What are tips for raptor? Tips and strategies for raptor in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
I’ve only played for a week and I a 14 Raptors
Raptors are extremely annoying sometimes. Wild ones attack fast, and pounce at some point. Just craft some bolas, DONT USE BAT/CLUB. It will kill the raptor if you do. Use fists, and before you set out to tame one, you have to get 1 stack of meat if you are taming a low lvl like 1-5 in my opinion. But get more meat stacks if you plan on taming higher lvls. I tamed a raptor and she is lvl 4 I think, and she isnt all the fast, nor her weight isnt good. When you craft a raptor saddle, and you mount it, raptor might get ecumbered because of your weight. So use little items for newly tamed raptors that are low. All you need if you are a starter, is good agility skills (In rl) for the game, bola, and a spare bola. Stacks of meat, and raptor saddles. But anyways thats how you tame it. I have just posted this 13 mins after I tamedy raptor. Her name is Autumn. REMEBER: Do not try to tame raptors with an otter on shoulder, or a bat. It results in killing your raptor before taming it! Also, try looking for decent colors if you have time. So please, UP this if it is helpful. Lastly, Raptors can be very annoying. Sometimes they mess up your dinos you are still taming. A result in death. But when raptors are tamed, they can be useful. Upgrade weight if you are planning on riding raptor!!!! -TinaZ. R.I.P. Amina, the otter. LvL 25. Died from raptor or titanoboa attack. (I cant remember which attacked her, but she died for me in redwoods. RAPTORS CAN SPAWN THERE!) Hope this helped!)
Just use a stego to kill these you can tame them with a slingshot
To find and tame a raptor just go on quest en put hunt raptor the map would tell you were is the near one. Just be careful they would attack and you wouldn't even notice where they came from.
So the starve timer is 1 minute 25 seconds right? WRONG ITS MORE LIKE 2 MINUTES 50 SECONDS
Where can i find them on ragnorrok
If you find a pack of raptors wait till one of them wanders away or the others die,but make sure it isnt the alpha raotor because you cant tame those.(still be carful because i saw a lone one but it wasn't alone)Then you bola the raptor knock it out with you fists club,of tranq arrows.(traq arrows recomended because it can still attack you)Then feed it some meat,get it a saddle if your high enuogh level and you'll have a great buddy.
I tamed a good level with a slingshot and some bolas
1 make a sligh shot 2 shot it in the face nok it out by standing on a tall rock
Raptors can climb rocks I leaned that the hard way got killed multiple times
1.craft a Bola
2. Find a raptor
3. Bola it
4. Clap with (fist) slingshot or tranq arrow
I encountered three raptors while I was leveling up my sarco and killed the lvl 21 leaving the Alpha mate boosted pair and pulled out my net gun the were reasonable lvls and netted them and knocked out with a couple tranqs and then went to my Sarco and pulled out my prime meats she been harvesting while lvling up and put it in their inventory and boom I got myself She'Ra and Hem'an and then took them back to my base.
And so on, this will happen to my team the next time I go to the swamp:
Your Alpha Advanced Happy (Raptor) lvl 216 got killed by Kaprosuchus lvl 79
Your Flying Happy (Pteranadon) lvl 114 got killed by Sarcosuchus lvl 149
Your Advanced Happy (Raptor) lvl 67 got killed by Titanoboa lvl 86
Your Defense Happy (Carbonemys) lvl 216 got killed by Sarcosuchus lvl 150
Your Happy (Dilophosaurus) lvl 142 got killed by Terror Bird lvl 13
Your Special Forces Happy (Quetzalcoatlus) lvl 289 got killed by Sarcosuchus lvl 150
Your Advanced Happy (Raptor) lvl 126 got killed by Pacacertherium lvl 98
Kills you. Just kills you. Use bola. Kill while trapped. Probably going to die anyways. I saw an alpha once. He was scary.
They are just a pest for me early on because all you need is a slingshot and a bola and you take them if there are more then one then you will some backup for tanking the hits but to get your protection up just try and get a male and female and you have your army
Sincerely lonely dodo
