Taming & KO Tips

How do I tame a basilosaurus? Tips and strategies on taming and knocking out a basilosaurus.
Takes longer than 5 mins.i tamed a 145.i killed a sheep and I had salt in my pocket.the mutton spoil timer was 20 mins.the mutton spoiled before it was just about halfway tamed.luckily I had 40 cooked mutton to finish it.when tamed it stood up with 15k health 270ish melee.health goes up just under 1k each bump.so this thing is going to have a ton of health.i should easily be able to get 30k plus health
Go up to it don't mind the mantas
Next give raw meat it's a faster way
Then you have your own basilosaurus
OMG BE CAREFUL! THESE THINGS HAVE MANTA BODYGUARDS AND THEY'RE SUPER ANNOYING. Tip on finding these guys? Ya know the rocky island in the southern islets? I found one there once.
The things you gonna need for this tame-
-bug repellent
-soothing balm
-lazurs chowder or scuba armor
-therizino kibble
-and a dolphin
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?
I had a op raptor (in creative) and it had like 50000 Mela and i pumpd up how much resources you can get so I got like 10 stacks of oil
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
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 😊
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.
