How to tame: HOPE THIS HELPS YOU :D

1. Wear full ghillie suit

2. Crouch up to it with fish in basket

3. Press e on pc, triangle on PS4 and I think x on Xbox????

4. It should tame quite a bit

5. Track it by the feature they added last year, I’m sure you know what it is

6. Slowly crouch away while looking at it

7. I would make sure to stand about 55 meters away from it

8. Repeat the steps and you should have a shadowmane

9. Hope you enjoyed I’ll cya in next one when I explain how to tame a milk glider/maewing CYA :DDDDD 8D

For Fjordur players,

you can find fungal wood for fish baskets underwater very close to beaches. They look like bright brown dried mushrooms and you can harvest them with the axe.

Have tamed a few of them now.

Passive tame using fish caught in Fish Basket in your 0-slot.

Larger X value fish seem to giver higher percentage tame per feed.

Fish Basket Tips:

1) Place basket in water and it will take several seconds before it is active. Once active you watch for fish to go near it and press E to catch it in the trap.

2) Fish in basket have a spoil timer. Place basket on hotbar and get in the water to refresh spoil timer.

3) Fish in basket can be released (into protected waters for security) and be “tamed”. You can later come back and put a basket down again to quickly re-catch the fish again. This allows you to have fish on standby for when you happen upon that particular Shadowmane you have been wanting.

4) Waiting on fish to get near basket can be a test in patience. Piranaha however will attack you, and can therefore be kited to a basket, where you will have a split second to catch it in the basket before it destroys the basket.

Taming Shadowman Tips:

1) Where Full Ghillie

2) The Shadowmane will do a few little circles when it is about to goto sleep

3) Crouch when within 30m of them.

4) I seemed to notice that if I had something in my hands, then they would wake just before I got there…so I go in empty handed.

5) If it aggros you, then taming will reset to 0.0%…so dont let it aggro you

6) As soon as you feed it, turn around and run away a good distance.

7) The taming does not wear off unless you get aggro…so be patient.

8) If there, is more than one Shadowmane in the group, it isnt required, but sure is easier if you take the time to split the group (fly high above in tek suit and shoot the unwanted ones with a rifle while they are all sleeping)

YOU CAN JUMP IN WATER WITH THE FISH BASKET IN HOT BAR AND IT WILL RESTART THE SPOIL TIMER! it has helped me quite a bit in taming these water cats

You can refresh your fish basket by having in your hot bar and jumping into water

I suggest that you search for the fishes first (preferably 1.5x and above) before looking for shadowmane and then cryopod them, that way you can release them later and recapture it with fish basket after you found the shadowmane without needing to worry about fish basket spoils time

Also, as long as they don't aggro to anything their taming rate won't get down

( °^°)7

Be prepared to lose brain cells when taming these, took me 3 hours.

Fungal Wood can be found in the swamp on Asgard (purple trees) and in the Aberration caves. It just doesn’t look like the Aberration trees we’re familiar with. Look for small wooden like stalks holding a round white seed like pod. Hack away.

On Fjordur you can make fish baskets by taming a Gacha that can produce Corrupted Wood.

All you need is 1 stone foundation and 8 walls, hover over top with your tek suit let it teleport to you it will fall into the trap, turn your chest off and poof, you can feed through walls like any other passive tame, no need for all this other stuff.

They don't lay down from around 22:00 - 8:10.

Since I haven't seen anything regarding this I'm gonna share another useful tip:

I know the filled fishbasket is a nuisance with both weight and the need to refresh it once in a while. What you can do is after you've caught a fish, throw it out again, cryo it and you can preserve it this way as long as you like. Just craft some more baskets when you are going to tame a shadowmane just bring out the fish from your cryopod, use baskets to fill it up again and then use them on the shadowmane. Up soother ppl can see it too

If you have a fish basket, put it in your hot bar, jump in to the water, then it resets the spoil timer.

