Back a little more than a year ago they were way faster had Stam that didn't drain in 5 seconds even the low levels tamed up with 25k health. They used to be way better
My giga's stats after killing a wild level 50 giga. As you can see I have 76% imprint with a 96 armor saddle. Brought it to about half hp and did absolutely nothing to my rage meter.
Technically speaking, the highest tamed giga melee you can get is 285, which is obviously extremely rare and valuable, anything past that is mutated. One mutation is 10% damage.
And when you ever raise/tame one, the only thing you should ever ever ever level up is melee no matter what, leveling up anything else is not worth it and is a waste when you see how much those stats actually increase in comparison to melee.
Coz your just taming any old gig once you know your stuff you should be able to hunt for the gigs with above average stats and breed them until you get the mutated stats and than your giga won't be so carp
The giga's we are breeding at the moment are having no problem taking on level 100+ wild giga's and making them rage in max two bites they don't even take 2k of my :hp
