How to tame tuso
1 get a tame. I don’t see why turtles are so good at taming, meg worked fine but either will work. lvl up heath
2 search deep sea, I found 3 on brutal from the bottom left corner of the map to the top left corner of the map.
3 if you have soothing balm use it but I didn’t need it. use black pearls takes 50 at a time but if you did use balm you can use cooked prime meat takes 30 at a time I think.
4 go on a killing spree in the sea to open spawn spots for tuso.
5 when you find it, kill all eels, mantas, and any other hostile Dino’s near it.
6 tame by letting it grab your tame, then feeding it the pearls or prime meat.
U can only feed it black pearls and it must be grabbed on something to feed it
They are easier to find while riding a raft, having a monkey on your shoulder, and having a beard. It is recommended to have a big raft that looks like a pirate ship. The ship must have cannons.
I tamed one of these and immediately died, of course my reaction was like with most other tames of oh god dammit now it’s gonna die, I zipped over on a dolphin and found it sitting innocently in a ball of about 50 meg carcasses with 2 plesiosaurs in the mix

WARNING THIS CREATURE IS AGGRESSIVE AND KILLS YOU

You need two people, one for feeding the black pearls and the other to feed the turtle that is in the grasp of the Tusoteuthis, with sweet vegetable cake for the health and to feed it stimulates berries as well
Will not grab mosas in mobile!!!!
When the tusoteuthis grabs you you can avoid its attacks by firing an arrow at its beak during the attack
Read this, it might help you:
1: The best place to encounter tuso is 90-91 lat and cover all longitude from red ob to the end of herb Island.
2: Don't solo search, make a party and cover full bottom of the map.
3: Don't search in shallow water and surface, go for mid and deep sea.
4: They need to grab your tame then only can they be tamed.(Take Carbonemys with health and speed pumped)
5: They take 50 black pearls per serving.
6: They only agro in deep sea.
7: Last and the most important, the server must be brutal or their chance of spawning is not that much. Put server to brutal and for one day atleast go killingspree in ocean to open spawn spots for tuso.
8: Pump only melee and health to tuso.
If you have spent a really long time looking for one then it could possibly be because there are to many wild dinos in your world which means you need to go on a huge killing spree to open up some spots for the Tuso or any other Dino you can’t find to be able to spawn

This noodle monster destroyed my lvl 46 itchy in under 5 seconds and didn’t even let me get its stuff back. After trying to kill it in my rage it decides to run when it’s health gets low. Now I kill any tuso I find for revenge.

Basilosaurus (whale dino) is immune to the squids grabs. Its also immune to jellyfish stings. :)
Mount a basilosaurus, grab yourself a turtle, have the turtle follow you on lowest setting, while you're on the basilosaurus. Move very close to the tuso it will grab the turtle ignoring the basilosaurus completely. Wait for the tuso to hold on to the turtle and then dismount your basilosaurus and quickly swim up to the tuso's face up close and feed the tusa black pearls. Very easy tame! Enjoy your sea creature!
The note that the taming is non-violent is entirely on your part. The squid however, can be as violent as i danm wants
Tame turtles
Let it attach to turtles that you are riding
Swim up to its mouth and feed black Pearl's to tame
When Ark says that the unicorn is the rarest creature. That’s a lie. At least the unicorn spawns. This thing is supposed to. I have spent the last week living in a pearl cave in their spawn hotspot and have not seen evidence of a single one. Reply to me @Tofuna
I’ve feared the ark ocean for a while now and this just brings a inky cherry on top
Be careful getting grabbed near the world border or else the squid can shove your tame through the wall deleting it from existence.
Use a Mosa to tame this beast. Let the Mosa get grabbed wait a couple seconds get off feed it black pearls. Have your mosa on follow lowest, swim a bit away from the Tuso after feeding it, when the Tuso lets go the Mosa will swim to you. Repeat until Tuso it tamed. Super easy!
