Prepare to fight every living thing in the ocean if you attack it
Ammonite
While the Ammonite cannot be tamed, it is often hunted as its bile can be used to make powerful antidotes.
Player-written tips for taming, using, and fighting the Ammonite in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
If you never seen one of these guys or even heard of them then my advice is don’t punch it.
For Those who are wondering what their bile is for, check the wiki. It's the irreplaceable material for crafting pheromone darts, the dart can be used to attract all wildlife around the target to enrage and attack the target for 30 seconds. Useful in pvp but just about…
For Those who are wondering what their bile is for, check the wiki. It's the irreplaceable material for crafting pheromone darts, the dart can be used to attract all wildlife around the target to enrage and attack the target for 30 seconds. Useful in pvp but just about useless in singleplayer. So if you're on singleplayer (like me) there's not much to gain by killing ammonites.
Some things that i don't think anyone has mentioned yet:
1. Ammonite rage attracts not just normal wildlife but alphas as well, and as people have said they will not be restricted by their normal limit in water so Look around before hitting an ammonite, especially if u can't kill it in one hit.
2. As Icthyosaurus have a "invisible" glitch/feature that causes creatures to simply ignore it and it's rider most of the time, even when attacked.(shared by all creatures tamed inside tribute caves. To ensure you do not anger any creature u want to kill hit from behind and wait for the creature to calm down before hitting again if it angers.) It might seem perfectly suited to kill ammonites. Wrong. ammonite rage completely nullifies the invisible glitch when it's active, often resulting in a breathtaking sprint away from furious plesios, mosas, and in one occasion an alpha mosa that nearly managed to kill my icthy. So Unless you just want a quick getaway mount, don't bring an icthy to kill ammonites.
3. Aside from their unique bile, they also drop silica pearls, oil, and rarely black pearls. And they're not as rare as some of the other black pearl dropping creatures. So If u can handle anything the ocean throws at u it might be worth your time to find and kill them for the pearls.
They are actually useful, if you cannot find a mosa just punch one, you just have to come prepared with dinos and strong armour

You should probably punch one of its tentacles. The mosa hidden in that dark corner will enjoy your meat.
The Ammonite Juice released from it’s wounds can be very useful, specifically for luring Mosa and Plesiosaurs to the surface. There it will not immediately try to kill you and if using ranged weapons you can tame/kill it with ease
To tame this rare creature you must do something daring........Cheat forcetame
they are literally the biggest pussies. if you touch them they fart all over you and get eveyone to eat you.
Most useful creature you can not tame but be careful if I gets green gas gets on you every sea creature will attack you
Aight Mr. Sensitive. Geez 🙄 😒
Soo easy to meat run just hit 1 of these with a squid and eat the whole ocean black caped squid in 10 min meat run done
Force tame em if you want em
To be yours
Can’t find a mosa or squid eh? Give one of these guys a punch and you’ll be sure to find one.
Found everywhere around the map edges. They are quite deep though.
It’s favorite food is force tame
You can use these in ark mobile to get deepsea creatures to follow you to the surface (where they will be seemingly disorientated after the effect wears off, giving little to no response to being attacked)
doesn't pacify tusos and electric eels since they can naturally…

You’re gonna hit it and everything is going to come and molest you and everyone you love
Be very careful around these things because if you accidentally hit these things you will regret it..
You have alerted the horde, get ready...
Clear the area out before you take this dinosaur on
Everything in the area, megalodons, plesiosaurs, mosasaurs, coelacanths, everything under the sea, will hunt you down and kill you because this thing is a coward that can’t fight it’s own battles. But it does give bile.
