There’s this glitch that happens to me where, if I get pounced by one of these suckers, I go to my inventory a couple times and the raptor gets off of me. I’m on mobile.

Bolas are the best for Raptor taming.

Quite easy to tame *if* you have a bola. Simply bola it, and shoot it in the head with either tranq arrows or a slingshot. If you don't have a bola and see one of these guys charging at you, shoot it with tranq arrows or if you have it, stronger tranq ammo. Low levels will fall to one or two tranq arrows. I've seen tips telling you to starve-tame them, but it's really not nessesary. Just give them some raw meat - or if you're feeling eextra, kibble. You shouldn't need any narcotics for levels under 30. And there you go, enjoy your new raptor. Up if this helped!

A bola can end a regular raptor, but alphas are a different story.

Instead of using your bola on the raptor. How about letting your tribemate get pounced and get mauled by the raptor? The raptor is busy mauling tribemate how about using that as an advantage it just stands still now take your knockout weapon of choice and ta da!! KO sure your tribemember will be angry but a sacrifice will come at a greater reward.

To kill at low level, use a bow in your main and spear/pike in your off hand. Try shooting it from a distance at first so you can land more arrows on it, then finish it with a spear. With low level raptors you can even take it on with just a spear, but you’ll need to level up ho a bit first.

⬆️ so beginners can see!

The one creature I don’t mind killing 😡 I hate their pounce attack on mobile 😡

If you're being chased my raptors (or anything raptor sized really) run into deep water and go down below them, they should swim away in a couple seconds and you should be able to swim away free. Good luck to all the beginners!! 😁

Sometimes multiple will pull up on you

ALPHA RAPTORS CAN FORM A PACK OF NORMAL RAPTORS????

How to tame (VERY EASY): craft a bow. Craft tranq arrows. Shoot the raptor three times. Shove food down its throat until it decides to be you friend :). (I did this on mobile and idk if it works the same way of pc)

Speedy, deadly and agile the raptir is the perfect mount for getting around the island if you have just started playing ark. The saddle for the raptor is unlocked at lvl18. Raptors efficiently kill small dinosaurs, and can even kill a trike. Once upgraded they can take on low level Carnotauruses.

They are fast, faster and more intelligent than you think. Bola them and attack them from behind. They are easy to tame but difficult to escape. Just be as responsive as you can.

If your raptor is level 200+ then if you are careful you can easily kill level 50 Rex, you just have to lead it to a paracer or a diplo the Rex will attack the diplo and you can take it out from behind. people can get easy levels

Here's an easy way to tame a raptor

1 bring bolas. You will need atleast 5 or to be more safe 10. Then just bola it before that go on the back of a pteranadon or moth and look for the one you want to tame then kill the other ones bola the high level one.

2 narcotics and tranq arrows. Raptors don't need much narcs or tranqs to tame but bring extra if there's another one you want to tame.

3 FOOD. I would bring simple kibble or just raw meat they'll both work just fine. Put the FOOD in its inventory and the last step-

4 wait. You won't have to wait a long time but bring narcs and a early yet strong tame like a moschops, trike, and if it's high level a Para protect it and when it wakes up BAM you have a raptor! Up if this guide helps down if it did not! :)

uses for pvp:

early game protection: raptors are decently strong, and a pack can take down threats much larger than itself.

Raiding? you bet! : This Tactic Will require two players on a tribe.

the first player pounces the player you are raiding.

the second player starts tranquilizing the player you are raiding.

the pounce will not let the raid target move, nor attack. the tranqs are to render this effect permanent. (cuz he'll be knocked out)

mid game uses: not a whole lot they are good for... backup mounts is what i use them for.

late game: ... what? you thought there would be a use late game? yeah right.

To tame a Raptor, throw a bola at it and knock it out unconscious with the following items: wooden club, sling shot, bow with tranq arrow, or crossbow with tranq arrow. Then feed it meat to tame it. It’s actually not that hard.

I tamed a raptor and named him Peter! Then when i was chopping tree a crocodille came and tried to kill me! Peter jumped on the crocodille, killed him and saved me! After that i named him Blue!

Pump wight to start they don't have much

Fun fact!

These creatures are actually based off a Dino called a utahraptor and not a velociraptor!
