How do I kill a raptor? raptor encountering and battling strategies in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
We all have a love and hate relationship with raptors....why are they so loyal
2 tranq from crossbow to knock I think 3-4 with bow and if your a bob the best way to deal with them is a trike or stego
For some reason, if you’re using the on-screen buttons on mobile, hold the attack button with a tool/melee weapon before the raptor pins you. You’ll still be attacking it, and it can’t dodge because it can’t move. Easy way to kill raptors, if you aren’t afraid to take damage. No idea if/how this works for the KO.
Don’t bother trying to knock out an alpha, or stun it. It will do nothing.
If you see ONE, it’s not the one that will kill you.
The first time i came across a raptor, it was level 60 and i shot it in the face once. It jumped on me and i swear i was dead, but it ended up going unconscious. Later they got murdered after i was jumped by 5 titanboas and 4 other raptors… i would never be where I’m at now if it wasn’t for them.
Megapirhana. The worst. No. Die.
When I hear a raptor I just run as fast as I can raptors are really dangerous when you don’t know where they are but if you do know where is the raptor is you can try your luck and try to kill it or run.
Remember that this bad boy is always in a group of 2 - 3 and if u saw only 1 looking around for victim .. boy you better check your surrounding it might be a trap to lure a player in!!
Dimorph swarms can kill almost anything without taking any hits except for these because of the pounce mechanic. However if you have enough this isn't an issue, and alpha raptors can't pounce so dimorphs are my personal easiest way to kill them.
To escape one of these, you'll require +250% movement speed. Or you could just throw that Bola at it.
run away if you see this if your new. run away more if its a alpha
I saw a lv 20 alpha raptor and t the time I was taming a stego so I was on my Iguanadon backing away it was attacking the stego so I atacked then I was like screw this and ran away
Hey I’m the one who told you about my raptor red…that story down there. Idk why it did 2 of them. All I wanted to say. Have a good day.
If you ever encounter an alpha raptor in the wild and you’re unprepared, kill something like a dodo or a listro and lead it to the body. It should stop aggroing on you and will by you some time to escape. If that doesn’t work, find something like a trike and make the raptor accidentally hit it. They should start fighting while you run away.
When attacked Run under water and use spear
Beware, They have almost the highest DPS rate of all creatures.
Bolas are your friend. Trust me.
Bring a bola.but not for the raptor.For your friend.so you hit him with it and you can run.but he can’t.so he gets killed while you make a break for it.or tame it.thats what I do.#20 raptors later,
These are the most deadly enemies for beginners If one sees you, you have no chance of escape.
