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 you want, because they are completely outclassed.

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.

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.

I recommend taming a dolphin then tame the basilo on the dolphin

Apparently they do spawn on lost island it is just that they are super rare

They are shock resistant to the els

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.

Maybe I’m not feeding it right, but it’s taming speed drains so fast that you would need infinite prime raw fish meat tame it.

When killed with dunk they give over 300 oil and only prime meat with over 100 hide too

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.

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 swims close enough to them.

The thing with these archaeocetes is that they do not spawn at shallow waters yet not very deep either. And to make things worse, they can attract harems of hostile manta rays and ichthyosaurs to "feed on its leftovers" as mentioned in the dossier

Overall, make sure to bring one of your powerful water mounts to the spot, as you'll have to fight those off

They provide shock and temperature resistance, yet take damage at certain altitudes below the water

Yo, just a warning, and most of y'all prolly know this,but it's surrounded by Mantas...

Ok so use a Ichthyosaurus because mantas megs and basically everything ignores you so people dont die to the manta cult it has

This guy is a beast when collecting meat and fish meat and don’t forget that good biotoxin!

My tribe used the basilo for bringing materials to area far away into ocean with the help of baryonyx we we then able to build a floating city on the water

Basilo good for weight health and damage

If there is one with a lot of mantas around it you can use a baryonx get the mantas attention and bring them away to stun them then you can use it or something else (we used a lvl20 megalodon) to kill them all then just trail and feed the basilo until it is tamed
