How do I kill a tusoteuthis? tusoteuthis battling strategies in ARK: Survival Evolved.
Don’t try to stun one with a barryonyx it will hug you stronger than me and I bet I can break a neck so swim or RIP Meg
Ps your dead fish meat
These are very rare on the center. You might find them at the mossa spawns if you're looking to for squids in the center.
I found one at red ob i decided to get in the water it gave me such a tight hug i died
I was just farming crystals when this thing appears out of nowhere and kills me so if you see one GET THE HELL OUT OF DODGE
If it de agros on you if you stand still it wont come near you or agro onto you until you move
For the noobs(aka new players or those who don't know much about about a tuso)when it says "does not wanna be tamed right now" it means it won't take good unless it has grappled onto a tame! Like for an example let's say you have 50 black pearls and a soothing balm( always get a soothing balm it makes life easier with these guys). Get a plesio or a tanky underwater creature(note:tuso's can't grab mosa on mobile so a plesiosaur is recommended). Get your fans grabbed by the tuso and go around where the tentacles won't hit you(like thanos said go for the head) and feed it the black pearls and the soothing balm(if you have one)! and there is a guide as simple as I could make it.
Normal: mosa or pleisio
Alpha: impossibility
Or just use a high level mosa, or a pack of every thing in the ocean
Just lost my mosa to a lvl 10 squid because the stupid thing was glitched & when I shot it 3-5 times in the beak & it didn't let go, so bring 2+ Dino's with you or avoid them!
@Tofuna Some dinosaurs don’t spawn close to you this is just my experience though
well I encounters this I thought I could kill it but what happened was he grabbed my tame a starting eating it I was sad because I loved my meg
I found a lvl 4 Female Tuso near my base, and I got scared as he'll when it kept dissapearing and reappearing in front of me, trying yo grab my Ples America Sweep. I accidently was followed to my water base, and smacked it down with my Basilo. I gotten around 30 Black pearls, so until I'm lvl 91, Tusos will fear me.
(BASILO CANNOT BE GRABBED BY TUSO OR GET ELECTRICUTED BY JELLIES!!!)
I encountered this goliath right near my base, i was exploring the sea with a newly tamed megalodon. I came over a large rock and there i saw it. Coming out, i was in shock and awe but then i was soon in fear for both my meg and myself. I raced back up to the surface with this thing right on my tail, I didn’t even bother to look back in fear that it would scoop me right up. Finally in the nick of time and stamina i made it into the shallows and i looked back to see the beast waving its tentacles begore disappearing into the sea. I knew i could not let such a monstrosity best me near my base so i went back and grabbed my rifles and crossbows and set out to lure it back into the shallows, i then unloaded magazine after magazine onto it, and then suddenly it sprayed its ink and i knew that the predator had become the prey. With my meg i hunted this beast down as it attempted to flee but it managed to beach itself and thus the demon had met its end.a word of advice DONT GO TOO DEEP
Best place to find these are 50 10 on ragnorok by broken ships.
There I am, swimming around in the oceans depths after putting it off for way too long.. tamed some cute dolphins and all was well.....
Then out of nowhere this craken thing just grabs me and squished me to death!
If you wanna survive thing thing, bring an "expendable" tame for it to grab, then either run for your life or tempt your fare and try to tame it.
Good luck, and RIP all my water Bois, I will avenge you!
You tame one you find one out side your door somehow on land
He is a passiv Tame,you must tame him with Blackpearls
Y’all talking about how they’re so hard to find but of course I get one in the ocean stretch that’s right in front of my house, he’s making it impossible to tame anything other then megas and itchys :/
It only wants to hug you, don’t dissapoint it. It has a pretty strong hugging-grip though.
Ive never really ventured the water but everyone is saying they are rare. However, i went to 47.7, 2.3 on Ragnarok to look at the artifact there and saw 4 right next to each other guarding it. I got out of there as soon as i saw them as i have no water tames, but was this a fluke? Or are they non tame-able like the dire bears in the ice cave
going though the ocean (is looking for the male level 50 tusk I spotted earlier and returned with appropriate tame and food) can’t find it (starts to question my very sanity) the 100 female abouta snatch my tame (hehe) [I tamed her name ideas? no tentacle stuff jokes]
