My tribe has one of these beasts with 60k health, Another tribe came and with a turret raft and our 60k health basilo was the only thing that survived. We play on a normal difficulty server.

We were living out of a bunch of rafts

Tamed basilos can only produce 20 purple oil at a time but killing a basilo will give you about 200 regular black oil so it’s more worth killing them than taming them to get oil

They are surrounded by mantas so be careful

This thing is a shark magnet! (after game ) Everytime I try and do anything with the Basil, I'm swamped with Meg's. He did really well till just about t mins ago. 5 Meg's and an uncountable swarm of Mantas was too much. The Meg's target the Basil from way off and make a full on charge at him every time.

Took me 30 minutes to tame one on a 15x server, feels great

Really great creature

Soft skin

cute

Immune to jellies

too fast healing on surface

Okay damage

Passive tame but hard to tame one

Oil produces in inventory

Too good in pvp because of fast healing

Fast

Keeps cool in warm and warm in cold

Thats probably best tame for hunting.

Idk why but there is always like ten mantas around it

Ride water dino because it can make water dinos attack us

who the HELL said bug repellant works. I DIED THRICE ATTEMPTING TO TAME THIS THINKING THE REPELLANT'S GONNA REPELL THE MANTAS. but yea im getting my baryonixes n killing them now idc

Speed is key. Zoom in, zoom out, zoom all about. When in doubt, put on da tek suit.

My favorite thing to do is get one or two tribe mates get on our manas and get the mamas around it to chace them then start feeding it

I recommend you bring a sword or pike to help with the mantas, if that doesn't work bring a shark.

Shoot one of the mantas from far away to kite them and kill them all. From there, all you need to do is kill the occasional megalodon and you should be golden. Baryonyx highly recommended for this.

Kill the Manta Rays or they will kill you

People often tame these for fun or for free oil. Little do they know killing a wild one gives 400+ oil

Basilo is good for weight, and speed in the ocean.

1. Have a sea creature with you and try to attack the manta around it and be careful not to hurt it.

2. Feed raw fish. (It is a passive tame not a knockout tame)

3. It will be awhile to tame but have a good time with your basilo!

Just killed a low level alpha mosa in a head on 1v1 on my lvl 250 Basilo and only lost 5k health out of my 20K using a primitive saddle. If you have a good saddle for it and pump enough points into its health and melee you can definitely overpower every wild creature in the ocean with a basilo, including high lvl alpha mosa.

I found one near the Dragonmalte Trench on Rag. If you have a lightning wyvern, you can use its breath weapon to quickly dispose of the mantas. Also, utilize the herds of Ovis in the Highlands for plentiful mutton for the tame. Got mine real quick with no issues.

TIP:These Spawn Around the Edges of the map And spawn Rarely I think Go deep under water to find these (Note:This was for ppl Who Don’t know how to find it)
