Testing Easier Gigantoraptor Taming Methods - ARK Survival Ascended [E46]
W/ SYNTAC #Dinosaurs #arksurvivalascended

[@Syntac]

Supposedly they patched the ability to trap them. Haven't tried it myself yet but just a heads up

[@Vampire_Bat-]

noooooooo

[@brocktame2819]

That overkill imagine using your own gigantraptor to tame a baby one when parent killed💀💀💀💀

[@Jagdsturm]

Just checked, didn't have any trouble with the tame with the parent in a trap. The baby still played with me multiple times and tamed up. The parent was in the box nearby for the entire duration.

[@gtfahy7626]

I like playing ark but don’t wanna dedicate my weekends and free time getting mutations, do you think I necessarily need them to play the game?

[@Vampire_Bat-]

@@gtfahy7626 They are hard work but deifnetly pay off and are amazing to get overall but to play the game they aren't a 100% necessary must have thing. You can beat bosses and still play easily with no trouble without them

[@carlospadoni4507]

Dude the first one I spyglassed was a 150. Thanks to your video I tamed it perfectly

[@Moon_light17]

Hi carlos

[@user-vo5co5zx3r]

Glad ASA works on Your PC and also glad you were able to tame a 150

[@VZOP-qc5fy]

Nega what💀

[@MichaelWollenberg-dp3zm]

Sick

[@Cat_juice_7274]

Is the gigantoraptor a dlc Dino or not?

[@zakarymcleod1850]

The feathers only work on the female dino you want to breed, and they get used up when an egg is laid.

[@igorfrocha2]

damn u beat me to it! Lol

[@phoenixfire7903]

I posted this on the previous video but I think it would be helpful to post it again, sorry. I did testing on the Gigantoraptor and here are my findings. If the parent gets too far from the nest the baby can no longer be tamed/imprinted, but if you bring it back, for example with a Rhynio, you can continue the taming. Creatures bonded to Gigantos have 10% damage resistance while within 100 meters. It may be that cryopoding messes with the bonded status, not sure. You can have at least 12 creatures bonded to one Giganto, haven't tested if it can be more than 12. The alloparenting buff is a 2% increase in damage and a 1% increase in xp gains for the gigantoraptor per stack, up to 25 times. 5 stacks are obtained from bonding with a baby (killing the creatures with a red marker) and one stack is obtained each time a bonded creature gets a kill. This means if you take a Gigantoraptor into a boss fight, as long as all of your boss fighters are bonded to it they will have 10% damage resist and, as long as minions are continuously killed, the Giganto maintains a 50% damage increase. At 15 stacks the buff also gives the Giganto 10% increased movement speed. The feather plucked from a Giganto is determined by its base stats. The highest base stat of the creature is the type that the feather will be (oxygen, melee, etc) and the percentage chance is calculated like so: 55 + (roughly .1342 * the base stat) up to a cap of 75. So if a Giganto's highest stat is melee at 50, the feather from it would be 55 + (.1342 * 50) = 55 + 6.71 = 61.71, so a 61.71% chance to take the higher melee stat of the parents. Placing a feather in the inventory of the mother will cause it to be consumed at the point of egg laying/beginning gestation for mammals and do exactly as the feather says; increase the chance for the higher stat being taken for that egg/baby. I thought it was either parent but after seeing Syntac put it in the father's inventory and it not be consumed I have to imagine it only works in the mother's inventory. Hope this helped!

[@th3gr1zzlyk1ng8]

Question, could you use multiple feathers for one egg or is it only one at a time?

[@TheEleonore18]

so this means the highest possible percentage on a feather would be 65,065 % what if you bred them up and increased the base stats? would that work to get a higher percentage

[@phoenixfire7903]

@@th3gr1zzlyk1ng8 One at a time, I had 2 Gigantoraptors breeding with 4 different feathers in the female's inventory and it consumed one seemingly at random, might have been first one in order but definitely wasn't the highest percentage one.

[@phoenixfire7903]

@@TheEleonore18 The highest percentage a feather can have is 75%. In order to get this you would need at least (75-55)/.1342 = 149, so 149 points into a single stat. Any stat above 149 would still give a 75% feather. Hope this clears up any confusion.

