What are tips for mosasaurus? Tips and strategies for mosasaurus in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
I tamed my Mosasaurus with a Sarcosuchus. The Sarco was very fast and was able to instantly regenerate stamina underwater. I was able to shoot tranquilizer arrows from the Sarco’s back. I also used a SCUBA tank so I didn’t have to surface in order to breathe. The Mosasaurus was level 6 when it was wild. I was on mobile, so I took a soothing balm, gave it to the Mosasaurus, gave it some meat, and used about 100 narcotics. With the soothing balm, it only took about 11 meat to tame. He now sits in the water right by my raft and has to defend himself from sharks every once in a while.
Grab with a tuso while a tribe mate tranqs it for an easy tame
The x-mosa crossbow tranq amount is way out. On official i had to use an extra 100 tranqs for a lvl 90. Bring alot of extra arrows.
If trying to tame one make like a wyvern trap on the bottom on the ocean and hive someone else shut it. I use a sarco to lead it in the trap. On the center you can make the trap right next to the air bubble to escaped in the Airr away from any attack range and have a keypad to shut it.
Have someone on a plesi with high health tank the bites from the mosa and have however many other people you have tranqing it. Thats how we tamed our 150 :)
If you can’t find one, just go to their spawn locations and kill everything there until one spawns. Hopefully this helps :)
Alpha. First one I saw, first expidition into the deep. I killed it after it killed my 2 level 60 mantas. Got on the shore and shot with assault rifle.
Found one deep in the very bottom right of the map near herb island, be careful of jellies and those eels.
best way to tame this thing get a low lvl squid with points on health hold the mosa with squid and go up and wait 15 the mosa ko by the way if you get the mosa up the mosa will leave you and not attack you just wait the mosa ko if you find this help rise it
If you want to fight it without one I’d suggest housing a high level balli and when your low swim up
Your best bet will be farming hunters cave for 10x soothing bam and then using a good crossbow to take down a mosasaurus and then feed it prime meat I would say use a dolphin to do that so the other creatures don't attack you and it will easy as hell.
The turn radius of the Mosasaurus is huge so you can easily swim around and avoid the mouth while pelting them with tranq arrows.
Who tamed this thing with cooked fish meat, because they are the green ninja.
When taming wait for torpor to get really low, then dump all required narcotic. I usually do extra just Incase but doing this you can relax while you wait for your timer.
Theres a trick into taming a mosa by getting it stuck in shallow water, all you gotta is hit an ammonite and let the mosa follow you into really shallow water, this causes it to get stuck and it wont move no matter what you do. This can also be done with a tuso.
Im pretty sure you can use tranquilizer spear bolts in harpoon guns but i might be wrong
Get a high get a very high lvl sarco and use a mastercraft crossbow and start tranking
it
67 shocking tranq darts, 132 reg tranq darts using a 157% longneck rifle on 150 x mosa. Bring double what dodoex says is required. Almost had to break out the crossbow.
Breed up a Megalodon with a lot of health (~30-40,000) and face tank it. Once it’s on the run your shark will be able to catch it easy.
