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.

You should ride a Basilo,aggro the eels and then feed them.Usethe basilo cuz it is immune to the shock and is a huge TANK to widstand the tank.Updoote so people know.

Anyone else thing it should be able to power up stuff because it’s electric

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.

When taming remember TO FEED IT BIO TOXIN IT TAMES A LOT FASTER

It needs a TLC like please wildcard I beg u

Tame with biotoxin, it's realmente easy to get:).

(Tested in mobile)

1: find some Cnidaria, they spawn near the shore. (The glowing jellyfish, if you don't know how they look)

2: get in the water, then go out. they won't move for some seconds, but they will get closer to you. Do this until they get near the shore, where they can't get you.

3: kill them; DON'T GET TO CLOSER. They can shock you, and you won't move for some seconds. Normally they spawn in groups of 3.

4: farm the biotoxin, you can get around 13 from every corpse.

Idk if this can be also done in pc or console. Hope this helps!, up for more players to see it^^

(sorry for bad spelling, english it's not my first language)

Don't build under water near red on i

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

Forget using tames to bait one of these, if you’re on Gen2 just use your tek suit to swim, else use scuba gear using cactus broth (so only the eel goes for you).

This method is probably the easiest way to take one of these and requires next to no mats except a dino to get you there:

1. Make a wooden cage

2. Place it underwater

3. Kite the electro and swim over and on the opposite side if the cage so the eel is following you but swims directly into the open cage

4. Close the cage door

5. Float anywhere where you see the taming bar and not ‘open’

6. Chill out and enjoy your new electro

I did this on gen2 and the eel can not break the cage, easy tame, up this so everyone can see.

Good luck 😁
