How do I kill a basilisk? basilisk battling strategies in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
If You want to tame one of these on Crystal Isles It's a pain in the ass to find them but i found the most in the bog area
If you see a plant that looks like 3 sticks RUN
Why let these things Spohn on Crystal Isles when we can’t even tame them like I would understand if they weren’t in the map or if you just plain out can’t tame them but you can but we’re not able to since we have no eggs to do it.
Why we use wyvern eggs
In genesis easily the most annoying thing in the game.
If you see one and you have a pet with you it will kill your pet first then go’s for you
If u see this run like hell unless u have ascendant armour I was In full tek an it still one shot me
1 2 3 on my spawn friend just joined bad omen I say
How get blueprint 124 asc or some1 sale 1?
i’ve found out two things about these things during my time on Crystal Isles
1. they don’t aggro on tamed Spinosaurs
2. the eggs required to tame them cannot be found on Crystal Isles, meaning that they can’t be tamed on Crystal Isles
They are very slow especially the one on aberration
if you have a HUGE pack of raptors all on aggressive and make them kill the basilisk it’s really easy to kill it (obviously)
You can encounter them anywhere but there rare
They agro on wild Rex... You may lose many Rexs on Genesis map because of this, Be careful
Tame a high level megalosaurus and wear hazmat at all time just in case. Abb megalosaurus can rip through anything. Just avoid its first venom ball them get all up in its face. Haven’t encountered a 150 yet but seem to have no issue this way.
These guys can bury them selves under ground and from the surface they look like a plant
If you fly all a round a buried one or even touch it with your flyers face you should be fine as long as your flying just don’t walk up to a buried one that won’t end well

PS I’ll try to add a tip or name for every creature in Dododex just look for the ones that have -WhiteWinterTiger at the end!
Careful: they pretend to be giant rockarrots, but don't be fooled, if you pull that big rockarrot up it will spit poison on you, put you to sleep, toy with you for a few minutes, and then swallow you alive to be slowly digested helplessly
I've bow killed these guys at low level. Not as feasible if they are like max level but possible.
Step 1. If planning to kill load up on arrows and cooked meat
Step 2. Locate target
Step 3. Wait for it to come in range
Step 3A. You can aggro and lure but much harder
Step 4. shoot the crap out of it until it dies
Step 4A. Eat meat to heal from poison damage as it as a mild AOE
Step 5. Superior look of Superiority

I was doing pretty well, I have a lot of spinos because I keep breeding and lots of other dinos in what I think is the best region. I wanted to go to the place with the pink crystals to continue on with the game but the first time I went down there I died to radiation. I started thinking better and wanted to use zip lines so I brought my ravager I had with. I was about to shoot the zip line when all of a sudden my ravager got shot by acid. I turned around to see a basilisk sitting behind. He bit me once breaking all of my chitin armor, so I ran away and left behind my ravager. They obviously died and I fell asleep next to a rock and got away. That is my worst encounter with a basilisk.
For any new players going into Aberration... The Portal is the easiest spawn point yes, there is a good spot for Berry gathering and Stone, Thatch, and Wood. However, be wary that Basilisk's will spawn in that area occasionally. Be prepared and watch for the tail poking out of the ground. I recommend you spawn at Fertile Lake 2. Good luck Survivers
Not a tip but a question. Can you use any type of fertilized egg to tame this? I have a pair of moschops and I'm just curious.
