Tips & Strategies from the iOS & Android apps
On ume and pc if a baby/juvenile/adolescent giga dies in front of its parents, or it is dealt too much damage in a short time (heart meter at the bottom fills up fully), then the giga(s) will be instantly enraged, dismounting you if you were riding it then roaring with glowing yellow eyes, then if theres any wild or tamed creatures nearby it will get aggressive and attack them with double damage. You will also most likely fall off the giga onto the ground and will probably get 1 shot by fall damage or your own giga then after 20 seconds your giga will be okay but can't say the same about any tames/structures not made of stone or metal nearby
On old mobile though if you ride a tamed giga off a cliff, a baby/juvenile/adolescent giga dies in front of its parents, or it is dealt too much damage in a short time, then the giga(s) will also be instantly enraged, dismounting you then roaring with glowing yellow eyes, then if theres any wild creatures nearby it will attack them and any tames nearby... not set to passive will also follow the giga and attack whatever it's attacking since it technically has its aggression set to aggressive. You will also fall off the giga onto the ground and will have to chase after your giga and your tames. After 20 seconds have passed and you have found your giga clumped up besides it there will be a big mess of tames... that are alive and probably have their aggression level set to neutral or attack target.
The things you need to tame a giga:-
1)Flyer (recommending an argy).
2)4-5 dinosaur metal gateways.
3)1-2 large bear traps.
4)10x soothing balm if your playing on mobile.
5)Your KO weapon (most recommended are ascendant longneck rifle or ascendant crossbow).
6)Your KO ammo (bring a decent amount).
7)Taming food of your choice (most recommended is raw prime meat or kibble if you can).
8)Decent amount of narcotics or bio toxin.
FIND GIGA: gigas usually spawn at mountains. On the island try looking around the volcano or the two mountains in the snow area.
SET YOUR TRAP: take 3 of your metal gateways and make this shape \_/ then put a large bear trap or 2 in the middle. It’s easier if you build the trap on flat ground.
TRAP THE GIGA: get the giga to follow you and make it go inside the trap, then make sure it’s caught in the bear trap. When it’s stuck in the bear trap go behind it and complete the trap with another gateway. The final shape of the trap looks like a Trapezoidal.
KO THE GIGA: even a low level giga has a lot of torpor and it drops fast so keep shooting no matter what. It’s recommended for a tribe-mate to help you.
START FEEDING: put the food in the giga’s inventory and keep an eye on it’s torpor.
I hope this was helpful 😊
Many a tribe have been foolish enough to think they could fight a wild giga with a tamed and ended up with a dead giga. Don't be them.
I was looking to metal to make a saddle then I said to my brother “i am going to tame a giga” as a joke. Not even 10 seconds later a level 55 giga came into view. KEEP IN MIND WE ARE ONLY LEVEL 40!! We are gonna tame it tomorrow with arrows since we don’t have tranq darts😂 wish us luck!
Make 4 metal dino gates and 1 large bear trap. Place three frames and door into an incomplete square and the large bear trap in the I between them. Lure the Giga into the trap and while its trapped place 4th down to make the square. Then just light it up with tranqs
If it is the Giga you want to flee,
It is harder on land you will see,
Get on a bird and get to the sky,
So you survive and don't die,
Get out of there and let it be.
Just lure into a metal gate set ups some plant Xs and it will knock out you welcome
