I found a level 51 plessi near herbivore island and lured it to shore then knocked it out and boom now I got a high level plessi (but jellyfish still scare me when riding it)(it died :(

To the person who was wondering where they spawn on the island they

Spawn near the edges of the map

Trapping- it's a 3 for 1 trap. Trap will work for plesio, moss, Squid. 4 sides of behemoth gates. 4 corner inside trap with pillars higher than gate. 3 Celling on each pillars going center of trap. So only a small gap in center. Now take a small angler or ichy or shark. Lure dinos in and get out from top and close door.

Voilà.

Early game taming trap for big water dino. Now your problem is getting it tamed after that. They take a lot of ressources to tame.

I would suggest plesio and kill other stuff with it like alpha to get black pearls and Lure squid in same trap.

There is an invisible barrier at a certain depth that the plesis will not cross, you can drag them up to this and shoot them till they deagro, when they do reagro and repeat until their knocked out. Also, you can drag them to the entrance of an underwater cave, and shoot the plesi, as long as you dont venture too far into the cave, it will not deagro.

4 behemoth gate frames and two doors did the trick for me. I got 2 knocked and killed the one that didn’t go in the trap. I used an angler to Agro into trap. I increased movement speed

If trained well, they can be really good for looting deep sea crates, as well as visiting underwater caves

All of these tips are to complicated

Just net it and use crossbow or harpoon tranq bolts easy peasy

Hint: if you use bolts bring 2 harpoon guns 1 for nets one for bolts so you’re not switching and reloading your only harp gun. Easy solo tame

Since a certain update, you can no longer get the plesiosaur to chase you up until it can't reach. When it can't chase you anymore, it will run away every time. Bring a dunk and let it munch on it against a wall. Especially on Ragnarok, the ocean is very open on there.

Some one said there are no under water caves but I have seen about 7 out of 12 caves just wanted to let u know

Always 2 near the east bubble under north tropical (the center)

To the guy from December 2020 whom talked about the no air pursuits

Get it right, man

A no air is hard without cheese (cheese strat at the end of this)

B lazarous chowder isn’t good. Scuba tanks are waaaay to easy to get at the point you unlock the pursuit. (Around lvl 75)

C it isn’t always mastercraft it depends on difficulty you we’re lucky enough to get a mastercraft on easy or medium.

Cheese: make a bed at one of the underwater caves, then put all your stuff in a chest or box, after, kill yourself or teleport to the bed, once your there, you may want to swim a little further. And boom your done. (Maybe teleport a strong or fast water mount down to you, are if your in multiplayer, teleport a sarco, Baryonyx, spino, or diplocaticous down to the bed.)

I knocked out a female lvl 11 in ark mobile and found a male but then I glitched into his tale and died and died together ,🙃

If you're taming a level 97 with raw prime, you're gonna need about tree fiddy narcotics.

I was trying to tame one and my icthy killed it. Stupid icthy

If you have flippers on float up if they try to bite you they'll miss 80% of the time because they're stupid

I used an itchy to tame thus sinve nothing agros it unless you hit it and its OP, if you get a good crossbiw and a fast icthy its easy and a good method.

How to keep it unconscious spam bio toxin

If you grab one with a tuso you can have a friend knock it out and you won’t loose taming effectiveness

guide on how to tame a plesiosaur: I used my 20 k basilo for this, so go up until the plesio stops aggro, if it doesnt aggro after a certain depth. thats perfect, now all you need to to is go a little bit deeper next to the plesio, whistle my 20 k health tame and let it soak. now i used my basilo because of its regen, so it will stay alive for years. anyways, i shot it with my ascendant BOW instead of crossbow because since the basilo is tanking the hits, its distracting the plesiosaur. So I dont really need to move, then i sucked more oxygen from the diplocaulus and kept shooting and finally the plesio swam away, then a few moments later it gets knocked out and boom. you got a plesio ;) (I also used a taming balm, rex kibble because im mobile, and some prime meat and fish meat)

I recommend using icthy because it’s fast and u can easily dodge the attacks
