Fighting an Alpha Raptor is no piece of cake, that’s why you should always advance through the game before considering this move. Taming some Direwolves shouldn’t be that hard for a Mid-Game, especially with an Argentavis. A couple of these excellent hunters should be enough to kill even the toughest Alpha Raptor out there, but you have to develop your skills and stay alert, as a good combat dinosaur isn’t enough to take down this powerful Alpha. Direwolves are surely a tame that’s worth it, both for fighting raptors and making your game easier. They are great companions, travel mounts, and even harvesters, so why not give it a try? 

How it works: 

  • Tame a couple of Direwolves. You should only go for 135s and above.
  • Use them to attack an Alpha Raptor and remember to right-click for howl buff!
  • Enjoy a complex combat and kill the Alpha 

4. Therizinosaurus

Maybe this is not the safest way to win a battle against an Alpha Raptor, but it’s definitely an alternative worth considering. Despite its innocent appearance, the Theri is actually an aggressive therapod that can kill you without hesitation. Its main advantage is harvesting insane amounts of resources, but it’s not a secret that this fearless creature is a combat specialist. It is capable of some serious damage due to the speed of its attacks and can confuse the raptor easily. Take a chance and enjoy its many skills. Maybe even kill an Alpha Raptor with it. It all depends on you.

How it works: 

  • Tame a mid to high-level Theri
  • Start an attack on an Alpha Raptor and be surprised by your Theri’s combat powers 
  • Watch the Alpha Raptor being defeated 

3. Bleeders

To clarify things, bleeders are tames that can deal damage equal to a specific percentage of the target’s health. This makes them extremely useful against any Alphas, including the raptor. Some examples are the Carno, Thylacoleo (the marsupial lion), Deinonychus or the Allosaurus. All of them are dangerous predators, not easy to tame, but worth the trouble. Depending on their level, their high melee damage and attack speed should surely be enough to kill an Alpha Raptor fast and clean. 

How it works: 

  • Tame a bleeder of your choice. All of them are amazing and possess unique qualities that will help you in combat 
  • Find an Alpha Raptor and start the fight with confidence 
  • Kill the predator and heal your tames

2. Argentavis

The Argy is considered to be one of the best creatures of Ark. Use it to create one of the best strategies and defeat an Alpha Raptor in no time! Take advantage of the Argy by using it on steep terrain. You will rarely be hit by any rocks and some of them will even allow to tilt its head down in order to avoid any damage. In this fight, knockback is your friend and experience makes the best practice! Don’t be afraid to try this different approach and protect your other dinosaurs.

How it works: 

  • Tame an Argentavis 
  • Learn its attacks and abilities and become an experienced rider 
  • Fight against an Alpha Raptor and be sure to win!

This one is a classic. While you may consider it a little boring, and not the most exciting way to kill an Alpha Raptor, it actually is the most simple and efficient one. Therefore, if you are looking for results rather than an incredible fight, this method is perfect. Kill a dinosaur to lure the alpha to the corpse. An important step is checking there are no distractions and no carnivores around. If you want this strategy to work, you’ll need agility and precision. Run fast and be sure to have your best firearm at you. While the raptor is enjoying its meal, shoot from a safe distance. This will make him an easy target. 

How it works: 

  • Craft a firearm and load it 
  • Kill a creature and let the corpse out there if an Alpha Raptor is around 
  • Search for a safe place and shoot the raptor. Aim for the head to get x3 damage
