ARK Gigantoraptor FAQ — Ability, Uses & Spawn Commands

What does the Gigantoraptor do in ARK?
Functions as a mobile nanny: it acts as a feeding trough for baby creatures placed in its saddle slots, can hatch eggs in its inventory bypassing temperature requirements, and uses Baby Call (C key) to locate unclaimed wild babies within stasis range and grant them bonus levels based on the Gigantoraptor's own taming effectiveness and level. Gigantoraptor is a omnivore. Only babies can be obtained — adults cannot be tamed. Taming requires mimicking the baby's random actions (A/S/D keys) within a 2-second window while the adult parent is distracted with thrown fertilized eggs. Killing the parents permanently blocks imprinting on their baby.
How do you use the Gigantoraptor's ability in ARK?
Baby Call is activated with C key — it pings all wild unclaimed babies in range for 1 minute with waypoints. Place eggs directly in inventory for incubation (attach to left/right saddle slot via inventory prompt). Pick up babies with Left Ctrl. Gliding is activated by holding Space while airborne (costs 5 stamina/sec). The Alloparental Pride/Fury combat buff stacks automatically by killing bonded-target hunts within 5 minutes of the bond timer (target is marked passively after bonding). Tame a high-level specimen because bonus levels granted to adopted wild babies scale with the Gigantoraptor's own level multiplied by taming effectiveness. Level Stamina and Weight for transport/nanny roles. Stacking Alloparental Pride (up to 50% bonus damage, 25% XP at max stacks, 10% movespeed at 15+ stacks) makes it a surprisingly competent combat escalator over a long fight. Primary attack gathers Keratin, Organic Polymer, and all meat types; secondary attack gathers berries, wood, and thatch.
What is the Gigantoraptor good for in ARK?
Baby raising (nanny/feeding trough on the move), hatching extreme-temperature eggs (Wyvern, Rock Drake) without air conditioners, wild baby adoption for bonus-level tames, fast ground/water travel with gliding, multi-resource gathering.
What is the Gigantoraptor spawn command in ARK?
Open the console with ~ and enter cheat summon Gigantoraptor_Character_BP_C to spawn a wild Gigantoraptor in ARK: Survival Ascended. For a tamed one at a level you choose, use cheat gmsummon "Gigantoraptor_Character_BP_C" 150. On a server, run enablecheats <ServerAdminPassword> first and keep the cheat prefix.
How do I spawn a tamed Gigantoraptor at a specific level?
Use the builder above, or cheat gmsummon "Gigantoraptor_Character_BP_C" <level>. The number is the pre-tame level. ARK adds up to a 50% taming bonus, so a value of 100 ends up around level 150. To hit a target level, divide it by 1.5. A gmsummon creature still needs a saddle to ride.
Can I set the Gigantoraptor's level and imprint when I spawn it?
Yes. The builder above generates a single SpawnExactDino command that bakes the level and the imprint into one copy-paste line. The saddle comes as a separate cheat gfi command (it can't ride inside the spawn). To set its colours, spawn it first, then use the ARK Dino Color Builder to build the SetTargetDinoColor commands (with a live preview).
What's the difference between summon, SummonTamed and gmsummon?
summon drops a wild Gigantoraptor at a random level. SummonTamed gives you a tamed one but at a random level you can't set. gmsummon spawns it tamed at the level you specify, the one most people want.
Do ARK spawn commands work in single player and on servers?
Yes. In single player the cheat prefix is optional and no password is needed. On a dedicated or non-dedicated session you must run enablecheats <ServerAdminPassword> once, then prefix each spawn with cheat. Set that admin password without hand-editing files using our free ARK config generators.
Are there other versions of the Gigantoraptor?
Yes. Gigantoraptor has 1 spawnable variant (Aberrant Gigantoraptor). Each has its own class name, in the builder's Variant dropdown and the variants table.
