To tame you have to use a crossbow because a long neck rifle can't shoot underwater.

Like do that other people can see it.

1. Ride on Ichthyosaurus since nothing will agro on you in the water unless you feed a basilosaurus food and mantas see that.

2. Crossbow ONLY with tranqs or longneck rifle with darts to knock it out.

3. Have some bio toxin beforehand (10 is more than enough)

4. Feed raw or…

The X type takes about 3x more arrows to knock it out from what i can tell this is the same for most x dinos.

While taming an x meg, use tranq spears instead of darts or arrows, seem to work better for me

They spawn a lot around the red obelisk and the ocean by the most western spawn area

Not going to lie, the easiest way to tame these is by using a Icthy, they are so easy to juke Megalodons with while you shoot them with tranqs using your crossbow.

Fairly easy tame with slingshot on mobile. I found a female stuck on herb island, grabbed meat, knocked it out and started tame ing it. Trill in the process, but ye! Just get like 300 hungered rocks and like 3 slingshots and ur good! (Mobile btw)

For the 100% chance of death for the pachy primary attack, it's talking about the pachy, not the meg

You can outrun them with flippers on, don’t bother with any other technique

Easiest way to tame these guys is on a raft and a crossbow.

1. Hop into the water and be the bait

2. If you see one jump back onto raft

3. Shoot with crossbow with tranq

4. Wait for your new tame
