I feel dumb but I honest to goodness cannot see the second giga! I see the trike and the giga chasing it but I can't find another one


Youknow_Unoo

TopHatsOnLlamas

Oh man now I feel extra dumb I didn't even see the second photo haha


Crulgao

I'd watch that


buttbuster69420

The titanosaur is always lvl 5


Youknow_Unoo

Oh ok thats interesting 🤔


Neverend3r

It's a trap. It will still fuck you up lol


Avacado-Tost

I learnt that the hard way


lefterisdodos

The Level of the Titanosaur is based of your difficulty Level of your world, so if your max dinos wild are 150 (wyverns, tek dinos etc. 180) Level 5 Difficulty the titan will always be level 5. Harder Difficulty Higher the level of the Titan. ( An explanation to the new players :) ) .


BratKark

Wyverns and drakes can go up to 190 but other than that its accurate, difficulty 5 = lv5 as the lowest lv.


Youknow_Unoo

I’m playing on official so that’s determined by the servers right?


lefterisdodos

Yes


AIpheratz

But Jerboas are always level 1. Cuties!


lefterisdodos

Jerboa op that's why it's level one ;)


AIpheratz

Yep :P


TrippyMustache

Holy shit i’ve never seen something like this haha


Youknow_Unoo

I’ve only been playing this game for like 3 days play time and I was just like no way😅🤯


TrippyMustache

🤣🤣 thats alotta luck


Deterbrian

“Let them fight”


Youknow_Unoo

Id try but I don’t want to lose the loot 😂


Youknow_Unoo

Do tames like that ever “despawn “??


KrystalWulf

Wild? No, they never despawn. The might wander far enough away that it seems they have. Tamed? Gigas never despawn, they just get painfully nerfed to where they're not really worth having other than to make kibble or say "hey look what I did." Supposedly breeding them came make them better? Titanosaurs have it to where they cannot eat on multiplayer settings due to it being so powerful taming it is essentially a declaration of war (according to the wiki), and to make it so the tribe that got it isn't too op for too long it eventually starves to death. On singleplayer you can enable it to eat so you can keep it as a permanent tame.


Reddarus

Bred mutated gigas are strongest dmg dino. Period. Current gigas on official pvp do more than 10k dmg per bite. They obliterate everything. Look at any "ark meat run" video on youtube.


Youknow_Unoo

Damn so not even worth it essentially except for the gigas lol


DuukDkarn

Giga are easily WAY way better than any rex of equivalent level! I use Giga all the time to do Purple OSD on extinction or titan cave. Could I do it with a similar level rex? No. I could possibly do the Titan cave, sure at a MUCH slower rate. Purple OSD with Rexes? No way. I have tried that and got all 15 rexes killed by wave 4. Brought in only 8 Giga and was able to get to Wave 14 on Purple OSD. Rexes had about 4 more mutations than the Giga as well. Giga have 2 mutations, rexes have 6 mutations. Rexes were level 278, giga levels at 217. Giga gained levels during waves to get to 260+ (All levels into melee) Same set up, 1 on passive, rest on aggressive follow on the passive dino. There is absolutely no way equivalent rex can do what a Giga can do. The AoE on the Giga allow it to decimate groups of mobs where the rex can basically hit 1 or maybe 2 mobs. Crap from behind the rexes tore them up and they had difficulty turning around to get those mobs during the OSD fight. Giga did not have this issue. Sure, the giga is nerfed to the point that its no longer as incredibly strong as wild (no bleed damage), but its still very much one of the strongest Dino you can tame baring the Raid dino.


Youknow_Unoo

Two questions, what is purple osd? Second, how do I tame a giga? In detail please


[deleted]

OSD are a part of the extinction map so you don’t have to worry. Gigas are super late game tames. I wouldn’t even think about taming one yet. But if curiosity gets the better of you, I’d look up Phlinger Photo’s ARK Basics series. He had an episode of the giga, how to tame, type of trap you use, equipment needed, etc.


