If you want loads of xp then you should punch it and kill everything that comes after you v o t e u p

I’m not entirely sure if this theory can be considered canon, but I think that the ammonite uses the pheromones as a psychological convincer to any random creature to defend it.
That’s just a theory, a GAME THEORY!!!

Don’t even think about hitting it. Just don’t. If you accidentally hit it, just swim away as fast as you can. I was out hunting for ammonites (I didn’t know what they did back then) on my basilosaurus. I saw one and hit it. I watched in horror as the whole ocean came swimming at me. I swam back to the surface, only to realise, a Tutsi was chasing me. It knocked me off my basilo and it tried to kill it. Luckily I had scuba gear. I got the gear on, whistled passive and put it to follow. The stupid tuso chased me around the whole map and now it is right next to my base. My basilo is stuck on the other side of the island. All because I hit an ammonite.

They have a built in distress call, so if you attack it'll yell for help and like Every Single Ocean Creature will run to the rescue.

To the ammonites rescue, not to yours.

THEY'RE TERRORS!!! THEY ARE VERY DEADLY TERRORS!!! DO NOT TOUCH THEM OR MOEDER WILL BE SUMMONED BY THEM AND MOEDER WILL SWALLOW YOU WHOLE!!! Or will they summon Moeder?

This thing is the exact equivalent of that ‘cool’ girl (who is just a spoiled brat and good for nothing; If you get mad at this tip then it could mean you). Touch her once and then all of the school bullies (Tusos, mosas, plesiosaurs or the entire ocean) comes to beat you up. How do you fight them? A basilosaurus, I swear it works (probably the equivalent of a teacher giving detention to all of them) killing all of them. Trust me, basilo are tanks and good fighters and is not effected by eels or jellyfish. A few will do. Ride on one and the rest odder them to attack the tuso while you attack the mosa and then the plesiosaur then the smaller creatures.

Ever met a cry baby?..This guy will wail if you hit it and will cover you in a type of pheromone gas....causing you to attract every dino, sea or land, to bite your butt. Prepare for war. You only need to survive 80sec.

Basically the equivalent of the chicken in Skyrim, you hit it be ready for a big fight with the town

You touch the spaghetti, le spaghetti will not forghetti that you toucha the important ammonetti

If you never seen one of these guys or even heard of them then my advice is don’t punch it.

If you want ammonite bites just pick it up with a kapro and swim to the surface

Make sure that your not near any other Marine life because they will kill you if you arnt near anything kill it because you will get a lot of goodies from them

If you want a gift attack it then you will get a mosa a meg and much more

This thing is a crybaby. Hit it, and it'll go blubbering to all its friends. Exactly who are its friends? The whole ocean.

My little sister found one of these near beach once, it said it didn’t want to be tamed. What a chicken

Step 1 get god console
Step 2 craft a sword
Step 3 find it
Step 4 kill it
Step 5 harvest

If ya attack dem, just let da gauntlet of carnivorous water creatures eat ya alive!

Easy way to kill it is pump melee so you one shot it!

I found 2 ammonites and I didn’t attack but then my basilo got attack instead of my ictho and I got scared because i just tamed a basilo I was scared so I swam away

As these creatures seem non deadly they release pheromones that call the ocean so it's being a scary catcall its friends this is a good way to find certain animals and get the to swim to you if you have god console on ark mobile not sure if its available on pc or console but if you do turn on invulnerable. if you dont good luck or have a strong water tame with you good luck peeps.
