If you’re riding a raptor pounce on the wild one before I pounces one you(it’s works on mobile)
Haven't seen anyone Writing it so here I go..
You actually can roll out of his jumpy attack by pressing space in the right time.
I was running around, then I see ‘You have entered a dangerous area’ and I thought it was just another there but it turned out to be an alpha raptor when I saw a bunch of dead trikes around.
In the ark mobile revamp, they don’t pounce anymore. Or so I’ve experienced. I don’t know if that changes when they get the pack buff, though.
Also, the tek raptors don’t count. I’ve been pounced by solo tek raptors for some reason.😭
Alpha Raptors can destroy Wooden Spike walls in a single hit. Beware low levels.
Heres what my 3 man tribe did pm the island...coords, 77.1, 65..built a gated base on the river (behemoth gates), theres an alpha raptor spawn nearby, often two or three of them around base all the time, great xp and loot...but you CANNOT TAME ALPHAS. but you can use doorframes and another behemoth gate to build a taming pen off your perimeter wall, works great, lead something in (like a raptor), it cant fit thru doorframes, tranq and tame, open the inside gate when complete and walk it into base
A whole pack attacked me. I was on a cliff side and muttered the words “clever girl” before the thing pounced me off a cliff taking both of us down
When encountering this creature…you don’t have to be fast enough…you just have to have another player with you…and a bola.
Ez way to tame raptors✨
1. GET BOLAS I promise it’s so easy with bolas
2. Bola it… duh
3. Hit with tranq arrows/ boomerang etc.
4. Meat.
5. Now u have a raptor well done
Raptors are some what hard and easy to tame due to being in packs or surrounded by other creatures that might aggro on it or you, or it will Arggo on the creature itself and might get killed in the process. Craft some bolas to trap it, have tranq arrows or a club if you cant get darts or other knock out weapons or creatures, and meat suggesting prime meat, mutton (both are good raw or cooked).
When ever I am taming raptors I recommend carry a few bolas and take a high hp mount (trikes work great). then once you find a pack bola them tame the highest lv and then one of the opposite gender for a breeding pair.then you can kill or tame the rest
When taming these things make sure to beware that it’s pack isn’t around because if it’s pack is around and figures out it’s friend is knocked out it will start to come after you. Also these things dont have a lot of weight so make sure to level them up on weight.
I had a beautiful raptor that I used to kill a raptor and even a terivino he was a level 125 but when I ran into a carno I got killed emidiatly but my raptor killed him and I never found him again because he had wondering on
