First use a Baryonyx to stun all the mantas and itchys, then just kill them

You can use a Baryonyx to easily dispose of the Mantas with the stun attack. After that, this is a very easy tame.

I highly recommend the Basilosaurus - great for collecting bio toxin, very tanky and recovers health very fast when near the surface.

Easy tame just kill the mantas and you're good very powerful Dino for there size too, and ideal in caves

Stay close and keep feeding the basilosaurus. Straying to far can reset the taming meter. If the taming meter resets your taming effectiveness leaves off where you left off. If this happens your best to kill it and try with a new basilosaurus.

This tame is best to do with multiple people, or about 3-4 water Dinos. Every time you feed it,you'll aggro all mantas and sharks in the area.raw prime spoils super fast so tribe mates will need to make extra runs for it.

I experimented with taming a level 5 of this guy on an Icthy. Just thinking on experimenting with the taming effectiveness of raw meat and raw fish meat. Fed it on my Icthy (not dismounted) with raw fish meat first. It got if I remember correctly 6 mantas with it. The mantas tried to locate me but were unsuccessful so they patrolled around for a while. They never located me then I accidentally hit the basil with Icthy trying to kill the mantas. The mantas ran away leaving me free to tame it. P.S. They didn’t come back to the basil.

Before you can passive tame it, you'll need to kill off all of the mantas that swarm around it. A low level Plesiosaur can easily get the mantas' attention and clear them out without much hassle.

Took a lonv time to eat the second, but after that it started eating really fast.

Why r u all trying to kill the predators around it? I just got an itchy, tamed it, put on its saddle, rose to the surface and watched as I killed all of the megs like it killed my family!

When I tried to tame this beautiful basilo, I was taming it with cooked meat. I got to 95% on taming, but then the tame bar started to rapidly decrease. When your taming a basilo remember, use theriz kibble... (don’t do what I did...)

Have Fun <3

Make sure to kill all the sea pancakes before attempting to tame as they do NOT like you getting close. An easy tame once you get rid of the threats.

Taming bar started dropping for unknow reason. Must need to tame it quickly. They give a bunch of oil if you kill them but x plants for so.e reason don't want to Target it for more than a hit or two at a time.

Take a rifle and snipe the mantas...Problem solved

On genisis there are no mantas guarding them so it’s a free water mount basically

If your on genesis, it’s easiest to do some wave ray missions to get some focal chilli and then go swimming to look for your basilosaurus. Once you have found it, you can begin the passive tame due to the speed buff. Make sure your inventory isn’t full and that you make sure there aren’t too many mantas around because you’ll have to slaughter a couple.

Tame with raw prime fish meat NOT just fish meat! This will just make the tame percentage creep down when you want it to go up. ( at least on mobile)

Ignore the comments saying you need anything. Tame these naked on Genesis with raw meat quick and easily. Theres 0-1 mantas and after they aggro on you after the first feed kite them away and they will reset far enough away that you can easily continue your tame with boosted swimming and oxygen. Refill stam in bubbles or surface close by. Buy your meat from HLNA for a near free top tier tame. (Swim up and down to dodge the mantas as you kite)

I’m taking a level 10 one at herbivore island with just a level 12 bary and a level 30 Diplo with levels only in oxegen and the tame is going well

As soon as you feed one of these the first time all the surrounding mantas will swarm you! Bring a baryonyx to wipe them out before they do it to you!

Bring a water Dino with high health and melee
