Won't attack you 'til you attack it. If you find some washed up on the shore take a rex or something else you have with high HP (10k HP+) and let it grapple onto it - while it's grappled jump off your mount and go in between tentacles to feed. It'll let go of your mount on its own after a while.

Use a plesio on following you. Ride the plesio to the tuso to get grabbed by the tuso. Feed tuso and using scuba flippers swim above repeat till done.

Solo tame is possible. Just gotta be good and have a plan before hand.

How to tame a Tuso!

First, let’s prepare!

What you need: A tame. Tuso’s can grab most creatures, except Basilio’s and other creatures that you shouldn’t use for this tame anyway. Make sure it either has a high oxygen stat or can breathe underwater. Also pump it’s levels into health. SCUBA gear, no Lazarus chowder as this tame is a longer one. Black pearls, in stacks of 50.

How to tame

Find a Tuso; I have only ever found them around Carno Island. Swim down to it on your tame. Let it aggro on you and grab your tame. You will know you have been grabbed because your screen will move around without you moving it. Now dismount, and quickly swim up to its beak-thing, with the black pearls in your last slot of your inventory (In a stack of 50), and feed. Repeat a couple times, the higher the level the more feeds, until tamed.

Now you have tamed a Tuso!

Utilities

Tuso’s are very powerful, with an ink and a grab ability. Their grab ability will deal torpor as well as regular damage to whatever they’re holding.

When they are killed they drop:

Black pearls.

Tuso tentacle-a tribute for a boss, I believe the dragon.

Absorbent Substrate, a material for the gas mask.

There are also alpha variants of the Tuso, which drop:

Even more black pearls.

Alpha Tuso Eye, a tribute for the Overseer boss.

Absorbent Substrate

You can use a spino to it has a lot of hp and demage

Normal: mosa or pleisio

Alpha: impossibility

Or just use a high level mosa, or a pack of every thing in the ocean

No raw prime

You tame one you find one out side your door somehow on land

Tip for finding in mobile: you can use tidy save to clear up the spawns

(This rip also applys to other rare Dino’s like the quetzal, the mosa and the giga)

Wanna go hunting squid friend ……………. The squid

going though the ocean (is looking for the male level 50 tusk I spotted earlier and returned with appropriate tame and food) can’t find it (starts to question my very sanity) the 100 female abouta snatch my tame (hehe) [I tamed her name ideas? no tentacle stuff jokes]

If you are taming on small tribes a 150 goes to 72% with a single feed. After the feed give it a bat juice and boom insta tame 150 100%. Can use shadowmane. The thorns doesn't mess with the taming

How to easy Tuso tame on mobile: do hunt megapirrahnah for 10x balm and get scuba gear. Then, find a Tuso and wait for it to grab a turtle. After that it’s easy taming.

ARK MOBILE currently, the squid won't drop black pearls!

Don't bother searching for black pearls in Ark Mobile! Feed the squid a stack of cooked prime meat after giving it soothing balm!

(This works well on easy servers, check gamepedia for how many stacks it'll need with soothing balm)

Take a raft (make sure there aren’t any Leedsichthys around!) then put a chest on the raft full of black pearls and take 50 at a time. An take a lot of Carbonemys or a basilo and tame. Beware the weight of the pearls!

They will only attack you if you are wet. Stay dry, stay safe!

How to Tame a tuso without any casualties.

1. Be ready with a balm and black pearls. You want to have it tamed instantly or you can end up with a dead tame. Use Cooked Prime meat if compromise.

2. Agro them back to coast

3. Have it grab a Tame with high hp.

4. Feed it as fast as possible

Uses:

1: Oil Generator

2: Good Tame overall

3: Can Carry Ankys and has high weight

4: Tank. They have significantly high hp and Damage. You should ride them otherwise the AI will mess up a lot.
