Tips & Strategies
Careful... they may look delicious in all but powerful...pancakes or waffles... Iost my megaladon to a pack of 8 of these which took 4 1/2 hours to tame...
Guys, it says passive tame because you do not have to knock it out.
Don’t mix these guys with your fav and only theri. R.I.P. Tickles 😭
How I tamed a manta was that I got 5 angler gel from daily gift and got soothing balm took my itchy and found a level 3 manta fed it put soothing balm on it and still have 3 left over wach out the other manta's can kill your manta if your not careful up for others to see 🙂
Shhh be quiet. They’ll call there mates over half way through the tame
THESE THINGS NEED TO BE NERFED THEY KILLED MY MAX LEVEL FULLY IMPRINTED SPINO THAT TOOK ME FOREVER TO GET NERF THESE THEY ARE SO BROKEN
Surprisingly in mobile ark, if you attack achatinas with raptors, as I have learned from my own experience, you can get angler gel. I have never gone past the shallows in the ocean, yet I have multiple stacks of angler jell. Hope y’all can find this helpful. Don’t know if it works on other versions of ark though.
I’ve found the best way to deal with these guys is using a Pelegornis in shallow water. You’re able to hop off the water, fly, and still follow the manta around. It’s easy to hop back on the bird if you land in the water so it makes it easy for a quick feed and then retreat.
Oddly, if you apply bug repellant to yourself and your mount, mantas won't aggro on either of you as easily.
Kill all the other mantas before taming cause they will kill your new recruit….
Trust me I found out the hard way….
Taking it is actually pretty easy,just ride on your pelagornis and slowly start feeding it angler gell(which can be found in snails on mobile)make sure it’s near shore and away from predators!(like other mantas)its a passive tame so make sure not to get killed in the process
Passive my ass. These things will come at you no matter what. Just avoid them. Or use a baryonxy tail spin until they die.
Use bug repellent so it does not agro or you can trap it with pillars or on the shore
When you get off it, it will spring forward a few yards. So do not discount near land
PASSIVE!? THAT WORD IS MORE UNTRUE THAN WHEN MY BROTHER SAID THERE WAS NO MORE ICECREAM LEFT!!,
Place a stone foundation then 4 stone door frames and a hatch frame on top get it to agro onto you and use the structure as a sort of shark cage if it goes away just reapt it getting agro on you
Fast, armed with an armor piercing barb, capable of jumping and easy to breed, Mantas are the best scout mounts and bodyguards a player may have. As a bonus it is also possible to stand atop of them.
Their only drawback is not allowing the use of weapons by their riders, a trait existent on the similar speed oriented Ichthyosaurus.
Their damage gain per point spent after tamed is also about half the usual (and similar to the Giganotosaurus). However, given their high base damage, ability to (greatly) ignore armor, small turn radius, and poor health scaling, leveling Melee Damage still proves to be the best option for combat Mantas.
