These can come as alphas. I did not know this untill I came across it. Destroyed my boat in 2 bites. Where as a standard one destroys a boat in 4 bites
This is a passive aggressive creature so it doesn't attack you unless you are on a boat or you attack it and i think on super rare occasions it attacks you when you scrape meat (i dont actually know about that) they only spawn in open water but can be lured into shallows these things are not able to be tamed unless you have the cheat key or a special mod
They spawn mostly at herbivore island (bottom right of the island) and they only attack rafts/motorboats so be careful you can also scrape meat off of them for food which is pog
These big fishies while untameable are useful because you can harvest meat from they're body, however if you have to pass through open water where these big fined snot goblins run amuck use something that flies or that can send these fat fish and chip ripoffs into the grasp of oblivion in a few clicks, and quick tip, dont cross they're path on a raft... i learnt that the hard as did so many others...
On genesis and you choose the "chasing the whale" mission or something idk what its called. If you have decent speed you can dodge it's attacks. I'd recommend a Tek bow and a Tek rifle so you can hit it underwater. Have a good day surviving people😁
Carful they like to attack rafts
You can Ride It fav. Food is a fist full of forcetame
On the Island South zone 1 I found on two occasions one doing a head stand on the beach so I killed it and got a good amount of xp
These demons of the sea do not care about your feelings, they will destroy your boat and everything you love.
If you do get chased by one, try to go close to shore but 9 times out of 10 they will just 1 shot your raft.
If you are planning on trapping one of these; Build the trap 3X what you think will work and it probably still wont fit.
Captain there a mighty fine whale along the boat shell we drop the boat yes
Aright lads like go fish for that leedsichthys she a mighty fine prize
I was restating because I was a noob and my first thought was to go to herbevore island i went on a raft and when I got there thankfully I saw one stuck in the middle of the island in the small pool there’s one right next to my base it’s an alpha version (if anyone wondered yes there are alpha versions)he just chills there we coexist now so yeah he hasn’t moved in a while so I got a friend.i know killed the one stuck and took that spot for my water tames so my mega anglers basilo and plesiosaur live there.(I also forgot to say my ichosourus and manta and sorry for any misspelled words and that’s it)
Found an alpha and 3 more of these guys down in the icy waters, my most killed em all FRESH MEAT
They are too slow to catch you when you are on a dolphin
These things... these MONSTERS... THEY DESTROYED HOURS OF WORK!
Basically, if you are going to make a boat base, turrets are a must. These thing go out of their way to destroy rafts and motorboats.
This fker just distroyed my raiding raft, lost so mush look and time. So an advice, don't keep so much loot on rafts
I’m pretty sure motor boats attract alphas more commonly.
