Encountering Tips
How do I kill a raptor? raptor battling strategies in ARK: Survival Evolved.
Ark, whenever I encounter a raptor it always pounces on me and kills me and I can’t do anything about it if I’m alone or something, can you change the game so at least I can kick or punch the raptor some? I’d probably still die but at least I could express some of my annoyance and anger on this thing. ⬆️ if you think this is a decent idea! 👍👌
Usually spawn in the south of the island also known as the war zones of the south
These ruthless predators will kill you and all five of your dodos trust me I have experience
I encountered a alpha raptor, he tore down my wooden walls and killed all my dodos, I’ve of course died for trying to save my babies. I stood up on my stone house and shot it, I was a noob at that time. Tried to tame it (didn’t know it couldn’t happen) so I cheesed it from on top with my Trang arrows, over 30 of them.
It’s recommended to build your house in a material that it can’t break
Once, I saw a alpha raptor teleporting to parasaurs and instantly killing them. Don’t call them velociraptors, they are utahraptors. And the utahraptors WILL kill you.
Alpha raptors cann Not perform a jump attack.
I was just walking all of a sudden you have entered a dangerous area I watch a alpha raptor maul a spino
The one creature I don’t mind killing 😡 I hate their pounce attack on mobile 😡
Don’t push your luck with these guys. If they see you, you’re screwed unless you have adequate weapons and/or a flyer. These guys… these are the soldiers of ark.
If you are new and you see on run for dear life
For beginners, run away if you get a pop up saying you’re in a dangerous area. It’s probably one of these guys ready to rip your throat out
My one tip is DONT GO NEAR THEM (: they jump on you and kill you and then they eat you
When I first saw a raptor that was surrounded in red smoke I thought it was on fire so it would be weaker. I attack it and it kills me. Turns out it was an alpha raptor. Remember this so you don’t make my mistake.
These are a pain in the butt for bobs
This tip is for batteling Alpha Raptors in Ark Survival Ascended.
In ASA, Alpha’s can now eat corpses, but tooday I noticed they can’t eat baby corpes. So If you want to kill an Alpha Raptor, make sure he kills a baby dino and while he’s attacking the corpes put some arrows in the head. I tried it myself and it works!
If you run into a raptor stay crouched wen the pounce on you quickly
Un crouch and it will miss the pin.
To kill at low level, use a bow in your main and spear/pike in your off hand. Try shooting it from a distance at first so you can land more arrows on it, then finish it with a spear. With low level raptors you can even take it on with just a spear, but you’ll need to level up ho a bit first.
⬆️ so beginners can see!
So when I was taming one (about 3 minutes from when this was put on here) I went to dododex to see how much raw meat it needs, so after, I put 9 pieces in it's inventory, and when it was 88.9 % tamed and then a THERIZENOSAUR COMES OUT OF NOWHERE AND KILLS IT RIGHT WHEN IT'S TAMED!
Don't mess with the alpha rapter
For an alpha, a bronto with good stamina can deal with them no problem, they have massive knock back so no issue
Or you can get a journey man sword and do it yourself
