Tips & Strategies

A beast of burden to the ocean as the bronto is to land, the plesiosaur can open many opportunities to the ocean. A good carry weight and large platform make it able to carry loads across the sea, or mobilize your naval superiority against your foes.

It's like a fish but bigger
Plesiosaurs are the quetzals of the ocean change my mind
There is a glitch at the redwood on the center, where plesiosaurs will spawn really near the coast and whole groups of 2 or 3 are glitched in the water, meaning you can knock out multiple plesiosaurs at the time.
My trusty sarcosuchus made knocking my plesi exceedingly simple, for three reasons. The sarco is fast, it ascends quickly, and you can shoot from its back. Once I separated my plesiosaur from her friend and killed it, the procedure was simple. When the plesi reaches a certain height it begins to flee. I dragged her up then filled her with tranqs until she aggro'd again. Repeat process until unconscious. Simple with sarco.
The trick is to argo one, have him chase you into an underwater cave where he will not be able to fit through the door but his long neck and head does. when you do this he will not de-agro, you can then get a clear shot from the cave with a bow and tranq arrows
Always spawn in packs of 2-3 keep that in mind while looking for them Rip my little itchy you were brave๐ญ
Taming one is not too difficult. A high level wonโt take too many tranq to knock out. When itโs knocked out, feeding it a soothing balm will allow u to tame it quickly, even with regular raw meat. Donโt forget to separate the plesiosaur u want from others in the area. Good luck!

The person who tamed a plesiosaur with a Sarcoโฆ.you seem like my kind of person๐ #SARCOS RULE
-Sarco master
They can't fit through the resource caves' entrances. Just lure it into one and pull out your crossbow/harpoon gun for the knock out. Just be aware of any nearby megalodons, as they can fit into the cave easily and ruin your swimming session.
These guys are great and super fast and also very strong. Warning when your gonna go tame these guys bring a sarco or an icthy , they also spawn In 2,s or 3,s so be careful because these guys do a crap ton of damage .
