Giga Health Stat Confusion
So a friend and I tamed a few Gigas recently, during the tame it said they had 140k health, after the tame was complete they ended up having 300k health, and we were like wow that's cool. Then on mine I was a little curious how much he would get if I put a point into health, so I did, and now not only mine but my friend's says it had 30k health now. In addition they only get like 100 or so health for each level put into health. Is this a bug or something?

The health after a giga goes down. 30 k sounds correct. It doesn't get many health points as well when you add to it

But only 100 ish per level? That seems pretty low, even if it is for balancing.

It's only useful putting points into melee dmg unfortunately

This link should explain it better than I can in a short manner.

But Bain is correct, if you put points in anything but melee damage expect to get no value for your points.

health stam speed are all wasted levels on a giga. it's all about the melee.

All into melee, got it. But one more question, if a wild giga has 140k health can our gigas be expected to make up for the severe lack of health by having better melee then if they fought a wild one? Or are we just screwed?

DO NOT ATTEMPT TO FIGHT A WILD GIGA WITH A TAMED GIGA. The stat difference is so immensely different. You will not be able to kill it, I promise, and even if you get close all you'll do is enrage it more, thus further screwing yourself over.

Wild giga stats are SOO BROKEN the Devs had to nerf the taming stats instead of fixing the wild stats

wild gigas not only have 5times your hp they have also a Huge reg, and base dmg is 1200 so dont try this.

They are also the fastest creature on the island with unlimited stamina and crush stone.

Trurely a broken dino.
