RAPTORS CAN NOT PRONE YOU IN WATER!!!!!!!

Press the Reddit button below so ppl can see pls

If you play ark get to at least 114 % speed or else they'll catch you... if you dont then run to the nearest trike, parasour, carbyonemys, or iguanodon If you can and let the raptors aggro to the dino... then run away... second way is by bolawing it and run away... 3rd way is to swim away to another island and run off cause they aren't fast swimmers and they'll de aggro to you... the 4th way is by mounting a flyer like a pteranadon or argy and flying away. Hope this helped

Raptor is hated by many, but there is a good tactic that works (she helps me, I don't know about you) in general, the Raptor attacks, you hit it and circle around it, but not too close and not too far away and hit that's the whole tactic

Don't worry alpha versions of these creature DON'S POUNCE so you don't have to worry about being dismounted from your tame

they spawn in dangerous areas especially near the snow area and redwoods

Tame a 140-150 pteranodon with kibble,boost stam for a few lvls and you can tae on low lvl Alpha-raptors with the barrel-roll attack!Easy raw prime meat!

If one attacks your base and you have dinos that you don’t want to lose just let it pounce on you while your tames destroy it killed a lvl 70 by doing this

Once u have tranq arrows it's pretty easy to knock them out. I once took out two of them at the same time. It only takes 3 or 4 tranq arrows for a level 20 raptor.

You cant knock alpha rapters out i suggest you get a gun or a crosbo

It’s a coward and it’s pathetic they hunt in packs the best way to lose one is to zigzag

Do not be like me and don’t encounter it with only a level 27 tek parasaur. I miss my Rodney

im in me undies punching a tree and BOOM out of nowhere there bastards come and try and kill meh im runnin for me life i run out of stam and they strip me naked and were me like some sort of hand puppet!

I see these guys all the time and I never have a Dino to come help me. If you don’t have bolas RUN. These guys rarely go alone. They always have at least one friend to kill you. Don’t underestimate them. Good luck

If your trying to tame one of these, for the love of god do not bring a Dino with you (though it may depend) I brought my parasaur with me to get a raptor, I got pounced, died and never saw my mount or stuff again. Or if you need a mount, put it somewhere safe once you do find a raptor to tame.

I woke up one time and raptors were eating my thatch base, I rounded them up and went back to my base and luckily they didn’t get to my bed OR my chest. I got very lucky and I have now upgraded my base to wood. I recommend u don’t build a base from thatch, wait for wood first

Tip to kill/farm alpha raptors: do the terror bird hunt and you will usually get Mastercraft or journeyman sword, if you get a weak sword then move on to step 2

Step 2: tame a direbear or therizino, they do a shit ton of damage and have decent knockback, you can also tame trikes but they dont have as much health and dont do as much damage as direbear or therizino, if you perfer on using trikes, be sure to level up melee and health, thats all you need, i do also recommend on leveling stamina because your gonna be fighting for a long time but thats up to you

Step 3: locate the alpha raptor and kill it, if there’s 2 alpha raptors then you need to lead the second one to a parasaur or phiomia, make sure there are no annoying microraptors that will knock you off and get you killed, if your near a river, run to the deepwater, this will trick the alpha raptor that your not there since alpha raptors dont aggro on you or your dinos underwater, thats all, hopefully this helps

Stay clear of them until you can make bolas. Find one by itself. Tame. Keep it alive until you can get it friend. Wild Raptors generally travel in packs and you only have one. It will die. Once you get two you can take a little more risk. 3 or more and you will feel a lot more safe out from your wood 2x1 base. Get 10 and you feel invincible.

I keep seeing people say they never find them again but you can, go to player profile (like you would to level up) it will say how many tames you have click that and you ca. Request them they lose everything in inventory but you get them back (not sure about tack)

In my experience you don't want to encounter this unless you have put quite a few points in speed

Part three: I went back to the place and turns out it was a raptor. It jumped on me and took me off my parasaur, but my brave tales fought it off. It ran off and attacked a wild parasaur, but my dilo followed it and killed it.
