Ok guys so to tame this dino your gonna to have a a water dino or propenso to be kiled by is manta frends ¡litary! It has mantas all around it ok so living that you wont have to knock it down but seriasly raw meat not fish raw meat and it is all your so thats all for today by ¡kill the mantas!
I have not tamed one yet but I can amazing it is realy hard to tame one at low level beacause first you have to get through all the damm mantas then knock the guy out and feed it a mountaineer of food though if you have a decent leveled megalodon/underwater heave hitter it should be easy to get through the mantas (sorry about the miss spelled words
Just get fish meat and a soothing balm because the fish meat is faster and soothing it will increase the taming progress.
Can someone tell me why this guy make a oil and I can't use a oil to make gasoline.
Did oil from basilo can't even use or that oil can make something?
Cute and has a pretty song it sings. Passive tame and mutton seems to be the best for it. Don't take to deep underwater or it will die from going to deep. Excellent for farming boo toxin.
Impossible to tame with raw meat on xbox one..... try it with a level 95.....glitched
Don't try and tame one with out high LV food, Pmeat, Mut, Kib.. The works.. It will reset after 75% of the tame bar fills up.. If you take more them 10mins tame it.
Somebody pls help me I was taming him and the taming bar suddenly started to get low very very fast bruhh I almost got him.
I found out that all you need to do is hit one of the manta rays,run away,and slowly lure them away
My poor dodo on my super raft was killed by mantas,(cause of near basilo)cndarias, megs that literally flew out of the water & caused mayhem & killed my poor dodo 🦤 R.I.P cwuckyboi. 10 ups=5 megs killed, 10 ups, 20 jellyfish killed.
P.S the jellyfish nearly got my para & trike killed #savethedodos
I haven’t advanced to try to tame one of these guys, because my server has a glitch were I go god speed in water. Help. But, I have seen that they have manta allies that follow them, so good luck taming them.
But, it wouldn’t be a tip if I just said that. I believe if you have a flying mount, tapejara and Quetzal would work, because you can jump out at the water off your tapejara and shoot it with tranqs. For the Quetzal, it would just be to get off onto its platform saddle. (If it has one.)
Then, shoot it with tranqs until it goes unconscious. Get a group of ichys (or low level megs ) to attack the mantas, then drive them away from the basilosaurus. (kill the mantas if you prefer that method.) keep it unconscious by shooting it again, punching it, etc, until it has low food. Wait for it to wake up, (make sure you have a tracker on it, which you access via your inventory (it’s the dinosaur track with the plus sign next to it) so that you now where he/she is) but before that make sure there are no mantas around to come protected it. Then, feed it. (But, this is just an idea. This may not work. I am unsure, though.)
K tamed Moby d*ck now for Leo liopeuridon
I used a baryonx for this and it’s t really helped
For those who want to tame this in new ark mobile, i recommen luring it to the trap you set, they alway swimming , if you are lucky enough you will find it in herbivore island bay . Goodluck cuz on ark mobile, you will find it really hard to passive tame
If you're taming one of these on mobile ride an itchthyosaurus because megalodons and mantas won't attack you even if you feed it. Well mantas will look like thwy will attack but they don't. Up so mobile players know this tip. Thanks 😊
I was travelling in the water when I saw a basilosaurus I only saw two in my solo server but it was usually surrounded by fish animals the first I saw was surrounded by itchys about four or five the next I saw it surrounded by mantas and one carbonemy hit it and every manta charged at the carbonemy I suggest if you want one go look for one that’s surrounded by something you can kill it’s very risky tho so I suggest taking a sarco or a fish T. rex (I forget what it’s called) to help you
B4 I got him I had 4 dolphins and we destroyed the sea, until I tamed this dude mega always want to kill this guy(he can take 5 megs on his own easy) so 2 of my itchy died trying to fight the megs rip to them also when u tame him he will level up like crazy due to all the megs he will kill ONLY LEVEL UP HIS HP his HP will go up like 235 every time u level up HP u will also get slot of iron axes and picks due to the killing of sharks u also get free oil from the basilo I guess it's for fuel but he is a tank I recommend getting two u don't need two but u should just do u can burn everything in your watery path they like regular meat from land animals instead of fish meat
Not worth what they give once they reach a certain tameing percentage they will swim down and you lose all your taming bar that's why I think its not worth it.
