Tips & Strategies
Beware many servers are having a glitch where tuso grabs your tame and either glitches with it or will only eat once and permanent hold your tame until you kill it. We all know how wildcard likes to ignore game breaking glitches and what not lol. So much for water specialization when we can't even tame our dinos
More Tusoteuthis Taming & KO Tips
Okay so if your crazy (me) and have enough time to be constantly attacked and really like want them (me) if you know the underwater cave go there there is usually 1-6 of them inside and very high level I seen lv250 these in there however thereโs like 100 megladons, 1000 eels that will lag you to death and an bunch of other nasty things soooโฆ yeah I would recommend really high health to do this or clear the cave first and slowly get the target closer to the exit. Another important reminder on mobile you Tap the Kraken if it an feed one tame. swim right up to its beaks and tap it with Black pearl in the right slot bar AS IT GRABBING AN DINO (good chance of death it also advised using anything other them black pearl while taming would result in the Dinoโs death unless it has an Giant health pool) another thing I would recommend Mossa or ples for this cave , ple are always in pairs of 2 and Mossa although intimidating are easy tame if you have good gear and fast dolphin tame .
How to tame tuso
1 get a tame. I donโt 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 didnโt 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 Dinoโs 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
I tamed one of these and immediately died, of course my reaction was like with most other tames of oh god dammit now itโs 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
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!!!!
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.
Basilosaurus (whale dino) is immune to the squids grabs. Its also immune to jellyfish stings. :)
Tame turtles
Let it attach to turtles that you are riding
Swim up to its mouth and feed black Pearl's to tame
The note that the taming is non-violent is entirely on your part. The squid however, can be as violent as i danm wants
