How do I kill a raptor? raptor battling strategies in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
These things are soooooooooooooooooooo flipen annoying
If you decide to take their egg... Just take it and run for your life. If they are close, it's over for you
With a 600+ hp trike you can take on an alpha raptor did it my self
One time I was riding my trike Horny, and I rode to one of these guys since usually when I got attacked by a raptor Horny would kill it. But the last time that happened, the raptor tore off my hide clothing and I died. Oh, and just an FYI, they will knock you off your tame.
This creatures are annoying as hell...
This thing will KNOCK YOU OFF YOUR BIRD and possibly kill you I don’t know if this is for everyone but it is for us.
If you encounter a raptor and you need to escape just bola it and sprint off.
With the new Valguero update, you can dodge the pounce attack of a raptor. Just press jump, and you will roll to the side.
You betta watch out cuz hea we come...we ain’t stopping until we kill someone...We the raptas your every day factas bloody as fxck make you crap on your ruck we gunna find your children eat em alive deprive you of joy make you unemployed we da most hardcore gang in town don’t run even if you in a crown...we ain’t stopping until we kill someone... (The start of this mini rap was borrowed by a famous rapper but the rest of it is completely made by me. Also am listening to rap rn and just felt like writing this in lol)
If you kill one of these you might get trex skull skin for hats
Dont tame on craggs island. These will murder u and your soon to be tame. I tried to tame a spino and these guys came and slaughtered it. I barely survived. Lost 4 kibble, 200 biotoxin, and soothing balm. Why
simple pike to the face 2-3 times, or have a tamed dilo spit at it and shoot it with arrows, easy kill
Cant hear the darn things so watch your back if you see some around and have a hell of a sense rang(xbox)
Me and my friend just wandered around looking for stuff because we just spawned in aberration. But raptors appeared out of nowhere killing my friend and eventually killed me. Btw we had no weapons or clothes. Btw we were in the portal area
Ps4 tip Idk if this has worked for anyone else but I spam L2 and R2 and I sometimes make it out
They will jump on you what feels like 500 light years away
If you run into it don’t let it jump on you
They are easy to tame but watch out for the pounce you can't move when the Raptors on top so If you have enough heath and a good animal you can make it. BOLA needed.
Juste encountered about 7 of em forgot how close they were i was killing a argy lvl 16 with pteranodon (easy kill) then landed my pteranodon little did i know they were on there way (btw i have 500 health) one jumped on me lasted 15 secondes and my mouth droped not sur what lvl they were i know one was bloody cause of pt probably his lvl 135 so .. anyway watch ure selfs for these do not take lightly ... oh and btw these in xave A1 juste make sure there torpor isnt too high thats how one of mine died on my other game there was a titanboa in the floor (thanks wild card again) i didnt see it so couldnt do much...
Found that tek raptors seem to take less to tame over normal Raptor and have better stats
