What are tips for mosasaurus? Tips and strategies for mosasaurus in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
(Rip for taming on ragnarok)
Lure him into the underwater cave, once there hop out of the water and shoot away, just be sure to follow him if he tries to swim away, if possible place a behemoth gate behind him when he swims in so he can’t leave.
Hope this helps😊
Just got ripped off.....just fought an alpha mosa under the impression that I’d get some black pearls but I didn’t.... wtf !!!!!!
If your on mobile please use soothing balms, otherwise it will be the most tedious thing ever.
5 behemoth gateways, one stone gateway door, 18 stone pillars and you have a sweet trap
Look,spot it ,and swiiiiiiiiim away!!!
All you need to tame this is a dolphin, a good crossbow and a lot of tranqs, a lot of narcotics, a scuba tank, prime meat or kibble, and good armor since water is usually freezing at low depths.
You find this near the border of the world deep in oceans.

This guy consumes a TON of narcotics and super quickly. Be sure to bring hundreds of narcotics with you. A sarco works really well to knock it out since you can shoot a crossbow on its back.
You can pretty easily just swim in circles and shoot tranqs in to it.
There is only one way to tame it in PC version but Mobile version have two ways. First way, Go with Basilo or Itchy and tranq it in the ocean. I suggest Basilo because Electrophorus can stun you and ruin your adventure. Must take Scuba with you.
Second way, This is only for mobile players.You must have a Revival platform. First kill the mosasaur by your strongest water Mount. Don't harvest the body and take the Implant from it. Then place the Revival platform in water which must be deep enough otherwise your mosa will resurrect in Air and get killed instantly.
HEADS UP on my server it took 2000 spear nolts and 2 and a half hours to tame a 348 mosa
If you’re planning on taming one of these, don’t do it behind the snow biome unless you have a lot of bio toxin (preferably a stack or two just in case, depends on the lvl.) and make sure to have a swift mount that can dodge the attacks of the said Moss, such as a plesiosaur or something faster. If you do happen to knock one out in the snow biome ocean I suggest you go up for air and wait for 30 secs, (and for health) then go down and wait for 30 more seconds and feed it bio toxin. Keep doing this until it is tamed, Usually his strategy works.
Happy taming! :) Hoped this helped.
I found one in the back of Herbivore Island (I live there just so you know) and I KO’d it with a crossbow (NOTE: it was a level 4 and I have stuff boosted) and I was happy, but then the sarco I was on killed said mosa
How bout just trapping it!! 5 Behemoth gateways and a gate on each end!! Easy and effective
It tamed faster on raw meat than fish meat?????
I went looking for one, instead I found a alpha mosasaur, a liopluerodon, and a plesiosaur. I gave up on the mosasaur and settled for the plesiosaur. You find them at the bottom of the ocean, as well as the alpha, which is almost invincible, may I tell you, and the plesiosaur, which looks like the clown from your nightmares and is just as aggressive, just getting down there takes 15 megs, quite a few annoying ichthys, maybe a manta, oh, and the liopluerodon, and no, it’s not a ‘yay’, ‘cause they only stay tamed for half an hour. The electro dudes don’t help the strive, and neither do the anglers. The baso isn’t much of a problem, it’s body guards are. And it’s not even likely you’ll find one, nor have the oxygen to tame it. The levels for the saddles are obnoxious, isn’t it already a hard tame? Just saying, though they are pretty strong, they are VERY, VERY, VERY, hard to get.

So you want to tame a mosa??? You came to the right place! What you must have
Mastercraft plesiosaur saddle
Plesiosaur
Toxicants arrow
Crossbows
Pro tip compound bow
Plesiosaur saddle free for doing no air pursuit!! Freee
next go around the map a couple times do a tidy save if you can't find one before you explore the plesiosaur cannot be knocked out from jelly fish and dumb eels
Last time I found level 6 moss to bad my toxicants arrows were out :(
... time to do it again
It’s actually not that bad to tame this thing. The only problem is the ocean since everything wants to kill you. But if you clear everything, you don’t have to worry about it. Bring lots of tranq arrows and narcotics these guys have pretty high torpor and it goes down kinda fast but not that fast. If you have a Basilo that can tank, use them. If you have a Baryonyx that can tank, use it. Just watch out for jellyfish
I recommend a trap. Make it out of foundations, pillars, ceilings and a behemoth gate all in stone. Use an icthy with levelled speed and health to lure it in and close the gate behind it. Then simply tranq arrow it until it’s down. Preferably use at least an apprentice crossbow, prim will take way to long
