You can't tame in caves

If you are to tame a mantis I would recommend you try to tame it where it is far away from anything that it can Agro on or else you will have to start over. Don't tame these guys in big numbers I'd reccomend, at most, two at a time so you don't get distracted or lose sight. I also reccomend that you don't try taming one of these guys until you are absolutely ready with repellent and horns. Beware the horns are heavy. Good luck!

Can be found in caves or the open desert areas of scorched earth. Flame arrows work really well against them if you want to kill. Chainsaws gather lots of organic polymor from them which can be used instead of normal polymor

Can you tame these with wooly rhino horns? If not I guess I could make that trip to Ragnorok. Would be annoying tho

Cant tame in valguero cuz there is no deathworms

Drag it out of a cave or tame in the cave they will not move while taming if you are not detected

Build 1 Foundation, (Adobe,Stone, or Metal) four walls on the first level, three on the second leaving one open, attach a ramp to the open section, if you can successfully drop the mantis in, it will remain still for the duration, and no repellant or broth required.

How does one collect berries with the Mantis? According to Dododex it has a 3.2 gathering effiency for berries.

carryable by karkinos, upvote so everyone sees and they change it

Don't use taming pen for these creatures! They really hate being near anything and will ignore your horns even if you have ghillie and bug repellant if they're in a pen! Just do the sneak behind its back technique. Up this so people can know!

Valguero Taming Guide: Mantises spawn at the bottom of the Wyvern Scar. To tame them, first you will need to go to Scorched Earth and wall around the North, West, and South deserts at the perimeter of the map. Each circuit around the map should give you 5-10 horns. Horns can be collected from Iceworms in Ragnarok as well.

Once you have your horns, equip a full ghillie suit and bug repellant. Approach the scar from the East, and you should see two cliff platforms in the snow at the entrance to the Scar. There will almost always be several Mantises on the ramp descending into the scar along with dung beetles, titanaboas, and arthros.

Clear the trash, agro a mantis, and run back up the ramp and onto the snow platforms. Mantis should lose agro on the platforms, and you can then start taming peacefully. Approach from behind with your ghillie suit and bug repllant, passive tame with the horns and feed every 3 minutes. Voila, easy Mantis. I tamed 4 in less than 2 hours like this.

You can taming mantis lv150 with just 4 deathworm horns

So dododex said you must to get 8 deathworm horn that’s wrong

Good luck 🫡

I saw that it takes a death worm horn to tame it so far has taken only ONE and then you xan feed it raw meat. So the fear of " omg I am gonna have to kill death worms all the time" has been proven wrong 4 tames and all eat meat! * gillie suit,b7g spray,crouch and come feom behind the mantis voila!!! Bad ass friend to ride and tame Dragons YES DRAGONS!!They are able to hold a club and knock out for you!!

Bring a crossbow and grapple and grapple it to the nearest water and wait for it to passive this works best in Highlands on Ragnarok.

You can actually spawn in scoarched earth creatures by using a command just use Google and search the command for the creature you want. Upvote so other people can see.

Have a friend pick up the Mantis and hold it in the air while you feed it.

Quick question do these animals aggro on sight? Idk these things upvote for yes.

I can't find horns they should eat spoiled meat so I can't tame one and I'm a kid

For everyone saying you can’t tame them on crystal isles or they aren’t on valguro... transfer maps 🗿

Can't be tamed at all in extinction
