1. Have decent crossbow 2. Ride a Sarco, or Rhynio 3. Shoot from saddle of tame 4. Fish doesnt torpor run, so just keep tanking it and shoot Done

[@edgardooa]

i did it with a baryonyx. they heal fast with the blood rush thing so as long as the dino has a good health and saddle its easy. bary stun helps separate and kill the others.

[@23Raind]

Why not a basilosaur?

[@1110jesse]

@@23Raind can't use weapons while riding a basilo. also it's too slow to kite if you just want to stand on it and whistle it to move away from xipha. At least I think it's too slow, I've been on SE since it launched so I wouldn't know for sure.

[@IchbinX]

@@23Raind Cant shoot off it's back.

[@kenmorris8219]

Started with sarco, then the fish beached itself. KO'd it on land.

[@MichaelWootton-mx3pd]

I’m always amazed at the work you do in creating the easiest traps. You are the greatest around.

[@OldGamerzNeverDie]

Nice job Steve.. glad you finally got em to spawn! Ive been using a Baryonyx... use the tail stun as often as possible and just keep shooting with narcos. Helps to have a good saddle, tanky Bary, and / or an ascendent crossbow, but.. can work with vanilla.. as long as you have enough health on the Baryonix. Never had one run on me yet.. although I have had them take a break from being distracted.. but a quick pop in the butt with a tranq arrow usually gets em hauling back at me.

[@Sea-raider]

Great tips! Finally got my Xiphactinus thanks to your trap method 🎣👍

[@joeltheraftguide]

Have you watched Raasclark beat all Island bosses with a pack of toothy fish a pig and yuti? It’s quite amusing.

[@mushiriderchannel9087]

The required cryo fridge and generator to throw out a pod is what has killed the game

[@fakeAratPrime]

Ah yes because crypods were always a thing lmao. The new cryopod system is way healthier, it's just that we're used to how absolutely broken they were on ASE. You can highlight a bunch of huge problems about ASA, but the cryopods aren't one of them (even then, if you want op cryopods just use a mod).

[@moafishing5654]

​@@fakeAratPrimehealthier for whom and for what? Just needing to carry a gen , a fridge and a foundation with you is healthy? Lmao. This is the most stupid decisions these monkeys from wildcard could make. It's not healthy, it's just stupid and totally unnecessary. Glad I'm not playing official anymore and enjoying my SP world with awesome mods and modders that put these Devs to shame

good to see you back doing what you do best

[@michaelr5357]

Heyy nooblets always love your work especially your taming vids :) Are you gonna do any more let's play series /vids.?? omg I so enjoyed them they are relaxing and funny as lol You looking at doing any new survival or strategy games etc ? Anyway keep up your awesome work 😇

[@kitchengun1175]

i learned that the hardest thing about taming the nibblers are their ridiculously high torpor i saw a max level with my awesome spyglass and the thing had like 15k torpor, that's 3 times more than a mammoth of the same level so if you're using tranq arrows and a crossbow that deal lets say 300 torp including letting it increase for a couple secs after the initial burst that would mean a max level would take around 50 arrows to KO that is ludicrous for a mid tier creature that you can ride before a beaver its a real good thing that they don't run away and you can just manhandle them to sleep with a tanky enough sarco and plenty of tranqs

[@caseyrules1173]

So funny listening to Steve insult the poor fish constantly 😂😂😂

[@kingtiger5045]

Nice vid bro,keep up the work :D

[@1110jesse]

I wonder.. I have done absolutely everything else possible except the dino wipe on my single player save, and no Arcos have spawned on my map even once. Fasos do spawn pretty well and almost everything else. Haven't seen a single ovis and only 2 megatheriums so far. Also at one point there was literally 0 yutis on the map, but that got fixed after I caused some local extinction events in the mountain ranges with my wolfpack

[@LaRvae01y]

Can tuso grab it? This will definitely be the best way to tame it, although somewhat time consuming

[@russellpizel3750]

I just hop on a turtle and shoot from the saddle while the Xiph swims around it - it stays agressive until knocked out. Throwing out something as a distraction (tuso or basi) also helps

[@Jandok166]

Cant you use a harpoon to reach the trap faster?

