Tips & Strategies
!!!find any animal you may have lost on mobile !!!!!!
Go to your profile and it should say tames _/_ tap that and then it will show you all the animals you’ve tamed that are alive. Then go to the one you lost and hit request! Hope this helps anyone who needs it.
Do not try taming near any shoreline. Every time one takes my food, it immediately regrets human interactions and commits harikiri by touching land.
Me and some other people made a mistake... SORRY!!! They tame way faster with normal raw meat than fish meat. I would recommend dodo kibble though, just to be honest!
Tame it at herbivore island, there is a circle in the middle of the island where there are alot of them and they are trapped so it is easy to tame
Acctually i tamed one in ark mobile and it these guys dont jump😑😑😑 but the BEST PART of the icthy when harvesting that they collect so much hide! SO MUCH HIDE THAT I CRAFTED A TRIKE SADDLE
Easy, great tame!
Things to note before taming:
-feeding one causes others to appear
-they have bad health and melee damage, but make up for it in speed
-best fighters against megalodons in packs
Here’s how to tame:
Find ichthyosaurus away from dangerous creatures like mantas and megalodons. You also will want one near the shore. Next, put raw meat (prime or reg.) in slot 0. Swim and approach the ichthy. It will be curious. Quickly feed it meat. Prime meat sometimes tames an ichthy instantly on taming multiplier three. Make sure it was away from Megs! Any megs around will now try to attack you sea creature. If attempting to take one near dangerous creatures, bring an ichthy saddle so you can hop right on and swim to safety. Your new ichthy probably will cause others to appear. If so, you should tame them. You could have a pack of 8 with upgraded melee damage and health, and they could easily beat a megalodon!
These guys are helpful but... I tried taking one and it took me 50 minutes and I had to stay there so it wouldn't touch land. Awesome once tamed. I named it MR.SIR. 1 like = 1 love for MR.SIR
O M G COOL TIP!(MOBILE PLAYERS)
Once you have tamed and Ichthy get a saddle, ride the ichthy and bam you see a meg does it aggro you? No. See a spino does it aggro? No. MOBILE PLAYERS GET A FREE WORLD TO THEMSELVES TO EXPLORE! With the ichthy. Beware if you get off the ichthy uhm, let’s just say if you were near an aggro to human creature it’ll attack you. Soooooo I hope you guys can officially explore your home island with the ichthy! (It works I did it)
Good parts about ichyosaurus (mobile) - THESE FEATURES ARE ONLY IN MOBILE AND I HAVE NOT TESTED ON COMPUTER
1. You can hold a item while riding it. So you can tame things while riding it or get oil from underwater.
2. If you got ascendant saddle from quest and have high level ichy, they'll be extremely powerfull
3. Dodo kibble tames them very fast. Ingredients:Cooked meat, mejoberries, rockarrots, fiber, water, dodo kibble
Go to herbivore island (The island) at the right bottom. Go to map if unsure. Look around and you should find some itchyosaurus. But be careful, in the water they look like sharks, don’t mistaken them as sharks they have a pointed snout. Like if you found it helpful! :)
I have killed so many megalodons, trikes, stegos, carbonemys, sarcos, and even theris. They are deadly things. If you can get one and get a saddle for it, then nice job, you have an oceanic friend that can easily harvest fish meat and normal meat, also keratin. Another thing is that nothing seems to agro on you while your on it, although, sometimes they fight back, other times, the creature won’t attack. For example, a therizinosaurus. Just make sure not to attack any glowing jellyfish.
RIP Iggy the itchy 😢
I now have itchyna to help me 🙂
Ok so I was taming an icthy for xp from the quest, and it actually tames quicker with normal meat. So when you are taming, feed them normal meat. It was faster for me on mobile.
