Taming & KO Tips

How do I tame a raptor? Tips and strategies on taming and knocking out a raptor.
When you see a raptor bola it and knock it out.
[MOBILE] I consider raptors a must have tame at early game. A decent level raptor will help you start clearing caves and a pack of them will allow you to delete bigger stronger predators. And, for as long as they don't pounce, taming them is a breeze.
You gonna need: 1 bola, 40 raw meat (a lvl 150 raptor needs just 26 to be tamed, that's being generous) 10 tranq arrows if using crossbow and 20 if using bow.
Get close enough for them to agro on you, start spinning your bola, throw it when they're close enough to be guaranteed hit. Shoot tranqs at them, AIM FOR THE HEAD, you'll save arrows and time.
After knocking them out, check they hunger stat, you wanna wait until it's less than half. Go do something useful and come back later. When it finally is below half, give them the raw and the taming meter will be full in seconds. Now just it home and love it.
These things are like the alpha of all the early game tames. They are great pack dinos, they can jump, and, if you want one of these and you’re a starter, all you need is to find a low level one, get a bola and club, and beat it till it’s knocked out.
Get it’s attention by shooting it with a bow and stone arrow. Next, as it is charging at you, pull out a bola and when it gets close, bola it. Then, hit it with tranq arrows. (3-7) Finally, the easy way to take it is narcroberries and raw meat.
Use a bola and hit it with a club
Bola then hit from the side with a club.
This cannot be screwed up unless you walk into its face.
Get a bola and use it on the raptor and knock it out with club and raptors are great for beginners because you unlock bola at lvl7 and club at lvl2
If you are go to tame a raptor at night, make a distance because they will attack suddenly so, make a distance to dodge his attack and go to a perfect place to tame a raptor.
how to tame a raptor for beginners!
step 1:craft a few bolas(about 3) in case u miss or there is a pack
step 2:stand on a high rock (make sure the raptor can’t climb up)
step 3:throw the bola
step 4:shoot with tranq arrow+bow/crossbow
step 5:feed it raw meat or kibble(recommended for higher lvls)
kibbles:simple or parasaur kibble

WARNINGS: the raptor is very fast and can pounce on u
u might need bio toxin/narcotics/narco berry if higher lvl
hope my tip is helpful ☝️ so the noobs can see!😁
You can also Just bow It with the narcodic Arrow
You can tame this early game at lowly level 8 using bola
bola it then go to its butt and whack it with a club. use those dodos to your left and boom you got a raptor. tamed a lvl 174 tek raptor like this i think you can handle it
I am having a very hard time taming a Raptor right now because when I bolla it as soon as I hit or shoot it it escapes the bola and attacks me normally killing me even when it has ten bolas around it’s legs so The only way I am able to tame it is by standing on rocks and shooting at it from there . I am playing on an island by myself at the easy level if that helps.
Just build a small stone shed near a raptor/raptors, make them follow you in there bola them if needed. Get out of shed, close door and just slingshot them till knocked out, and go back in and tame them. Stone shed all with windowed walls ofcourse.
Raptors are hard to tame unless you know what you’re doing
Tame 3 raptors using bolas and tranq arrows. They will shred pretty much everything
You can go up on rocks and shoot to knockout
Can someone tell me what the cuddling means on the baby raptors?!!!!
Use a Pteranodon and fly above it, just out of reach of the jump. Lure it into a small dino trap, maybe 2 by 2, with a dinosaur gate, regular sized, and doorframes for walls so you can get out. The raptor will chase you and get stuck on the frames, and you can shoot it. Enjoy your tamed raptor! Vote up pls
