What are tips for otter? Tips and strategies for otter in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
(I’m on mobile) I just built a box without a lid (1 thatch foundation, 3 thatch walls, 1 thatch door and 1 thatch doorframe) by a lake so I could fish for fresh food to tame then I hopped on my pteranodon and I followed the river around the red woods (without the swamp) to find one of these lil guys and pick him up then took him to the box I made and put him in it. Turns out the for some reason the otter wanted COOKED fish… luckily I had some already so I just fed him that and some soothing balm and he tamed in about a minute. DO NOT READ THIS TIP THINKING ALL OTTERS EAT COOKED FISH IN MOBILE. Up if you found funny or helpful
I've found my 5 otters in two spots. The first two where the beavers spawn near the waterfall area where there's that one cave (27,48.4) on the top of the waterfall the little water area below the beavers & then the other with the beavers above. Second spot (no cords, sorry) near the blue OB where there's that big area of water with that huge weird tree in it. Hope it helps!

Found this guy in the redwoods river I tamed it and named it otis
They move pretty fast and you can loose them easily, so I suggest making a pen to put them in. Having a Ichthynoris is quite useful to catch salmon as you don't need to be in the water fighting them, the bird will snatch it right out of the water and bring it to you.
Wanted to tame a big back creature and saw this cutie pie, I had to abandon my mission to acquire this baby cuz she's so cuteeeee, even cuter than my sarco🗿
