What are tips for ichthyosaurus? Tips and strategies for ichthyosaurus in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
This might sound really crazy, but this is probably the best water tame you can get on ark. Not at all good for attacking but it is great in terms of its speed and agro. First of all, these things are really fast so you can basically outrun any water dino, as well as get around the island fast if you are in a hurry. Second, nothing will agro on these guys as long as you are riding them (not sure about tuso tho). So it makes exploring underwater very safe and fun. Third, they are very easy, passive tames and have a relatively easy saddle to make. Hands down my best underwater tame unless you count the baryonyx. Quick tip tho: They eat a lot on the run so make sure you have plenty of fish meat for him
Im on mobile and was doing the pursuit for this one didnt actually know what it looked like could only see mega piranha and ca-whatever then i saw this croc thing so i thought maybe its more friendly than it looks and it was a scaro and chased me onto the beach i then just started spearing it got it to half health died then came back to see a triceratops kill it and leave me the rewards
Electrophorus' attack these, despite what ark wiki says. While mounted I passed one and got electrocuted and almost had her die.
So never Be Near A Megalodon cause I Saw One And Ran
And I saw One Get Eaten alive Also They are Crazy fast
At the time of writing this, the dex says simple kibble, it's regular.
Can be found on West shores, prepare your dodo egg kibble and tame it
All I had to do when taming it was find one and follow it around on a raft while feeding it
After the first feeding the itchy will swim away, but it comes back soon to play with you, so be prepared to spam feeding button if it is close to you...try to move a little bit in it‘s direction
If you don't have a trap nearby, flippers are a must for this tame, also found hovering on a griffin between feeds to keep track of it is very useful!!!
When I tamed my first one that was a Lvl 115 I got it stuck in a rock then then I slapped meat to its face.
Ignore people who say try and trap it...yet fail to mention how to. Talk about a bandwagon.
By far the best way is Dodo kibble, it's well worth going through all the effort.
The two harder ingredients to gather are dodo eggs (female dodos tame) and rock carrot (you can get a Pegomastix to fetch you some seeds by setting it to wander, then plant them in a medium pot.
