Tips & Strategies
They stalk you if you have an Itchy. They follow you into the shallows then attack. Annoying things. Kill them from range. They are hostile.
Ok so basicly use a sarco or icthy to lure it to shore then feed it angler gel grill it’s tamed
How to tame a manta
1.im playing on easy casual on mobile so this might be different for you
2. Get some angler gel just use a mehladon or an itchy
3.find one in a group
4. Use an ichy they don’t attack them while mounted
5.you got yourself an manta
I found that in shallow water a giga is perfect for killing swarms of these guys but don’t go in to deep water gigas are terrible swimmers and will drown easily
I was swimming back to base on my sarco and when I get back to base I turn it off I come back to find my sarco missing but not dead me 17 days later: let’s explore the ocean on our Meg next thing I see is a sarco swimming in the ocean killing mantas fortunately I brought sarco back to base and tail stunned them with my baryonyx
My only question is why do they eat angler gel but they usually swim at the Shores and anglers usually swim near the bottom of the sea?
This is not passive it is aggressive it will act friendly for a while
Can no longer grab with Kapro :'(
Get a basilosaurus and get the manta you want to tame, agro it to the balsilo and you will be able to tame the manta since its attacking the basilo instead of you. (The basilos food will drain quickly so get it some food)
These guys often commit suicide by sliding up onto the beach, which can be an easy source of fish meat in the super early levels.
This BEAST killed my stego and my turtle and my icthy plus my Meg barely survived. DANGEROUS CREATURE.
It says non-violent because you don’t knock it out to tame! It’s a passive tame :)
I had to spend about an hour trying to get angler gel
It takes a loong to eat the second time, be patient
They are dangerous! I thought they were passive lol
They are very very deadly if you are brand new like me they will like kill you in 3 shots I recommend using a far range attack
If you dont know how to effectivly fight these, dont. You may learn the hard way.
