Whilst a fully grown Gigaphant is generally sedantary and passive, its overall mass and tusks make it naturally equipped for goring and ramming attacks. Its considerable footprint makes it a formidable opponent in crushing and kicking attacks. A fully grown male bull will easily crush a Serra to death with one foot stomp.

Gigaphants display a very strong herd mentality. The alpha male will typically group and then mate with generally four females to form a close famil group, producing typically two young per female. Once the young have matured the alpha male will be rejected from the group when no longer able to defend itself from external threats. Elder females are generally rejected from the group when no longer able to breed or provide nourishment for young.
