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.

(SCROLL DOWN FOR TLDR, THIS POST IS LONG)

Since some people still seem to be confused, this creature is NOT coming to ARK: Survival Evolved. The last creature being added there is the Rhyniognatha. Rather, the Fasola is going to be the FIRST new creature for ARK: Survival Ascended, an upcoming remake of Survival Evolved running on the same game engine as ARK II. It is supposed to have higher quality graphics, some fixed bugs and exploits, and even some new models for certain things. The Fasola will be coming to Scorched Earth (and likely other maps with desert areas). There will also be another new real-world creature for each canon DLC map (Aberration, Extinction, and both parts of Genesis).

As for its use (subject to change from the original submission), it will mainly function as an armor-shredding living trap. It can bury in the sand (not in any other terrain), leaving only its jaws visible. It can grab and immobilize most creatures, even up to the size of a Yuty or Rock (note that large creatures take less time to escape). This dismounts the enemy creature’s rider if it has one, and while it can fight back, it does much less damage to the Fasola while being grabbed. As mentioned above, the Fasola is much stronger against “armored” creatures, including but not limited to Doedics, Ankys, Stegos, Kentros (immune to recoil damage from it), and Rock Elementals. The Fasola thrives in the heat of the desert, it gets buffed when it’s hot and gets weaker when it’s cold (it helps its rider resist the heat as well). It also resists sandstorms and fire attacks; however, it is vulnerable to explosives. It will also be a handy harvester, it can gather stone and metal and will likely have a high weight stat and/or have weight reduction on those materials. Finally, while able to be ridden without a saddle, you can give it an advanced saddle that has two slots for turrets and three seats (one “pilot” and two gunners). Note that it can only burrow without a saddle, as it impedes its movement.

tldr: The Fasola is coming to a REMAKE of ARK 1 rather than ARK 1 itself, it will be on Scorched and will be like a living, armor-shredding trap that can equip a turret saddle.

Thank you for reading!

They are in Abberation

(Totally not cuz I watched the newest episode of Syntac)

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...

I don’t think it will have the ability’s that it had in the vote. The reason for that is because wildcard has rarely kept the ability’s of Dinos from votes. some might make it through but as we saw with the rhynio almost none of the ability’s were mentioned in the dossier if not none. So I’m excited for it being added I put it at the top of my vote list and I hope your excited too. :)

Fasolasuchus Also Spawn on Aberration!

Just wondering if it can swim and make normal whirlpools in the water or if it’s completely useless outside of the dune area of deserts..

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

To tame you must but asc and tame it probly with meat, kibble or cooked fish meat if you are that guy

Hello if this is a knock out tame I will knock out a dev please don't be knock out or passive those take years even if carnivores take only hours

Spawn code is tree-dupe have fun

You dont need grenades you just need to do enough damage as its waking up

I was trying to kill one with my megatherium and it got dazed

Fasolo is a god at getting flint 9 rocks then I have 1500

On a 90% night, go out on surface with drake IMMEDIATELY as sun goes away, you have roughly 5 minutes to find a fasolasuchus and knock it out before reapers come out. Put kibble in its inventory and unrender it. Once it hits 5 am, go back out to fasolasuchus and cryopod!

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.

I have found like 90 on scorching earth

It’s an incredibly fun taming process ramming this guy’s head into salt rocks and trees after you just bombed his/her house

On official it’s so freaking hard to tame

It should be similar to the basilisk but faster and more silent

To tame run into a rock and that might help.
