Most likely gonna have too give it more narcotics than actually listed if higher level. Calculator not as accurate for this one
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
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:)

Pt. 2
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

Last tip: allosaurus
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
(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
If u are for some reason in the deep water (witch I very much don't recommend) and u run into this thing just use a crossbow but if u don't have one yet just use a spear -Big Bill
When taming use a net gun to immobilize the angler then use the highest dealing torpor weapon possible. Make sure you hit it consecutively else it will lose its torpor quick.
