How do I kill a basilosaurus? basilosaurus battling strategies in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
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.
Ride water dino because it can make water dinos attack us
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)
Looks aggressive on here I know, but they are the nicest things
Guys can anyone tell me where can I find these creatures on mobile? I have unlocked it's saddle already and was searching for it whole day with diplocaulus and only what I got is dozens of megalodons
I found my first one at HERBIVORE ISLAND ( on mobile ) and i lost my level 30 meg with 1000 health and lists of damage to multiple megs but my bary killed the mega due to them having low heath thanks to Maggie my meg, now I’m using my bary to kill the manta’s and a diplo to give me oxygen ( I’m level 52 ) and I’m gonna game a basilo now XD
I found mine in the ocean map you can find a lot of theme there.
Found a neat level 28 stuck at the bottom of the ocean. Taming the boy with raw fish prime & Raw meat on my Karpo, with speed 200% on. Doing well- been peaceful as I just swim around him with my Karpo, feeding him meat. Hasn’t attacked me once. As if he’s been waiting for me to find him, tame em. Hope I don’t run out of meat. Assuming their passive despite how they are in real- ;)
On Crystal Isles, there are some shallow pools where this whale will spawn in the Redwood area. Found a few 130's.
Just takes two max levels. Mating pair. I killed the mantas with my tek bow then went in for the tame. First time and I thought it was easy 🤷♀️
Damm it gives me chills while i listen to her songs. Feels like she's singing a sad & creepy song. Help.
It's passive. Mantas and icthys work together to kill it.
Use a itchy when trying to tame because the mental and sharks does not aggro on it
I’m a mobile player so I find them most around the shores on the right lowers side of the map. I found my basilo sausage around there just be aware of the amount of animals that will come after your basilo after taming it I recommend taking it to a shore where nothing can touch it.I took my to a shore and luckily they can go on pretty shallow waters so the megalodon‘s backed up and then I went back to my base and then requested the basilo.
Where can you find this in valguero?
On mobile, there is usually at least one around herbivore island
These are passive! they will SLOWLY swim away, but they have mantas and icthys surrounding them, like always.
Thought this guy was a Ko so I spent fifty trank arrows trying to nock him out... I ended up drowning😂
Hello. On ragnarok, the basilo spawns around the blue pestle.
