What ARK players use the Basilosaurus for, and how to get the most out of it in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.

These thing are so good for oil while killing them gives more but taming them will passively make oil for you

When tamed it passively generates a natural version of oil that slowly spoils, unlike normal oil. Also, it can only generate up to 20 oil until you take the oil out of its inventory, then it will continue to generate oil. I’m on console by the way, not sure about mobile.

They produce a type of oil that decays over time. It can be refined like normal oil still

You want to tame one of these. I got a 145 one and when it was tamed it leveled to 217, now it has 50k hp. Plus they gather oil like the dunkel

The best aquatic tame second only to the gaint squid.

They are completely immune to jellyfish and eels and can rapidly regenerate health near the surface of the water, combined with an enormous health pool and good attack… Well you can honestly ignore Mosas and Plesis if…

This is a must have tame! Why? Well lemme tell you!

1:they are a really easy tame since there passive tamed so an easy noob tame

2:they are able to withstand a eel or jelly zap so you don’t get knocked of your mount(unlike the lucky noobs…RIP)

3:they are a passive oil…

When killed with dunk they give over 300 oil and only prime meat with over 100 hide too

The true king of the sea can kill anything if high level don’t go to deep or you will take damage kill other whales so you can get like 200 oil

IF YOU'RE LOOKING FOR BIO TOXIN THE BASILOSAURUS IS WHAT YOU NEED:

They are immune to jellyfishes, they have the ability to keep you warm or cold. But they cannot go very deep in the ocean before starting to get damage from water pressure.

Good source of oil if you hate the ocean. Just tame around 3 and have them by the shore, they will have oil in their invo, really quick too. Just take the oil and quickly use it, it spoils after a while

My tribe used the basilo for bringing materials to area far away into ocean with the help of baryonyx we we then able to build a floating city on the water

Basilo good for weight health and damage

I just tamed one and now I have slow but unlimited supply of oil

If you want a lot of oil you can just tame 4-5 of these guys they are easy to tame

3 points5 years oldReport

Tanks they tank. If you boosted hp a lot then your set. Also they and a good dps to and a oil farm.

DO NOT GO TO THE BOTTOM OF THE OCEAN WHEN INFINITESTATS IS ON because it will instantly die when you go to the bottom of the ocean because it has a crush depth
