Fun fact: Did you know ambergris is whale throw up in real life as well as ark? Ambergris in real life is actually extremely rare, and can be sold for almost more money than gold! It is used for a popular type of perfume.

Use a bloodstalker and a rocket launcher, jump around to its face and shoot it with rockets until it knocks out. Jump off the stalker and land on the whale to quickly feed it.

Cool battle scenario

Setting: plains/hills, enemy base, raid mission

Creature 1: space whale (saddle, fully mounted with 4 people, several tek bombs ready, at least 2)

Creature 2: Yuty (mounted by human, able to scare away enemy dinos and buff allied ones, at least 1)

Creature 3: allo (mounted by humans, charging at base defenders, at least 4)

Creature 4: wyvern (mounted by human, escorting space whales, maybe carrying dodo bomb, at least 2)

Scenario: yuty roars, buffing the charging allos and scaring enemy dinos, allos charge and start taking out defenses. Space whales and wyverns arrive, and birds are sent to counter them and turrets start firing. The wyverns and tek turrets on space whales take out the enemy fliers. Other tek turrets take out enemies and turrets below. The space whales are now directly over the base, and drop their tek bombs. The allos have successfully taken out most ground defense and the base has been wiped out.

dont get this mixed up with the astrodelphis

This thing is the ultimate warship. Its saddle has three gun turrets that consume element when shooting. It has a bomber mode that drops a cluster of bombs below it, consuming ambergris as the ammo. It can pretty much warp you and your nearby allies instantly. Plus it has a platform where you can build structures, similar to the platform saddles we’ve seen on Quetzals, Paracers, etc. The platform space is really small, but definitely workable.

DONT AND I REPEAT DONT USE THE ROCKET LAUCHER ON THE SKIFF IT WILL DESTROY THE SKIFF AND KILL YOU

Do not use rockets you lose over 50% taming effectiveness. Use a skiff and cannons

The best way is to use the Tek skiff which you unlock after the boss fight(like the saddle) and have cannons mounted on it. Probably easier with multiple people

Don't use mek because the astrocetus takes first the torpor and then the damage. The effectiveness will go down.

We tamed a 130 with mek and Kibble and get a 136 -.-

I think the stronger the weapon the more you loose the effectiveness, so the "best" way is to knock out with rocket launcher.

It's the same effect with rock elementals.

Wildcard should repair that.

The Astrocetus is a tamable, ridable massive space whale that resides in the Lunar Biome. It can warp through space, bringing anything around it with it. 🐋

It’s a flying titanosaur... that teleports?!?? It doesn’t die in a day tho

I have an ideia, involving rare flower, a rock bridge and 2 behemoth gates, wish me luck

I used a ufo with a canon didn't take long to knock out and was able to do solo

Taming with a mek makes it loose roughly 40% efficiency, if you have got a skiff its better to use that

Use a mek with canon to tame, 1 rocket to take down any lvl.

Very op in pvp as it can mesh across walls and annihilate TEK, however it is 100% useless in pve as of now, it is too slow and doesn’t have as much weight as a gasbag or a basilisk.

It could have use in pve if it was actually able to produce ambergris, as ambergris comes from whales in the lore, that would make magmasaurus breeding possible across your favorite ARKs.

Producing ambergris passively has to be implemented to give use to this creature in pve...

They also wonder around on their own, not sure it’s a BUG or if it’s intended, so leach or pod it.

Easy with mek and cannon shell, ko'd a 120 and tamed out as level 152 or something, really cool dino!

You can actually knock it out with a Mek Cannon if you do not have the Tek skiff.

Obtain a Tek replicator from tier 3 crates in the shop, and craft the Mek from the engram

Singleplayer taming is so hard. I had nobody to aim the cannon, and I'm currently waiting for the astercetus to wake up. I struggled so hard. He's a blue level 8. LEVEL 8. Dododex says there's a 93% chance of death for the cannon for a level 8.. Pretty lucky, eh? Singleplayer taming is.. Hard. Not impossible, though. I managed!

Also incase no one knows i like to use my space whale as a mobile replicator you cant build much on its platform but you can fit a bed and tek rep which kinda makes it op in my opinion, tested and done on ark official

Aggressive if you get too close! Watch out!
