Otters are wonderful companions, whether holding artifacts for you, or regulating your temperature, so here’s a guide to help you tame one.

1. Otters are found in most of the rivers on the island, so I recommend just following rivers until you spot one. Sometimes they can blend in with the fish, so take it slow, so you don’t miss one.

2. When you find one, it can be useful to trap it, because they tend to move around a LOT. Either way, you need to kill fish to feed it. The fish have a number next to their name like 1x or 2.3x or .5x. This correlates with the size of it, the higher the number, the bigger the fish. The highest number or biggest fish gives the most taming progress, so go for those. In addition, the type of fish matters. Sabertooth salmon give more progress than coelacanth which is better than piranha.

3. Once you kill the fish, you need to drag it. Then go to the otter. While holding the dead fish and looking at the otter, it will let you feed it to the otter. Repeat this until the tame is finished

Happy taming!

Your fellow survivor

So basically if you want to tame them it’s rlly easy even though a lot of people say it’s hard but this is how to do it: First, make sure you have raw fish meat in your inventory. Sabertooth salmon will work best but they also eat megapiranhas and coelacanths will also work, but sabertooth salmon is their favorite and will tame the fastest. So once you have the fish meat in your inventory put it in your hot bar and find your otter. They live near rivers so if you can’t find one just keep checking different parts of the river till you find one and you can check different rivers too. Once you find an otter you like, you’ll need to go really close to it and then tap on the fish meat in your hot bar while you’re close to it to feed it you can also feed then soothing balm to make the taming faster you DON’T knock it out to feed it you just go close to it then tap on the meat from your hot bar and then keep feeding it until it’s tamed. Enjoy your new otter! These little guys are so adorable in my opinion they are the cutest things in ark they’re so precious and cute also they regulate your temperature so if you’re too hot you can pick up the otter and it will make you cool and if you’re too cold you can pick it up and it will provide warmth. Also they can wear hats and they look so adorable to equip them with a hat just put it in their inventory and click equip. You can even send them out to hunt for pearls too. So that’s basically everything you need to know about otters hope this helped!🦦😝

Just feed it fish on mobile. I have four words words Belle otter allo pack one like for one ancient amber for her

These little guys are so much easier to tame in mobile, but harder to find. You still need to kill a megipirahna, but you don’t need to grab its corpse to feed the otter. After harvesting its meat you can easily walk up to it and feed it until it’s tamed. It doesn’t run away in mobile, and I’m sure you can use any fish meat.

Taming and utilizing the otter

Chapter one: location

The otter in Ark ASA the Island map can be found in the northern part of the red woods, and major river ways. The spawn points make them hard to find, and since the otters are so tiny. There is a small spot in the swamp area where they spawn but recommend not going there since there could be kapros, sacros, and deinosuchus’s (if you have the mod). Theres also a small lake in the redwood towards the west where you can find them

Chapter two: taming

There’s two ways, an easy way and more difficult way. The easy way is you want to find it and you want to have an argentavis and catch it. It will be in your argie’s mouth and you would want to catch fish, preferably sabertooth salmon, (1.5x size is the best). Kill it and drag the body to the otter and feed it. The harder way is when you find it in the water. You just wanna kill fish and drag it towards it and feed it. It’s more difficult because you could lose sight of the otter, or it could die.

Chapter 3: Utilizes

One major utility is that it could regulate your body temperature. When you pick it up on your shoulder, it gives you heat and cold resistances. This could help you with longer expeditions and the north of the island. You can get better resistance if you increase their melee damage. Another utility is that it could hold more than one artifact at a time, unlike you and any other. You can put hats on it, which makes it look even cuter than it already is. Hopes this helps!!

This is my first tip next will be a dodo
