Encountering Tips

How do I kill a leedsichthys? leedsichthys battling strategies in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
After killing the alpha we got a crappy pirate hat REALLY!!!
This fish was actually a filter feeder, like the whale shark. Wildcard should make it to where if you CAN tame one, you have to get it moving to ‘eat’ plankton whilst it’s mouth is open.
I made a stone raft and it didn’t work
Tips to avoid the creature
Don't go on a raft
It’s not able to break motorboats, my friend made a stone fortress on one and he got attacked by an Alpha but it couldnt do Damage to it so he just watched it attack his boat dealing 0 damage.
Make sure you stay near shore when on a raft, or these things will absolutely murder it. There is one right by the beach outside of my base, and blocks are water travel.
I was scared when this "Mobi Dick" attacked my boat where I melted 1000 irons
If you decide to drive past a spino or over the open sea
Take the spino
You can easily outrun it if you have four plant x on your raft. It’s basically the only way to fight them. Also it can’t catch motor boats as they are also faster than it.
Motorboat + Spearbolt Turret is your best bet against them.
Ya har fellow sailers, rumors say there is a white leedsichthys somewhere, of course thoses are rumors but I heard many ships were sunk by this whale , so be carefull while sailing and alway bring weapons with you, this is probably the most dangerous beast of the ocean.
When I got attack my tribemate went flying so if you bring animals the might try to kill it/suggested a raft or moaterboat but they don't attack you often
Whatever you do, don't attack these with a water mount... Mfin whale turns into sonic himself when chasing you to kill the mount
I always get spooked when one of these render in then remember their neutral so they wont attack me.
Jaws is on the new map!?! So... no boats allowed on the new map!
We’ve actually never encountered one at herbivore island. We thought we were safe on the raft because nothing ever happened, but then we went to get oil in the colder region...we were at the island up to the left when we barely got away from it. Damn thing followed us forever too.
When your on a ichy it won’t do anything so if u get off your ichy and get some meat and get on your ichy you can easily get away from anything btw...
STAY AWAY IS HAS DESTROYD MANY OF MY RAFTS
Can't even damage thatch structures yet they can just chew through war rafts. No raft is safe from this thing...
If not driving the raft stand near to the edges other wise you might end up dying when it hits the boat if your not driving
U can trap the leedsicthys by using a couple on stone gateframes and lead it with a raft then when it eats the raft (before or after) u just slam the final gateframe(s) and there u go, a trapped leedsichys (make sure u arent the only one doing this and also if it despawns, do it again)
