Who else thinks they should add data about the alphas?

Use a bola and use narc arrows, or use a slingshot if you have too.

Just tamed a level 122 on Dead Island no kibble and only a few narcs on me. Had to fight off a scorpion and a sabertooth to keep from it waking up. As the tame was close to finishing I was attacked from behind by two scorpions and they knock me out. As I'm getting attacked by them and I am sure that I am a goner, the raptor tames, gets the them off of me, and kills both of the scorpions. I wait in horror as my consciousness returns, hoping that I am not going to die to a patrol. I didn't, and I turn around and see a Rex almost close enough to aggro me. I put my raptor on follow ran to my raft, and escaped the island as the Rex was chasing me. I named him Saving Grace on the way back, but as I am passing the swamp, a sarco attacks my raft. It knocks my beloved raptor off, and it was swarmed by the sarco and a group of megapiranha. I try to call it to follow, and it dies almost instantly. I am utterly devastated and heartbroken...... :'((

Tame a few 150's, breed them, and you'll be Chris Pratt in no time.

Try to stay in flat open land, this allows you to easily snare the raptor with a bola. Approach slowly until it runs straight at you then throw the bola at it. Once hit with the bola you can easily KO it using any method you choose.

Use parasuar kibble for faster and higher level tames if possible since you need less than 30 kibbles for a perfect 100+ level tame. It may also be easier at lower levels since gathering meat can sometimes be difficult and parasuars are easy tames.

If you hit a level 95 raptor, with a bola. It is very easy to knock out with Tranq arrows and fist. VERY EASY. The only hard part of taming a raptor is the part of just sitting and putting meat and giving it narcos or narcoberries.

Best 2nd tame, get yourself a trike and then a raptor and you have your berry gatherer for herbivore tames/narco berries and the raptor for meat gathering for carnivorous tames. Sorted.

They can not!! open doors, Utter bullshit! However they are good guard dogs.

You don't really need to make the kibble for the raptor, it tames fairly quickly with just raw meat. When you tame them, make sure you're either in a clear, flat area or shooting at it from where it can't get to you. When on flat land, snag it with a bola when it runs directly at you so you have a clear shot. You could either hit it with a slingshot or tranq arrows and it will go down quickly. Watch out for other raptors, they often hang out in packs.

Use kibble, since it's only parasaur kibble, it's easy to get and well worth it so knock out a high level and just use kibble.

Real men wear Raptors for breakfast

The starve target is wayyyyyu off!! Wait until it is like 200 away from starving then fill it up.

Big Dinos around your base? Lure them away with this guy.

Find one and single it out because typically they’re in packs of 3-4. When it’s chasing you, bola it because it runs ina straight line. Then it should be easy to knock it our with a club, slingshot, or even fists depending on level. Or use about 1-3 tranq arrows on a low level and more for a high level

It's very easy to bola one when it charges at you, they just run straight at you and then you bola it in the face. Then go ahead and kill it or tame it.

Bola then hit from the side with a club.
This cannot be screwed up unless you walk into its face.

Beware the raptor territory on "the island map"(standard) You can hardly find any raptors anywhere until u go there then they attack. Four or five at a time ripping you to streads.


When u tame one I suggest upgrading stamina and attack damage. Upgrading speed is pretty pointless for a raptor

They do fit through doorframe of door is 2 high and the doors are facing the way the raptor is trying to get in

Bolas are the best thing to use when taming a raptor.

When knocking out a raptor make sure bola it and stand far enough back that it can't snap at you the best way to knock it out is with tranq arrows or tranq dart bola it and then hit it with tranq arrows/darts to knock it out and to tame it
