I discovered another way to trap a giga that is a lot safer and virtually fool proof. I cannot find the video that show me this wonder, but I have used it on several occasions and have never had any problems. All you need is 6 metal triangle foundations, six metal door frames, six metal triangle roof tiles (not the ceiling tiles, the inclined roof tiles, and two thatch foundations. Find a level spot near the giga you want to tame, place your first triangle foundation. Lay the two thatch foundations next to the metal triangle foundation, and place the second triangle foundation on the other end. Repeat until all six foundations have been laid. Place the metal door frames (cheaper than metal walls) on top of the foundations, then the metal triangle roof tiles on top of the door frames. MAKE SURE THE ROOF TILE IS SLANTED UP. Once this is set up, bait your giga and lead him into the circle. he will be able to step into the circle, but due to the unique shape of the triangle roof tiles, he will not be able to leave. Tranq at your leisure, and voila, you have a tamed giga. If I can find the video explaining all this, I will post a link. (30 seconds lateer): Found it. th-cam.com/video/gt3YVJQ9mYU/w-d-xo.html&ab_channel=TheJohtunnBandit
Guys use hatch frame roofs instead of foundations to save materials where you can. If you need to make ramps, use thatch foundations under the hatch frame you need to place it in
Actually an very good tip is tame a stego then upgrade health a lot then use cross bow when riding then hit bronto allowing you to tame it but this isn't efficient cuz if you're close to shore and you're dino is facing to the shore the bronto will swim to the sea ...
To save resources if you want use stone fence foundations and stone doorframes depending on the dinos you can space them out some you would set up 4 fence foundations and 3 doorframes 1,2, or 3 high set a bear trap once caught add the doorframes to the back and you save a lot more resources but note for most dinos this will work but not every dino will be trapped this way so be mindful
Hey I’m playing on abberation and I wanted to ask if the trap for the trike would work on a sarco. I built mine 2 by 2 though so I’m not sure if a sarco would fit.

great video! you can actually make a rex trap with just 14 stone pillars, definitely the easiest and cheapest way to do it but these are all tremendous
The amount of knowledge I gained from watching this guy is unreal
same, and still learning!
And then you walk outside and realize you don’t know nothing.

Thank u god
Just started with Ark, I didnt realise you can trap dino's! I was having a nightmare taming anything!
Helped soo much!
i built a 3x3x2 stone trap over a raft, it works 100%, you can re use it as many times as you wan, and its useful as well to transport large dinos.

You can use the argie trap for nearly all dinos that fit through a dino gate
One thing i do with my argent trap is i put a ceiling on it incase the argent gets out.
You can use an unwanted pteranadon to keep dino distracted while you close the gate. I did it for an argy and it worked beautifully.

I bet Managarmr would aggro on a Giga...
Manas: so cool when tamed, so dumb when wild.
Thanks for the help
You can turn off Ark's music audio while recording a video so that you don't have to set the music so high.
Capt fat dog is awesome. He's the reason I was able to catch my first argue when I barely had anything
Pteranodons can fit through double door frames as well
keep it up you keep me playing thist game
1:33 how do you get the dino out?
if your asking about the trap with the steps used as a ramp then you demolish 1 end of the trap to get the dino out or use a cryopod
@@melin1969Seems wasteful, probably better to just add a gate at the opposite end of the ramp
Thanks
Last Bronto was amazing
Actually an very good tip is tame a stego then upgrade health a lot then use cross bow when riding then hit bronto allowing you to tame it but this isn't efficient cuz if you're close to shore and you're dino is facing to the shore the bronto will swim to the sea ...
Noice traps
How do you get the dino out of the 2nd trap?
You can actually build a giga trap with only 3 metal gates to save resources
Actually with 14 metal pillar and u cant fail it cause u dont need to place anything behind the dino after it gets in
To save resources if you want use stone fence foundations and stone doorframes depending on the dinos you can space them out some you would set up 4 fence foundations and 3 doorframes 1,2, or 3 high set a bear trap once caught add the doorframes to the back and you save a lot more resources but note for most dinos this will work but not every dino will be trapped this way so be mindful
Well done video mate quick and simple 👍
Another great video mate. peace.
Thx ! nice video !
I didn’t have to use an army trap since I got rlly lucky and got a 586% crossbow and could knock a 130 out in 3 hits
you can actually use metal billboards instead of metal gateways. Much cheaper and easier.
Awesome
If a giga doesn't care about you you can try carrying a wild dino (use flyers to carry the wild dino)
I am level 26. I’m almost done building the second trap.
Cj is the only guy I watch for ark. I love listening to his commentary
I use cliffs not traps 😆
dumb question but does anyone know what map this is?
and it doesnt hurt to make a trap extra long i made a trap earlier i made it longer for sarcos
the cool thing about this is that you can trap the tropeognathus
Hey I’m playing on abberation and I wanted to ask if the trap for the trike would work on a sarco. I built mine 2 by 2 though so I’m not sure if a sarco would fit.
Yep it would
@@Cjthecheesedj thank you. I’m not a very good ark player and I really wanted to start taming carnivours and stuff.
Lol I actually gotten an argy because it was in my base and manage to knock it out without a trap cuz It got stuck in tree same with theriz
Baryonx can also break stone. As of recently
I used to use loads of large bear traps. Super expensive tho
I'understand now why my trap didn't worked beacouse I made it of wood and the spino killed me
The Griffin *Spawns*
Cj *Smack*
The Griffin "Ya Bastard"
Also the Griffin "O Giga!, Let me fight it!"
Giga who is literally trapped in a small area "Why?"
Cj *Facepalm*
Anyone wanna play ark together
PS4?
That giga trap is so expensive that i feel bad for ppl using it
I can’t find the stone ramp
I literally see these all over servers now.
Diplo trying to destroy the trap to make the trike escape
great video! you can actually make a rex trap with just 14 stone pillars, definitely the easiest and cheapest way to do it but these are all tremendous
So I caught one...how to get it out..
Why you call it a giggar? Its giga dude lol
I tame rexes and spinos just by standing on my quetz platform.
Who needs traps smh.
What if they run or if the Quetz loses stamina?
or you can do it for free like i did got a 135 if u have a griffin just use it lol
Life saver
Why do I feel like he’s selling things to me
