Taming & KO Tips

How do I tame a megalodon? Tips and strategies on taming and knocking out a megalodon.
Someone please make a mod of these into big otters I’m scared of sharks
Herbivore island usually has megaladons in the bay
Your gonna need a bigger boat AHHHHH
I tamed this with a ramshackle slingshot when I was level 15 like not hard to tame btw I was on herbivore island and I tamed 3 easy tame especially on mobile.
Multi-meg taming trick. Their turn radius is horrible. Stay to their inside and keep using crossbow to sink tranq arrows into them. IF you get outside the turn radius then they will shred you apart
The megalodon is one of the easiest tames in ARK.
Simply use a crossbow with tranq arrows, and swim at it while strafing left or right. The megalodon, like most large underwater creatures, has a horrible turn radius, which is very easy to get inside of. Just tranq it till it runs, than tranq it till it stops. If your having trouble with this tactic, boost your speed or wear scuba flippers.
1.get it to agro you and swim as far in land as possible while hitting it with tranqs from a cross bow
2. Now that your far inland when it tries to run you follow it before it can go into nothingness
3.keep hitting it with tranqs after it tries to run and knock it out
Go just far enough in the water that you can see some megalodons then shoot one and then go on shore and it should follow you and then tranq it out and tame it
Can be horse kicked by equus if lured to the shore.
Saves harpoons and tranqs.
1. Reinforce your raft with stone foundations, they won't be able to break them.
2. Make them attack your raft and shoot at them with tranq arrows (Bow and crossbow can both be used but a crossbow will be quicker) when they swim away because they are almost unconscious make sure you hit all the arrows you shoot so they won't escape.
3. Tame them with the food of your choice (high level Megalodons will need some narcotics or bio toxin, you won't need it immediately but be prepared).
4. Have fun with your Megalodon!
1. Make a boat and find a high level one near the shore
2. Tranq it on the boat and feed it regular meat and you don’t need narqs.
Unconsious Megalodon Dont agro other Megalodon. Remember , you DONT need to trank them in the head.
I have found that it is easy and safer if you use a pelagornis to lure the megalodon into a trap. Doing it this way if something really bad come you can just fly off of the water instead of trying to get to shore.
Megalodon taming is so easy but transfer to bace is so hard because many megalodon in sea all kill your megalodon but you tame megalodon Level
Level 15 To - 100 or more this is so easy to transfer your megalodon
These are easy to tame I tamed 3 in one day
I'm sorry to say this but, they are terrible! They aggroe other creatures easily (even their own kind and same with the manta rays), and the others can be pretty far and still be aggroed (once I aggroed another megalodon abot fifty feet away!) Do not recommend unless you need meat, like fish meat or prime fish meat. Hopes this helps. ~Sharkboy Out!
I want it as a pet in the game
If you have a fabracater you can shoot them with shocking darts around 2 and three and feed it raw fish meat it's pretty easy.
Easiest is to be on a raft and shoot it with tranq darts or arrows, makes a great water mount, used a level 18 and a 21 to kill a level 10 alpha raptor when we lured it into water
Be cautious while taming. Your megalodon WILL attract other megalodons once tamed, just like ichys. Make a saddle while taming so you can head to base ASAP, or exterminate any nearby wild megalodons. If you kill other nearby sharks, you'll get some prime fish meat to help speed the taming process!
