The mantis Lays eggs more often in the Desert (the desert also has 100% wind)

Eat bug repellant

Apply ghilly suit

Sneak up behind

Shove death worm horns up its boots hole

If you need deathworm horns go to 0,10 (northwest corner of the map) in Scorched Earth and just keep walking back and forth along the northern barrier, a deathworm should spawn in less than 5 minutes.

I HAD NO IDEA WHAT THE HANDS SLOT WAS FOR BUT YOU CAN PUT TOOLS IN THEM LIKE PICKAXE AND AXE AND TORCH ETC. mine, chop, light.

With a mantis

These guys eat rotten meat once tamed!!

Use bug repellant and a gillie suit. It allows you to get close without it attacking you.

You can raise baby mantis with spoiled meat as food

You can lure them to water and feed them. There’s no need for bug repellent doing it this way I do it all the time and it works like a charm.

Use bug repellent and cactus broth when taming, this makes agro range literally 0.

Ok the creature you kill to tame the mantis are endgame but mantises are mid game that makes no sense

Be warned that they have a fairly long range pounce, and do good damage. Don't fight these unless you're truly prepared.

Eggs cannot be moved, much like bloodstalker. Cannot eat cooked meat or will starve.

Put an wooden club in the mantis hands and you've got an op Dino for taming

If you and your tribe mate work together and have a wyvern. Use it to pin the mantis and you won't have to chase it. Have someone stay on the wyvern and taming is easy. Good luck!

If you have a wyvern and you’re on a map with an ocean you can pick the mantis and drop it in water, it won’t agro you and you can tame it without needing any ghillie armour or bug repellent.

Best place to get Deathworm horns is the Ice Queen cave on Ragnarock. Just take a Sabertooth and eat the easy male death worms. Easy horns they spawn back fast. Use them to tame the mantis.

Where do they spawn on lost island? Sky arrow if spawn deep in the desert
