Utility Tips

What is a angler used for? angler battling strategies in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
Pearls are now easy af to farm with this little fella. Glad to see him finally get a unique ability. One of the most intresting fishes IRL but in game was always forgotten unless you wanted gel! NOW EVERY ALPHA HAS ONE Lvl slight weight and melee and speed and you have thousands of pearls in mere minutes
These lil guys are awesome! Small, can now pick up silica pearls,
Do speed, stamina, melee and health and ur king/queen of the sea in a small form!
Do ur characters oxygen to around 400% and the speed will ensure a fast route for air so you won't need scuba gear!
Best of all, if u get stunned, u don't get kicked off the dino, he can't move but he can still fight so high melee ensures a fast get-away! Works also when grabbed by octopus too!
Must have tame for silica pearls, in my server (island) people have blocked off the pearl spawn in the east leaving just the ocean pearls. Using one of these bad boys, I swim just south of Easter island and to the west of there, I come back with over 5k pearls in less then 30 min. I don't recommend using the angler as a fighter though only go after other anglers if it's safe to do so
My tip to getting a great level Angler! (Mobile only)
1. Go to cave of the strong.
2. Find the Angler you want.
3. Kill and grab its implant.
4. Build underwater reviving area, preferably shallow waters.
5. Revive and start the usual knockout tame method. Soothing balm recommended too!
Happy taming!
