I was just swimming around with my mosa, farming some black pearls and hoping i would find a tuso. A while later, i saw one, it was lvl 115 ( i play on medium so its actually a high lvl ) Then i just agroed it to my mosa and let it grab it. But, it wasnt grabbing my mosa because i had a platform saddle on it, i told my tribemates to craft an mosa saddle, but they were busy, and didnt even craft it. I was just thinking what i could do, then i saw the tuso grab a carbonemys. I instantly went to it and tamed it, now i keep that carbonemys’ implant in my inventory. ( i play on mobile)

Fun fact:tuso is really useful in pvp and is very fun to ride as

I was swimming on my dunk getting oil then this mf came out of nowhere and grabbed my dunk then killed it I sent my army of megs and they all died then I spent like 500 arrows killing it finally when it was low I was about to be rewarded with black pearls unfortunately it decided “ima make this little child’s childhood ruined and run away” haven’t played on that sever since

SCARIEST THING ON ARK. DO NOT ENGAGE.

I high five it and get on my dolphin and run away

It can take more than a REAL LIFE DAY to tame 150 with cooked fish meat literally.

Once I had a tuso, and when I bought god console I hit teleport while on my tuso it teleported it to land and I dismounted and I lost him.

Me and my buds were chillin at our base on a pvp server.Then we heard the alarms, we were getting raided.Luckily for us our base was on the coast.We swam into deeper waters, I looked around.Trying to find them.But the moment of looking down and seeing that THING scars me to this day.

For those beginning to read this story, this is Prologue to Ultimus by PrimalApex. A story that goes in reverse aquatic and a couple of other creatures that should belong in aquatic (Spino and Shasta). As a warning, as I’m currently writing this, it is sad and painful to read. Warning is advised to those who don’t like that sort of thing. I hope you enjoy!!!

Ultimus Prologue

The sun beat down on the earth’s surface. Bare and desolate, the earth dead from an aftermath a millennia before. Nothing left but empty shells of what existed. The earth is in an Extinction event, and may never return from it.

In the far distance comes a noise of metal hitting earth and dropping something the noise continues for some time. The sound was metal clashing earth and tearing earth from earth only to return it to earth. The noise was coming from a man. His eyes were covered with goggles and his face was covered by bandannas to keep the dust and corrupted Element out of his eyes and mouth. He stabbed a pile of dirt with a shovel and placed the dirt in a hole. After some time the hole slowly disappeared. When he was finished, what was a hole became a mound. The man put down his shovel and grabbed a small wooden cross and a hammer. He put the cross down in front of the mound and pounded into the ground with his hammer.

The man took his goggles off and then took off the bandannas showing a young face with hazel green eyes. His eyes red-rimmed. He rolled up his sleeves and showed his forearms with no implant. He knelt by the cross and said down to the grave “さようなら、旧友よ” as he went to lay down on the ground and began to weep.

After some time, the man got up. Put his bandannas and goggles on, and grabbed his hammer and shovel. And walked away from the grave. He turned and looked back at the grave.

“I will never forget you. I promise.” The man said with the sound of sobbing in his voice.

The man then continued walking away. But the further she got away from the grave. The more pain he felt. Guilt and anger began to creep into his heart. But pain and sorrow were all he felt.

As he walked away though, the more he felt like he was being watched by something. Followed even, he even thought he might’ve heard something whine or whimper, but he ignored it, telling himself it was his imagination. And he went on, towards the mountains. He climbed up the mountains and passed a strange row of what looked like radio towers. He walked up a path along a cliff face where he walked for some time until he reached a place where the path spit to the right and left. He took the left path which seemed to end at a dead end where a landslide had occurred. He walked up to the landslide and found a crevice that led into the mountain. The man squeezed his way through and entered on the other side, a way to his home…

~

What was written on the grave was ‘Rest in Peace, Reuben. For your death was not in vain.’.

As for the man, it is inevitable Extinction for him. For he is The Last One. The Last Man on Earth. And the Monsters of the Shadows wish to bring his end soon.

Everyone in the crossover is moving to snail, going to either make chapter here then move, or move to snail then write chapter three. Still have to write two chapters for bary.

-Lamprey

For the people who can't find them you have to hit the bottom of the ocean like very deep in the last half an hour I've seen bout 4 just sitting there but I mean I'm riding mine so I dunno how the game works if your on a certain tame whether you see more around of what Ur riding or not but yer very bottom and there just sitting chillin

So I was doing the hunt Meglodons pursuit with my eerie spino (stormy rainbow), when I spotted one of these guys on the shallows. It was moving around and I was to scared to see weather it was wild, or a tame on wander and/or aggressive.

