Hint:Also check the water in the Abberation cave by the terminal. That is where I caught my fish. If you haven't killed any fish there they should be big and easy to catch sins the water is really shallow. 😁
Hey syntac did you check the ceiling of the map above your bed? The hawk may have tried to land in the water after dropping your bag and glitched upwards instead of landing
@@paradoxreyy9556 the bag despawns after 30 mins this isnt live footage its recorded and edited so theres almost no way it hasnt been 30mins since the incident
This happened to me as well when I was using this trap, I believe it has smth to do with me approaching the mane close to his head, at his back-ish rear. The solution was to not use fence gates as the mane can see you when you approach, but rather use walls, you will still be able to feed it through it
Apparently fjordhawk sometimes (rarely) glitch when returning your bag, they can spawn at exactly 50 lat, 50 lon... Might be worth a fly by on your maewing!
Theres a really simple trap that i use all the time, its literally just a 2x2 of stone foundations surrounded by 2 high walls. Lead the shadow mane in with the teleport while grappled above the trap, and it will fall in. You can then feed it through the walls (including elixer)
You can pick fish baskets back up, even if there's a fish next to it. On PS4, just hold triangle to get the options instead of tapping triangle to trap the fish.
Your Shadowmane woke up for the night. They will reset when it becomes night. You have to watch the time. Best time to start the tame is 6am in Asgard. Hope this helps.
The best place I’ve found for fish is the aberration cave with the big purple crystals. There’s always big sabertooth salmon by the boss terminal in the back, and if there isn’t, kill them all, and when you leave the cave and come back there’s a whole new pool of them. Also, the water is so shallow it’s super easy to catch them.
@@bostonarchie3194 yeah i have high breeding rates and i use soul ball mod so just turn them on breeding and in a little while ill get like 200 babies of the dino in the terminal, at least one has the mutation im looking for
Really the hardest part in taming shadowmanes is finding those big fishes, usually takes me a couple of hours just for a single shadowmane. Of course that is if you're into high levels and stats.
You can leave them in a cage and when the spoil timer gets low just put the cage on your hotbar and submerge yourself under water. That refreshes the spoil timer to max.
I used the Dino Fix mod to make the fish breedable. I bred 2 fish that were 1.5 or 1.6 and the baby came out below 1. So, even if you could breed them, you still have to get lucky with the size
Going for 1.4 fish or above is generally good enough for official, for quick taming without losing much taming at all. I tend to just go 1.3, as I can tell the difference between a "small" and "large" 1.3 fish. The elixir helps so much as well, and I tend to catch a surplus of fish each time (and then just use the surplus at some time for a "free" tame).
This was the very first video of yours I saw, just because I love shadowmanes and wanted to see how people tame them. I've watched the series from ep 1 since then and now am back to this episode - you're amazing dude I love your content
I still think you should be able to craft a large fish tank in the fabricator to be able to farm coelacanth and salmon. They could have big round ones like real life in the regular industrial tier and then they could make a tall rectangular one that you can see through the side of in the Tek tier
The fish grind is real. I spent about a month hunting enough fish to tame the 3 max level shadowmanes I found on my map. Just tamed them on sunday though!
Hey Syntac! Use Walls instead of doorframes xD You can feed through the walls and less chance of it seeing you. However, if its like a thing that you prefer to use door frames for the thrill. Love your videos :D
@@Nigolasy so far, would not matter if approaching from front or back if use wall. Since the mane can't see through it haha. But main part that could cause big issue is the breaking of the walls to access the shadowmane to give the elixir 👍. Because you can't give elixir through the wall. So have to make sure to approach by its back for that last one.
@@TheDarrell530 Yeah it was weird lol but it's also ARK. Something always breaks. I just stick with things I can see through now :D More chance of failure but at least I know the it's me
Hey Syntac enjoy your commentary but I got a couple questions for you. 1. Have you ever freeze raised a wyvern any type? 2. What is the easiest way to keep nameless venom from decaying to quickly? Enjoy the videos keep on doing what your doing
Hello Syntac, I've been going through and watching a bunch of your videos and just wanted to say I love your outro music. I like staying all the way to the end just to hear it! Thanks for the great vids and entertainment!
Get ready syntac making shadowmanes mutated in series soon!(everytime syn make a series that had shadowmanes he proceed make a overpowered freaking super saiyan version of it) Anyways they are so fustraiting tames.
To tame a shadowmane you approach from behind (being too close to the head wakes it up) sneaking whilst wearing ghillie, cactus broth can help too but isn't normally needed! They're a little tricky/tedious to tame but are well worth it for how great they are; plus they have such a cool design I love them
For taming speed of 3x and above every fish above 1x is good enough u won't lose any levels if ur using the elixir, if not u'll lose 1level. In terms of fish locations i strongly suggest going for the ferox cave put 5-7 baskets in a row and aggro the salmon and go in a straight line spamming E. The easiest way i found to actually tame them is to make a 2x2 trap with solid walls and a ramp to get the Shadowmane in or u can try to make it tp to u while ur above the trap, once it's in the trap leave the render distance and pray that it will lose aggro since these things are really buggy. With solid walls u don't need ghillie anymore and using the elixir is way more consistent, i had a lot of problems with the trapping method Syntac is using in this video, it took me 3 real days to realize that the Shadowmane was aggroed to the fence foundation and it wouldn't go to sleep and sometimes they escaped the trap, maybe it's just user error but the 2x2 trap with 2high walls had the most consistent results for me. Hopefully this comment helped somebody and save their time and mental heath.
