As of the latest update, these can now be tamed with rhino horns, though with lower effectiveness.

Player-written tips for taming, using, and fighting the Mantis in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
if you are trying to get eggs, they need to be left on areas of the map marked as “wilderness”. on the island its herb island. on ragnarok its the area by the hidden scar where the sand and grass meet.
Use bug repellent to get close to tame
This thing is like the Chuck Norris of gathering. It can literally gather anything really good
When breeding eats spoiled meat
I got jumpscared by one of the mantis and I lost my wyvern I was crying
One of the best games in the game. It has good base stats, and has the special ability to use player tools (axe, pickaxe, sword, club, etc)so it makes amazing harvester, or combat tanks, or knock outers. You will however need to be smart in how you spec points depending on what…
One of the best games in the game. It has good base stats, and has the special ability to use player tools (axe, pickaxe, sword, club, etc)so it makes amazing harvester, or combat tanks, or knock outers. You will however need to be smart in how you spec points depending on what you want for you mantis. If you want a harvester spec stamina and weight, for combat health and melee, knock outer health melee and stamina. Happy taming.
Farm chitin by killing these guys. Simply kill the mantis then use a sword on its corpse. You will be amazed.
This creature is in the top 5 dinos for harvesting in 16 different categories and ranks high in several others
You can combine these with a regular tek parasaur breeding farm to make the ultimate resource farm
If you see it and are landing on a flying mount land somewhere else that are fast and can jump at you also a lot of times they are with other things like spiders and centipedes so look out for other things if your going to tame.
Can get more hide then a few 5 stars like the direwolf and sabertooth with a metal hatchet in its hand even tho the wiki says it's only a 4 star.
These can be grappled so the easiest way to tame once you’ve acquired the horns is to go to the Ragnarok Highlands North and search the black coast for a high level. Use your grapple to grapple it and drag it into the water where it will deagro and you can feed it easily.…

Dont me on lost island. Found lvl 90 Mantis and beat it with a club, realize it was a passive tame after knocking the hell out of the bug.
You need bug repellent, and a ghille suit to tame them than you crouch and sneak up behind it with a death worm/rhino horn in your last item slot and press Y on Xbox and E on pc
These are master of resource gathering. like avatar but master of all resources
These guys are very good at harvesting metal if you have one with decent weight as you can hold the mining drill while riding one (somehow) but yoy can mine metal with their pickaxes and transfer the metal onto your character
Use a megatherium to kill death worms (when they have the insect buff they get a 350% mele buff to insects <death-worms are insects> and take reduced damage) use a full ghille suite and bug spray when taming and have a tribe mate hold a mantis low to the ground with a…
Use a megatherium to kill death worms (when they have the insect buff they get a 350% mele buff to insects <death-worms are insects> and take reduced damage) use a full ghille suite and bug spray when taming and have a tribe mate hold a mantis low to the ground with a wyvern while feeding. Fast and easy. Put the horns in taming slot…Walk up and feed then run out of agro until it’s ready to eat again and you have a new pet.
On gen 2 if you put swords in its hands it Collect sap. From the yellow trees.
Me and my tribemate reinacted Star Wars
We got two mantis by a lava lake and gave them decent swords as the rest of the tribe watched
I went onto the high ground and he went to the low ground with the lava in between us

Me and my tribemate reinacted Star Wars
We got two mantis by a lava lake and gave them decent swords as the rest of the tribe watched
I went onto the high ground and he went to the low ground with the lava in between us
“It’s over Anakin, I have the high ground!”
“You underestimate my power.”
“Don’t try it.”
he leaped to wards me and I sliced but missed cause he got deflected off the rock and then fell into the lava
“You were my brother Anakin,”
“I loved you,”
Then we had to get him a fjordhawk to grab his stuff but eh it was pretty entertaining especially as he cried in agony at the loss of his stuff when I said the last lines
