Tips & Strategies
When I was still a noob and didn’t know anything I saw 3 mantas, I didn’t know if they were aggressive so I went to check if they were at first for some unknown reason it didn’t attack me they just acted like ichthyosauruses so I thought they were passive but then when I tamed a low level ichthyosaurus the mantas started killing my ichthyosaurus I was like WHAT I THOUGHT U GUYS WERE SUPPOSED TO BE PASSIVE then it killed my ichthyosaurus, i went to check again but this time they killed me R.I.P me and my ichthyosaurus
Tip: DONT BE STUPID LIKE ME

Non violent?! Bruh this dude is suuuupper violent .
If you are planning on doing anything involving water prepare to despise these flat horrors. They can out swim you. They can swarm you. They can act friendly and once you turn your back eat your tame. Beware.
Kill them All. Revenge for Steve. Never forget Never forgive.
They are aggressive in real life too. RIP Steve Irwin.
They are passive if you are on an ichthy
They say passive tame because YOU are the one that’s supposed to be passive, same way it says “non-violent” it’s talkin bout you NOT the actual tame, sheesh
This guy killed my lystro and dodo, i am crippled and sad
If caught in open water by a manta fight don't flee. If you have a spear or pike swim up as it gets close. This keeps you above it attack area and puts you in striking range. The manta is slower moving up and down in the water.
