This tame has a couple very nice features and a few drawbacks.

It collects pearls very well by biting them. I get about 50 per bite. You also don't have to get off your tame to collect pearls, which can save you some headaches.

This tame has fairly good speed and the stamina regenerates quickly.

When attacked by an electrophorus, the shock does not dismount the player but does momentarily prevent the angler from attacking.

This could be useful in passive taming the eels, as well as preventing many untimely deaths.

Drawbacks: it has a very small attack range and area of effect. It also has pretty low damage output. It is nearly useless at attacking anything larger than a mega piranha.

This creature is a pain in the neck to tame, but is a near magic solution to running out of pearls.

This is kind of horrific amd not the most humane thing, but here goes. You can get a few of these, breeds them, and kill the children for angler gel. Just saying 😶

Who thinks they should produce angler gel in their inventory over time like basilos and tusos

Level up melee to collect more pearls. Level up speed to outswim creatures.

Want infinite fuel?

1. Get yourself a simple underwater tame like a meg

2. Kill anglers for gel

3. Store and keep burning in standing torches or refinery

( STANDING AND WALL TORCHES BURN BLUE)

I collect this with a plesiosaur and can burn 700 metal with just 30. Lucky I collected 5000

People keep saying use angler gel for fuel, but that’s a waste. Use wood so you can then get charcoal for gunpowder, something that you constantly need.

YOU CAN RIDE THEM WITHOUT A SADDLE

They will also light up the area in front of them with a soft, bluish light

After you get a mosa kill these and you will have so much anglergel you won't know what to do with it.

Probably because there are already not that many uses for angler gel.
