ARK: Survival Evolved Companion

Tips & Strategies

I found a 4.5 size and fed it to a 150 Hesperides and it instantly tamed
I saw one that made me not believe my eyes.
One that glimmered and shined with colors unique.
I saw one with red scales so bright,
That became every color of the rainbow under the light.
I chased and pursued it, but never caught up.
Until one day I found it again.
And let’s just say,
It lives in the lake inside my base today.
I tamed this with force tame but you can also tame it with fish basket
I usually see a lot of these in at red wood forest if you don’t attack them then they will just swim away from you
You can tame them with a fish basket, catch them with fish basket and release in water and it's tamed
Getting salmon for shadowmane
Trap saber salmons in a fish basket, then cryo the fish. Keep them cryoed until you want to tame a shadow, then make another fish basket, release them from the cryo and trap them again. Put the fish basket in your hot bar and submerge yourself to reset their timer. No wasting fish baskets. Get lots of fungal wood to make more baskets as they will destroy after you "tame". Also don't punch them because they tell their friends and fck you up
--AK
Place a fish basket to tame this.
I always kill these fish when they grow huge. Idk why, it just makes me feel like defeating an alpha (Which I never have), and also for the prime fish meat. Not much to say here but... They have a bleed effect, and they all swarm you like megapirahnas when one is attacked. If no other sabertooth salmons are there, it will flee (According to dossier I think).
If you attack one and don't one shot they will attack you I have noticed they won't if you kill one in one hit they will ignore you.
They’re scared of baskets so if you want one make a pen
I once went after one as a noob and got swarmed tip 1 get slingshot
2find rocks probably 30
3 mass slaughter
They can be tamed on Aberration by placing a fishing basket in the water, waiting about 30 seconds, and interacting with the basket when relatively close
Trap them in the shallow water so they cannot go anywhere and just place the bucket on the top of them. Bam. Tamed Sabertooth Salmon
In ark mobile these things spawn near the cliff and below it is raptors spinos and there's . Good for taking spinos
Will attack if you attack them, just stay clear of the water in general due to the amount of piranhas that spawn with them
Try not to hit them, because if provoked they suck your blood
Even if you only see one, keep an eye out for others after you've killed it.
One time I saw a giant one of these it was as big as a trike conveniently there was a trike for comparison.
