THESE ARE ALSO FOUND IN THE LOST ISLAND MAP, IT WON'T SHOW UP ON DODO DEX SO UP THIS TO SPREAD THE WORD.

DO NOT use a crossbow for knocking out! Not for all shots anyway.

Use half to 60% of what Dododex recommends for crossbow, then finish the rest with harpoon tranq to avoid killing these guys.

I feel like Dododex is way off with their approximation of a 19% chance of death with a crossbow tranq. I'd say it's more of a 80%+ chance you will kill these with tranq only.

Up so more people don't accidentally kill a lvl150...

My favorite thing with anglers

"Hey I'm going on a pearl run, anyone wanna play bodyguard?"

Are you going to bite ammonites this time?"

"Told you it wasn't on purpose"

"Alright alright I'll go lemme get some scuba and I'll hop on the mosa"

Ten minutes later my tribemate is having to save me from two mosas, an alpha mosa, 50 anglers, 20 eels, 7 plesies all in one area

"STOP BITING THE AMMONITES"

"IT WAS AN ACCIDENT! they hide in the reefs and I hit them if they happen to be by a pearl patch! :'( "

Nope, totally biting them on purpose hehehe

As of the latest patch they collect pearls when you bite them.

I don’t understand how people eat this thing, I just wet my pants looking at it’s face

Best underwater nightlight and for collecting silica pearls

Thanks for reading. I'm Lilly and I do tips every week but they are all only mobile tips

This is kind of horrific amd not the most humane thing, but here goes. You can get a few of these, breeds them, and kill the children for angler gel. Just saying 😶

On mobile if you ride an itchyosaur anglers don't agro on you even if you attack them

Fun fact, Arks anglers are only half correct, you see only the females are big and powerful, the males are tiny and puny and all they do is attach to the female and then get absorbed by her, she steals his privates and then uses it to reproduce. She can do this as many times as she wants, with multiple males fused to her sides as she so pleases. This may sound disturbing, but there's a reason for this, angler live in the deep sea where it's dark and death can loom around the corner, and food can be quite scarce an elusive, so by having the males fuse to a female shortly after birth, allows them to co exist without competing with each other. This is also seen in spiders, but the spiders are less extreme, with the males just being smaller and eating something else, or hunting on the ground in opposition to the female on the web. Of course just like how the titaboa doesn't constrict its prey in ark, things like this are hard to program and difficult to balance. This would no doubt make angler breeding in ark absolutely OP, with allowing the female to select between differnt males to breed with on the same creature.
