An accidental tame!
So,I was searching the whole ocean for Sea Giga aka mosasaurus with my Basilo.He was so slow that I thought it will be easy for me to find Mosa,but no luck,so I grabbed my ictchy which is much faster in search of Mosa.Ichy is handle with care creature,so I tried to avoid most threat in search of mosa.Now,in deep sea adventure I encountered a lot of megs and this plesiosaur, just ran away from them at first glance and kept searching then suddenly a highest lvl (450) plesi appeared and then I saw my inventory I had 400 Toxicant arrow.So, I grabbed my ascended Compound Bow and started to knock out it making sure it's struck.And it took me 48 arrows with ascended Compound Bow.So this is how I got my Highest lvl plesio but that come with sacrifice of my ichy it got killed by jelly when I came to surface to find taming food for plesio
AND THE JOURNEY CONTINUED TO FIND THAT MOSA
Okay here’s a story:
I always stayed on land and frankly, I was afraid of the water in ark because I always died when I crossed a small river.
Anyway, I play with a mod called Ark Eternal and in that mod, some dinos eyes glow different colors.
So I had never seen a plesiosaur. And my sister (who was playing with me) started mentioning something that was stuck between a few rocks on the waters surface
So I walk over there, at night, expecting a meglodon or something and I just see this thing staring directly into my soul with glowing red eyes.
Then I tamed it
It died in about 10 seconds
R.I.P Demon Plesiosaur
Was out on my raft one night, it was pitch black and I peered into the water. Creepy face you would only see in the dark peers back at me. I panicked and fell of the raft and was stung by a million jellyfish, now I neva eva go into the water cuz I am really afraid of this things Creepy face. NOTE TO ARK MAKERS, DONT CHANGE ITS FACE Even if it’s scary it’s RAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAD!!!
I got stuck through a massive rock i somehow got inside it. the rocks were loading and somehow my Plesiosaur is also inside the rock with me the border was near us. I tried logging off the game hoping the rock we were stuck in will disappear so my Plesiosaur can get out but. my plesiosaur was near the border of the ocean and then when i joined back the Plesiosaur WAS GONE. It was gone. I tried whistling but its gone. Rip unnamed Plesiosaur.
(That plesiosaur didnt even lasted an hour i pretty much got karma for no reason)
Please. Do not logoff near the game border...
Here’s how to tame a plesi,
1. Grab a imprinted icthy and swim down around herbivore island with about 150 tranqs.
2. Find the plesiosaur and start shooting it. Make sure to be above the border they can’t go above until tamed.
3. Once you knock it out put kibble in it.
The reader
Never stop moving on the surface when you’re being followed by tames or wild animals your Plesiosaur will get stuck. This happens because the animals that are following you will pin you on top of the water and your plesiosaur won’t be able to move. This happened to me when I was hunting with it and im being chased by 20 mantas, 5 megladons and some jellyfish then I think I escaped them so I stop on the ocean surface and all these Dino’s just pin me on the surface, I can’t move or attack them I’m just stuck so they completely obliterate my plesiosaur leaving me all alone with 30 wild water Dino’s and they instantly kill me. Keep these guys above water.
