The Mantis is passively tamed by feeding it Deathworm or Woolly Rhino Horns, with Ghillie armor and Bug Repellent helping you approach safely; a trap can make the process more reliable. It is highly versatile, equipping tools for efficient resource gathering and weapons for combat or knocking out creatures. In the wild, keep your distance from its powerful pounce and damage, isolate it from nearby threats, and use fire-based attacks when fighting it.
