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.

Carefull around these guys. They're like the raptors of the water, lost my newly tamed basilosaurus to these heartless animals... Rest well, Bessie, I loved listening to your singing T_T

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.

The manta is quite dangerous, as it's attacks can punch straight through armour, even flak. They are very fast and unless you have lots of oxygen and speed, you will not escape. Just poke your head underwater and look left and right before crossing the sea. It's like a road, but worse, because roads don't have angry stingrays, very large sharks and/or killer piranha

A waffle of maddness

They give us the saddle at low level, but we need to go deep underwater to get angler gel without scuba stuff? How are we supposed to tame the devil's goldfish when we get the saddle??

So, yesterday I tamed my first Megalodon (around lvl 105), I went outside of our base to test it. Killed a bunch of other megalodons and mantas. That was pretty easy. Went back to base. An hour later, my megalodon died...ONE OF THE FUCKING MANTAS FOLLOWED ME AND ENTERED VERY SNEAKY IN MY BASE AND KILLED MY FUCKING MEGALODON. It was a lvl 5 so it took a fucking hour to kill my megalodon. Those are bitches. Update: I tamed another megalodon today. Lvl 200. Fuck mantas.

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...

Passive my ass. These things will come at you no matter what. Just avoid them. Or use a baryonxy tail spin until they die.

Found a basilosaurus once being follow by two of these mad little pancakes I accidentally hit the basil and got swarmed by life 50 of the mad pancakes I screamed before they killed me they killed my level 100 meg they are like a swat team for the basil I started crying then my mum walked in and asked why I was crying I explained then she gave me the look

One time, I was riding my trike peacefully and heard the scary music that you hear when you get attacked. And I got off and saw one of these dudes and my Trike horny killed one of them.

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.

Whatever you do, do NOT name your character as Steve Erwin and attempt to swim with them

I had a load of raptors but, THESE LIL BUGGERS KILLED SEM ALL! Rip my lil buddies :( {oh by the way Dododex (or creator\s of Ark, could you add sea horses? Pleeaaase?? 🥺🥺

First you want to cuddle with it but you see another "What ever,twice the fun." you think. But then "A third, no fourth, no sixth, no tenth, MY SARCO!!! NO I DIED AND LOST A JOURNEY MAN CROSSBOW AND MY SCUBA GEAR." Looks at level of mantas /level 4/ "Lil shit."

There were one of these in my river for some reason. And the river is only like 3 feet deep

It should not say “Non-Violent” because the saw flap flaps are very violent

DO NOT TRY TO TAKE ON THESE GUYS!!! I saw a group of 5-6 take down a turtle in the water!

Beware they are evil they killed my wyvern lesson learned stay high never run out of stam

You can find these in deep water but to make it easier tame a megaladon or a basil like if believe lol
