How do I kill a raptor? raptor battling strategies in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
I have no idea where these losers come from!!! They just pop out of nowhere and pounce on me! It’s annoying asf and they don’t even give you a chance to fight back!
Ack, these things are so fast it’s hard to get away from them... but lucky for you here are some suggestions of how to get away from a pack of raptors(or just one lol)
1. Bola it and kill/run away
2.run under a brontosaurus’s legs
3. Enter a body of water and start swimming
4. Keep a neutral or passive wild dino between you and it, ( parasaurs, carbonemys and trikes
5. Get on a rock and shoot it
6. Run to a cliff
7. Cross a river
If you still want a raptor that pounces go to aberration
They are annoying when they’re not on your Side. running into them all the time is probably why I’ve tamed over 25 of them. right now they are the most tamed Dino that I have in ark.
If you start a new island I would recommend trying to get a raptor early as they are good hunters and only need a bowler and wooden club to tame. I would recommend taming at least 3-4 raptor as they will then have a pack boost in health and damage. If you get a pack early your going to be safe for a while.
When a raptor pins you. You can do nothing and no weapon works.
EXCEPT..... Metal/stone Hatchet. Even though it doesn't show any hitting animation. You will see that while pinned downed You can cause damage to it through a hatchet.(MOBILE TRIED). Up If Anyone Does Experiment. Good luck. Try it.
Where do i find one i have been trying to get one lol stupid spinos inte
rrupting my tame
was like "Oh a level 5 -alpha- raptor. C'mon Carnage(my raptor), let's show this guy who's the real alpha"
Lost my raptor, my other raptor when I went back to get my stuff, gave up on whatever I had in my inventory and got mauled by a normal raptor when I respawned random because my bed is in high CD
I'd rather fight an alpha carno and alpha rex than this b*tch.
Killed the alpha raptor with my ptera but then, few days later a fricking theri sliced my ptera to death. So I deleted that save and started a new playthrough.
Lesson: Don't mess with alpha raptors. And get the **** away from places with theri spawns.
Raptors are really easy to kill
Just use sword or shotgun
On mobile they CAN fit through doorways, just saying that rq!
Wanna kill one?
For scairdy noobs who have longneck rifles
Step 1: pullout longneck rifle as it does more damage than the fabricated sniper rifle
Step2: get it to notice you
Step3 :when it charges it runs in a straight line so shoot [has to be headshot for high levels]
Do not place level 27 tek parasaur near. I learned that the hard way. I still miss Rodney
When you see it at low level bola that’s best way to survive it and then nail it with spears to kill
i saw an alpha one time and it killed 3 of my very high level raptors and the first raptor i ever bred and my 2 dodos. It had about 3500 health and was impossible to kill without raptors and i was only on level 38 please stay far away.
Plz don’t kill. TaMe It. They will have ur back.
To knock out or kill a raptor, let it see you. Then start running in circles around the raptor and keep hitting it. It worked for me so it can work for you!
Super raptor plus I named my raptor that
just seen a tek raptor!!! cant believe it. i cant find any info about it
Stay far away stand on a rock if possible
To be honest, just always have multiple bolas on you if possible and these guys shouldn’t be to much of an issue.
