Tips & Strategies from the iOS & Android apps
We can finally have submarines
It will be a passive tame, you go up to it with a pack of ichthyosaurs and scrape barnacles off its belly.
It will be like the sea giga! π¦
Let's go first Shasta tip!
This in a creature coming in ASA. You will be able to find it in the seas of the Center. We don't know it's exact abilities yet, but it will be probably used as a submarine when saddled, maybe like a living vacuum compartment. It's taming method is unknown yet. - Tei
According to the dossier, now available on Discord, the method of taming is as follows. This hulking leviathan is a passive tame, however, to initiate the taming process you need a βschoolβ of Ichthyosaurs ( youβll need a certain number of Ichtys to create the βschoolβ), these will act as a distraction that enables you to do the next stage. Next, using a sickle, you swim to barnacle nodes on the Shastasaurus and harvest them. Assumably (since it doesnβt sate otherwise in the dossier) you have to repeat this several times.
Give it a chin scratch a pat on the back and itβs yours
It is a cool icthyasaur that looks like a whale
I already know this is going to be used for PVP and probably
Moder Bossfight
Will have a submarine saddle with torpedoes and echolocation!
This creature could potentially become the best aquatic creature on Ark Survival Ascended as you will be able to utilize it for moving land tames underwater and possibly even a small base.
