There's always one on herbivore island
Basilosaurus
The Basilosaurus is a dolphin-like creature that primarily dwells along the shallow areas of the ocean. It has the ability to keep survivors warm or cool.
Player-written tips for taming, using, and fighting the Basilosaurus in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
These are great under water tames , they can produce oil and are immune to the jellyfish and eels of ark as well keeping you warm great all-round water mount
Very good midgame water tame for before you can get plesios, mosas, tusos,etc, lots of health, good damage.
Wild ones are easy to kill, give a lot of prime and oil
Uh I just found something quite OP about a basilosaurus. It has 2400 base health, while the mosasaur has 3600 base health. However, a Basilo gains 480 health per point (wild) while mosasaurs only gain 432, meaning that, at higher levels, a basilosaurus will usually have more…

However, a Basilo gains 480 health per point (wild) while mosasaurs only gain 432, meaning that, at higher levels, a basilosaurus will usually have more health than a mosasaur of the same level. The only tameable creature in the ocean with a higher health than a basilo at higher levels is a tuso.
How are these passive look at that mouth
just get a nice lvl sarco and kill s everybody around him. if you doing the tame with meat (like me) get ready cause its going to require a loooooooot of time.
I don’t know if other people have experienced this but in ark mobile (or maybe other ark variants) but if you use potent dust on Basilosaurus it knocks them out for some odd reason.
How to tame or kill for oil.
1.Get a baryonyx and use its aoe on the mantas until most are dead
2. Passive tame it ( Or kill for a hell lot of oil ) while your baryonyx is close incase a stray manta comes
3. Repeat until tamed
Must tame, it was hard for me to tame but it was a fluke, I lured all the mantas away and started to passive tame it but then megaladons ambushed me and me and my ichtyosaurous (dolphin) died, I respawned, grabbed my sarco got back and then killed the megaladons and tamed it…

I’m making a saddle right now, and if you want more reasons to tame I have more, it can’t kill a mosasaur if it is good lvl, it can kill many packs of megs, mantas and anything else in the ocean, AND it is immune to the tusos grab, and immune to bothe the jellyfish and electric eel stings, easy tame if you are careful, yet so powerful. I’m still sad about my dolphin 😔, 1 🆙 = one rip for the dolphin I didn’t even have time to name 😢
You can find these in the reverse peninsula on Ragnarok’s Viking Bay.
The simple noob way to tame them is get any kind of meat and place it in your hot bar.Get on an icthy to do this.it worked for me and now I have 2 OP Basilosaurs.Did I mention how powerful they are?They can destroy just about anything that you find near the surface of the water.
Do NOT get close to these when there is like 50 mantas on it trust the mantas shredded me like cheese when I got to close
Literally everywhere at the back of carnivore or herbivore island 🏝
Very efficient at gathering bio toxin
The reason why basilo is immune to jelly fishes and eels, because oil
Is resistant to electricity which mean this creature produce oil and immune to electric that's why this creature immune to electric. Up so ppl can see
Ur Welcome for tips :)
In order to tame a Basilosaurus you need a croosbow and an acuatic mount that's enough strong to deal with mantas.
When you have all of this just shoot to a manta that's near the Basil and all of them will attack you, and here you wil pick the your crature and kill…

Once you slayed all the mantas go with the Basil and start taming him pacificly.
Be careful because each time you feed it nearby cratures will come at you.
Have a tribe mate and have your own ichthyosaurus and have the tribe mate have one too.
1.find a basil of you choice.
2.have ur tribe mate aggro the mantras away.

Roughly 8 min between 1st and 2nd feeding of a 140 x-basilo
They are way stronger than I thought, I tamed a lvl 20 and it had over 3k HP and I was able to killed three megalodons lvl 90, 100 and 120 at the same time like it was nothing!
MOBILE ONLY
ride an ichthyosaurus and feed it meat prime meat or kibble and I recommend using soothing balm,the reason why I use ichthyosaurus is because in ark mobile it is ignored by every other predator,so just hop on ur icthy and feed the basilo , also DO NOT DISMOUNT…
