Player-written tips for taming, using, and fighting the Basilosaurus in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.

This was my 2nd water (as in ocean since I have 8 kapros) tame ever I have 2 of these for me it was easy to tame I grabbed my dolphin and went looking once I found one a swam close and fed it raw meat the mantas did absolutely nothing I ended up with2 of these.

I spent like, 30 minutes trying to tame this, and then the taming levels started dropping super fast. Has this happened to anyone else?

I found mine while riding my itchy it was pretty easy tame I named mine bailey it makes oil so I don't have to look for trilobites I'm dont have a saddle for her yet but I really want to ride her

Here’s a tip! Take a Baryonyx out and stun all of the creatures around it! Try not to hit the Bassey, all the others will follow you and you can easily stun and kill them all! Have kibble or preferred taming method in you last item slot! Put you Barry on follow and just feed…

2. Using your mount, find a Basilo, go up to it and aggro the stingrays (if their aren’t go to step three), swim not to far, turn…

Ima lvl 47 and tamed one with my itchy named pyrite this things a beast I got attacked by a group of megs bc I dismounted and he savages them like they were paper

Don't be scared when encountering and taming it, its pretty chill and will be easy to tame if u kill every manta or shark around it.

A little fact: If you have a basil and you are in the ocean and got dismounted from your mount (like an ichy) and you have a tamed basil with you , make him follow you and swim directly to the surface.The basil will follow you and push you up wards (if it doesn't, just…

Lost my girlfriend, almost got fired, lost a week of sleep, spent over a hundred bucks, but I did it. I raised a fifth generation Basilosaurus. I would say it’s definitely worth it considering it does about Giganotosaurus damage and we did the speed and stamina stats right…

Do not underestimate this tame. My lv 37 just took down a 120 alpha megladon. The surface heal buff is the real deal.
