What are tips for mosasaurus? Tips and strategies for mosasaurus in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
Looking to tame this Underwater Apex Predator?
Nice! Lets get started!!!! ;')
SUPPLIES FOR THE TAME:
-Ascendant Crossbow
-Toxic arrows
-Lots of Bio or Narcotics
-Mosa Saddle (Platform Saddle or Normal Saddle or TEK Saddle)
-Mount (To keep you safe from any Electrophourus, Angler,Euripyupturid,Megalodon, and Jelly-Fish) (Idk how to spell Eyripyupturid lol)
-Scuba Gear ( So you wont drown)
Alr lets start!
For Mobile:
Step 1: Find the Mosasaur (Mosas are found deep under the sea, they are uncommon in the Red Obelisk sea's)
Step 2: If you find your self a high lvl mosa then get ready (Make sure your mount has good turning radius like a Megalodon since they have a little good turning radius)
Step 3: KO your underwater Giga! (Like a plesio Mosas stay bellow since they have a height limit so if you go up its height limit then it wont attack you, just make sure no Electrophpurus or Angler and Megalodons and Jelly-Fish come in your way)
Step 4: Once everything is cleared and your mosa is KO"d feed it Quetz Kibble and put the bio or narcotics in its inventory. (Fact about ARK: Quetzals are the easiest creatures to farm)
Step 5: Just wait and keep clearing the area when more enemies come.
Wohoo!!! You tamed a mosasaur 🐋🐳🥳🥳!
Now lets start with its abilities! It has only 2 abilities! Which is sad but still cool!
TEK SADDLE ABILITY:
ABILITY 1-The Mosa can shoot underwater plasma guns just like every creature in ARK that has a TEK Saddle. (Sadly this only works on PC and consle not in mobile :'( )
PLATFORM SADDLE ABILITY
ABILITY 2-You can build a small base on its back or create a underwater fortress to make it rule the seas in PVP
Now for the Disabilities when wild and tamed! It has 2!
Disability 1 (WILD)- The mosa has a height limit now i know this is cool but for the mosa its not lol.
Disability 2 (TAMED)- Even if the mosa has good Melee, Stam, And HP It has bad turning radius which means anglers and electrophourus and Jellyfish and megalodons go in its belly and tail so it wont attack the opponents its also same with plesio.
Thanks for seeing my Guide! 😁 Hope this helps ya"ll! And take care 😃😄😃😄😄
I was riding on my Sarco in the ocean coming back to my base from Herbivore Island and I decided to dive down to the bottom of the ocean quickly because I can. I almost got to the bottom when I saw a Mosasaurus swimming around and I freaked out and went right back to the surface of the ocean and swore not to go back down there ever again because I don’t wanna die.
Getting enough quetzal kibble to tame one of these bad boys can be hard to come by. Starve the mosa, and have sheep waiting at the surface, you can kill them for mutton to feed the mosa.
I LITERALLY found a alpha mosa before a fricking normal mosa it had 60000 health
Get 250 tranq arrow and 3 crossbow I recommend using Lazarus chowder too. Go deep down with any aquatic mount except for basilo because it takes damage in deep area in ocean. Next find a mosa recommend taming low level it is faster to tame. Next when you find a mosa shoot it with tranq arrow it will take maybe 126 shots on mosa. When it's knocked out maintaine its torpor with bio toxin or narc. The kibble for mosa is the extordanary kibble. The egg are extra large egg for the extordanary kibble. Also cooked prime meat can go effectively to 6%. However Raw meat will take half as long. You would need 450 narc for the mosasaur. Put the food of your choice and narc or bio toxin in it inventory. Maintaine it's torpor so it doesn't wake up until its tamed. If this was helpful please like on it. The ability of the mosasaur is a powerful bite. The fact about the mosa is its bite is more powerful than the rex. Their saddle can be learned a level 78 and crafted in Smith with hide fiber and metal ingots. That's all I got for today thank you for reading and have your self a very amazing day!
Best way to Tame a Mosa or at least what I do is. . .
I hit an ammonite and with the agro effect the Mosa should follow me to the surface, once the effect of the ammonite passes the Mosa couldn't return to the water and be stuck on the surface and u can shoot him easy from the Coast
This works with other animals like plesi, dunkleo, etc, u can even kill Alpha mosa with this trick.
I think everyone knows this but still reminding that mosa has a water depth limit which it can't cross and come more higher in wild.... just use that to tame and can stay closer to him
There are few ways to tame this sea giga. Let me explain them all:
1. Just damn battling: Get a fast water mount and literally kite Mosa as you smack its face with your torpor weapon.
2. Trapping: You need to create a trap like a cell. Get a Benemoth dino gateway and a gate, some foundations, and pillars that Mosa can’t go through. Make it follow you into the cage, then get out from the gap that pillars created and shut the door. After that, knock it out and feed it.
3. (and also my favorite) Ammonite Strategy:
Punch an ammonite. It will give you the rage debuff and every creature will chase you down, including the Mosasaurus. So the Mosasaur has a limit on depth. What i mean is that it can’t go higher than a set limit, since it’s a deepsea creature. But when the rage is on, it will ignore the limit and follow you even to shallows. Get out of the water and wait until your rage wears off. The Mosasaur won’t be able to move since it has broken it’s limits and can’t go back. Hit it with your torpor weapon and knock it out.
4. Going Up and Down:
As i mentioned earlier, the Mosasaur has a set limit on depth. Hit the Mosasaur, then let it swim up to you, of course swim away whilst doing that, also hit it while you’re swimming away. After it has reached the limits, it will stop chasing you. When it does, go deeper and hit it again. Go this couple of times until it gets knocked out.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Don’t forget to kill the surrounding creatures like Plesiosaurs, Tusos, Electropus and Anglers since it can attack you and ruin the taming.
Thanks for reading and good luck Survivors!
only legends tame a mosa with raw meat and slingshot
Like the Giga, Tranq dart your friend and.. well swim..
They can be found in the deep waters of Carno Island
"Their sluggish speed makes them easy to avoid"
Hahahahahahaha
Helena, you lying lier
very useful to hunt drops on, only issue is jellyfish dismount you and will kill it. in my opinion it's better to use a squid they have more health and the melee is just as good. until wildcard stops jellyfish hitting this thing it's a risk your loose it to a lagging render field.
Ark mobile: stay above their max altitude and u will be ok, if u run into one at the bottom of the ocean swim up fast as u can, otherwise...RIP
There is crystal cave on Ragnarok around 12,23ish where you can trap the mosa, I use a ichy to trap them as they are small enuf to get in the sallow area but the mosa can’t so they get stuck👍... hope this helps
I was trying to find one (The Island, I'm in Mobile) and I suddenly got in a part where there was a dunkleosteus, a leedsichthys an alpha mosa and a normal mosa all together. I tried to tame the normal one but his torpor was resetting EXTREMELY FASTTT. Obviously I surrendered lol.
Honestly this Dino isn’t that hard to tame, just make sure you bring a couple hundred narcotics and a fast swimmer, like a sarco. I would definitely recommend scuba gear, but as long as your oxygen is pretty high or you have a fast swimmer you should be completely fine. Good luck taming!
The giga of the sea can be fond at the bottom of the sea
