Tips & Strategies

Up if you think Basilisk should have a tek saddle.
These are on volcano island in Fjordur, be careful they sometimes come in pairs of two.
Many people think I’m vicious, unfriendly, and dangerous. However, I’m really just angry I can’t get any good type of cuisines. Survivors just make up the lost nutrients! I crave a good exotic dish. I never have time to go scavenge for them however (Fine, I’m just too lazy to get them myself), and hence why I will love anyone or anything that would give me these. As a part of the Serpentes family (Snake family), I love eggs. For my preferences, fertilized ones. However, I need something with more punch for my larger (and more hazardous) digestive system. There are 3 specific flavor types I love. Radioactivity charged tanged egg with a mild rocky flavor, a very spicy but melts on the tongue kick, and finally, a crunchy, bitter electronic, but still very flavorful, metallic egg. (Hey, don’t look at me like that, everyone has different taste preferences!) Of course, this is the rock drake, magmasaur, and voidwyrm fertilized eggs. Please, I’ll love you forever if you feed me these. (I might think of you some random attacker when I first see you, so please avoid my eye contact and drop the eggs for me, don’t worry, I’ll find out who got me this treat later) Thank you tasty- I mean generous survivors for reading this!
Love from your favorite snake friend,
Basilisk
WHY IS THIS THING A PASSIVE TAME I DO NOT WANT THIS TO BE AWAKE WHEN I FEED IT
They eat regular wyvern eggs too
Honestly don't use the bury feature while you are riding it. To use it press the jump button while riding it. The ability is cool and it makes you untargetable but if you are anywhere near water it will likely glitch and send you and your basilisk through the map and kill you both. I lost a level 100 in the upper mushroom One because of this. The Basilisk is fast enough and tabky enough to run away from anything without using the bury ability anyway. Thumb up so others don't lose one too.
Basilisks can now be tamed with fert magmasaur eggs!
Throw a shoulder pet (bulbdog) and make it passive,
Put a foundation on top of it and change it to block,
Throw the rock drake eggs near the foundation
Go and aggro the basilisk it will agro on your bulbdog but never het it, set back and watch big snake boy eats the eggs while trying to hit your shoulder pet
I tamed 3 basilisks in a raw while afk watching YouTube with this method 😅
Me: Sees a cool V on the ground, explores
Basilisk: Hey did you come to feed me?
Real Men tame this using fertilised dodo eggs.
I don’t want to sound like a smartasss but wouldn’t be more efficient to email wildcard to make them eat crystal eggs instead of in the Dododex?
Please wildcard, make these guys able to eat crystal wyvern eggs. Why else add them to crystal isles? For noobs to be killed a lot?
Basilisk like to hide under u so if u see a W in the ground don’t go any were near it and if you see a basilisk itself... run
LIKE SO MORE PEOPLE CAN SEE
Make them eat crystal wyvern eggs. So I can get one on crystal isles :(
Been scrolling through tips and Haven't seen anyone say this yet.
While taming do not let it burrow. It losses effectiveness.
And while using tames that it ignores, I reccomend a fast one it does aggro to (I used a ravager). It will keep the aggro, while still being able to dodge attacks.
Just kite it around in between feeding intervals, and keep kiting over the egg when you have one dropped.
This is the method I used to tame a 150 on a x5 server (took 3drake eggs)
Aberration survival rule #1: if you see a strange "v" in the ground, run for your life and don't look back
If you are looking to get a basilisk on crystal isles don’t even try without forcetame or spawn rock drakes due to the drakes not spawning. Thanks for adding acid spitting snakes on the map TAHT CANT BE TAMED
Takes 4 eggs on 3x help prevent a bad day for someone else!
