Remember not to go to tame these creatures in the nighttime as they are invisible are quite active.

Immune to electric eels shock haven’t tested cinadra

The females are the only ones that can cloak. Males give a buff to other shadowmanes. Also, males have bigger manes... or are they frills? What are the spikes on a lion fish called? Anyways, my advice is to use a male and a female, as they will boost each other, as well as mate boost.

Both can do a teleport dash and we assume they climb, the females have less pronounced head frilles and can cloak you and your allies, the male can breed.

I want dis in the aberration zone on valgeuro where the big crabs spawn aka the gas mask zone

I think this will probably be a thyla with no saddle that can cloak? Maybe?

Give its wings and keep it passive

Pain too tame easy too find you only have seconds to tame them so beware plus you CANNOT transfer full fish baskets to gen2 so you’ll have to catch fish first and then tame

The Shadowmane is a chimerical prowler creature in ARK: Genesis Part 2. It has a fast chain-teleport-strike attack that can hit multiple targets in a row. The Shadowmane can also cloak those around it. It has been described as the King of the Twisted, the Queen of the Coral Ridge, and the Arbiter of Shadows.- Cracker the Kapro (The Steel Cookie)

This was one of the more difficult things I have ever tammed in Ark. The importance of stealth is huge here so here’s some items you will need!

-Fish baskets filled with higher level fish for a better tame effect. (2.5x is the best, but you can do it fairly alright with 1.1x)

-Ghillie suit

-It’s nice to have a extra hand to clear out the area around the Shadowmane this makes for an easier tame

Now how to do it (without cage).

-Crouch near 30 meters of the animal

-Place the fish in the basket in your zero slot

-Feed animal only when they are laying down (the prompt to feed will show up when you are near)

-They only lay down during short durations during the day, they are awake at night and this will cause you not to be able to feed.

-IMPORTANT: feed the animal only on its back side or butt area, never approach the front of the animal they will agro you and you tame will be brought to zero if so.

-This is where the extra hand comes in handy, having the area near the animal cleared of ANY Dino’s will cause your tame to not attack anything making it much easier to get them to lay down for the feeding.

-Continue to feed whilst they lay down, being very stealthy, and BOOM! You’ve got yourself a Shadowmane :D

I tried for 8 hours before learning to put press E on its back hips. Only way it worked for me. (Ghillie suit crouch)

Use net gun after they are trapped run away till music stop go back and wait for them to lay down and repeat easiest way

These guys are massively overexadurated in how hard they are to tame, all you need is a set of ghillie and a couple fish above 1.4 size and you just sit next to it and follow it from a bit of a distance. If you do this you’ll have one of my personal favourite ark creatures, I was able to do this for a 120 at lvl 30 easily

Why isn’t this labeled as aquatic? They are just as good (if not better because of water buff) in the water than on land. Also, they can stay underwater forever.

One of the best guys for water, is even faster in water than on pad and has no oxygen stat!

The male gives friendly creatures nearby a buff, The female is able to cloak surrounding friendly creatures.

Beware when using pillar trap because shadowmane can glitch inside after “night rushing” and be unable to go to sleep at next day and your tame is lost!

I tamed mine in about 30 minutes with a trap made with a 4 by 4 stone foundation floor and 2 high walls you can feed it through the wall making it an ez first tame on gen 2

When taming make sure to have a harpoon launcher and the net projectile. This will make trapping the shadowmans incredibly easy as once it's netted you just have to build the trap (usually a 4x4 of dinosaur gateways with doors) around it, this will allow you to have the shadowmane in one place while you go out and get fish, or make it very easy to sneak forward and feed it by hand.

If you're trying to tame a shadowmane, you can make a 2x2 stone foundation with 2 high walls. If you get the shadowmane into the trap, you can then feed it through the walls. If it is attacking the walls, simply leave render distance and come back and it will stoo
