Among the various beasts living in the ocean's deep parts in Ark Survival Ascended, Tusoteuthis, or simply Tuso, is a large squid-like creature that are considered highly lethal. Tusoteuthis is a nightmarish creature with long tentacles and a large beak that can easily take down most of the beasts in the game. It can grab some of the biggest tames, drag them towards, and inflict astonishing damage.
Since the beast is quite lethal, taming it can be a challenging process. You must know its location and the proper taming process before heading out to tame this monster. That said, this guide explains everything you need to learn about taming a Tusoteuthis in Ark Survival Ascended.
How to tame an Ark Survival Ascended Tusoteuthis
Location: Ark Survival Ascended Tusoteuthis is a large underwater tame that can be found near the edge of the map. Players must head to the deepest parts of the ocean to find this monster. You can use a solid and fast underwater tame to search for a Tusoteuthis more efficiently. After reaching the edge of the map, you must dive deep inside the sea to look for it.
Taming Process: In Ark Survival Ascended, Tusoteuthis is a passive tame, which means that you don't have to knock it down to tame it. Start by getting a scuba suit and farming an abundance of Black Pearls; you can use an Otter to farm them effectively.
Once you have the pearls in your inventory and have equipped the scuba suit, start heading to the deep parts of the ocean. Remember to take a Mosasaurus with you, as it will prove to be extremely important for taming a Tusoteuthis.
After locating the Tusoteuthis, head towards it while mounted on your tame. The beast will grab your Mosasaurus, dragging it close. At this point, when it is focusing on the Mosasaurus, get off it, go near the beak of the Tusoteuthis, and feed it Black Pearls. Once you do this, the taming bar will start increasing. Repeat this process until the taming bar is complete, and you'll have your very own Tusoteuthis.
Uses of Ark Survival Ascended Tusoteuthis: It is a great battle tame with the ability to grab any monster, pull it close, and crush it, slowly decreasing their health until they're dead. This grab-and-crush method even works on enormous dinosaurs such as Rex and Megalodon. You can also use it to grab other dinos while taming them, eliminating the necessity of traps.
