How do I kill a raptor? raptor encountering and battling strategies in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
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
This absolute demon circled my tiny house for over TWENTY MINUTES when i first started out on extinction
One time me my dilo,and lvl 29 dodo were walking around the beach and a one of these killed both my tames and I survived 1like =1 RIP for kill accepted and mandible
If you see a raptor that has an orange glow around its chest, then it means that raptor is... AN ALPHA! ...in its pack which means that it is a high level, probably mate boosted, does more damage, and that there are probably more raptors near you.
Note this when trying to find high level raptors as you wanna target the one with an orange aura near its chest as it has the highest level in the local area.
And to the people who are playing old ark mobile, ignore everything that I said, as this feature only exists for allosauruses on old ark mobile.
These things are the type you would see in a dark alley absolute thugs
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.
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.
These are a pain in the butt for bobs
A bola can end a regular raptor, but alphas are a different story.
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!
The one creature I don’t mind killing 😡 I hate their pounce attack on mobile 😡
At one point I found a alpha tek raptor but when I tried to spawn a alpha tek raptor myself it did not work
There’s this glitch that happens to me where, if I get pounced by one of these suckers, I go to my inventory a couple times and the raptor gets off of me. I’m on mobile.
These guys are literally scum of the earth!! I was trying to take a level 210 griffin and they decided to come up and kill it when it was at around 95 percent through with taming I want to cryy
If you're being chased my raptors (or anything raptor sized really) run into deep water and go down below them, they should swim away in a couple seconds and you should be able to swim away free. Good luck to all the beginners!! 😁
These guys, for some reason, can't beat turtles. Several times I have seen a 1v1 between a level 30 raptor and level 10 turtle, turtle is barely standing but the raptor goes down regardless. So if you see ONE fighting a turtle, it's a lost cause.
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!
If early game and have no mount It is knock out or die as the are so fast.
whoever said they were pounced by an alpha raptor, you meant normal raptor, alpha raptors dont pounce
ALPHA RAPTORS CAN FORM A PACK OF NORMAL RAPTORS????
