How to tame tuso
1 get a tame. I don’t see why turtles are so good at taming, meg worked fine but either will work. lvl up heath
2 search deep sea, I found 3 on brutal from the bottom left corner of the map to the top left corner of the map.
3 if you have soothing balm use it but I didn’t need it. use black pearls takes 50 at a time but if you did use balm you can use cooked prime meat takes 30 at a time I think.
4 go on a killing spree in the sea to open spawn spots for tuso.
5 when you find it, kill all eels, mantas, and any other hostile Dino’s near it.
6 tame by letting it grab your tame, then feeding it the pearls or prime meat.
U can only feed it black pearls and it must be grabbed on something to feed it
They are easier to find while riding a raft, having a monkey on your shoulder, and having a beard. It is recommended to have a big raft that looks like a pirate ship. The ship must have cannons.
I tamed one of these and immediately died, of course my reaction was like with most other tames of oh god dammit now it’s gonna die, I zipped over on a dolphin and found it sitting innocently in a ball of about 50 meg carcasses with 2 plesiosaurs in the mix
/////////////////////////////////
WARNING THIS CREATURE IS AGGRESSIVE AND KILLS YOU
/////////////////////////////////
On crystal isles you can commonly find these guys near the shore with the text "does not want to be tamed right now". Dont fall for it,you can still tame it but its gonna a lot weirder than if it was completely underwater. First if you hit it with your tame (e.g carbonemys) riding or watching far away commanding it to attack it will stay still and not attack and afterwards it will be completely passive even if you attack it. First you need to get your tame close to the tuso (dont worry it wont aggro to you first), then attack and quickly run away. This way even though it normally wouldnt have wanted to grab your tame will still grab it since it is the nearest dino there is,afterwards feed it black pearls or cooked prime meat if you wanna go for a few more rounds. It wont do that much dmg to your tame if you feed it quickly,like not even 500 dmg.
You need two people, one for feeding the black pearls and the other to feed the turtle that is in the grasp of the Tusoteuthis, with sweet vegetable cake for the health and to feed it stimulates berries as well
When the tusoteuthis grabs you you can avoid its attacks by firing an arrow at its beak during the attack
Will not grab mosas in mobile!!!!

The Tusoteuthis is a massive, aggressive squid found in the depths of the oceans. In battle, the Tusoteuthis can grab its prey and knock it unconcious, siphoning its blood to gain health. Once tamed, the ink from a Tusoteuthis can be used as a constant Oil source. Some survivors choose to hunt the Tusoteuthis for its Oil.
What does a Tusoteuthis eat? In ARK: Survival Evolved, the Tusoteuthis eats 50 Black Pearls, 30 Cooked Prime Meat, 20 Raw Meat, 30 Cooked Prime Fish Meat, 30 Cooked Meat, 20 Raw Fish Meat, 30 Cooked Fish Meat, and Bacon.
