What are tips for megalodon? Tips and strategies for megalodon in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
Multi-meg taming trick. Their turn radius is horrible. Stay to their inside and keep using crossbow to sink tranq arrows into them. IF you get outside the turn radius then they will shred you apart
1.get it to agro you and swim as far in land as possible while hitting it with tranqs from a cross bow
2. Now that your far inland when it tries to run you follow it before it can go into nothingness
3.keep hitting it with tranqs after it tries to run and knock it out
Getting one megladon makes getting more a lot easier. For what ever reason it aggros wild ones quite far. Just swim underwater and spy class the one you want. Lead it to the coast and begin tanqing. As for underwater usage. My 225 6k health and 364 melee was able to take an alpha megladon solo. I did manage to kill a lvl 70 alpha but needes help from rexes. Fairly good underwater would recommend 2 or more for higher level alphas though.
These are a joke my Barry killed an alpha in 2 mins
Sharks recieved some love from developers, and now are waaaaay better than before. It bote does allossaurus tipe bleed and have pack buff. Use 9 sharks togheter to Max Power. With this many sharks, you Can anhilate anything in your Path. With a pack of 5 sharks, i was able to obliterate an level 140 Alpha tuso in seconds
Go just far enough in the water that you can see some megalodons then shoot one and then go on shore and it should follow you and then tranq it out and tame it
Can be horse kicked by equus if lured to the shore.
Saves harpoons and tranqs.
These things are VICIOUS! They attack Wild Gigas at bay.
1. Reinforce your raft with stone foundations, they won't be able to break them.
2. Make them attack your raft and shoot at them with tranq arrows (Bow and crossbow can both be used but a crossbow will be quicker) when they swim away because they are almost unconscious make sure you hit all the arrows you shoot so they won't escape.
3. Tame them with the food of your choice (high level Megalodons will need some narcotics or bio toxin, you won't need it immediately but be prepared).
4. Have fun with your Megalodon!
The megalodon is one of the easiest tames in ARK.
Simply use a crossbow with tranq arrows, and swim at it while strafing left or right. The megalodon, like most large underwater creatures, has a horrible turn radius, which is very easy to get inside of. Just tranq it till it runs, than tranq it till it stops. If your having trouble with this tactic, boost your speed or wear scuba flippers.
Unconsious Megalodon Dont agro other Megalodon. Remember , you DONT need to trank them in the head.
Put a couple points in a sarco's health and boom these get like 3 or 4 shotted
1. Make a boat and find a high level one near the shore
2. Tranq it on the boat and feed it regular meat and you don’t need narqs.
So I was in the Ragnarok map, and I was trying to get down to the desert from near the top right corner of the island. Later I got to a point were I had to swim across a river. I was about half way across when I was attacked by a megalodon. It was a death match! All the sudden, another on shows up and its then that I stop trying to kill them and I try swimming away. I had managed to make it out alive but with extremely low health. However I am glad I survived.
PS: About five minutes later I died to a raptor.
Use a high level Basilosaurus with high health to lead it to shallow water where the basilo gains health faster. Dismount and let the megalodon bite at your basilo while you traq it. Tamed 4 150 megalodon with this method works like a charm.
How to tame a megalodon
1:get tranq arrows,about 10(for a short level Meg like a 7) then get some cooked prime meat and some narc paste
2:find a low or high level meg(what ever you prefer)that’s fight a carbom or something(that’s so it doesn’t attack you)
3: shoot the Meg
4: once it starts to run away kill the thing it’s attacking and shoot it a couple more times till it’s unconscious
5: give it the prime meat because it takes a small amount of time to tame it then
6: watch out for predators like rays or stuff
7: AND BOOM!💥 you got yourself a Megalodon
Uparoo if this was helpful👍
I have found that it is easy and safer if you use a pelagornis to lure the megalodon into a trap. Doing it this way if something really bad come you can just fly off of the water instead of trying to get to shore.
