What are tips for shadowmane? Tips and strategies for shadowmane in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
The type of fish does matter piranha's will give more taming percentage
So last night my I was taming a 145 Shadow and it glitched. Stuck at 80%. It's done this before but I figured out how to fix it. Fly through the gate back to the right side of the map. Then return and voila. Should lay down again. OFC it has to be day.
A trap will consist of 8 fence foundations and 8-16 doorframes (stone)
net gun the shadowmane then finally cirle the shadowmane in the fence foundations and make a wall using doorframes around one layer should work but two helps
Shadow mane are kinda hard to find but are mostly found near the bottom left genesis 2
Use 1.5 fish or higher to get 100% taming effectiveness
I would only take fisch with min 1.2x and some with higher stat like 1.5x. I had one 2.0x, 4 1.3x and 3 1.2x and i got a 150 lvl with 4x taming speed
Make sure u have a fish bigger than 0.5
If trying to tame u need to squat by its butt/back then feed it the fish
Ark:ok how will the strongest creature on history look like? Everyone: big scary boss able of going kabooom.some derp: big see through aqua cat. Ark: so we have chosen...CAT.
They are easy to trap in a 2x2x2 box as others have stated
They fall asleep at 8:00am each day
Armour cap is 124.8 regardless of the colour
Holding RT(xbox) will do the strongest attack, 1000+dmg and if you kill the creature with it, you can utilize it again
Good luck and happy hunting
Wear a ghille armor set, sneak up to it and press triangle for PlayStation, E For PC and X or Y For Xbox, I would consume cactus broth as well to be sure, repeat this process and you’ll have a George the thunderbane
In my experience, when I’m taming/feeding a (wild) shadowmane, I aim to feed it near their back more than near the butt/tail. Almost every time I go to feed it from directly behind the tail, I won’t get the prompt to feed it and it’ll wake up. It’s so annoying especially when I go through the effort to only feed them 1.5+ fish.
Make a trap, have it teleport into the trap and feed it through the walls, if this is your first time I will recommend to make the trap out of stone, but if not, wood.
Shadowmane is already eating..... 🙆♂️😭
Just build a 2x2x3 and have it follow you to it
These guys are crazy, I was exploring the Rockwell biome for the first time and a lone male jumped me out of the sky off my snow owl,, luckily before I hit the ground my tek suit activated and I got my snow owl back before it killed the Shadowmane. After that I made sure I was extremely high up. I got jumped from about the height of two flower like trees. I also am chattering some fish currently to tame the guy now. He’s a low level but that’s perfect for a first time taming one. Also is a brilliant blue color.
Trap a bunch of fish using fish baskets then empty the basket in the water so you can cryo the fish and fill a cryo fridge of fish ready for when you need them, you can trap tamed fish easily because they dont move unless you tell it to
