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?

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

most stress inducing tame across the arks, but the rewards are many

If you don't want to wait for the fish to get inside the fish bascket you can place a wooden Cage on the fish and place the bascket near it

Kill whatever is nearby so it doesnt aggro and harvest their corpse. Also they are nocturnal so pnly can be tamed during day

Here is how I, a fairly BAD player, tamed a Shadowmane. First of all, if you want an easier time despite how much this map is said to be harder, I would pick Genesis 2 for the map due to the tek suit. If you don’t have Genesis 2 then you could use a decent flyer on Fijour, sorry if it is spelled wrong. First of all craft 4 foundations made out of adobe, stone, metal, or tek. You could use wood but it might break. Once you have crafted those foundations craft 16 walls out of the same materials listed above. Then craft around 10-20 fish baskets, just in case, I have boosted taming so idk how much you might need, levels also need to be put into account. Once you’ve done that, get as many piranhas as possible, they are easy to get since you can use your body as a barrier and easily trap them while they are distracted. Once you have them, find a shadowmane of your desire and nearby place the four foundations in a 2 by 2 placement and make two layers with the walls. Once you do this you want to agro the shadowmane and make it chase you until you’re near the trap. This is where you’ll use your tek suit or flyer. Then hover over the trap and the shadowmane will warp to you and fall into the trap. Then leave render distance and it should stop attacking your structure. All you need to do now is crouch and feed the fish very fast. No ghille needed. Note: you will need to kill any other shadowmane part of the pack. They will continually follow each other to reunite no matter how far they go unless they join a different pack. Thanks, sorry for the long message! I hope you enjoyed and I will make a message for taming reapers. -TGIB

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.

Be well prepared to lose your sanity when taming these things.

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
