Tusoteuthis is a powerful deep-sea mount, valued for its heavy attacks, ability to grab and disable creatures, oil gathering, and resistance to jellyfish and eel stings. Wild ones are aggressive and can quickly overwhelm you or seize your mount, so keep your distance unless prepared, and explore with a sturdy aquatic mount—Basilosaurus are especially useful since they resist its grab. Avoid fighting or taming near map boundaries, and clear nearby threats before approaching; taming requires feeding it while it holds a creature.
