ARK: Survival Evolved & Ascended Companion
Tips & Strategies
So basically the way u tame this is to wait for it to dig down under the sand and make what looks like
a mound. Once its under toss a grenade or c4 on the mound and bliw it out of the ground. Itll become stunned for only a few seconds so youll have to be quick. Run up and press whatever prompt it gives u and start riding it. Once on it has a control meter that will go down decently quick. Youll have to drive it into rocks to build up that control meter again and the torpor meter aswell. It will take a very long time to knock out but once it does you feed it normally. The denser the rock the better to drive it into.

ressource nodes give a lot more torpor than regular stones. and the salt and bone deposits in the deep desert have very little obstacles around to dismount you...
This tip is for anyone having trouble taming high level ones on consle, I was having trouble with taming my 135 last night too but there is a way. If you look on your map there is like very small little patches of green or black a lot of those little splotches contain salts nodes with do work so if you try to go from patch to patch hitting salt eventually you will get it, it may take more explosives that usual though so make sure to stock up hope this helps
A good spot to tame them is near the geen Obelisk on the Mountain. It has a ton of metal ores which give more torpor than normal ones.
Probably important to note, the rhyniognatha is the last creature coming to ark: survival evolved, the fasolosuchas is one of the new creatures coming to ark: survival ascended. Ascended is not ark 2, it is a remaster of ark, to make the dinos and environment look FAR better and also fix major performance bugs and cross play. There is a real life creature (so like lived at some point or is close enough to a real creature with a real creatures name😂) getting voted in for all the story arks, so island, scorched, aberration, extinction, and gen 1 and 2. I’m still uncertain if the rhynio is for the island, or lost island, because they did the scorched vote, and next is ab so I think the rhynio is the last ASE creature and also the new island creature, orrr they are doing the island vote last or something but the rhynio dossier mentioned dinopithicus so that leads me to believe it’s for lost island.. anyway one of the islands maybe both 🤷🏻♂️
Also someone said, and im paraphrasing I can’t remember the actual quote but “it’s just a dumb croc the spider should’ve won” ok first the “spider” was in the vote as well I think it got third.. anyway it is a “jumping spider” that was supposed to have tranq venom, but it looks like a furry tarantula, it’s actually pretty cute on the dossier… anyway nooo why would you think that should’ve won, hey don’t get me wrong I’m a fan and I’d tame and breed the heck out of these way more than fasolo, but for scorched a furry adorable spider on.. scorched uhh no plus if it was for scorched wildcard would make it a burrowing spider most likely and we would have basically the same creature as the fasolo. But on the other hand, the creator of the creature said they are reposting it for aberration, NOW THATS WERE WE NEED IT! It would be amazing for ab, it would fit in with the bioluminescent area perfectly and they could make it scale the walls! If another entry for ab wins the community is making the ol phantom mistake. (if you catch my reference) or the other creature was really really good, like the best creature ever. But I mean I feel like it’ll get in for ab because one it’s adorable but deadly like it can knock you out wile your fighting nameless (that would suck) and ab most creature submissions are not really aberrations type of creatures but hey we could be surprised. Also I feel like as far as size it should be like just big enough to be rideable like a bit bigger than oraneo, because it’s for taming specificly and I for one like compact but helpful tames like the desmodus.
Ok this turned out to be more about the spider than the fasolo but I mean cmon this big gator will blow over real quick outside of pvp (inside oh ya) but we need more creatures that are useful for pve not just tanky carnivores, problem is big reptilian carnivores look cool so half the voters go off of that 😂 but the fasolo was the right choice for scorched
Also for the bastion beetle fans, I personally don’t get the obsession, but I think it could be kinda cool on extinction and I hope the cryolophosaurus comes back (that’s a real creature right?) it was a great idea it would be cool on gen 1s arctic..

A great tip if you are able to get someone to scout ahead to find salt. You can hit patches of salt nodes for really big torp.
Suggestion: Faso is able to un-smelt iron by crunching it up. It would have a button similar to the "seed fruits" that the iguanadon has. It would be useful for crafting things that require raw metal, or maybe it would be a decent way to sort metal out. It could also have a special item called "fasolasuchus plates" that would be used on the saddle. The saddle could provide protection from sandstorm, and give the rider a temperature buff.
If you are on a server that has crazy high levels the just don’t these things will have upwards of 50,000 torpor
Seen a few people question the taming process, no it shouldn’t be as bad as the carchar you have to use explosives to knock it out or weaken it or whatever, then you have to ride it and make it crash into a rock. It sounds fun to me

You have to stalk it from a far in a ghillie suit then when it burrows in the sand throw a explosive at the sand dune it creates the hop on its back and ram it's head into rocks to knock it out but don't hit to many at once or it will knock you off
Fasolasuchus spawns in the southwest part of scorched anywhere near the coloseum... some are buried looking like a big purlovia others roaming attacking everything on sight.... being on a wyvern wich used to be seen as alpha and not being attacked will also be attacked by Fasolasuchus.

I saw someone say how are you gonna ride this thing well you could ride it like a thorny dragon were the saddle or a elevated off of the dinosaur.
After it hatches, it eats raw meat. Also when taming, metal gave a level 10 half torpor so it's much better than stone.
According to the dossier you will need to use explosives to weaken it and run it into a rock but take this with a grain of salt
If you wa T to know how to tame it f ing blow it up and ride it like a f ing cowboy and smash it into a bunch of f ing rocks
I can’t wait for this to come to ASA. Btw I think the fasola is ASA exclusive so I don’t think it will come into ASE or so I heard (ASA = ark survival ascended and ASE = ark survival evolved) Hope you are all excited too.
My question is how are you going ride this thing, the spine runs down the whole back, unless it is a side saddle, it is going to be painful.
Not sure how it will be ingame yet, but according to the submission, it will live in Scorched Earth (and likely desert regions of other maps) and be similar to the bloodstalker in terms of sacrificing tames for effectiveness. The fasolasuchus takes great joy in crunching up armored creatures, so you must sacrifice tames such as carbonemys, stego, kentro (the fasola won’t be damaged) and rock elemental (it’s the most effective). It will be waiting with its jaws open in the sand, so send your tame over and watch it get thrashed. You get more effectiveness for more durable creatures, so investing health points and strong saddles will help. You can sacrifice more creatures for better taming effectiveness. Once you’re happy with the taming effectiveness, simply knock it out and feed (I’m assuming it won’t lose effectiveness when being tranqed). Thank you for reading 😁
