What are tips for raptor? Tips and strategies for raptor in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
WHY DOES EVERYBODY KEEP CALLING THEM VELOCIRAPTORS??? THESE ARE UTAHRAPTORS, VEKOCIRAPTOR WERE THE SIZE OF A PLUMP TURKEY WITH A TWO-METER LONG TAIL!
Take a bola and hit the raptor then take a slingshot and start throwing rocks and it then when unconscious feed it any type of meat or kibble
Bola, slingshooter and raw meat (might need narcotics or narco berries if higher than level 44
Never Bring raptors to the swamp. I went in with 8 and came out with 2.(still can’t get over the deaths)
I trapped one in a cage and tamed it. Took a little bit of time but it was easy once she was in there. Highly recommend
Build an four stone foundation and stone pillars in each side and a ramp of the other side (wherever you want to place) then lure the raptor in and U go out of the trap and start it knock out tranq or slingshot needed 15 narcotics during the tame and for good reason feed what kibble you want
To tame a raptor will sometimes be easy if there is a spot where they can't reach you or find a way up. You'll need some bolas and tranq arrows and if you dont have tranq arrows just use a wooden club to knock it out and give it the amount of meat the dododex says.
If you want to escape as a low level, have a bola ready and throw it or upgrade your movement speed until it gets higher than 112%.
If you want to fight it as a low level, use a bola and quickly attack it from the back.
Beware of Alphas, They are much faster than a normal raptor and deal tons of damage, but they can’t pin you onto the ground or give a buff to other raptors in the area.(because that would be too op)
You can kill these with a hatchet. I was minding my own business when I start getting hit by a lev 7. Hit it with the primitive club till it was knocked out then finished it with a hatchet. I’m level 5 and new to ark.
How to tame.
1. Use bola
2. Shove it full of narcotic arrows.
3. Shove it full of meat.
4. (If necessary), Shove it full of narcotics.
There you go, you got a raptor
I tamed my first one by finding one raptor on its own distracted by hunting prey. I snuck up behind it and used a bola and a bat, then just gave it raw meat.
Hey I’m the one who told you about my raptor red…that story down there. Idk why it did 2 of them. All I wanted to say. Have a good day.
For some reason, if you’re using the on-screen buttons on mobile, hold the attack button with a tool/melee weapon before the raptor pins you. You’ll still be attacking it, and it can’t dodge because it can’t move. Easy way to kill raptors, if you aren’t afraid to take damage. No idea if/how this works for the KO.
Just find a single one and bola it, then a couple tranq arrows should work, feed it normal or prime meat its easier to obtain and your gonna wanna save the other stuff
Just tame a male and a female, breed them, tame others when you can and breed them too, and soon you will have an army
Don’t bother trying to knock out an alpha, or stun it. It will do nothing.
