Who else thinks they should add data about the alphas?

2 tranq arrows to the face... your welcome

If your levels are too low to craft pteranodon saddle i recommend you riding a raptor

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...... :'((

Just a crossbow, tranq arrow, and a stack o’ meat

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

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

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.

Just use parasaur kibble, it’s fine. Parasaur kibble is too easy to make or come across some parasaur eggs. Parasaur are also easy tames, so you’re not wasting the kibble on a high level raptor. Also it’s easier, as a low level, to get parasaur eggs and make kibble than kill stegos and diplos for prime.

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.

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.

The aberration branch are not affected by the bola... You have been warned.

You need a bola per raptor a slingshot some meat and narcotics

Get it to agro on you and Chase you and bola it. Once it's has a bola slingshot it

Once ko'd put meat starve it feed it


P.s. apply narcotics if needed

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.

If you can use bio-toxin to keep it unconscious it does 80 torpor compared to the 40 torpor that the narcotics do, and even though it say -40 health it only applies to humans.

Bolas do not work on alpha raptors so don’t even try it

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.

To tame a raptor you need raw meat a bola (or trap) and a bat or slingshot. Hide on a rock or in a building where they can’t reach you kill the the pack mates with a bow and knock out the sole survivor

I tamed one literally the day I wrote this! Best starter animal, and ride it for a speed boost. Cannot jump on critters during ride.
