What are tips for megalania? Tips and strategies for megalania in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
To tame a cancer lizard go into a cave and look up. When you see a disease lizard, shoot an arrow at him. He'll fall down and then you gotta knock him out. Use tranq arrows and boom! He's knocked out. Feed him some meat and wait for a little while. Boom you have a cancer lizard. P.S; Make sure not to be bitten by one of these bad boys because you'll contract what's basically heart cancer and probably die. Hope this helps! -Boa
Also megalania spawn in specific plains in lost island.
i HIGHLY suggest you get tek helmet to spot these things on mobile, because these things are practically unicorns on mobile.
You can find Megalania in Genesis at Volcano biome at south outside. I do not know are there Megalania inside the volcano.
It's not a 'powerful mount with a deadly bite' at all. It's quite weak like a raptor. It climbs well, but will get wrecked by bats if you're not careful, it can't escape those.
Do not leave the cave when taming or it will respawn.
This THING is easy to kill in the lava caves. They can’t climb out of lava pits
This thing CAN HANG FROM CEILINGS! Scared the shit out of me when i was walking in a cave and 2 fell from the ceiling. Watch out for the mega rabies as it will drain your health. Make spare beds when in the cave to save your stuff if you die. Carry antidote as well as a saving grace.
Pick me up with a Pteranodons, and I give you MegaRabies.
This thing fell from the cave ceiling I never saw it before and it fell in front of me so I shot it twice in the face with the double barrel shotgun
Megalania giving you a bad time? This toxic bite sounds like what modern Komodo Dragons have. They bite with a mix of venom and bacteria. This giant lizard is essentially Komodo’s great great great granddaddy.. They likely had a similar trait if you are all feeling sick after encountering one.
I have personally had trouble finding these guys on single player, but I found a tip that will help you guys! All you have to do is eat rare flowers and everything will aggro on you including these guys. They spawn in the redwood cave, carnivore Island cave the artifact of the hunter cave and the lava cave.
Definitely a worth it tame they lose torpor very fast but can be affected by bolas. The spot I recommend the most to look for them is in the cave with the artifact of the hunter. There are sometimes a couple of them there if you find two that are near one another and one is a high level and the other isn’t bola or try to kill the low level ( the other will fall to attack you too if you attack the first one). Bring lots of tranq arrows and lots of narcotics. When riding the megalania you can use weapons they are decently fast and faster climbing. Has a fifty fifty chance of inflicting mega rabies to enemies if tamed. Definitely a great tame
To easily tame it, bring a few bolas, lots toxic arrows with your crossbow or bow, lots of meat, also tons of biotoxin (which you can easily get by killing the shiny jellyfish thingy around the shores). Once you fínd a Megalania, use your bola and shoot ton of toxìc arrows at it, in between use your bola again so it doesn’t escape. When it’s knocked out (I’m sure you know the rest) feed it meat and biotoxin to control its torpor. WOLA! You’ve just tamed a MEGALANIA!!

Bola it then tranq it, feed it meat and if u take it, it is a very very good mount as it can basically climb anything
