How do I kill a megalodon? megalodon battling strategies in ARK: Survival Evolved.
A good way to find them on the island is to go to herbivore island and you’ll find some usually
What you want to do is lead a Alpha Megalodon into a shore where it isn’t dumb enough to go on land and mount your Velonasaur you named Velona, and shoot spikes at it
*Velonasaurus has a new level-up available, access inventory to apply it*
You: Ok let’s see, and HOLY KING TITAN
*Velona literally has 400 levels available and she’s only LvL 50*
I was shark hunting. Too lazy to wait for meat to spoil, I set out on my Icthy named Swordfish and attacked a shark. 2 more spawned and one was opposite gender! The shark I originally attack was at 81 HP. I killed it and the other sharks harvested it then attacked me! I found a solo shark, and it didn’t attack back. This happened again with another solo shark. Why? I have no idea.
OH NO!! Do my brother and sister say they saw these things jump out of the water and eat creatures whole!!😰So please up if you see one flying. Oh yea and their fin extend so yeah. OH GREAT!!!!
It is deadly if you see this and you dont have a raft swim away FAST but to kill use a crossbow
A lot spawn in the ocean next to the foot paw region
They need to be stronger once one bit me ghile leggings and the rest leather and It done a quarter of my health but I did have 200 at the time so it does like 50
I’d say pretty good starter mount to Start your under water adventures. When you encounter the Megalodon there’s not much about it besides the bite and it’s quite slow when it tries to attack you if you ha e some Oxygen pumped into your character you can easily out swim it would make it easier to tame
Easy way to kill spin to win get it to follow you and spin around will work use 3rd for extra sight
Killing these guys are good for leveling up if you want to level your kaprosuchus, sarcosuchus, or baryonyx. That's what I do. My sarcos hit for about 300 damage each and they can take on a squads of megalodon with ease.
You can usually see these guys before they actually get to you so that’s good
You think megaloeons are anoying try x-megalodons on genises they do like twice as much damage and take about 60% reduced damage
Well, I was trying to tame parasaur without Bola (I was new) the parasaur runs into the ocean my dilopharsaurus runs after it and this thing kills my dilo
When encountering you can abuse it’s turn radius and stay on its side, this also makes knocking one out really easy if it’s by itself
Got nerfed so hard when they moved it from real life to ark
You are just wanting to go for a swim when suddenly you see a megalodon. You try to swim away but you can't out swim a shark. He will take a bite out of you and break a bone then leave but come back to finish you off with a final blow.
Does anybody randomly get attacked by these while riding a ichty.
Your best defense is a fast water mount.
Thanfully these are fairly slow compared to other marine creatures. Your best defence is a water mount. A Sarco, mantas and Itchys can easily outrun them.
They have a very large agro range though and will come and sneak up on you if your not careful.
They look scary but they are actually really weak unless you tame it
If you ever start ark don’t go near them if you have no gear(armour) because can and will shred your hp I know this because it happened to me many times.
