How do I kill a raptor? raptor encountering and battling strategies in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
As of the latest update raptors are a greater predator than Bill Cosby in the playground. They can dismount you from any Dino’s they would normally agro including argents and griffins. They don’t seem to poe a threat on therizinosaurs, wyverns or megatheriums.
Me: *Tames a Dung Beetle* My screen: Your Sever - 272 (Mantis) Was killed by a Raptor-20. 1 up = 1 Mourn
So I don’t have a raptor yet I only have a level 9 cobenaymus and 3 deceased dodos anyway if you want to try and tame these things go ahead and get killed they will chase you all the way into the ocean but you will be very lucky if you even make it 10 feet it literally pounces on you there is dust every where and it shows dust and a raptor on your player and if you get pounced on your done fore one time I went up the mountains to find a T. rex to run from (I get killed for fun sometimes)and I was getting chased by a saber tooth then I was getting chased by a allosaurus and then a pack of raptors came out of nowhere at the tip of the mountain and then a saber tooth came out of nowhere and I ran from both the saber and the raptors and and tried to get to my base but the raptor jumped from behind and it pounced and the saber and the raptor played tug of war with me and I died and when I came back to get my stuff a allosaurus ate me the end
Can fit through door frames on mobile
It was night was distracted by a lystrosaurus (I think that’s how you spell it) looked into the forest beside saw one running to me…
I stood no chance
This isn't really a tip but is there any way to get unpinned on mobile? (Other than dying)
I out ran one on an iggy an it was a lvl 68
Alpha Raptors are extremely vulnerable to knockback and can be repeatedly knocked out of range before they have a chance to hit. Rexes can easily maul Alpha Raptors at even mediocre levels and with a primitive saddle (plus Alpha Raptors do not aggro onto Rexes making travel safe if you just want to avoid it)
Playing w my noob friend on split screen ps4 and we were looking for a iggy at the edge of the swamp and we got jumped by a panicking raptor. Didn’t attack but we where scared silly and ran like a iggy. Found some dillos, tamed them, then the same raptor came and jumped me. I bolad it and was so excited to tame cus I never have. But my Dillo killed it 😐 yup so no raptor for me 😑
They are so fast. Do not approche when you are a beginner.
Go die raptor 1 like = one dead raptor
They can’t fight your mount. I killed like, 1M raptors with my Baryonyx.
If you, if your new to the game, think that raptors are super dangerous and powerful, then your wrong. I myself was one, and yet all you need to do is bola them and knock them out with preferably tranq arrows. Stuff it up with any meat, and this pet is useful for defense!
Ok, raptors are just EVIL. It killed me and I was just about to kill my first raptor on my own! But it HAD to kill me, ROAR! So, I’m going to try to tame and IF IT DOESN'T WORK, THEN I will kill them all.
For a player whose just starting out, these are a very dangerous creature to encounter. However, a handful of spears is all you need to protect yourself, and quick reflexes. The biggest advantage the raptor has is their speed, so if you're in an area where they're common, keep alert, because once one pounces you, you're basically dead.
A pack of lvl 1 raptors can deal more damage than a rex, these things are scary, make sure you don’t get pinned down by one of them. Hit markers go mad
If you want to tame a raptor try to bola it before it jumps on you they are super fast and barely take fall damage,A level 10 raptor can take out a titanboa level 15
You can see them first and they won't attack until they see you. Use a bola if you want to immobilize it. If not, get a lot of dilos ealry on (I still have a huge pack on every island separated by water that have about 5-10 lol). I hoped this helped if you wanted to hunt some raptors.
Who else tried hiding in a bush ( by the way they say there is a dangerous Dino nearby
If you are a newbie stay way far from them as they jump on you and kill you and are in pavk of 2 or more. 😖😖
