Player-written tips for taming, using, and fighting the Megalodon in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.

I feel like it should have a special ability to swing its tail around and smack the heck out of underwater creatures.

I think that these guys are way too small they should be about 3 times bigger. 🏹 if you think they have to change it. If this gets 1000 👍s I will write an humongous tip to dododex about it 👍 😠

Ok so the way I see it is that it it way easier to get a low level and better 1 because you can choose what stats you want on the creature and 2 because they are much quicker to tame. Same goes for megladons. ( I am sorry if there is any mistake in the spelling or grammar )

I once was taming s lvl 130 of these. Took me 3 hours and in the end I ran out of food and the taming bar dropped back down to half after being at 90% I just didnt have the time and patience anymore so I killed the stupid thing and fed its meat to my ichy.

Do not and I repeat DO NOT bring on deep ocean trips!!! Literally everything agros on it even it’s own kind!!! Be very careful when around electrophorus also because they will knock you off and kill your perfectly tamed Meg 😔 I am pretty sure jellies don’t agro tho 👍

I recommend making a water pen and lure it in, they can only fit through behemoth gates and can’t damage wood, use reinforced gates they can’t break those either. But yeah just lure it in and shoot at it feed it meat you know, the basics.

Use a gigant hatch frame on a tamming raft to get it into the trap. Since it feet on the gigant hatch but it does not on the dino gates. ;)

Easiest place to tame a Megalodon is the channel at 65/15 (island). The spawn in that area, and it rarely has jellyfish. Build a behemoth gate out into the water and smaller Dino gates around it to make an enclosed area. Open the gate and lure one by chumming (kill a fish but…

Just get on a Quetz or a Tapajara, fly over the water with a Spyglass, find a good one, use shocking tranq darts, put a fridge on your Quetz and fill it with mutton. Then you'll shortly have a Megalodon.

If your taming one then hop on a itchy then get off it’ll start Chasing you bring it to land then start traqing feed spino kibble if it you have it otherwise just feed it prime meat I’m a mobile player that’s how I do it hope this helped :)
