Tips & Strategies
They are able to be tamed with anglergel anglers can be found in the same area as electrophis it lives in the snowy region and I recommend that you have a Meg or a icthy and it is best to tame a Meg with a crossbow or rifle with trank darts or arrows you should also have a full set of scuba gear and to tame the icthy you need to use any fish meat to tame it just stand in the water and wait for them to come to feed them and itβs the same thing with the eletrophis sit in the deep water and wait that is it for the tip I hope this helps you and every thing I said is from personal experience βπ»
More Electrophorus Taming & KO Tips
You should ride a Basilo,aggro the eels and then feed them.Usethe basilo cuz it is immune to the shock and is a huge TANK to widstand the tank.
To tame it you need a basliosaurus to be immune to the eletric shocks then feed it biotoxin (form cindarias) then you have alternative cindaria
Some taming info:
A tamed tuso can grab these amd a teammate can then feed it bio toxin.
They deal torpor damage.
They have an electric aoe attack that damages and stuns players. While stunned you can feed it if close enough and temporarely use stims and medical brews.
Even with flippers they will outswim you.
Rush in and feed while stunned(use stims and medical brews)
Their electric aoe slows and renders all creutures unable to attack with the exception of the basilosaurus.
Don't build under water near red on i
Made the mistake now I live under the water permanently as they killed my ichthyosaurs and megoladons and my best friend is a starfish
When a titanboa meets a troodon that meets a Cnidaria. Makes your life hell!!
Tame with biotoxin, it's realmente easy to get:).
(Tested in mobile)
1: find some Cnidaria, they spawn near the shore. (The glowing jellyfish, if you don't know how they look)
2: get in the water, then go out. they won't move for some seconds, but they will get closer to you. Do this until they get near the shore, where they can't get you.
3: kill them; DON'T GET TO CLOSER. They can shock you, and you won't move for some seconds. Normally they spawn in groups of 3.
4: farm the biotoxin, you can get around 13 from every corpse.
Idk if this can be also done in pc or console. Hope this helps!, up for more players to see it^^

Taming guide #1: Electhrophorus
1 find the electhrophorus you want to tame ( they usually spawn in group so be carefull)
2 Use a Basilosaurus because It Is immune to them or and High HP water mount ( i used Plesio )
3 aggro the eel
4 Let It Attack your Mount
5 feed It Biotoxin ( the eel moves a lot and do Area shock Attack so pay attention )
6 You Tamed your useless light fish π
These are passive tames. In my experience trying to tame a 145. You will find having a Basilosaurus will provide you with a mount immune to the shock.
Wear a combination of Riot and Scuba gear. Bring multiple sets. They will destroy your tanks and flippers if you get hit enough times. Lone eels do not deal enough torpor to be a substantial threat with the riot gear.
The hard part is feeding them. They will glow bright blue (without goggles on) when they have built up a charge, and charge you. Discharge a 7 second stun, bite and then flee.
Lure them into an enclosed area. Such as a trap for water tames or a river. This will reduce their mobility and make them an easier tame than in the open ocean. Because they will flee the majority of the tame if they have the room to do so.

I donβt see why it is a passive tame
Use a ichthyosaurus, get up close to it, and just feed it the bio toxin. No aquatic animal hurts ichies unless they are a spino or unless you attack or get close to the jellyfish. Hope this helps! :3