-Venatrix

To get my first tuso it took me 1-2 months to find one after I got it I searched for another one and it took me 3 months to find another one it’s hard because only 3 spawn at a time maybe less or no spawns because of megs,Leeds,Mosa and Basilo so you’ll need to go on a killing spree to find one

Lemme tell a story. I have as Swimming around on my Diplo cause I was a low level looking for ocean creatures cause on my old acc I hated the water and only stayed on land. I found a pack of Anglers and crossed them off my list. The only ones remaining were a Annomite, Dunkleosteus and Mosasaurus. I remembered the Tuso stuck in the rocks and started swimming back to base on Herbivore island. I heard a noise to see A TUSO CHASING ME AND MY DIPLO. I let the diplo on the beach but left his tail in the Water. I heard my heard my bary running and looked to see THE TUSO KILLING MY DIPLO. He was murdered and my 2 Basilo’s and bary killed the tuso but I still miss Ranch dip. Take this to heart kids! ( I’m on mobile )

I was watching my brother wanting to tame a tuso and he found what he wanted and wanted to take a closer look and when he did it was a alpha tuso it one hit a megachelan It almost grabbed his maewing

Anyone waiting on new chapters on the red pike?

The Arks: Over Heaven (by Ben)

Chapter 64: Refuse.

Part 3/4

Ben clenched his fists, and in an instant, the stars in the void around them faded away. He sprung forward and knocked the Key Master away. The Key Master let out a groan as he was launched back. The heart ended up in the air, and Ben leaped up and grabbed it with his fist. As his fingers wrapped around it, the chains unraveled, and Ben felt blood rush up to his head again.

“Sorry. But I think it’s time to cut this meeting short,” Ben replied. The Key Master let out a snarl and dashed at Ben, but Ben forced himself to open his eyes in the real world. As he did, he felt his memory of what occurred the past few minutes slip away.

“I’m not going to remember. This is MY soul, not yours,” Ben said, “And I think moving on would be best for all of us.”

The void began to tear away, and the Key Master clenched his fists. A blue portal manifested behind him.

“It’ll be in vain, anyway. The constellations are against you this time. Things are different this time. Soon, you’ll realize you need me to move on again. Soon, you’ll realize… Soon…”

The Key Master’s voice flickered away again, and the void was gone. All there was now? A black void, with a white bright light ahead.

Ben looked at the light for a moment. It was the smell of al pastor tacos, the sweet voice of her whispered in his ear, beckoning for him to join her. A comforting warmth enveloped Ben’s mind and body as he stared at the light… and contemplated entering.

Things would be right beyond the light. If Ben just… gave up, he wouldn’t have to worry anymore. He wouldn’t have to feel anymore.

But he had a promise to keep.

“So despite that, I refuse to give up. I NEED TO TRY AGAIN!”

Ben turned away from the light, closed his eyes, and ran as hard as he could. A few more moments of running, and he could hear his heart pounding in his ear, and the soft breathing from the real world. The white light enveloped him like a blanket…

Ben blinked a few more times, a strange disorienting noise playing in his ear. The light began to fade, and he could feel himself lying down on a soft mattress made of thatch. The slit on his throat was gone, and he noticed that he was in a thatch hut.

“What just happened? Hunted by those women the first second, here the next…”

Ben stared at his hands. The implant was still there in his left wrist. His hands seemed to be trembling. The sleeves of his graduation robe were pulled down… And they were white? Ben stared at his whole body. He was wearing a fresh set, and a white one at that.

Ben could hear a door creak open, and he jolted his head to see a man walk carrying armfuls of cherries. He wore a white sleeveless jacket, and had a red long sleeve underneath. His blue shorts were covered in dirt. He had tired eyes, but as he spotted Ben, his face lit up.

“Ben! You’re okay!”

The man looked out the door and seemed to be calling out to someone.

“John, Carlos, Ben’s awake, he’s alive! He’s ALIVE!”

Ben blinked his eyes a bit more.

“John? Carlos? Those are my old friends, why are they here… Am I in the afterlife?” Ben thought.

The man rushed forward and wrapped his arms around Ben.

“You’re okay, you’re okay!” he giddily said, and with a hint of relief.

As Ben’s senses recovered, his eyes widened and his heart leaped with joy as he realized who it was. The cold metal of an implant brushed his neck, and Ben instantly got back up and hugged him back.

“Paul!”

The Arks: Over Heaven (by Ben)

Chapter 64: Refuse.

