Here’s a tip! Take a Baryonyx out and stun all of the creatures around it! Try not to hit the Bassey, all the others will follow you and you can easily stun and kill them all! Have kibble or preferred taming method in you last item slot! Put you Barry on follow and just feed ‘em! 😌👍🏻 HAPPY TAMING!!

I recommend using a sarco, or a high damage icthy.

1. Gather food of choice, and a fast or high damage water mount. Scuba Gear is NEEDED.

2. Using your mount, find a Basilo, go up to it and aggro the stingrays (if their aren’t go to step three), swim not to far, turn around and kill al the stingrays(there are a lot!).

3. Once all the mantas/stingrays are gone, go up to the basilo, get off your mount, and feed it your food of choice (foods options are in taming tab).

4. Repeat feeding process until tamed

Happy Taming!

Ez tame, passive tame, don’t be scared of it

Instructions:

1. Get your itchy so Megalodons, and eels and or jellyfish don’t get you

2.Get a therizenosaurus kibble

3. Find

4. Once found just swim beside it and put the kibble and a whole pile of meat

5. Successive. Grab the saddle and enjoy a badass time and eat everything

Ps don’t go in deep water or it will take oxygen dmg

They Commonly Spawn Near The Shores Of Herbivore Island And Can Rarley Spawn In Hebivore Islands Cove They Are A Passive Tame And Prime Meat Is A Fairly Good Feeding Source Make Shaur To Kill Of Any Megalodons In The Area And Finish Of All The Manta Rays Following It Before Approaching

How to tame yourself a basilosaurus :

1- You can find a basilosaurus near the beaches.

2- They're surrounded by mantas that act as their guards, in order to be able to tame it you must kill his guards using a decent sea creature (Barynox,Sarco,Megladon).

3- Once you kill the mantas, get close to it and feed it raw prime meat (Its a passive tame).

4- Beware! dont ever hit the basilo otherwise the taming will restart i also advice having your tame on passive so it doesn't accidentally hit the basilo, changing the food type will also restart it too.

5- The basilo starves every 10 to 4 seconds so it won't take that long just keep protecting yourself from any impending hordes of sea creatures.

6- Once tamed you can get into sea caves without having to worry about getting dismounted by a Jellyfish or the electric fish anymore so you can start killing jellyfishes for biotoxin, also they produce oil, its the best tame to go to sea caves with!

I found a max level basi at the shores of the South West tropical islands right next to my base. Roughly 80, 30. Ofcourse it had the usual mantas and a couple of Megalodons. But I was able to take them out in the air with a compound bow and sinomacrops. Afterthat, easy taming. Use exceptional Kibble for faster taming! They take a long time to get hungry the second time. After that, itll tame quickly

This is how I tamed mine and you can prob do the same

What I used-

. Mastercraft crossbow+ stone arrows

. Full set of SCUBA gear plus extra SCUBA tank

. Extraordinary kibble (I had a bunch and it gives same effectiveness as exceptional kibble when taming basilo)

. My lvl 141 sarco with levels pumped into damage and health

How I did it

Found a high level basilo, swam up to it, and hit one of the mantas near by. Once I did all of the mantas went aggro and followed me on my sarco. Once I killed then all I swam up to basilo and fed kibble. After that I waited for it to get hungry again and while I did I killed some more mantas/megs that were swimming near by. I’m not taking any chances. Once it was hungry again i fed it until it was tamed.

Also, when using kibble, if you feed a creature any rarity of kibble that is above its preferred kibble it will have the same effectiveness. I used extraordinary kibble when taming my basilo, and basilos prefer exceptional kibble so it did the same thing. Sorry if it was confusing but I hope this helps. Happy taming!

Fun fact I found real useful, I have my base in the herbivore island and there's LOADS of these guys around. I know a lot of ppl say it's hard to tame but reality is (at least for mobile, not sure about pc or console) that if u don't want the mantas to attack, feed the Basi off a back of an aquatic tame. According to the dossier, the mats follow the basi to eat and once a player comes near they see it as a threat. But if another water tame comes it'll ignore, and let u tame the basi. I currently have 3 and I'm only level 41 on solo, very quick to tame, I recommend normal meat over fish meat if Ur a low level just cuz they tame faster for some reason. And what's more to these beasts, I don't have a saddle but at least now I already have access to oil, cuz this guy produces it, making kibbles as easy as ever. Hope it helps and have fun taming Ur basi :)
