More Basilosaurus Utility Tips
Haven’t seen anyone talking about this, but wild Basilos are useful in another way: taming lots of Mantas!
The Mantas that spawn around Basilosaurus are still dangerous, but unlike other Mantas they WON’T aggro if you’re simply nearby or accidentally touch them. With enough AnglerGel, you can tame a whole school without a problem and then tame the Basilo after you’re done. Plus now it’ll have its own personal bodyguards!
Just watch out for other wild Mantas, though. If you aggro them, even the Basilosaurus’s Mantas will attack you.
