How do I kill a ichthyosaurus? ichthyosaurus battling strategies in ARK: Survival Evolved.
guys be really carefull if you stay to close to the rock and thing like that ur ichthy might get stuck like mine
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
If you go near one and it starts to chase you its not mad they act like dolphins they just wanna be your friend
EELS AGRO TO ICHTHY NOW!!! Be careful, I learned the hard way.
(Mobile) The friendliest creature in the ocean and possibly the entire island. It will never attack you, even if you hit it repeatedly and have ammonite rage status on you. It might not seem cute to you, but you're a true monster if you kill them on purpose.
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! :)
Can be grabbed by the Kaprosuchus. If you're careful, you can walk around on land with the Ichthy in your grasp. If it touches the ground, it will die.
First time taking the Megalodon for a spin, thought they were aggressive when they swam up. Turns out they're just curious little guys then they'll swim away eventually.
Ok I have a question.
So I had 2 icthys and it was amazing, they didn’t make anything aggro,but 2 Brontie fell in the water and killed them accidently. So I had to get a new one. It took ages but I eventually tamed one. But as soon as it was tamed 2 megs attacked it. It barely survived, but out when I was taking another icthy with it all the megs and mantas started to attack it. I’m so confused the other ones didn’t make anything aggro
This will aggro megs and manta be carful on mobile
I don't know why but all creatures still attack me while riding the ichty.. :(
I’m pretty sure they make compy noises. I was trying to tame one and I kept hearing a compy, like really close. But it confused me because compys shouldn’t be underwater but nope, it’s an ichthyosaurus.
(I don’t know if it’s a bug or something but it’s kinda funny)
Ummm... so not everyone know this, easiest place to find the fish on The Island map is by going to the vegetarian dino island and searching the shores, it's gonna be dangerous, i will try to get more information on how deep they usually are
(Mobile)
I just discovered after getting attacked by a meg whilst mounting one of these, nearby wild ichthys will assist in attacking the meg :D!
They are the fastest water creatures
You can usually find these by the coast and occasionally in rivers. But watch out, they may attract sharks
for mobile players, tamed icthyosaurus’ don’t get attacked, ONLY if ur riding them
if u aren’t, make sure to have them somewhere safe, 5 of my icthy’s were murdered by megalodons and mantas
can yall stop being so hard on those ppl who lost their ichthy? back then, u couldn't request animals in water.
You would find them in the islands in shallow waters or in shallow rivers
I shat myself when I first saw this. I thought it was a shark! Lol
