What are tips for megalodon? Tips and strategies for megalodon in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
Lure it into shallow water, stand on shore & shoot tranq arrows. If it runs away, just go back in the water, shoot it, and get back out.
You need to take fins or another water Dino. Also for you noobs regular bows don't work underwater nether do slingshots or guns only use crossbow or harpoon gun.
Create an underwater pen with behemoth gate and choke door and window on other side . Lure into behemoth , close , Slip through choke door - shoot through window , presto
The Megalodon isn't very good compared to creatures like the Dunkleosteus, it isn't as fast as an icthyosaur neither, don't bother taming if you have an icthyosaur to get away from large dinos.
Literally beyond easy to tame, crossbow, swim in circles, aim for the head, knocked out a lvl 15 and it didn't even hit me, it is wise to do it near the surface since it will prob be an early tame so you don't have to go deep to top up torpor, if at all
Used really well to collect angler gel and to kill basilosaurus for oil
Make a Shark Cage out of wood or better and tranq it with crossbow. You can learn how to make this cage at the Gaming Kiwi YouTube Channel.
How to tame a Megalodon in ARK
One of these motherfrickers killed my prize Spinosaurus. I was running from titanosaurs! Now I'm stuck 6 miles from my base on my pteranadon
When your taking the megalodon once you have knocked it out don’t shoot it again to make it sleep longer use narcotics because then the taming effectiveness will go down and you will get a lower level megalodon
STAY OUT OF THE OCEAN OR YOU WILL BE SWARMED BY AT LEAST 7
I’m gonna be honest here I tamed a meg by leading it to shallow waters and knowing it out with my mastercraft bow and gave it some prime boom ez tame
Just find a high level one, kill all the others and get prime fish meat, and knock it out and tame it. (Super low torpor)
to the people who says they are bad they are not they are op, my level 3 megladon saved me from a level 90 mosasaur they are worth taming
This may sound weird but it works. Tame a scorpion and level up damage and then continue to sting the Meg. This actually works I have tried it lol!
Two major ways to tame.
1. Build a trap. They can only fit through behemoth dino gateways. They cannot fit through normal doorways. Lead it (via flippers or an Ichthy) through the behemoth and then exit via the smaller normal doorways. Close the gate and knock it out. Megs can't damage stone, FYI.
2. Get flippers or an Ichthy and find a good shark. Shoot at it. When it (and all nearby sharks) gets close swim away. Repeat until it's unconscious. Put your food on it and then kite the other nearby megs out of render distance. They won't attack it while unconscious but they will as soon as it's tamed.
I was taming an 174 Argy and I was in the ice biom and it was on a piece of floating ice and then a level 76meg comes and attacks it from the bottom anb killed it I didn't even know it. Then I enjoyed every second when I was killing it I made it as painfully as I could.
Most fun way to do it is get a two long guns with tranq arrows and go shark hunting with a friend (or by yourself). Haveing a harppon tranq gun also helps with agroing and if it goes deeper underwater
