What are tips for mosasaurus? Tips and strategies for mosasaurus in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
This is more of a question but a level 14 one spawned near herbivore island where I live but it wrecked me and my level 40 basilosaurus. I saw tips saying I should get it to follow me and there are ammonites down there but that agros everything. I can’t afford to miss a shot though.
Go to fjordur n travel around deep cliffs not to deep ocean pit for a non violent easy mosa tame just a chase beware of the paparazzi though
It took me a long time and I got it self a tel saddle
Im used to explore with a basilo when im going to tame these bois i also love them they are very fast and good for farming angler gel, prime fish meat etc also you can have the alphas but only in creative with forcetame also try alphas!! They are extremely fast -Diego
After i spent about an hour tranking and taming this giant. Something caught my attention for about a minute right after my mosa tamed up. I turn heading towards it, My mosa green taming sign disappear right ahead in front of me. as i got there i saw no more mosa, only the basilosauros left there. I was whistling all over the place, but never found it.
I checked my group menu, it says there that my mosa decay…😳 what. 😡😡😡 so much time wasted…
So make sure your are there to take your mosa as soon as it tamed up.
If your In genesis 1 and you are fighting a x mosa bring about 2000 shocking tranq darts
(Tip they spawn at the ocean)
Get one guy to hold it with squid. Move it closer to surface and have other guy tranq arrow it.
Attack an Ammonite witch will give you a rage effect then bring the Mosasaurus to the surface and it will stay there then knock it out idk if it works on of but it works on mobile
Try to grab it with a tuso and then have a tribe mate shooting it with tranqs so that it is knocked out faster and can’t damage you or your tribe mate.
Make sure when taming this or any non passive ocean tame, to use tranq spears and harpoon lajnchers to split your knockout time in half.
Alright so I was looking for a mosa and couldn’t find one for a while as if they went extinct but then something came form the back… an ALPHA MOSA. I wasn’t prepared for this but luckily the tame I had was very fast so we swam away quickly still low health. (I got a mosa btw :D)
If you find one just hide and hope it does not find you.
Does not attack you in really shallow water
Tip for knocking out grab with tuso then have your friend shoot it with traqs
I find it easiest to build a trap using 4-5 behomoth gateways (arranged parallel to eachother in a “rib cage” like formation with 2 gates on either end, leave a little space between just enough to slip through with an Icthy or Megalodon) in order to tame a Mosa, simply leave one side open to lure the Mosa through before speeding behind it and shutting it in.
Bring lots of bolts and/or arrows and a healthy amount of narcotics because its topor depletes fast.
This is an easy tame, just get an itchy and shoot tranq darts at it while a couple body lengths above its head, mine dissapeared due to a glitch though (in mobile)
It's not too hard to tame one of these if you have a deep sea taming pen/raft (it's possible! I'm surprised too). Just be wary of that bite it packs a punch. Lured it in the cage with some barys bred for speed and had a tribemate seal it in. Be prepared to wait a while and bring plenty of quetzal kibble or mutton if you can.
Tranq this creature from above their depth limit. They will run away as their topor increases so bring a Megaladon or a Mosa if you somehow managed to get one.
Easiest method to KO - Grab the mosa with a tuso and bring toto shallow waters. There you can get a tribe mate to KO it, or if you're solo like me, you can drop the mosa and if the water is shallow enough it will stay still and it's an easy KO
