More Shadowmane Utility Tips
Both male and female can turn invisible. However, one can transfer invisibility to ANY friendly creatures. I believe the female. -Syntac
Both genders can go invisible, they have a super jump, long distance teleport jump, bite attack, and a zigzag lighting dash attack. Females can make nearby allies go invisible, and they are part fish so they don't have an oxygen bar. You can only tame them while they are sleeping. You need ghilie, dead fish, and dumb luck. Feed them, move back slowly without taking your eyes off it. They only spawn in Rockwell zone on Gen 2. Hope this helps!
Since Shadowmanes have eight attacks/abilities, let me walk you through how to use them on a Playstation!
Primary attack: this oneβs easy, press the right trigger.
Teleport/lightning attack: double click the left trigger near a creature.
Teleport attack (with radar ability): hold the left trigger down until a target is found, then press it again.
High jump: hold down X until crosshairs appear. The longer you hold the higher and further the jump.
Camouflage: click the right joystick.
Charged attack: hold down the right trigger. (You can only use this attack when the bar at the bottom of the screen is full and the shadowmaneβs eyes are glowing. If you deal the final blow with the attack, it will automatically recharge.)
Roar pack bonus (male): double click the right joystick.
All tame cloak (female): double click the right joystick.
This creature is the crown jewel of ark creatures, as it is fast, strong, has good weight, can take a hit, and cloaks and swims incredibly fast. As well as everything listed above, they have a dash attack that hits multiple targets, and gets a crazy mate boost. There more, but Iβm tired of typing how good shadowmanes areπ
When it's low of health you can send to sleep and it recovers their 50% of health
You can replenish the timer on the filled fish basket by putting it you tool bar and standing in any body of water.

So if you are throwing out a ton of dinos out of pods at once and you have a male and female you can roar and itβll wake them up instantly. I use for babies when I raise with maewings
Both male and female can cloak themselves, but female can also cloak all dinos in an area around it, while the males cannot. The males can instead give a courage effect I imagine is similar to Yutys, but I donβt know for sure. Both male and female also have a powerful charged jump, and a dash attack where they teleport between a group of creatures and damage them, and also stun them for a couple seconds
So if you want the multitool of a pve, pvp monster dino here you go. Need to kill an alpha, Shadowmane, need a fast meat run use a shadowmane, need to kill a fast player shadowmane, kick a player off tame shadowmane, get drake eggs shadowmanes can jump, need to bait a creature with a fast tame shadowmane. Need a yuty for a boss, nah shadowmane, need a easy getaway dino shadowmane, need a boss army breed shadowmanes.
