Taming & KO Tips

How do I tame a megalodon? Tips and strategies on taming and knocking out a megalodon.
You can fit these in a underwater taming raft if you use a large hatch frame
How to step by step
- Get a lot. LOT. of tranq arrows.
- After getting around 200-150 arrows get a crossbow
- You can use tranq spears in harpoons too!
- Get on a icthy (throwaway icthy)
- Find a lone shark with no mantas, other sharks, etc
- Get as far away as possible while being Able to hit
- Watchyour distance from shark and wait 5 seconds between shots.
-Tranq it
- Put around 100-150 fish meat in it
- Tame
And boom! That’s how I did it! Ofc please don’t forget to breathe when you need to. And these fellows need behemoth doors if your going to put it in a pen!
Use a ichthyosaurus and it will chase you but you can outrun it and lure it to the shallow and shoot it with tranq arrows and it shouldn’t move when it’s at the shallow then I recommend using raw meat to tame. This is how I tamed my meg!
Step 1 : Get a Baryonyx or a Ichty
Step 2 : Get a good crossbow (Any will work)
Step 3 : Have tranq arrows
Step 4 : Find a megalodon of Your choise
Step 5 : Knock it out
Step 6 : Tame it with prime meat or Fish meat!
On the island map to tame, go to herbivore island ( bottom right of map) and wait as they show up in the lake bit. As u shoot then they will go one side to the other, so take a bird and switch sides each time and you will have a megalodon
these guys are relatively easy to tame just grab a ichy and crossbow
Best thing to do is have a crossbow with narco arrows to get it to come to you kill a fish near you then hit the shark in the head with the crossbow
Get a raft and shoot it to be passed out.
Just tame it just shoot it with tranqs
One way is get a baryoniks and stun the megolon wich you want and if there are other megodon stun them two rhen kill all the meglodon that you don’t want so thy don’t interfere when you are taming then stun the meglodon again and shoot trans darts not normal darts or you may end up for sure killing the meglodon enjoy your tame
Before you tame it- make absolute sure every wild manta and megalodon within a twenty-mile radius is dead. Mantas will go straight for you, the sharks will kill your tame
I tamed a low level one only level 4. Seems that evwrthing hates tamed Megaladons. It got swarmed by 3 other megs and 2 Mantas. Lost it within a few minutes of taming. Your better off with a Sarco if you intend to stay near the surface
Use 50 shocking darts to tame theses megalodons!!
Something that’s able to breath under water. I got one of those turtle dudes with 2000 heath. Killed it super fast without losing a TON of health.
Lead it to shore and punch its nose.
1:get an ithy
2:get an crossbow and tranq arrows
3:get closser while shooting it
4:run away
5:get bacck if it runs away from you
6:its unconscious now
Easy tame just get and itchy and a cross bow with tranqs u can shoot while on the itchy and can escape if needed because the itchy fast! Now I have 1 itchy and 2 megs! Btw and itchy is a passive tame super easy! Now the mantas won’t agro on u when u r on your new meg!!!
I just had a raft and it didn’t hit me so I just nocked it out with narco arrows BUT you need two platforms out one on each side
In the recent update (Nov 2020) these guys got a bit of TLC and now do the gashing effect that ravagers have.. be careful!
I hit him with a sling shot multiple times to tame
