So I spent the weekend learning the light pet/metal foundation taming method. A couple of helpful tips for those interested in taming these using this method that the videos don’t mention:

1. The basilisk has to aggro you not your mount or it will not tame. It is important to use a large tame that normally won’t make the basilisk pop out of the ground because these are tames they don’t naturally aggro when hidden.

Dismount, aggro the basilisk and then remount before it hits you! This is important. If it hits you it will continue to aggro you and not tame! Kite the basilisk to the foundation with your mount to avoid getting hit.

2. Carry some throwaway podded tames like low level moschops. Use these to make the basilisk pop out of the ground so you can see it’s level. That way you don’t have to waste foundations. Let it kill them and then bury itself again.

3. Clear the area of other wild dinos before taming. If it gets distracted by a random wild it will stop taming.

When you tame this creature you should use a bloodstalker and magmasaur eggs and a jerboa stuck under a metal foundation.

Trapping this creature does not work on official genesis. You will have to find a wall or overhang to grapple onto above the aggro basi and drop eggs down to them. This is the only method that has worked for me on genesis.

THIS APP IS ACTUALLY TELLING YOU THE TAMING AMOUNT FOR IF IT BURIES!! If you trap it and make it not attack anything you can just throw eggs and it will eat them without attacking you. It said I’d need 3 and I only needed 2!

Despite not being immune to radiation basilisks will sometimes spawn in the element falls region.

Level into weight and you can carry 10k+ weight at a time with a good leveled Basi.

Feeding interval 4 mins 10 sec. Fix it

Dododex, you may want to get rid of the knockout portion. They can’t get knocked out.

Do gas masks work for there poison?

Do not hit the snake while luring it over to be tamed. Seems like they lose effectiveness if it takes damage at all, even if it’s before it eats its first egg.

You Can use either fertilized Magmasaur or Rock Drake eggs. Magmasaurs are breedable, so you can use the eggs they drop from breeding, as long as they are fertilized.

On Genesis, not sure about Abb, the Basilisk will not eat it’s first egg until it’s health is totally full. If it has taken heavy damage, it will make you wait to tame it. You can check the health and stats of the Basilisk on Genesis by holding the map button down while targeting the animal. Once it’s health is full, drop one egg at a time. Had one basilisk refuse to eat any eggs because there was more than one present, and it got glitchy. If you are using 4high walls with foundations in the middle and ramps on the side as a trap, and it’s inside the trap and cannot burrow, there is no need to keep it angry. It’ll just sit there, staring at its first egg until it’s healed, hungry, or until the AI targets it. It’ll become suddenly agressive when it’s hungry, then it’ll eat the egg. Now drop another. It’ll eat when hungry

I will like a tek saddle for a basilisk

Am I the only one who sometimes sees a roll rat hole and think “is that a basilisk?”

Hey if you get fjordor the modded version if your flying with your sino might want to look where your going these have aimbot I swear got sniper fell in lava game over that’s why we have grapples but rip my sino fell in lava dead.Yet I still tamed that man I mean it was 150.I really hope they take basilisk to another place instead of volcano where X creatures live it is annoying to fly get sniped fall die or almost die then sino go bye bye.Just so you know if fjordor still has them in official oof just get ready.

What map is the basilisk found on and what terrain is it in pls reply because I want one leave a up if you want to know

I am reading this and I am hearing a lot of complaints. Btw these things are fun to use

On the lost island map you can also use fertilized wyvern eggs to tame. I tried it with ice wyvern eggs and the taming bar went up, I think it works with every kind of wyvern egg. Up for more people to see!

Quick tip: do NOT try to trap it with the birdcage trap method. It can just burrow under the trap and escape (I watched a vid that said this, but I haven’t tested since I’m too scared to play lost island.) also, does it eat anything besides le eggs upon tamed? Pls lemme know ^^

There poison shot is like a wyverns, u can hit people through structures, I use them for foundation raids

Get a rock drake, wyvern, tek wyvern, magmasaur egg farm or use low level eggs
