Tips & Strategies
Forget using tames to bait one of these, if you’re on Gen2 just use your tek suit to swim, else use scuba gear using cactus broth (so only the eel goes for you).
This method is probably the easiest way to take one of these and requires next to no mats except a dino to get you there:
1. Make a wooden cage
2. Place it underwater
3. Kite the electro and swim over and on the opposite side if the cage so the eel is following you but swims directly into the open cage
4. Close the cage door
5. Float anywhere where you see the taming bar and not ‘open’
6. Chill out and enjoy your new electro
I did this on gen2 and the eel can not break the cage, easy tame, up this so everyone can see.
Good luck 😁
If you see a swarm of them, run. They have pack bonus and will constantly shock you or your mount and knock you mount out. They will feed on your dreams!
Basilos can't be stunned by this.
Wait
These guys can be tamed??
Nice glowing pets that kill piranhas in the river
Make sure you bring stimberries. I made that mistake. The eels don’t deal much torpor alone, but if you are feeding it biotoxin and accidentally eat it, you will quickly get knocked out.
Dear ark please give us a Faraday suit yours truly ~ a stunned survivor
Fun fact;
Electrophorus gets is name from the part of an electric eel’s scientific name- electrophorus electricus
IT ISNT WORTH IT TO TAME THESE. Let me explain…
I tamed at least 3 of them and they all died bc things lik mantas and mega came to kill them… they last for a short period of time…
Umm.. just don’t eat the bio toxin while doing this I tried and ate it twice. Thankfully I went to shore before a fainted
Masstame 150's til you got 25 of them, use them together with a swarm of 50 mantas backed up by mateboosted basils, mosas and tusos.
Absolutely insane, ofc have them covered by some tek and heavies set on players only.
Have them all following a passive tame on low distance (could be an angler), and have them set on attack-my-target, and aggro range high.
Have a trapped tame as scout on aggressive and aggro range high, when it aggro towards any dinos or players, it will send the whole force to kill and stun the target, when target is out of range or dead, they will come back to base.
Easily tamable in Valgueros aberration section as water is shallow and you can literally stand right beside it and feed.
To easily tame these head to crysle isle goto the shard island then theres bubbles filled with these kill few jelly fish harvest toxin then boom tame them super easy tame on crysle isle
