Tips & Strategies

What are tips for megachelon? Tips and strategies for megachelon in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
Only found under water till tamed then they can go on land but are realy slow hope dis heped up of did
Not actually as hard as you think. Also people say he "eats" the fish but I think they are cleaning him.
So apparently you can grab the swarm with a tuso keep in mind you will be slow and venerable however
Tip for everyone:
Don't get a microbe swarm while on a Mount. Get off to aggro and stay off, the swarm will aggro easier off a Mount, and stay aggrod better. Swimming backwards you'll swim at a similar speed to the microbe swarm. (PC) Use "K" to see where you're going.
Solo player tips:
Step 1. Set dino spawn to 2.0 to find Megachelon and microbe swarms easily. (Also up dino tame speed if you wish)
Step 2. Get full scuba suit, but only use the body piece when you need it as the ocean biome in Genesis GREATLY reduces oxygen consumption underwater.
Step 3. Get night vision goggles to spot microbe swarms very easily. Works best at night.
Step 4. Get an X Basilosaurus.
Step 5. Find a high concentration of Megachelon and then swim down to find a microbe swarm. Bring it back up and use the basilosaurus to defend against sharks, eels, and sabertooth salmon (watch near the microbe swarm around the turtle, they'll spawn nearby the swarm)
Step 6. Start collecting Megachelon to build an army.
Once the taming process begins, coelacanth and salmon will spawn in its wake and try to attack the megachelon. Kill them before they reach it or it will end the taming process!
Tame using a microbe swarm. Lure it to the megachelon and then defend the turtle from everything thats agressive. Careful. This takes a very long time.
You need to lure a parakeet fish school (if the school won’t 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 don’t let anything attack it or the taming will start over.
To tame you must lure the "microbes" (swarming fish) to the turtle and allow the taming meter to go up. If the turtle gets hit the taming bar restets.
When taming, make sure not to trap it. When it comes in contact with a barrier of any kind, sabertooth salmon are spawned in behind it. The salmon will bite it an reset its taming. If you tame it in the open water with no barriers it will tame pretty easy. You can not put berries into your hot bar and passive it or honey. You can not knock it out to tame either.
Lead a sea swarm to it then swim near it. Dont let it take damage or it will rest tameing .QD
If you’re planning on building a pen/breeding facility that will keep your world turtles safe, you are gonna need more space. These things BARELY fit through behemoth gates and are prone to getting stuck on uneven terrain on land.
You might think you know how big these guys are. You are underestimating, and probably by a good amount.
Easy tame, agrow fish on them and move far away, the tame will work 0 to 100%
Make sure you stick close to it while taming or it's bar will drop to zero and you'll have to start over
wait THATS HOW YOU TAME IT????
uhhhhh

They can breed but only at really deep dephts in the Ocean Biome. The Island's oceans aren't deep enough so you can't breed them on that map.
