Kill the saber and meg's before trying to tame if it gets hit it starts all over
More Megachelon Taming & KO Tips
You can breed them in the squid trench on rag and incubate the eggs there also π so ppl see this. No information about this on here.
To tame a megachelon (sorry if spelt wrong) in the crystal isles map it isnβt actually a passive tame. Because there are no schools of fish to attract to it so you will have to knock it out and put 300x mejoberries in its inventory maintain itβs torpor this 150x narcotics to be safe
Thank you if you read this and make sure to like it so more people can know this,
Go into the ocean in fjordor around the swamp island In the west of the map. You should see some turtles so to tame them find a school of fish and let them follow you to the large turtle. Swim beside it and try and get the fish to target the turtle. This will start the taming process keep doing this till tamed. For the saddle kill the turtles to get shell fragments and combine 22 of them with standard materials in a smithy. You can build on their saddle but don't cryopod if you have built. Make sure others see this
Ps: they are originally from genesis 1 in the ocean biome.
Passive Tame: You kite a parrot fish swarm to the turtle then guard the turtle from sharks and things.
While the turtle "feeds" on the swarm! Any damage resets timer to 0!
Getting inside it with Honey is BS and will NOT work.
Lead it into a line of stone behemoth gates and close a gate behind it and it will be trapped or you make a square box of Dino gates and nothing can mess its taming up while itβs being tamed so up this!!!!!!!
If breeding on Lost Isles head to 42.5 lat 17.8 lon. you can breed in the bottom of that mini trench thing. Area is too hot to hatch in but you can just build a mini hut with an incubator and gen at the bottom. Set incubator to -5 that's my sweet spot.afterwards cryo it up ride to surface and imprint.
They have patched the render range range so ignore any tips that say to leave render as it will no longer. Guess Iβm stuck with the turtles I have, Iβve spent three hours trying to take one of these things and had it walk out of the water which reset it taming! It was at 80% that time. Never got it above 20 after that. What he for the saber tooth salmon that spawn to kill the swarm if they bite the turtle it resets to zero and you start over. Extremely frustrating way to tame a creature. I would like to beat whoever came up with this idea.
You need to lure a parakeet fish school (if the school wonβt aggro that means there is a feces near by and you need to pick it up) to one of these and you need to be off your mount for the taming to start. Do not leave the megachelon side or else the fishes will despawn (and the taming bar wil slowly go down) and donβt let anything attack it or the taming will start over.
Make sure to stick close while it's taming. They patched it so you can no longer tame it out of render distance
Alright to actually tame this giant turtle you need to lead a microbe swarm to the turtle, then protect it from sharks and eels while it passively swims around and eats the swarm
