I tamed a lvl 150 and it actually killed two alpha mosa at once granted we barely survived but still impressive and a must have in the ocean.
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.

What ARK players use the Basilosaurus for, and how to get the most out of it in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
Honestly one of the best mounts. It takes on swarms of megaladon as if they were dodos and it doesn’t get stunned by jellyfish or eel. With it you can also farm oil from others basically making it the best underwater mammal. Also it’s cute, so an added bonus! I’ve named…
Honestly one of the best mounts. It takes on swarms of megaladon as if they were dodos and it doesn’t get stunned by jellyfish or eel. With it you can also farm oil from others basically making it the best underwater mammal. Also it’s cute, so an added bonus! I’ve named mine Marshmallow and on it the sea isn’t very scary.
Pro Tip (Herbivore Island): If you don’t have an Argentavis, you can use one of these guys to transport items to the main land, they have about 700 carry capacity at only level 10!
Me thicc
Me mini mosa
Me make mantas minions
Me very powerful
Just One of the OBRIGATORY TAMES FOR ANY TRIBE! It can be used for different objectives, Like farming oil(Yes, he have the ability to produce natural oil!) And farming biotoxine, once it isnt affected by the stun effect of the jellyfishes. It’s a greater defence than a…
Just One of the OBRIGATORY TAMES FOR ANY TRIBE! It can be used for different objectives, Like farming oil(Yes, he have the ability to produce natural oil!) And farming biotoxine, once it isnt affected by the stun effect of the jellyfishes. It’s a greater defence than a Megalodon, due to it’s HUGE hp and moderated damage. Also, it protects you from high and low temperatures, then you can explore the ocean at night too! Simply One of the BEST tames for solo! 0% Hype, 1000% useful!
Ah yes, the sea pickle is immune to cnideria shock
Who thinks these guys need a platform saddle?
I can only say that this guy is a legend. No one can win them in sea if you breed them with 3x stats. 160% speed and nearly 30k hp is really sick. You can easily clear any underwater cave.
Special trait: mantas and ichys will surround the basilosaurus, protecting it. (When you feed the basilosaurus on a non-water creature, like a sarco, the mantas will attack, so be careful). Pro tip: find them on herbivore island, in the bay.
Produce oil, immune to electro chock
The best marine mount if it was faster
In ARK: SURVIVAL EVOLVED MOBILE, these guys can also make oily ink like the tusoteuthis(I am not sure with the other arks though). Refinable too already. Need not taming a tusoteuthis anymore ‘cause this guy does that work. Got one named Dolphy and he produces oily ink every…
In ARK: SURVIVAL EVOLVED MOBILE, these guys can also make oily ink like the tusoteuthis(I am not sure with the other arks though). Refinable too already. Need not taming a tusoteuthis anymore ‘cause this guy does that work. Got one named Dolphy and he produces oily ink every few minutes. Max stack is probably only 29.
The mantas don’t follow it to proteck it they follow to get the food they leave behind
They're the safest most care free marine mount you can get. Only down side is they're slow
I tamed one and it started making oil but the oil is purple but I take it out and more is made it looks like tuth oil
DROPS OIL WHEN KILLED SPREAD THE WORD
Want lots of fish meat? Well you’re in luck! Tame one of these bad boys and your set! (Warning mantas and megs follow these and will attack u when taming) once you got it tamed mount your fishy friend and kill Mantas,Fish,Megs,etc and you can get loads of fish meat!…
Want lots of fish meat? Well you’re in luck! Tame one of these bad boys and your set! (Warning mantas and megs follow these and will attack u when taming) once you got it tamed mount your fishy friend and kill Mantas,Fish,Megs,etc and you can get loads of fish meat! (Literally I just killed like 5 mantas and 2 megs and now I have 11 stacks of raw fish meat )
It is like diving with a guarantee. Nothing will scare you even if you have a low level of these beasts. Dont get too attached only danger is starving down there as you cant eat.
A little fact: If you have a basil and you are in the ocean and got dismounted from your mount (like an ichy) and you have a tamed basil with you , make him follow you and swim directly to the surface.The basil will follow you and push you up wards (if it doesn't, just…

Lost my girlfriend, almost got fired, lost a week of sleep, spent over a hundred bucks, but I did it. I raised a fifth generation Basilosaurus. I would say it’s definitely worth it considering it does about Giganotosaurus damage and we did the speed and stamina stats right…
Lost my girlfriend, almost got fired, lost a week of sleep, spent over a hundred bucks, but I did it. I raised a fifth generation Basilosaurus. I would say it’s definitely worth it considering it does about Giganotosaurus damage and we did the speed and stamina stats right and same for the hp and all. Really, it’s all we need nowadays. Btw fifth gens can kill alpha tusos if yer careful, well really if you did stats right no need to be careful.
Do not underestimate this tame. My lv 37 just took down a 120 alpha megladon. The surface heal buff is the real deal.
