RipRavage Posted November 21, 2018 Share Posted November 21, 2018 I figured I'd share this so everybody could see the proof that Imprinted Gigas can easily solo Red OSDs. My Giga has a base melee of 190 before imprinting and in this video her melee was leveled to around 360. Note that I used a Ascendant 101 armor saddle, but I have done these with primitive saddles, you just lose a lot more health as opposed to the 10k health you drop wearing a ascendant saddle.

AngrySaltire Posted November 21, 2018 Share Posted November 21, 2018 Well, looks like I need to start my giga taming and breeding project then. I guess the issue is not damaging the drop. Would it be worth tagging along a spare giga for a mate boost ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You run the risk of the second giga getting enraged if it gets overwhelmed, I suppose it all depends on the stats you have on your giga as to whether it would be worth it. I transferred mine in from the island, so I already had a decent base melee stat of 190 before imprinting. I mean 2k ish damage vs 2.5 doesn't make much of a difference to me in that situation.

Definitely something I will hopefully try out at somepoint. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I leveled this giga up on literally just red orbital drops, so if you can get an imprinted one to 190 melee you should be able to do it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The advantage I have when I personally ride the Giga is that I can pull her out of the fight when the rage meter starts building, a second unridden giga might draw too much aggro from everything and get swarmed, and if the second giga enrages, so does the one you are riding, so it is a very risky matter.

And finding a Giga with that good melee can be a pain since Giga is the single most best dino in extinction, no one cares about rex, everyone wants gigas...

I would assume since everyone is going after gigas it would be even easier to get your hands on one since you can just trade for their eggs. I'm sure all the alphas already tamed up some decent stock. I was just reading about how people on official already have 450 base melee velonosaurs, so I'm sure somebody has a decent Giga stock at this point.

I've only failed one Red OSD and it was because I was being stupid and not paying attention to my rage meter and two enraged trikes and a few wyverns enraged my giga, but she still survived the fight, I just had to throw my pokeball jump on my flyer and run away until she calmed down. You know if you want the extra little boost in damage and resistance, I think it would make more sense to bring a Yutryannus with you on passive with roaring enabled, thats much safer and equals out to the mate boost.

FluffyDinoPartey Posted November 21, 2018 Share Posted November 21, 2018 But tbh, instead of breeding a giga for 2 weeks I rather go in with 2-3 Meks + snow owl, should work aswell when the hitbug is solved Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Taming a giga with 190 base melee ist WAY harder than getting a 450 melee velona, taming a giga takes alot more time, not to mention knocking it out and finding a highlvl one (bc u cant just kill off lowlvl gigas)^^ taming a velona literally takes 10min on x2, there are like 50 of them at once in the desert and killing lowlvls is rly rly easy €: 55 breeding velonas takes less than 2 days^^ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Find me one on 464, you still owe me 10 element, so. With the rent on those 10, its more like 10.000 element now. So a 200+ giga will suffice, instead of 10.000 element. I'm such a nice guy, I suprise myself sometimes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