[@TheRealDeclou]

Bro cooked

[@MariaSky7579]

Aww, rip white Giganto, death via starving is such a painful way to go. She was so beautiful, too🥲

[@Arie420]

The gigaraptor feathers bring some insane QoL to breeding I love it

[@markbunst5961]

For real, even with upped rates and some mods my friend still took a week to get a base pair on his rhinos. This will be amazing for breeders

[@avaavocado9257]

Yea!! I’m so excited for the center when it comes out

[@ichangguso8332]

How is that even breeding stuff? Mine just upgrading babys

[@hollz1843]

​@@ichangguso8332because the baby takes on the higher stat instead of you throwing hundreds of eggs to get yr base set. There's other ways too but that's all I can think of ATM

[@hitavi4965]

Unrelated to the video but I just noticed Syntac passed 1.5 million subs, that's just absolutely unreal! 1 mil wasn't that long ago and when I started watching back when Rag came out I think Syn only had maybe like 200-300k subs, so it's just absolutely awesome to see how much the channel has grown and it honestly couldn't be more deserved, lits of respect for youtubers who actually edit their own videos cus that's the actual hard part.

[@drasticbubble1223]

Bro I started watching so long ago that it was a challenge to find his channel every time because it would autocorrect to syntax and I could never find him lol that was like season 1 or 2 of the island and I think he has like 30k subs he lived on a mountain

[@crazlady8648]

I wonder if it's possible to knock wild adults an farm feathers as well. Anyone know?

[@scath_mac_tire2735]

You can get the egg into the basket by left-clicking the egg in gigaraptor inventory and in middle you'll see "put egg into left/right basket" it incubates the egg and you can hatch it inside the basket too. Also, try jumping from your base no using elevator needed you will get pretty far only with the "glide"

[@Sam.el-mexicano_5]

Yo syntac the feathers do get used frome what i saw in rasclark vid he put the feather on the female than after a egg hatch it dissapear i could be wrong but still try it

[@chiron0948]

It's true I also watch that video and the feather gets use just after female lay a egg

[@skittleman5630]

this taming mechanic is super unique and gives me hope that wildcard does still care about the game and not just money

[@IsThatDrak]

for wildcard yeah, but its basically ripped from "Spore" lol

[@kimy770]

More or less. I still don't want to create any hopes. Remember the new creatures are being added because FANS developed them and they gave the ideas. Wildcard sometimes modifies the creatures, but still. Not that I don't like the gigantoraptor, it is a very nice creature

[@Jedibigfoot]

I'd love to know if the gigantoraptor feather works with the rhyniognatha taming if you put the feather in the dinosaur you get impregnated. as they act as one of the "parents"

[@thunderbasilisk1352]

So many ways to get a Gigantoraptor. I like using the Billboard method. Walling it off is best if the nests in a hostile area to.

[@tjlove2876]

Hey Syntac your videos are so inspirational. I can’t wait to see more of them.

[@silentg24]

Great video, I played around with using the gigantoraptor to claim orphan ones, works easy enough but doesn't receive the additional taming levels you get from taming it the normal way.

[@lynknight21]

Great video syntac so much great information thanks 😊😊

[@embuikema]

I wonder if you can put multiple fearhers (like one for each stat) into a breeder to pass down multiple best stats

[@LtZetarn]

It only consume 1 feather per breeding session at random if you put more than 1 feather. So better have what thats you need to pass on.

[@Jeozas]

Oh thank God Syntac's back to ARK, KZbin is fun again !

[@ridgemartin1309]

Ong

[@BlazeD_7]

Love the Pokémon breeding reference. Takes me back

[@nubbyboah]

I had trouble getting one to spawn in, but eventually after I purged a mod I suspected of tampering with therispawns, and a dino wipe later found a 150 and tamed it up!

[@Justin-xp8vz]

Came out of school to see my fav arktuber posted!

[@Jyharri]

I did try moving the parent Gigantoraptor far away from the nest and baby with a Rhynio but the baby just teleports to the parent after it's moved a certain distance.

[@1EyeLewis88]

Syntac making Ark content again the world is a better place.😁👍🏻

[@Dragonguy9839]

Hey sntac I love your content I've watched it for years

[@PympinPlays]

You can def get saddles for them, one of my tribemates got a 79.6 MC saddle for one about 10 minutes into her logging in

[@noahandellagaming2323]

Where did she find the gigaraptor saddle?

[@skol3491]

Man your such an awesome youtuber, whenever i wonder something about Ark your the first that comes to mind! Im not a pro in Ark im pretty good at the basic beginning game survival but have never delved into caves, beat bosses, or done anything much other than survive and tame. I was looking at all your playlists of Ark and was searching for one that is just basic Ark Survival Evolved, no mods, just a playthrough of the game and how to do different hings, tips etc. i found one like it but it was 2018 and idk if back then things were different in survival, crafting, etc. Anybody know an up to date playthrough that matches what im looking for?

[@maxionsoundcloud]

I require more Ark videos! SYNTAC!

[@pj3355]

bro went from posting twice a day to twice a month love the content tho bro❤❤❤

[@didzee3720]

I wonder if tek force field around the nest would work for taming.

