I bred a level 189 mantis and his melee attack was 199, I realized I had a acendent sword, I put it on him and now he does 1209 regular and 1489 ultimate, he's my new guard dog

Just make sure you have a trap and death worm horns.

I don't even use tranqs on my singleplayer world, I just use these bad boys and clubs😁

Be careful when encountering wild Megatherium since it gains an unholy boost of rage when around bugs, so make sure your Mantis is powerful or equipped enough to handle them or skedaddle out of there!

First make sure that the mantis is free from other animals. Take care of the mantis. Hug with a dragon or another big animal that does not attack the mantis. And then you can calmly give him the deadworm horns

Place a 1x1 wooden foundation, place two walls high on all side but leave one side open. Place 2 pillars where you left it open and lead a ramp on the opposite side for it to walk up and into the box, you can easily slip past the pillars and get out the box trapping the mantis, let it de-aggro by flying out the area for 20-30 seconds and replace the pillars with a wooden wall and fully box it in, place a ceeling on top now you can feed the mantis through the wall without bug repellent.

How to tame: first get some rhino horns or deathworm horns get some ghillie armor lvl 33 and some bug repellent lvl 16 second find a mantis and put on your ghillie and bug repellent crouch over to one but don’t get to close or else you’ll aggro go up and feed it rhino or worm horns and boom💥 mantis tamed😎😎

(Name it Johnny Cade) If it has swords jump jump around and bully things

I agree with you I tried to tame one on scorched earth with a full set of Gilley armor and raw meat so yeah I really realm do agree with you

To the man who said 37 I just want to say the game can be in Celsius OR Fahrenheit

The swiss army knife of Ark. Can hold tools/weapons for you.

For a ez tame take a wyvern, grab the mantis, throw them in water and tame the mantis

Soooooo what, crystal isles can never get 100% taming effectiveness? No deathworms!

Make a 2x2 stone trap 2 walls high with a ramp, lure the mantis in and replace any piece of the trap the mantis is aggrod on. When it's calm you can feed it your horns through the wall without guille or bug repellant

Can be tamed with rhino horns at reduced taming efficiency.

Best place to gather deathworm horns is the ice dungeon on ragnarok.

We made a 3x3 trap, 1 high stone door frames and wooden ramps. Ran out of aggro zone, then came back with bug repellant and tamed. Took like three minutes

Grab with a crab, spray on bug repellent, tame done!

Best dino to use to collect charcoal from burnt trees use a pickaxe on the dead trees by the wyvern spawn on ragnorak collect about 100 or so per tree there tons of gun powder

Trap in a one foundation stone box and close the door. Leave render distance for about a min and go back. Mantis won't aggro supper easy tame

Number one best for gathering salt,mutagel and crystal

Lots of deathworms in desert of rag if u lookin for that more horns