Part 2/4

A swirling portal manifested in front of Ben, and a shadowy figure came out of the portal. He had pale skin, a muscular body, and a white dress shirt and baggy blue jeans just like Ben. His hair was much longer, but he looked almost exactly like him. His most notable feature were the voids that culminated in front of his eyes. They were like black holes. He almost looked like Ben.

Ben’s eyes grew weary at the sight of him. A long lost memory floated back into Ben’s mind.

“You…”

“It has been so long since we last met. You really have gotten yourself into a conundrum, old friend,” the mysterious man noted. He smiled softly at him. He seemed to be carrying something bloody in his hand. Ben’s eyes darted to it and he saw a heart that still beat.

Bum. Bum. Bum. Bum. Bum. Bum.

Bum.

“What the-”

Ben quickly moved his right hand over his heart, but there was no pulse. Ben turned just as pale as his clone. He smiled in response.

“Oh don’t worry, you’ll have this back in no time. You won’t die… As long as you answer my questions. We need catching up to do,” he said. He raised his other hand in the air, and a key appeared in it. He twirled the key around, and then clutched it as hard as he could. Chains wrapped around the heart, causing it to stop beating. Ben let out a gasp. He felt his limbs getting weak.

Loud voices boomed. Ben was unsure whether they were coming from the stars, or somewhere beyond that, but they seemed upset.

“You know how much she loves this guy!” a distinct voice said.

“I’m sorry, I’m so so sorry…” another voice boomed back. The mysterious man chuckled in response.

“You’ll thank me later for that. Now. Let’s get down to business, Ben. What near death situation have you gotten yourself into to have ended up here? Lost within the inner depths of thy soul?

“Nothing you should be worried about… Key Master,” Ben replied with a sneer. The Key Master gave an annoyed look at Ben.

“Don’t give me that crass… Qb lbh jnag zr gb znxr lbh erzrzore, Ora?” the Key Master said. Ben glared.

“Qba'g rira guvax nobhg vg.”

The Key Master gave a devilish grin to Ben. He glanced over at the constellations.

“Lbh'er yhpxl V pubbfr gb uvqr lbhe frpergf sebz gur pbafgryyngvbaf. Gurl pna'g haqrefgnaq hf yvxr guvf.”

The Key Master seemed to stare at the constellations for a bit. He muttered something under his breath.

“Don’t even think about translating,” he muttered.

Ben cut him off.

“I’m here because of an encounter. Three scouts wanted to take me to their leader. She wants me, for some reason. I ended up… dying.”

“And do you know what that reason is?”

“No.”

“That’s funny,” the Key Master said. He began to toss the heart up and down like a ball, “Now. Answer me, Ben. Why’d. You. Choose. To. Forget?”

“There’s no reason. If I let myself remember, I would just go back all the time. I needed to learn to move on on my own without that world at my disposal,” Ben answered as honestly as he could.

“Lies,” the Key Master sneered, “I know why. You’re scared… Scared you’ll lose control. Keep going back, and you’ll never come back. You’ll just live your life there, with that girl-”

“Shut. Up.”

“Ahh, there we go! I guess you do remember,” he giggled, “You look really mad. I think deep down you never really forgot ME.”

The Key Master slunk into a lying position. He tossed the heart up and down in the air some more. Ben could feel himself growing dizzier.

“You know, it’s kind of funny to me. You used to be so heartless! But now here you are, groveling for what makes you most precious. You used to be even worse than that man with the soulless eyes,” the Key Master said, “But you do move on fast. It only felt like yesterday that…”

Ben shot another warning at him. The Key Master shrugged.

“Look. I know what you want. You want to return home. Return to the West. Return to your love. You want to keep that promise… But, I won’t let you forget your roots. Why you’re still alive. You can’t just leave that in the past. I’ll make you remember,” the Key Master snapped. The voids in his eyes began to grow larger.

I found two lipurodons before I found a tuso on mobile

Yesterday(16/2/2022) I was searching for plesiosaur with my tribemate. My tribemate was using a spino and me a basilo. So suddenly my tribemate said that he litteraly found a tuso in shallow water near southern islets. So I was shocked cuz this was the first time I have seen any tuso that tuso was like 230-260 ( I can't remember actual level) lvl. So when I see it I was happy cuz I had a balm and a basilo with over 20,000 health. So I get near the tuso and dismount from basilo. Then it was a heart attack moment bcz the tuso picked me M_M and I got unconscious. But thankfully I didn't die (thanks to my ascendant gauntlets and boots) but when I woke up I saw my basilo attacking the tuso with speed like 2000%.

So I set it to passive and tuso finally picked my basilo and then I use balm and fed raw meat(yes you read it right) And then................... Instant tame. It was like heart attack of joy.

Such a memorable day of my ark lifetime.
