Taming & KO Tips

How do I tame a manta? Tips and strategies on taming and knocking out a manta.
Make a pen out of stone doorways. Then pin it down with stone pillars and put a stone hatch on top. Don't think you can quickly sneak food on him. 1 hit completely breaks any armor and leaves you with about 7 health.
If you tame trap in 2 by 2 stone windows and tame. But once tamed make sure u turn off folllowing instantly and have saddle made already. Tamed 3 yesterday and they all killed them selves within 30 seconds of taming it from beaching on rocks etc. Finally on the 4th one i got it perfected hah. They are really cool but useless!
The only way to obtain angler gel on your own at a low level is randomly from fishing. Grab a rod and sap my body friend
Had 2 jump on my raft ramp tame them very easy. They jump on raft after me while I was taming megdon. Didn't know. Was only 1 ramp high. Could help people trying to get
Tame basi agro manta to basi get off feed easy as pie
For people trying to get angler gel, just kill snails (they drop gel)
Swim next to the basilosaurus they are swimming with and tame from there, they won’t attack and there is no need for the dolphin or anything like that
Raft+gateway+gate+hatchframe to shoot through+storage box+walls= manta taming raft (manta sucker). Drive & get manta through the gateway, close the gateway & feed angler gel.
Whoever said that you can use a kapperucus to pick them up and do not diy was so rong because when I used my kapperuscus and picked it up and it died in its mouth almost immediately.

I make a large platform raft with multiple spaced out ramps. I agro multiple manta onto the ramps. Let them unagro and you can tame them in peace. Not some will die in this attempt and after you complete the time you post demolish the ramp or they WILL DIE!
Trap it in pillars on the beach to make taming it easier.
A basalosaurus can kill about 50 of theses easly that is if you know how to use it well. The easiest way to get a big amount of angler gel is to kill angler fish. Good luck 👍
All you need is a Ichthyosaurus and lots of oxygen
This is a "passive" tame, except for the matter of these guys are very aggressive. If you ride a itchysaure, they will not agro you unless you dismount. Arrow so people can see this. BTW: This is on mobile. I don't know about other platforms.
Here is my plan I do
I kill anglers for angler jell on my itchy and feed them mantas
Best way make a water pin using wood pillars start on the beach from shore to sea make sure when building pen to have 7 feet deep pillars in water and above water surface 2 feet pillars the manta can escape over. When pillars meet land have them between water ending point to land so manta doesn't get killed while being out of the water. to lure them in use baryonyx to knock them out while they are in pin with tail spin. Then close gate. When the mata reawakes lure it to the corner of your pin and place pillars around it will be stuck easy taming then feed angler gel becaerfull when its yours to whistle stop then put saddle on if not it will follow you and risk itself of killing itself
If you go on the Ragnorok map if you go too viking bay 3 and go to the bottom of the ocean not far from the bridge like rocks a giant manta the size of a bronto will spawn and it is called the manta king. It is very easy to kill despite its size. Your welcome!
Beach bobs who thinks this should be called violent taming u are wrong non violent means u are not violent no the creature plz spread the word to others.