[@ManChickin]

playing centre and these things seems to be everywhere... in packs. ill be casual exploring on my itchy and a pack will just shoot out of no where mouths gapping its terrifying 😂

[@onetwonickles9662]

Thanks Steve

[@demonzero677]

Honestly there's an easier way to do it. Use one of the amphibious dinosaurs like sarco, kapra, or bary, and so something similar, except instead of a sign at the end, continue the sides to the shore. Draw agro and just run through the trap and onto shore, then around and pop the gate in at the entrance, or close it if you already installed the gate. This way not only is there zero change the toothy fish can glitch through the sign, but you can even set up a shack on shore to have narcos stored up, plus your generator and cryofridge if you're on official doing this.

[@deino0779]

Was fully expecting there to be another dumb gimmick i have to do to tame this thing, thank god its just a basic tame

[@ericunzueta7468]

I use a baryonyx to tame them i stun them into the trap alot easier

[@Sleepymike91]

Is it able to get you off the bary?

[@ericunzueta7468]

@@Sleepymike91 wym? They dont dismount you or anything

[@ericunzueta7468]

@@Sleepymike91 lead the xiph to the trap then stun it to close the gate on them ez af i tamed alot doing that

[@TRak598]

​@@Sleepymike91Probably, but it will let go of you eventually. Just have good armor and Lazarus Chowder active instead of relying on a flimsy Scuba Tank for Oxygen. Plus you can stun lock the Xiphactinus with the Baryonyx anyways, so you may not even need to tank anything. I believe that the Baryonyx also can perform the stun by itself, though you need to tell it to immediately stop attacking once the spin is done or it will bite the fish as the spin is in "cooldown" (there is no real cooldown, but the AI is programmed not to spam this attack).

[@atomlurch1]

What happens if you are not in the water again and the timer runs out?

[@TailedBeastKing10]

I call them magikarp cause during its first trailer appearance in evolved it used splash on Savage Acro

[@Plexpara]

Can you do some taming Videos for Soulmask? thx for the Work

[@hammerboycb]

If you have a Rhyniognatha all you have to do is sit on its back and shoot the fish with a crossbow and tranq arrows

[@jadenjones2669]

If this fish does run just make a bigger trap go in with a Dino that can tank and then it can’t torpor run out and you won’t be stressing about some super difficult trap clutch play

[@jfjesus1980]

I have tamed it with a baryonyx. The bary passes through double door, while the fish doesn't, so it's easily trapped.

[@gunnergreer6117]

Good video as always :) I have been debating on getting ASA on my Ps5 Slim, mostly for single player. I was wondering if anyone has tried it, and how it performs on the console, as I played ASE on a PC. Trying to ask here since I mostly get mixed responses from checking forums etc. :D

[@NOOBLETS]

it will be 10fps :P

Is ark still a good game

[@TheHeadlesss]

if you like the entirety of old ark(horrible preformance, bugged maps and etc.) then yes

[@IchbinX]

Thats a very subjective question.

[@NOOBLETS]

Thats a deep question, you get used to the better graphics after a few months, it feels like the same ark to be honest

[@HateEbk]

A few differences, looks better and runs better.

[@NoOneCaresIckyThump]

Depends what platform, and what game mode. Awesome PC and good server; it's good. PS5 SP; 10fps, constantly crashing, falling through map, etc.

[@rlrobbins9151]

Thank you

[@myself8354]

Have they fixed the single player save issue on xbox yet? Last time I played after scorched earth released it was still a thing.

[@sullentamp9140]

They dont run when torpor rises tho, NO TRAP NEEDED

[@TRak598]

Not going go question the trapping... It seems solid. BUT Isn't it better to just let the dolphin take some hits as you go around and place the gate or whatever? You can easily tell the dolphin to follow you out of the trap instead of riding it after the deed is done. And if the dolphin dies... Well, it's just a cheap mount you lost.

[@kubuntukowalski]

i find them stuck on the beach all the time to tame... ahhh ark
