Angler

Player-written tips for taming, using, and fighting the Angler in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
In Mobile, these things spawn in the water section of the lower south cave the one you get the hunter artifact from.
The best place to tame them is on Eldritch Isles in crystal isles, they spawn inside those water bubbles making it easy to shoot darts or even shocking tranq darts on them from the outside of the bubbles. Watch out for the piranas there because once tamed they will just eat…

No saddle required

Pan one tap knocks these to the head!
The jelly you get from killing them is used to tame mantas! I suggest using a pickaxe to collect the jelly.
From a distance they have a similar appearance as silica pearls. Tread carefully everywhere you go
Bring a crossbow, so you can shoot underwater.
Easiest way.
Use an acd crossbow as soon as you hit it, it will run follow it until attacks again that's the trick on not killing them
If you take the angler to the bottom of viking bay you can easily get a cap of pearls
Most likely gonna have too give it more narcotics than actually listed if higher level. Calculator not as accurate for this one
Everyone’s making it hard on themselves tame them in the blue sone river on abb that way you don’t have to go in the deep dark ocean to get them:) plus there body glows in the dark as well:) hope this helps:)
Creature information -DragonKing1
The angler has the ability to collect silica pearls, more efficiently than picking it up yourself and does not have a saddle
Put a baby angler in a fish basket and it instantly grows but can’t get imprint
I don’t know what use they have when tamed but the gel is needed for the electric prod which is really good for pvp
(Mobile not sure about pc)
If these angler going after your tame just bite them they are like “why this thing so strong” “this is not good i must swim away” and just like that you can chase them k i l l them and harvest with an axe
The gel they drop is useful for keeping a fire burning for a longer duration of time

The angler
Temperament: agressive to player, not to other water mounts even if ridden by a player.
Diet: carnivore, so feed it kibble or mutton
Taming: to tame, ride an icthy or shark, and shoot from afar, be careful of eels and other sharks, and when it falls asleep, it still looks awake, so make sure to check you didn’t shoot too many at it and ruined the effectiveness. After you’ve knocked it out you need to protect it from other things, if an eel aggros you and accidentally hits it, it’s effectively useless as taming effectiveness is gone.
Uses: the angler is a NEED for pearl farming, you can get over 5k easily, but watch out for ammonites and make sure to bring a mosa or shark to protect yourself
Final rating: 5/10
Making one of these for all animals on Gen 1 so go check em out!

Best map I’ve found to tame these so far is Valguero:
Just go to the bio / aberration cave, and there’s a shallow river with tons of them there, you can even use tranq darts while standing out of the water.

Just be careful to bring tons of narcotics for it, and a fairly strong mount to clear and guard the place, it’s full of karkinos and spinos
To whoever wrote that you could ride an angler IRL. Unfortunately they live deep deep into the ocean where water pressure is more intense than what we could handle. Bringing them up would make them collapse onto themselves. One can dream though.