[@HiMyNameIzJake]

I would love to see you finish this series on The Island before a new map comes out but I understand if you don't

[@mrblank4616]

I wonder if that reroll will work with the carch when it wants cravings

[@MrGarsin]

but you dont get bonus levels by using the gigantoraptor to imprint like if you use their nest tame

[@spartanpndz9804]

Using the bonding ability it might be good to raise boss rexes with and bring them into arenas or war gigas for pvp

[@mechametalhead]

I would 100% watch a breakdown of the Gigantoraptor. ❤

[@deathblades6257]

this video is by far the best video

[@Devdor]

What resolution are you playing at syn? Cause my UI for the gigantoraptor is on the sides of my skill bar properly. Wonder if that’s a thing or if you have your skill bar bigger for some reason.

[@1EyeLewis88]

Explained the feather thing in a way, even my dumb understood. 😂 It's all round, decent dino. i was not excited, but I have been surprised. Let's hope the future dino votes are the same quality.

[@icequeenfreya2193]

I love watching your videos it always helps me and I always recommend your channel when I can! I’ve been watching since around Valguro’s release and it’s helped me a lot both as a ark player but also as a amazing pass time and distraction sometimes ^^

[@drasticbubble1223]

Alr im ketching up on ark videos now since my game decided to finish downloading the patch from like 4 weeks ago lets goooo yayayay ark moment so fun :)

[@redghost2463]

Other people may have mentioned it but the innate breeding chance is 55% towards the higher stat so while 1% increase vs a 4% increase doesn't sound massive it is actually a decently large change towards helping you, doesn't seem like it will be crazy for mutation stacking since apparently it uses it in the mother, but getting your original breeding pair can definitely be sped up

[@GgmGamingAdventures]

If you get a mutation onto a female baby, you could work on using the feather to get the mutation to a male baby. Of course you could always try and keep breeding the main breeders to get the mutation again but on a male instead.

[@GuardIAN4546B]

Syntac are you gonna plan an ultimate ascension similar to you’re ultimate ark if so that’ll be cool but if not I understand

[@remy6384]

I doubt this would work, but have you tried refreshing the baby's imprint option with a different Gigantoraptor adult?

[@xsn3rgy867]

Have you tried using the feather on the female breeder? Wonder if it gets used up from her laying the egg or starting gestation. Also you can check to see what buffs your Dino has under the ancestor list tab

[@David-xc1mn]

Can you put different feathers together for multiple stat transfers?

[@Rexthedargon4824]

Love your videos and I didn’t know what your imprint setting are. By the way, I feel like one of them could be named Mother Theresa.

[@aunyua5790]

Maybe the red baby needed more battle bonding than the others since you didn’t tame it with the nest dance (thus less bonding than you did with the others)

[@VionTilL]

Hey! Was wondering what your specs were, really want to see what i need to run ark ascended

[@23Raind]

Well breeding up boss slayers, and building up mutation lines will be a lot easier now.

[@BazaarClan]

What are your breeding/ imprinting settings?

[@maxionsoundcloud]

We need a little base tour. I made my base in the same spot and I made it a little bigger than yours. One more floor. Huge building. Still an elevator in the same spot! Love this location! I want a lil base tour too

[@turkelton4413]

Hey Syntac when you get the chance maybe try to put 2 Giga Babys on the Gigantoraptor, seeing them grow in there must be looking hilarious xD

[@waveclaw]

I'm glad is paused playing on my breeding world while this was being released. This will change so much about large breeding for stats. You will be able to easily mix final parents and make perfect male and females so much easier based on the mother-consumes-feather mechanic. And moving a mutated stat from a female back to a male during a partially bad generation gets much easier than the piddly 26% chance now.

[@nitouscobra4772]

To pick my curiosity, I wonder if the feather can be based off of the highest stat or like the percentage of how high one set is compared to the others

[@RavenVI]

idk if its been mentioned by anyone yet, but if one has a tamed giganto raptor, it can imprint on orphan babies meaning if a parent of one dies, and you have one of your own, you can use your gigantoraptor to imprint on the orphaned one. I found this very useful for when i find a nest but the parent ends up getting killed.

[@rougesolider88]

You put the feather in a mother dino that is breeding it will consume the feather and has high chance to pass that state on feather to baby that hatches

[@SDLowe-ci7wp]

Haven't had the chance to play the mod yet but maybe attack it like how the maewing picked up babies

[@nicholaserwin988]

Does the mod work on svartelfheim right now? I havent seen a single one spawn yet

[@joehannes-gaming]

Soo the feather has to be consumed by the female and i think you might be able to pick things up with holding R maybe ?

[@jax9954]

The gigant is a mod so it’s technically not on any map it can be on all maps I hope that is not the case for the other creatures I want them to be special to their maps

[@jax9954]

Oh thx that clear up a lot

[@iceymatthome6860]

I mean if wildcard doesn’t add mods for the creatures they add I’m sure someone will so u can bring them to other maps

[@t3xtn0t35]

Hi Syntac, could you upload a video explaining all its features?

