How do I kill a megalodon? megalodon battling strategies in ARK: Survival Evolved.
Every time that you are leaving your water tames in the beach to get drops remember to look EVERYWHERE this guys appear out of nowhere and because its attaking a tame, ir will not care about shallow water, I have lost many ichthyosaurus to them
Build a behemoth water pen, then open a gate and lure one in. Then simply shut the gate and tranq it out! I'm taking two right now!
I killed three of them while riding a sarco
Don't get stuck.
Their new gashing/bleeding effect is deadly even to a high level imprinted basilo solo if they start to swarm you
Basically the raptor of the sea: annoying and everywhere
I kiled 3 of these in a row and won there not so bad up this if you think so
Where gonna need a bigger boat (jaws)
Herbivore island there's a lot there (Watch out there very dangerous)
Put a couple points in a sarco's health and boom these get like 3 or 4 shotted
Check the level before killing or taming it because a good high level shark can be very good for deep sea loot crates
Island of the coast at bottom of map. 2 spawn in inside a lil cove already traped.easy tame
I had my icthy and my meg killed by these by 5 wild megs. The moral? Don’t have your tames on neutral
I fist fought 3 megas, now I have 3 megas. They are just chilling in the water near my base
If you don’t have a crossbow you can lure it close to the shore and if you have lots of arrows you can easily take it down with a bow
I fell of the boat and 10 of these killed me.
These are a joke my Barry killed an alpha in 2 mins
So I was in the Ragnarok map, and I was trying to get down to the desert from near the top right corner of the island. Later I got to a point were I had to swim across a river. I was about half way across when I was attacked by a megalodon. It was a death match! All the sudden, another on shows up and its then that I stop trying to kill them and I try swimming away. I had managed to make it out alive but with extremely low health. However I am glad I survived.
PS: About five minutes later I died to a raptor.
Be careful when under water if you are still new because they real dangerous.
I once encountered two megalodons in the shallow water of herbivore island, I just shot at him with tranquillized arrows while thinking that I shot him with normal arrows. He didn’t attack or anything and after a while I noticed that he was unconscious. Tamed him and he didn’t even attack
