How do I kill a megalodon? megalodon battling strategies in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
Their new gashing/bleeding effect is deadly even to a high level imprinted basilo solo if they start to swarm you
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! 😞
Check the level before killing or taming it because a good high level shark can be very good for deep sea loot crates
The meg is so-used to be insane but if you have an itchy on mobile they’re usually passive.
These mofos killed my dolphin 😭😭😭
Bro i swear i was on my high lvl meg and i just saw a whole army of megs coming at me from so far away what is wrong with the aggro range on megs
Island of the coast at bottom of map. 2 spawn in inside a lil cove already traped.easy tame
I wish Megalodons were real size and faster there like dilos in the sea
I kiled 3 of these in a row and won there not so bad up this if you think so
Your done when you see him after his friend leedsichthys eats your raft
Every time that you are leaving your water tames in the beach to get drops remember to look EVERYWHERE this guys appear out of nowhere and because its attaking a tame, ir will not care about shallow water, I have lost many ichthyosaurus to them
Where gonna need a bigger boat (jaws)
If you don’t have a crossbow you can lure it close to the shore and if you have lots of arrows you can easily take it down with a bow
Herbivore island there's a lot there (Watch out there very dangerous)
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
I had my icthy and my meg killed by these by 5 wild megs. The moral? Don’t have your tames on neutral
These things have weird taste on chasing you in Mobile. When you don’t care about them and do something else, they do one of 2 things: Not giving a hell and allowing the player to hit it for fun, chasing you down a kilometer away. Their food choices are simple too: Low HP players with stress and despair.
I fell of the boat and 10 of these killed me.
See one of these and either make sure your movement speed is super high and swim or swim to the surface and gain oxygen and be prepared to fight. I learned THAT the HARD way.
I once encountered two megalodons in the shallow water of herbivore island, I just shot at him with tranquillized arrows while thinking that I shot him with normal arrows. He didn’t attack or anything and after a while I noticed that he was unconscious. Tamed him and he didn’t even attack
