HOW TO ESCAPE

If you see one of these trying to get somewhere on a raft your main choice to escape is to rush to the nearest shore. I did that when I was a noob and nearly lost my entire raft to it.

HOW TO KILL

There are multiple things to do to trying to kill it here are your option

1. Get something stronger like a mosasaur so you could kill it

2. Get a metal raft and a ranged weapon since the Leedsichtyhs van only break wood making it nearly impenetrable.

3. The last thing you can do is to get your strongest underwater weapon and attack it at full might.

They don’t eat rafts on mobile. Try it if you don’t believe me

Trap one close to your base or next to your base and boom! Infinite meat!!!! Use behemoth gateways or structure's that they can't break. That's all thx.

Yeah... you know the Titanic? Well, it wasn't actually an iceberg. You want tips when on a raft? Hope you're close to land when you find it, or have a strong water tame with you.

These things are great if you want to get a LOT of raw prime fish meat. They give 50 per scrape. They are found mainly around herbivore island! If you can’t find any go on a giant murder spree and kill all the feesh in the water, one will spawn eventually! They are passive and won’t attack (unless you attack them first) but they WILL eat your boats. Just swim up to them with a dino on mobile and tap them to scrape off their meat (you can scrape every 10 minutes). I recommend trapping them for easier access.

To tame give it your boat so abandon ship

The alpha is same as normal just white and bigger I'm on mobile the first one I saw 100x bigger than a megalodon was white and the next one I saw was at herb island and it was 30x bigger than megalodon also on mobile they don't have to much a taste for raft and it's hotbox is at its anus you can scrape fish meat off normals and prime fish off alphas very useful untameable giant

If you use the ForceTame command you can actually tame the leedsichthys and its VERY powerful

Actually leedsichthys is tameable but this is only in PC. To tame it in PC, come near it, then press tab then type "cheat forcetame" near the leedsichthys, make sure it does not get away, and done! its tamed and you can still scrape prime fish meat from it and you can ride it!

(This can only be done in non-mobile devices).

(You cannot do this in mobile)

these thing might deadly to deal with, however in mobile they can't deal damage to player and tame (except ralf).

They have some in the ocean next to the desert in lost island.

Nearly broke my raft and broke the box that had 400+ Metal in it my tribe mate had to try swim to a island.

Lesson: Don’t go anywhere near these whales

RemcoTheQuick

These guys don’t attack you they will only attack in sElF dEfEnSe and it can make big boi meat but these guys are gigas of the sea dont act like it is also it isn’t tamable

so if u find one of these dont worry about them beigng dangorous they dont do anything to u just dont punch it and someone plz tell me how to tame one of these

Looks like the size of a Ichthyosaur but it’s a whale

I was just whith my freind on ark and we discovered that you could make rafts so we set off sailing to herbivour Island and all was going well until we were attacked by an alpha leedsichthys and it killed us and 1 of are megs. So never sail a raft of deep waters because whales don't like rafts and you'll probably die or lose 1 of your sea dinos.

Dear user who encountered a wild (Alpha) Leedsichthys

An alpha leedsichthy aggression is (defensive) meaning it will do little or no damage at all but it will be aggressive to any rafts or boats. The Alpha Leedsichthys is the ONLY Alpha that will not increase in size, but rapidly increasing in its health difference. And the largest fish in the treacheous ocean.

Hey Ark devs, can we pleeeease have this tamable? I think they could have a platform saddle and essentially be a ferry boat to take tames, goods, etc. to oversea places without having to make multiple trips and risking your raft getting destroyed or your mosa getting killed/ getting stuck in a f*cking rock because you were too fast for it to load in. I also just personally think that it looks cool.

These things and tusos are the only things that drop prime fish meat on mobile when killed.

These things will destroy the heck out of your raft. I was with one of my tribemates, and we lost EVERYTHING to it. Fabricator, smithy, dodo's, obsidian, everything. But if you stay next to shore with your raft, they will leave you alone. Though they won't attack you unless your on a raft. So this shows how dangerous the ocean is on the Ark. So stay frosty.

I scraped meat off of the Leedsichtys and a Peiosaur killed me. Not sure why, I didn’t hit it, is it aggressive?
