Encountering Tips

How do I kill a raptor? raptor encountering and battling strategies in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
bola it and shoot it with arorws
keep a close eye on a raptor or else bc they scare the frick out of you and pounce you if you're not aware of one . keep ur bola out just in case you see a raptor running towards you. you must imedietly kill or tame it bc the
bola lasts 30 secs.
i hate that raptors scare me alot when im lvl 12 with low health.
Raptors are annoying enough, especially when they jump on you and attack you. But I got hit by a freaking ALPHA RAPTOR...AND I'M NOT EVEN LEVEL 12.
My stupid monkey brain thought, "Ooh! Wouldn't it be cool and useful to have an alpha raptor?" (I previously lost my first and last raptor to a carno and promptly erased my save.)
THAT STUPID FRICKING DINOSAUR RAN AT ME LIKE ITS TALL WAS ON FIRE, KILLED MY PARADAUR, THEN PROCEEDED TO MURDER ME IN TWO SWIPES AND I LOST ALL MY STUFF
okay I'm done venting now
I was playing in easy location level 60 i was searching raptors nearby I SAW ALFA RAPTOR WHICH FOLLOWED ME AND WREAKED MY WHOLE BASE IT WAS 25 HEALTH HOW I AM SUPPOSED TO FIGHT
Run and get the Highground as fast as you can
Who all hates the alpha raptors i know I do
My friend and I just tamed a pachycephalasaurus since we just started and we saw a raptor in the woods nearby he crafted a bola, and went to tame it I realized there was a pack but it was too late they went after him and I got them to focus on me I used admin commands to fly away, but I didn’t have the gear to get rid of them so I went back to my friend. Turns out he never got pachy out of the way so the pack killed him I instantly shut down my console knowing that it wouldn’t save. AVOID RAPTORS UNLESS YOU HAVE BOLAS!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Raptors can not pounce you unless it’s an aberrant
We all have to agree this was the hardest tame early game
Ah, I get this now! Tip! New players would 100% die from only 1 raptor unless if your very experienced at ark then probably 50% with 2 raptors. But a whole pack of raptors-…(some raptor screech noises)…..(chomp)…….(silence)
Lol good luck with encountering, try to bring a very strong tame with you, mostly for distracting or protecting, suggesting a trike and etc stronger ones, you may survive!
This is not a Velociraptor!!!! Ark raptors are actually a sub species of Utahraptor!
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.
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.
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!
They’re where ever gallimimus are lol
Do not approach this in early game. Maintain a distance ever with some tamed dilos please even in late game these mess with you and even can kill you un-prepared.
There was a HUGE pack of raptors and I was alone. And I was left dead on the sand as the raptors tore into me. Wow.
I HATE THEM THEY CAME OUT OF NOWHERE AND KILLED MY PHIOMIA DUCK THEY CAN BURN IN HELL
When u r running away from these guys early game u r probably gonna die so try to run to the closest herbi and aggro the raptor onto it! This saved me an embarrassing amount of times lol
