bring my boas I kinda ran into a pack of Raptors so I died

I came back the nex day to get my stuff (with boas this time)

And saw the alpha raptor btw I died again when I relized that boas dont work on the alpha

Ps to tame a raptor use boas and just knock out and put meat and

your done

(READ CAREFULLY AND SLOWLY)

You will need bolas, a bow, 20 tranq arrows, sleeping bag and ofc meat ( or prime meat. Sarco is the easiest prime meat source).

Find a good level raptor, 130 -150 if playing on normal difficulty, 250 - 300 if playing on hard.

Now take out your sleeping bag and sleep.( What it does is that it will starve the Raptor or any other dino even griffin so you dont have to wait very long. So make sure to sleep before taming.)

Attract it and its other teammates (if any) and bola the raptor(s)

Kill off the unnecessary ones and bola your selected raptor again if needed.

Start tranqing at 5s intervals per shot.

After it is knocked out, use soothing balm (if you have it) and give it prime meat (recommended as it is easy to get)

After it wakes up, name it, saddle it up and have fun :).

Raptors are great but tame higher levels because they dont have much weight which can be a pain.

But they are great tames overall

You can kill an alpha if your on a high level and and have a trike on a high level also ride it and bash the alpha

I’ve done it and it works

This is how to tame a raptor when u are a newbie first climb up the rock and Bola the raptor,by the way u can get the Bola in lvl10, and hit him with a slingshot and tame em

You can tame it easily, u don't even need any tranq arrows/darts. All you have to do is get a bola and a club, and then find a raptor. Once u have found it, u bola it and then knock it out with the club. After it's knocked out, put some meat in it's inventory, and wait for it to tame. Then enjoy ur new raptor!

pls Up so nubs can see!!

Great starter tames, as you move on to endgame tame some 150’s and boom you have a raptor that will be your companion during hard times.

When taming a raptor you have to be careful of your surroundings, when I tried on my first time, two of the came up on me and started attacking me, they have a pounce feature when you are on the floor and can’t move or fight back, you get back up after some time but if you are in a fight with 2-4 of them, you’re screwed. When you’re only up against one of them, once you deal enough damage, start chasing, because they are quick to retreat, feed it any meat when it’s unconscious, my raptor is a nice blueish green, her name is Yoshi.

Not real battle. RAPTOR VS TRICERATOPS! Raptor bite Triceratops! Triceratops use big horn and makes a hole in Raptor. But Raptors Friends come and WIN. VICTORY!!!!

DEFINITELY the best early game tame. Use bolas, then knock it out with Tranq arrows, and if you don’t have those then use a club. Early game it doesn’t have to be super high level, although using bolas and tranq arrows will allow you to tame any level easily.

Just have bola on you and use a club to knock it out or tranq arrows.

This thing is the true Boogeyman of Ark. It has a very distinct sound, they make, so if you hear it, it’s probably a good idea to sprint in the opposite direction and hope it didn’t see you. This bastard and a half can be extraordinarily sneaky, though, and I’ve had several cases of a couple breaking down my dodo coop and murdering them. They tend to travel in packs of at least two, often male and female, so if you see one and kill it or knock it out, don’t let your guard down; there’s probably more. Once came across a pack of seven of these thugs, and they tore up my entire base trying to get to my poor dodos and dilos. Honestly. What did they do to deserve that? :(

These things can pin Dinos up to the size of you

Yeet a bola at it when it runs at you, then tame it on just raw meat...tames pretty quickly

i swear, every damn place i go except the island where my base is has these guys. Ive been flying with my ptero a lot and ive seen these everywhere.

I was going to catch a dilo, I was going back and,

Then then he ambushed me!!!

But now I have an awesome tek rapter!

So watch out for rapter's in the bushes.

I was taming one once and some Allosaurus spawned in the distance a couple weeks after I killed the allos I saw the raptor and flew toward it and noticed it was tamed I couldn’t believe it and is still in my base to this day

I don't like Raptors when they're not tamed

How do I get rid of an alpha raptor lvl 6 with 3600 health?
