ARK's base taming speed on PC, PS4, and Xbox is now doubled, meaning 1× is as fast as what 2× was previously. Dododex has been updated to reflect this. Use the "presets" dropdown for common multipliers.

At least on Xbox if you have walls underwater they almost always get stuck because they are so fast, use gates for underwater pens for them

THEY FLEE WHEN ATTACKED, JUST LIKE ANGLERS. IF YOUR RIDE GETS SHOCKED, PULL OUT YOUR CROSSBOW, SWIM AWAY FROM YOUR RIDE AND SHOOT THEM, AND ONE BY ONE, THEY WILL LEAVE YOU ALONE.

Some taming info:

A tamed tuso can grab these amd a teammate can then feed it bio toxin.

They deal torpor damage.

They have an electric aoe attack that damages and stuns players. While stunned you can feed it if close enough and temporarely use stims and medical brews.
Even with flippers they will outswim you.

Rush in and feed while stunned(use stims and medical brews)

Their electric aoe slows and renders all creutures unable to attack with the exception of the basilosaurus.

Does anyone think that it should be able to shut down all nearby players electricity like, lights, tek and even meks! That would make them worth taming

Made the mistake now I live under the water permanently as they killed my ichthyosaurs and megoladons and my best friend is a starfish

I tamed one with bio toxin and it’s super easy ! I just led it to the shallow and ran and fed it a couple times. It was a 135 ! Then it disappeared.
