Lightning Giganotosaurus — Detailed Guide
The Lightning Giganotosaurus is the lightning-infused form of the
Giganotosaurus, the largest land carnivore in ARK. Among the Lightning Creatures of Astraeos in ASA, it is the one to fear most: stronger than a wild Giga and always aggressive.
Where to find it
It spawns on Therokis in Astraeos. It can also appear as an enemy at Legendary
Orbital Supply Drops.
How to get one
It cannot be tamed, ridden or bred. Tame or breed a normal Giganotosaurus if you want one.
Uses
Killing it gives
Corrupted Nodules and a good chance at a
Corrupt Heart, since stronger Lightning Creatures drop hearts more often.
Tips
Plan for it before taking on a Legendary drop on Astraeos.
Turrets do reduced damage to it, so bring a strong group or heavy weapons.
