How do I kill a megalodon? megalodon battling strategies in ARK: Survival Evolved.
Alpha megs murder icthys tha are unridden and not yet trained fully. Rest in Peace Dill! You saved us at a cost. The cost of a warriors death. 1 upv○te is 1 person who feels what I feel.
stay away from Alfa’s because they will eat you and they ate my level 55 sarco and it was my first:( can I get a F in the chat for sarcy boii
Up if these sharks need a TLC Right?
People saying the Mfs suck.. BUT A LVL 10 ALONE KILLED MY LVL 55 SARCO, LIKE WTH MAN!!
Also RIP September :( (my sarco)
Fun fact: Megalodons were just larger Great Whites, as Sharks never stop growing.
Sooo I tamed a sarco and named him Scar Scar. And then I accidentally set it to aggressive (finger slipped off the button while aggressive was selected). Then, you know, obviously he went on a killing spree on land, and then he went into the water and killed two manta. Then he decided to set his eyes on one of these, and well it didnt turn out good. Poor Scar Scar. Lost but never forgotten, you fought well little buddy.
Be careful if you have a tamed megalodon or two following your raft. Wild megas will agro your tamed ones and once one dies (tamed or wild) they start to swarm which means yours are as good as dead.
You want to go in water to find icthy
You see tail sticking out of water
You go in water
You swim to "icthy"
You realize icthy is a shark
You die :>
I agree with the guy saying it was too small.
*sees a megalodon*
My arrows: “Alpha 7, goin dark”
I had a megalodon called jaws once, and I put him on wander to mate with another megalodon I had, but I forgot I left him on aggressive and he went after a dodo. He got beached and eventually about 4 dodos ganged up on him and pecked him to death. By the time I was there it was already too late. RIP JAWS ~ death by dodo
There is always a bigger fish.
(Mosasaurus)
Must be bigger; name literally means “big tooth”, and this is the size of a modern great white shark (should be 3x bigger)!
These actually have a bite force 3 times stronger than a T-Rex, so technically it should do 3(65) = 195 damage. And they need more health.
Ppl say this should be 3x bigger but then it will be Giga size aka 156feet long and past the Ridiculous Size of Ark Creatures,before u say anything I got this source from ark wiki which said that carcharodon ultramegalodon aka megalodon is 52 feet in length real megs were 47-60 feet long so the mid range here
Avoid this animal in the wild as it is aggressive. But once tamed they make a good water defense for underwater or island bases, both pvp and pve
The easiest way to kill these guys is to lead them to the shore and for some reason they will glitch and get stuck, letting you get close and personal (without getting attacked) or you can shoot it down with your ranged weapon. I wish I knew that before I lost a perfectly new pteranodon! Every up= RIP for Dwayne and everyone else’s tames lost! 😞
these guys suck I killed like 12 of them by just fast ithcy biting
The meg is so-used to be insane but if you have an itchy on mobile they’re usually passive.
Build a behemoth water pen, then open a gate and lure one in. Then simply shut the gate and tranq it out! I'm taking two right now!
