When Taming: DO NOT CHANGE THE FOOD YOU ARE USING TO MAKE IT GO FASTER, IT WILL DRAIN IT’S PROGRESS. Ex: Using meat then switching to prime then back to meat.
Basilosaurus
The Basilosaurus is a dolphin-like creature that primarily dwells along the shallow areas of the ocean. It has the ability to keep survivors warm or cool.
How ARK players tame and knock out the Basilosaurus: what to feed it, what to knock it out with, and how to keep it safe.
Use a bary to get rid of the mantas, just shoot one with a crossbow from a distance to aggro them all and you can just stun them and kill them, easiest way to get rid of the mantas, got one tamed without scuba gear
To tame this creature you need an Ichyosaurus, because nothing will attack you if you are riding it. It takes a while for it to to start the second feeding. Also, make sure you’re using the same food or the taming process will restart. A must-have to get biotoxin, because…

Also, make sure you’re using the same food or the taming process will restart. A must-have to get biotoxin, because they are torpor immune. Will receive damage if you go to far down, but rapidly gains health at the surface. If playing on mobile, go to unofficial server called (Official) Pearl’s Legacy. -KingJadon08
If the basilosarus is surrounded by creatures kill them so they won’t get in your way and try to build a pen so then don’t wander off if there in a pool like the one in herbivore island
While taming the Basilosaurus you need to have a underwater dino to make it easier to swim back up and get air and the Basilosaurus is a slow taming process so do be patient.
Be careful while trying to take these guys because when you try to feed them while there are mantas around it then all hell breaks loose
For the people who are having a really hard time taming this creature and it’s tame bar resetting when that happens I recommend using some prime meat and kibble anything that can make the taming percentage high I used a smoothing balm 10x in ark mobile got a 10x taming boost…

When you feed the basilosaurus yo will notice “Red mist” come from its mouth, this must attracts nearby water carnivores like megalodon to you so be careful and maybe bring some body Guards when taming this thing
If you wanna tame a good level Whale without waste sources gathering a Bary, you can Just use a fast mount tho hit mantas around the Whale and then make they follow you tho a secure distance from Basilossaurus.
This is by far one of the best water tames, has insane health regen and if you boost melee you can easily solo kill mosa and tuso alphas, good for jellyfish because cant be stunned. And keeps you warm underwater!
So I was feeding it with the mantas still alive, that ended up with a couple of inactive specimen implants. When I finally got it, The mantas ended up killing the damned basilo. So, don't keep the manta's alive.
The easiest way to tame this whale is to bring a Baryonyx with ya to deal with the manta's and sharks and to wear scuba gear. Once the sharks and manta are dead just passive tame the whale with either prime meat or Theriz Kibble.
I use an archelon to tame these. It kills the entourage, gives you oxygen, and can just roll along with the basi as you hop off and feed it
When taming the time between the first and second feed takes forever. To avoid this move well out of render and back again and it will be ready to feed 👍 Also upon your return be sure to kill everything in the area before continuing. Essentially an under water rex. great all…

You can not feed basilos while riding a ichty (dolphin). You have to dismount (at least on Xbox and PS4) and if you dismount and feed the basilo the mantas will try to kill you.
Once you're able to passively feed the basil, I repeat DON'T LEAVE IT ALONE!
The first feeding is at least a 5 min wait, but once you get to the other feedings you'll have to constantly feed it every 8 seconds or else you’ll lose taming progress.
Try not to die when feeding it
I’m planning to tame this guy so I cannot to be scared of them
it helps people get out of fear of jellyfish
This guy does not like to swim alone so he stays with his manta friends be careful
Pro Tip: Basi’s won’t spawn with a whole gang of mantas on Gen 1 map, making it much easier to tame. You also have increased oxygen and swim speed in Gen 1’s Ocean Biome so you won’t need scuba gear and you can outswim Megalodons easily.
