Taming & KO Tips

How do I tame a manta? Tips and strategies on taming and knocking out a manta.
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
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 out🤦♂️ 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
If you pump your levels into speed and skim the surface while using sprint you can use Carbo shells as jumps.
Just ride an itchy and you can feed it without it aggroing on you. I’m on mobile
Let it aggro on a basilosaurus with high health and feed it angler gel and it won't even notice you(make sure it is only one manta
Why does it need Angler Gel to tame? Why not raw fish meat or raw meat? Seriously.
How to tame
1 tame a dilocauls
2 fine and kill a angler fish
3 then get 1-2 bug repellent
4 then tame
No scuba needed
I found mine by a sea sausage around the Southern Islets. It was a relatively quick tame after the first feed. I had to save up for an outpost (25 amber) so I could make a scuba tank, but once I had it, there wasn’t much else to do but find one. I rode on Ran, my Baryonyx, and the manta never aggroed. It only took 9 or so angler gel for a level 27 (11% per feed). I brought her home and named her Anandimide. I’m kinda disappointed that you can’t pull out a map or spyglass from the back, but the speed and strength of the animal makes up for it.
Its fun to rid them.Put points into movement speed and you have a fast water mount.
You can passive tame them like dung beetles.Make sure to have an Ichthyosaurus or use bug repellant when you tame them or they will aggro on you.
They have a slower attack rate but does kinda decent damage.
They are a huge pain in the a**
while taming underwater creatures.
I hade 10 In my old pvp server that guarded my underwater cave base no 1 could live throu a raid they killed alpha mosas easy
consciousswine 75 see ya on ark
For anybody that doesn’t know about Achatinas, they are the answer to your angler gel needs, just get a high dmg raptor or Caron find one, and kill it with the extra attack you get more angler gel.
Non violent tame means u dont have to knock it out
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 🙂
To the idiot who said they only eat gels,they also eat fish meat.
AnglerMeat boii
Hiw to tame one:
1. Don't bring tranq arrows or narcotics coz they passive tame
2. They prefer AnglerGel (can be obtained by harvesting dead anglers or achatinas)
3. Ride am Itchthy to tame while not being attacked or lead it to shallow water then feed it the AnglerGels.
4. Now you have a Manta! Tamed ones only eat meat or fish meat and are pretty fast btw.
You have 2 ways (by what i know) to tame it. The first and easiest way is to tame an ichty, because it doesn't get agro, then grab some angler gel and tame the manta.
The other way is to use a bug repellent and feed it the gels.
After tamed, you can feed it meat.
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