[@IsThatDrak]

is it possible the raptor can only pickup the egg like imprinting, target and pickup?

[@maxhenderson8038]

Are you going to do the bosses at some point in this series

[@arsenalwyvern]

Makes me wonder how the Yi Ling is going to stack up. Outside of being an early game rock drake The gigantoraptor looks like it takes the top spot for travel mounts.

[@Joe-ir6sl]

Syntac heads up just bought my first gaming pc got the ascended from apex

[@Bardor_Stonebreaker]

What are your settings for baby stough?

[@Schnygg2]

I think the feather do get used, but only if you transfer a stat and since your breeders have identical stats it doesnt get consumed, so it might only be useful to breed out perfect stat breeders. Hope im making sense :D The reason i say this is because it got consumed in raasclarks vid and he wasnt using perf stat breeders.

[@Bonehead0100]

Ok to get egg in basket u put in the birds invitory and in the center toward the bottom after clicking on egg there should be a option to put egg in basket

[@adziak12]

Can you get the mods in this game like the previous ?

[@bishopsylvester8120]

what nasa pc do you use to run ASE?

[@AsapRockyOG]

I bred and mutated some gigantoraptors and my main one ended up a really vibrant blue and orange, named it sonic haha

[@kotkotzilla8772]

im a simple man, i see a syntac video, i click

[@Bananaking9092]

what is your server settings for baby rasing and imprint

[@TheCowboyfan4u]

I wonder if you can stack multiple feathers of same boost

[@TheDodoKing1234]

I'm wondering if these creatures are useful for boss fights. Is 17 boss fighters+ pig, yuty and giga chicken more effective than 18 boss fighters +pig and yuty.

[@johnspringfield6102]

I pulled a journeyman Gigantoraptor saddle from a booster yellow drop. I haven’t been able to find a single Gigantoraptor though

[@dinmintgaming2476]

Big fan mate

[@countrygirlup1]

Does anyone know what the glow Wallaby and any other glow dinos eat to tame? I can't find anything about them

[@Aidenthegobbleygourd]

When will there be more island videos?

[@shadowheart8279]

A curiosity i have is will the feathers stack for instance will 5 health feathers stack or just the highest % out of those 5 and will the feathers only count if carried by the parent and the young or just the parent. If anyone knows don't tell me.

[@zhenzerks1376]

I think you can glide with the gigantoraptor if you hold the jump button

[@JellyME]

Anyone know what the cryo pod mod hes using ? i cant deploy any dinos away if im too far from the cryo fridge;..

[@billjaywarr6509]

If it’s a mod can it be put on other maps?

[@philmckrackup8496]

Im on ps5 and the only map i have in ascended is the island, how do you get these tames and maps

[@Beelcibub]

if you level up your gigantorapter in like all health then claim a wild baby the baby gets a percent of that also in its health think it also works with mutation kinda like the bug

[@JohnnyToledo1]

I guess a good way to test the feather percentage would be breed 100 babies and see how many per 100 get the good stat although heavily reliant on RNG if you did that a few times and compare them to the previous batch number-wise maybe you can see a pattern

[@cyriell]

I mean it doesnt matter if its heavy rng if you want to know the numbers as long as you have a good sample batch to test it on,100 gives you a decent idea 1000 gives the right number (or at the very least extremely close to the actual %) since were talking ark 1000 breed sample size is good if were talking mmo probably gotta go 5-10k sample size especially with the likes of runescape black desert etc

[@PlayerSkillFTW]

Inb4 "Well guys, the Quetzal died in a cryopod 😕".

[@salisburysteak6170]

I don’t mind the can’t bring pods away from base without a mod but getting rid of the change what your baby wants is kinda dumb

[@m.a.ddragon939]

The babies tell you to kill things? That sounds messed up lol

[@infinity_lordgaben8246]

So after doing some research, the feathers do get used up, you need to put them in the female dino's inventory for them to work, so without a reliable way to get high percentage feathers its not really worth it.

[@zakarymcleod1850]

The feather percentages seem to be based on the gigaraptor's base stats.

[@gatopelado_br7099]

What's your server settings?

[@Hughes12]

If the Giganto is a lower lvl than the baby you are trying to imprint It wont let you. Your Giganto has to be a higher lvl so you can't just get a low lvl one to instantly get a higher lvl one

[@ashleyjohnsonjujitsu]

The trailer pic was probably trolling by swapping the egg and baby stealing/basket roles

[@WaterFox0625Gaming]

Syntac the feather does get consumed for it to work you have to put it in a female😂
