What are tips for shadowmane? Tips and strategies for shadowmane in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
Best fish to use is sabertooth salmon
You DONT NEED GHILLIE!! Make a 4x4 stone foundation 6 double door frames 4 hatchframes 16 walls. Agro it fly above the trap. It will Teleport to you. Fly away to lose agro. Go back sit under it and feed. Easy. Apart from the 3 hr grind for 1.5+ fish.
Build an elevated drop trap 4x4 foundation then one wall on a corner then 4x4 ceiling pieces(can use hatchframes in the corners), from that wall mirroring the foundations. Then 2 high walls all around. Use the shadowmanes own leap to drop it into the trap then fly directly up out of render and comedown out of its aerial line of sight. Using the foundtions on the first floor you can crouch and feed it through the floor and itll never see you if you dont fly over it. Dont recommend a ramp as other nearby wild dinos may wander in and aggro it.
Manes can only be Tamed between 0800 and 2200. You May search for extra fish at night time. Tame doesnt get reset if you out of render distance.
MAKE SURE you sneak up from behind it not from in front or else he will sense you wake up and taming will reset!
Get a bunch of fish basket and catch fish, bigger fish =higher efficiency. You'll find the asleep in the Rockwell garden. Approach them from behind and feed the the basket, be sure to track them because they go invisible once fed.
From what i know you go through areas in Rockwell’s area and find them sleeping and they will wake up and attack you.
To the guy who said it's x to tame on Xbox, it's y but you were close
So your taming waiting til hes asleep
He falls asleep you sneak over boom hes awake go's invisible and the taming goes all the way down 😱
All my work you scream to your console then you dicide to tame the levil 12 one in sted
If you catch the fish then release it cryo the fish you can re catch it and use it when needed helps the stock up on higher fish up if helps wish I had seen this sooner
If you want to tame a shadowmane I would get fungal wood from the blue orb plants in the shadowmane area then make a trap. Four stone foundations two on both sides to make a square then two stone walls on all sides then ramps up then let it follow you on a flyer and then feed fish through the walls then you have a shadowmane.
If you’re ever taking him on gen 2 keep your tel shirt on, it might make him wake up a bit more but it’ll sure save you from it if it agros
Handy tip if you don’t want to carry around a bunch of Filled Fish Baskets: The captured fish can be released from the baskets in water and they become a tame, you can then Cryopod them and keep them in your inventory. When you’re ready to start taming you can release them from the Cryopod (in water far away from predators and the Shadowmane) and recapture them in a fresh basket.
Check out the nooblets channel it tells you how to tame it really easily the only thing is that you need to unlock fishing baskets(obviously) and then just follow his steps and then boom you got a shadowname. He is a really good YouTuber finding the easiest way to tame dinos for example he tamed a lvl150 phinox in 2 minutes and this can happen for the lowere lvls so go check out his channel and tame the dinos you always wanted to, good luck.
