Tips & Strategies

A good way to work around using bug repellent is to just circle these dudes with a speedy sarco and get off every once in while to feed em. I HEAVILY suggest wearing flak armor instead of scuba if you try this method tho, cause otherwise theyβll rip you apart.
More Manta Taming & KO Tips
I feel like it should not say non violent tame because this thing is very violent
I step in the water near them, next thing i knew i was a bag
When taming use bug repelent to prevent the manta from attacking you
Surprisingly bug spray actually works with these guys I was bored and tryed it and it worked!!! No argro if u WEAR bug spray!!!!
Tame a kaprosuchos and swim to one of these bad boys and do it's alternate attack it will grab it in it's mouth. walk onto the shore where its safe and have another person feed it while in the gators mouth (if you unmount it drops it) it wont attack or die because it's technically not on the shore.
Guys it says passive tame because you don't need to knock it outπ€¦ββοΈ anyways, whoever said they only eat angler gel after tamed is a liar. They eat meat too. This deathly pancake is a good tame. Here's how to tame it: 1. Find a manta (if you're on the island theres some near the little lake thing where you spawn)
2. Get it to aggro on you
3. Get kind of out of the water
4. Feed it angler gel
5. Tame more and start breeding!
Enjoy your deathly pancake
Eats at 28 seconds, not 11
Just ride an itchy and you can feed it without it aggroing on you. Iβm on mobile
They have terrible turning circle, approach one from above and feed it. Then let it swim circles around you. The occasional time it gets close you can predict its attacks, it βbucksβ just before the attack, which is the tail swinging underneath. Quick swim up or back avoids it. Be prepared to get dizzy, long time between feeding
If you pump your levels into speed and skim the surface while using sprint you can use Carbo shells as jumps.
