Ok the creature you kill to tame the mantis are endgame but mantises are mid game that makes no sense
Mantis
How to survive, fight, and kill a wild Mantis, from players who have done it.
Be warned that they have a fairly long range pounce, and do good damage. Don't fight these unless you're truly prepared.
Where do they spawn on lost island? Sky arrow if spawn deep in the desert
Gillie suit cactus broth and bug repellent..kill all other creatures near and around the mantis feed from behind.
They spawn on Lost Island in the desert in the bottom of the map.
They aren’t in mobile so for all those people out there who plays only mobile don’t waste time trying to find them
Mantis are one of the best sources of organic polymer.
Kill em and chop em up with a chainsaw for best results.
Although they look menacing they are actually quite weak against other dinosaurs. You can kill those with an Argy. They give A LOT of organic polymer, so come prepared.
Really wish you could tame them on crystal isles
If using this mantis to grind out metal, take a set of clubs along with you. Ascendant clubs in a 400% Mantis will 1 - 4 hit most animals on the server.
The best way to deal with a mantis is to use fire. Use flame throwers, fire wyverns, or oil jars.
I mean theae guys are super useful but kinda expensive to tame
Can't be Bolaed
Don't try to and be me
I got jumpscared by one of the mantis and I lost my wyvern I was crying
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.
These are master of resource gathering. like avatar but master of all resources
SE has most mantises but all are usually low levels, ragna has more common high levels and horns are easy to get from worm cave. SE has low lags and more color options during event, ragna has megalags and mana abusers that will mess up taming.
I don’t know if it’s happened to anyone else but when in the lava wyvern trench on lost island watch out for mantis as well as wyverns because I've had a few jump out at me, sure it’s not the most deadly thing in the world when it’s wild but it can give you a bit…

(This is more for when your on a mount with decent health and speed like a maewing or a mana)
Using a deinonychus will get you a really good amount of organic polymer from these guys. This is whay I do in asgard in Fjordur.
If you get too close they will jump on your face just to be mean. Bring bug repellent!