Are you considering taming a shadowmane? I may have some ideas on how you can! But first as with all of these, everything I say in this tip is entirely up to you to decide, however you tackle this beast in however you feel necessary with :D Now let’s get started shall we? Ok this is not a common beginners tame, as it’s a timed passive tame creature! If you have access to a rockdrake, I suggest bringing one to use it’s cloaking ability to scope one out! I also recommend some cactus broth to keep you undercover when things go south (medical brews might be necessary when dealing with these guys for the first time) also I recommend bringing flak/ Tek /or ghillie as you eithor want full taming effectiveness or just simply do not want to die! Now let’s start off with the taming supplies: All you need is tons of fish baskets and determination! Now let’s figure out where to find these guys! I’ve located them in fjordur, they spawn in asgards rockdrake laggoon! They hang out near the shore as well as the little islands within it! And this is where the chaotic taming process begins! Step 1: whip out your fish basket and yoink some fish ( most of the fish will do, as long as they are bigger than 0.5 size however the bigger the fish the faster and better taming and taming effectiveness will be) Step 2: grab your rock drake and use the cloak ability, this will make you invisible to basically anything! Step 3: Find one that’s alone (or go the passive aggressive way of finding a pack of them, single out one and beat the rest up) Why one that’s alone you may be wondering, because packs are harder to sneak up on, and why sneak up on them? Because you tame them while they sleep, they sleep for about 10/15 seconds until they wake up, then they walk arround and if they don’t see anything worth chasing down they will go back to sleep, however they have 2 blind spots and a single one will be a sitting duck to tame, because a pack of them may take advantage of this! They cannot see behind they’re back or they’re tail, to feed them the fish you have to crouch and sneak up to them using said blindspot and feed them, this is another part where the drake steps in, once you feed it the fish, you stealthily yet swiftly make your way to the drake to once again cloak, as the shadowmane will wake up and go invisible to hunt you down! Since the shadowmane cannot see you can simply follow it until it becomes visible once again and goes straight back to bed! Rinse and repeat! Eventually you got yourself a all and all great tame! What can this lion crossbred with a lion fish do? I can explain! Alright this creature is well rounded out, it’s attacks are swift and when attacking a creature will slowly generate a buff making its attacks more and more powerful! Ever seen a rapter attacking something? Pfft this things practically a ninja! It can be ridden without a saddle but if you look in its inventory it has its own natural armor! Also this creature has a pack ability when you tame a male and a few females, the male (when you hold down c and right click) will roar giving every shadowmane in the vicinity another buff, it consists of armor boosting, a damage buff, and not to mention a major speed buff! Also the shadowmane has multiple diffrent ability’s consisting: of a huge leap (doesn’t require mateboost), a flash attack( basically goes top speed and smacks whatever creature is closest) and the cloaking ability, its pretty self explanatory, other than its kinda slow! I hope my info will help you along the way! Good luck!

Tip for genesis 2- use a net gun to get a quetz. Get it to at least 5k stamina. Cryo him up. Make 5 foundations, 12 ceilings, 12 walls and 12 fence foundations. Then you want to go to rockwells garden following the city trench all the way to the other side. You'll find a building with with a pool of water behind it. You'll want to set the trap up on the roof of the building. The trap is 2 by 4, foundations in the corners connected by the ceilings. Put the fence foundations on the inside and the fence on top of the fence foundations. You'll be able to crouch under the ceilings but not the foundations and the fence foundations blocks the shadowmanes line of sight. Go and scope out a high level kitty, kill it's pack then cycle visor to check for not like. Pop out the quetz and go and pick kitty up and put them in the trap. Don't thank me, thank phlinger!

When you catch the fish, throw it back out and cryopod it for later. Build a 4 foundation 16 wall square trap with no roof. Hover over it and shoot the mayne with an arrow. It will teleport into the trap, and then leave render as fast as possible. Come back in at low altitude so it cant see you. From then on you’re good, no need for ghillie. Feed it fish nonstop until it tames, even while invisible! It seems to sleep for longer while in this trap too, currently 21:26 and still sleeping...

Every one says “this is the easiest way” and get all the likes. The ONLY easy way is building the hatch frame trap, you can sit there no ghillie suit feeding it through the floor and sneak away when it lays down to unpack more of your fish. All these most liked tips do not account for the fact you need cryo pods to put the fish you trap into so they don’t decay, and then you have to put them back in a trap to feed the shadowmane. IT IS NOT EASY TO TAME IT WITHOUT A TRAP, IT IS NOT EASY TO TAME IT THROUGH A WALL, YOU WILL WASTE HOURS ATTEMPTING SUCH “SIMPLE” NONSENSE! You need to set up the hatch frame trap described in multiple undervoted tips. lead the shadowmane into the trap via ramps or hovering above it and letting it jump to you, and staying crouched underneath feeding it trapped fish, when it goes to sleep you can sneak away to unpack more fish, or deal with threats, and when you go back you need to wait for it to sleep and approach from its backside. They only sleep during the day so get away from the trap before nightfall or stay put and do not move throughout the whole night.

Don’t forget to turn on all the engrams to get the fish basket

If you don’t have collision enabled on your server you can just use a cage to catch good fish then place a fish basket beside it this makes it so much easier to get fish

This is the only tip you need net it then trap it with Fence foundations and double doors then derender it so it loses Agro
