Tips & Strategies

If you’re on the center, go to the east water dome. There’s a small gap of water between the dome and the rest of the ocean where sea creatures can’t reach. The tricky part is when it starts running away after reaching a certain torpor level but this makes it a little easier.

It's like a fish but bigger
The person who tamed a plesiosaur with a Sarco….you seem like my kind of person🙂 #SARCOS RULE
-Sarco master
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.
If you’re on Genesis, get it to run into a bubble. Then it’s very easy to knock out.
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.
Plesiosaurs are the quetzals of the ocean change my mind
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
To who said that dossier lied by saying it doesn’t attack humans.
Probably they died after writing the dossier
Always spawn in packs of 2-3 keep that in mind while looking for them Rip my little itchy you were brave😭
Taming one is not too difficult. A high level won’t take too many tranq to knock out. When it’s knocked out, feeding it a soothing balm will allow u to tame it quickly, even with regular raw meat. Don’t forget to separate the plesiosaur u want from others in the area. Good luck!
