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

Always tame these guys riding a dolphin! They hang out with megs and mantas, and they will attack you if you’re not riding a dolphin!

These are laughingly easy on mobile with the power of Dolphin (itchyosaurus)

Dolphins are the chillest creatures in the ocean because literally nothing attacks it unprovoked, and mantas still will not care if u feed said Basil-O

The best aquatic tame second only to the gaint squid.

They are completely immune to jellyfish and eels and can rapidly regenerate health near the surface of the water, combined with an enormous health pool and good attack… Well you can honestly ignore Mosas and Plesis if…

I tamed one with an ichthy XD i just herded all the mantas, megas and others away by crossbowing em and it was left alone for an easy tame. Ez Pz.

This is a must have tame! Why? Well lemme tell you!

1:they are a really easy tame since there passive tamed so an easy noob tame

2:they are able to withstand a eel or jelly zap so you don’t get knocked of your mount(unlike the lucky noobs…RIP)

3:they are a passive oil…

Been trying to find one for 3 days now and I'm starting to wonder did they go extinct on ark as well cause I can't seem to see find a single one.

Mutton taming isn’t quite accurate. Was waiting for about 8 minutes between first and second feed, but once that was out of the way it did seem like 8 seconds between feeding. Also watch out for Manta’s after killing the original pack, as they can attract to the basi if it…

I was trying to tame one. I just used a icthyiosaurus (however it is spelt) it took a couple of trips to the surface but it worked.

The true king of the sea can kill anything if high level don’t go to deep or you will take damage kill other whales so you can get like 200 oil

This guy is Super GOOD mount underwater!!

Yes...when u go to deep water it will take a little bit damage..but it slow damage..

It hp is op..and same with attack

Clear all hostile dinos like mantas and megalodons then follow it around on a water Dino and feed it with your hotbar

IF YOU'RE LOOKING FOR BIO TOXIN THE BASILOSAURUS IS WHAT YOU NEED:

They are immune to jellyfishes, they have the ability to keep you warm or cold. But they cannot go very deep in the ocean before starting to get damage from water pressure.

Good source of oil if you hate the ocean. Just tame around 3 and have them by the shore, they will have oil in their invo, really quick too. Just take the oil and quickly use it, it spoils after a while
