Your options are Narcotics (40 Torpor), Bio Toxin (80 Torpor, best efficiency), or Narcoberries (7.5 Torpor, cheapest but slowest). The Gallimimus bleeds 4.17 Torpor/s, so keep a close eye on the bar and sedate early.

Starve & Torpor Timers

Use the torpor and starve timers to track your Gallimimus tame in real time. Torpor monitoring prevents premature wakeups. The starve timer is for the starve-tame method - let Food drop, then load all kibble at once to avoid waste.

ARK: Survival Ascended features the Gallimimus as a tamable, herbivore creature that survivors will encounter in the wild. Classified under the Scout group.

Its base Melee Damage sits at 100%, giving it solid damage output. Starting at 150 Health, it's on the squishy side. Stamina sits at 300 base, providing decent staying power. Weight capacity starts at 270, giving it a solid weight pool.

To tame the Gallimimus, you need to knock it unconscious using torpor weapons, then feed it while it's down. For best results, use Simple Kibble - it gives the highest taming efficiency.

As a tame, the Gallimimus earns its keep through resource gathering, making tedious farming runs much faster. Breeding produces fertilized eggs that hatch within a 24°C–28°C temperature window. Killing a wild Gallimimus yields 1 base XP. It can be cloned at a Cloning Chamber for 0.35 Element plus 0.01 Element per level.
