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.Updoote so people know.

When taming remember TO FEED IT BIO TOXIN IT TAMES A LOT FASTER

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.

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^^

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!!

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 😁

I don’t see why it is a passive tame

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.

Breeding is much like frogs, lay eggs underwater that can't be moved. Imprint young when they hatch.

Nice glowing pets that kill piranhas in the river

Easily tamable in Valgueros aberration section as water is shallow and you can literally stand right beside it and feed.

Riot armor for torpor reduction and increased oxygen to chase them down recommended

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.

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

Their shock can be dangerous so I suggest throwing a sacrifice to use it’s shock ability. When it is cooling down it’s shock quickly feed it the bio toxin and flee. Repeat this process until tamed.

You need a few bio and a basilo

Dear ark please give us a Faraday suit yours truly ~ a stunned survivor

EXTREMELY easy tame. Simply grab an itchy (bc there fast) and tame one with bio toxin. Don’t hit it bc it’s a passive tame. Just feed it, go to the surface for oxygen and repeat till it’s tamed. **NOTE : be extremely careful while feeding it, make sure you don’t eat the bio toxin bc you will be knocked out and drown**