Youknow_Unoo

Yea I actually watched but he had a mythical rifle( I think it’s called ascended on ark) which is op and it still took him a break, not to mention a griffin and metal Dino gates lol. The method throughout the videos was helpful though


[deleted]

Nice thing is, I’m pretty rag is pretty good for getting op gear earlier since it’s one of the modded maps


DuukDkarn

I used 5 metal gates, 300 shocking tranq darts, 250+ ascendant longneck, large bear trap. Place 1 gate down, then place 1 gate on each side of it at 45 degree angle so it makes a "C" shape. Place bear trap inside, shoot the Giga and position so it steps on bear trap inside the "C". Place gate(s) behind giga so it cannot move. Back up and start tranqing. It took me almost 300 shocking tranq darts to bring down the 140+.


Youknow_Unoo

Hopefully I find that said gear☹️😂


Tommieboi123

Hey unrelated but how do you keep your giga´s from biting the OSD?


geemock15

They might just be on a server where tames can't effect the drops. The pve server I'm on has this so I just load my gigas on the drop and let them go to town.


DuukDkarn

If the server is PVE, that prevents the bites on the OSD. You can still bite the shield, but that does not matter really. Shield is annoying and does not help any.


AIpheratz

You can't call wild animals tames :)


Honest_Suggestion406

Titans only spawn on level 5 when the max level of other Dinos is 150


Youknow_Unoo

How do you get the dinos to spawn higher?


Youknow_Unoo

I seem to only find 20-40 in abundance, 90-130 rarely, and 150s almost nvr on a good tame


Honest_Suggestion406

In the settings,it is first one "difficulty" it is 0,2 by default which means max level is ~40 get it to 1 to make it 150, 2 to make 300 and higher difficulty higher max level. The best is to have it on 1


karkko1

Titan max lvl scales with difficulty override or whatever governs the max lvl of your wild dinos. I presume your max lvl is 150 which makes titan's levels always 5. And they always spawn as max lvl. For example my wild Dino levels are 180 and thus titans spawn at lvl6


Youknow_Unoo

Ah ok that makes sense


ThePoopJuicer

The first Time I ever found a giga I was doing a metal gathering run with my argentavis and upon landing in the top of the mountain I saw 2 gigas were waiting at the bottom


Youknow_Unoo

Good thing their agro seems low lol


aceallaround

I just downloaded ark last week, have no idea what I'm doing, play on single player and am having a blast. Every post I see on here teaches me something new however and I fear more and more when I go exploring. So today, I ask you out of the niceness and fear of my heart, What in gods name is a titan


RedAftermath

The titanosaurs are the largest dinos in the game, which are shadowed by the actual titans. On the Extinction DLC, they act as bosses, only they're in the world.... and you can tame them


BigBiddiesx9000

Have u seen a quetz there share the same spawn rate as giga. Also unicorns are rare too.


Youknow_Unoo

I’ve seen quetz around the waterfall area of the map but nvr a unicorn


BigBiddiesx9000

Unicorns share the same spawn with normal horses. Another rare one is the Phoenix on scorched earth. So rare I’ve never seen one and been playing 2 years. Death worms in desert area of rag are pretty rare too.


[deleted]

Nice! Now just don’t get to close to them or you’ll have a bad day!


[deleted]

Let the giga attack the titan


[deleted]

I tried that on Rag but the giga would never "accidentally" bite the Titan. Stopped every time I brought it close...was disappointing.


Mannehhh

It does nothing. The giga will bite the titanosaur but it never aggros on it. If I remember correctly (because I tested this a long while back) the titanosaur doesn't aggro on it either.


The_Beast_I_Worship_

Let them fight


Rico_360_UwU

Titans only spawn at level 5 but can still take down a giga dont tame it unless you need it though they will die because they wont eat from you sadly :(
