Beware all who dare cross these nasty sardines and live to tell the tale. If ye be dumb and cross these ungodly creatures of the sea. Ye be warned all tamed beasties shall die a most horrible death and ye along with it for it shall send all who tread tbeyre water's to Davy Jones locker. If by some miracle ye wishes to capture this beast build a trap and lure it in with something fast. Do not tame with a club. Use trank arrows, darts or harpoon. Forget saving ure lure. Or it be the locker for you!
Let it munch on your mosa and basi while you blast with arrows or harpoon. They won't run when torpidity gets high and will regen health quickly while attacking your tame. They starve in a few minutes, no narcs needed. 12-14 superior kibble for 150 on 1x
Tame a high level turtle and let this thing munch on that while you knock it out. Watch out you don’t kill it as it doesn’t torpor run and heals quickly. I call them sardines, although they are definetly not sardine sized hahaha
If you are on the center you can find tons of these in-need-of-a-dentist fish around the beaches of the redwoods. Hope this helped 😃
Just kite it to a beach and itll start to flop, use a longneck and tranqs, easy knock out and relatively safe, no traps needed for this one
Any tanky mount or lure it to a trap with an icthy (sacrifice the icthy) get out and start shooting it with tranq arrows
(Also dont listen to the people that say to use tranq darts they heal rapidly so your fine with tranq arrows)
It has high torpor so lure it to shallow water and trap it there, use darts. Arrows may likely jill it before it KO’s. It prefers superior kibble. Takes about 6 to tame a level 110 so scale it from there. Hope this helps!
These are pretty easy to tame, I didn’t even trap one I just had one attack my basilo near the shore and they don’t torpor run so that’s helpful.
There’s no need for a trap. All I had to do was get it to aggro on my Meg (while it was on passive) and I just shot away with my crossbow, tamed with prime meat. It’s a really quick and easy tame!
Super fast and annoying, just trap with dino gates and it’s an easy tame
