these things can grab you and carry you around till your dead… *sniff* learnt that the hard way.
Beware all who dare cross these nasty sardines and live to tell the tale. If ye be dumb and cross these ungodly creatures of the sea. Ye be warned all tamed beasties shall die a most horrible death and ye along with it for it shall send all who tread tbeyre water's to Davy Jones locker. If by some miracle ye wishes to capture this beast build a trap and lure it in with something fast. Do not tame with a club. Use trank arrows, darts or harpoon. Forget saving ure lure. Or it be the locker for you!
Don’t go close to them. Please pray for my dead frog. :(
I use a Deinosuschus to tame these little fish. Its tanky and you can spin around with a crossbow in your hands! You can use Biotoxin to keep them asleep and feed it superior kibble.
Just a reminder they are officially in the game.I learned that the hard way…
Tried to use ark asa oceans to conquer my thalassaphobia.
My expectation: Conquer my fear
Reality: 💀
These things are already one of the fastest water creatures which is already bad enough, but they also come in groups, maybe to like 3 or 4. Also they have the bleed effect, the bleed effect takes 5% of your health, doesn’t seem like alot but 5% is a whole lot. learned the hard way :(