Hey Syntac you can use the Admin dino recover from soulBall mod to find your birb and place him in your inventory. It will work if your hawk was Soulballed. Not sure if you want to do that.
Syntac, you should really use Krakens for the fish and turn everything else off. I specifically use Krakens for the fish breeding. It's so much less of a headache with Shadowmaines.
You made hard work of that, use a 2x2 box with 2 high walls (not doorframes) and a ramp to kite it in or you can drop it in with a quetz, once it's in leave render for a bit so it loses aggro then all you need to do is wait for it to fall asleep and feed it wherever it's head clips through the wall, can wear any armour and don't need bug repellent, very easy tame
With the shadowmane taming, you can't approach it from in front of them where they can see you. I think the trap works so well because when it's sleeping and its head pokes through, the doorframe bugs it out and prevents it from actually seeing you. But if its head goes through the actual doorway, it can, like what happened in the vid. I've done my fair share of shadowmane testing but never used a trap, maybe I should give the Syntac special a whirl.
I’ve tamed like 40 shadowmanes without using a trap idk why it’s people do it literally just treat it like a hyenadon crouch up behind it with gillie feed walk back it it goes back to sleep in like 10 secs and then repeat.
@@antiisolation4 People use traps because shadowmanes attack almost anything which could get them killed before you're done taming them, trapping them ensures they won't wonder off and die trying to fight stuff
My favorite skin with the ghillie is the inflatable rex costume because its supposed to allow you to sneak around dinosaurs, basically a quiet armor set but the skin makes the most noise, thats what gets me.
They came with Ragnarok I believe. They are just a white version of direbear that cannot get any colours from mutations. No other difference besides that. You can tame them in the murder snow on rag too
Kraken's Better Dinos mod allows you to breed sabertooth salmon. The chance of getting a 2.0 fish though is still very low so it takes a lot of time (I use identical rates as you, literally copy pasted your .ini file). You probably don't want to add another mod mid series but maybe another time.
There is a trap that can be used that you don't need to wear ghillie armor or move away from it more than once to tame. It does use more structures tho. The one move away is just to remove the aggro.
Depends on settings i guess. 0.5 works too.. We used mainly 1.2 - 1.3. 15ish % per. Also the easy abbererant cave with the one karkinos has some good fish.
If you want crystal, take a plant harvesting creature into the aberrant cave, where you get the 2 drops from. The plants in there give crystal. I was gathering crystal with my megatherium. You can even gathering with an empty hand.
@@jessebclimbs Dododex says Ravagers reduce crystal weight by 50%. Could tame some up in that cave and have them follow whatever is used to gather to offload the weight. Also according to Dododex, the therizino is one of the best berry/fiber gatherers. If the crystal from those plants acts like one of those drops, it might be the best utility creature on Fjordur.
I’m not sure if I’m missing something but just clear the area and full sprint away after every feed seems to work perfectly fine for me. They won’t aggro for quite a few seconds after feed and crouching while maintaining ~50meters is close enough to feed in time and far enough to crouch walk away when they decide to wander in my direction.I tamed about 10 shadowmanes like this and the only time I got attacked was when it went to sleep when I got distracted and approached too late it woke up on my face. They’re pretty broken too, got myself a batch of imprinted 43/46 manes and they absolutely shredded alpha Broodmother and Alpha monkey,
Syn, if u have trouble finding fish, go to the ferox cave. itll be a little difficult to clear the cave, but the little lake at the middle of the cave has tons of sabertooth salmons. i usually get 1 per every cave clear
Shadowmane sleep times vary. It can be 5 seconds or like a whole minute. Completely random and not affected by traps or anything like that. You just have to wait for them to go back to sleep on their own.
That first 180 was cool lookin. Like dude come on. That amber color and black? So good. Also yes you should not tame the shadowmanes in a trap. It’s just…..idk less risky.
If you net them right after feeding them as they go stealth and leave render distance, come back and they will be sleeping again. Makes taming process go faster instead of waiting around for them to give up looking for you
You can use piranha aswell, much easier to catch, place a fishtrap on the edge of the water, then use your body to lure them to the Traps and body block it so they don't break the traps, so so easy
not sure if this is well known but: if you place a fish basket in your hotbar than the timer will reset every time you enter a body of water deep enough for you to swim in.
My hawk was below the floor when something like that happened and I couldn’t see it until the base was slowly rendering in. Try under the foundations near your bed. Love your videos btw. Thank you for making them.
My hawk always runs away. I usually find him by checking in the smallest nooks and cranny corners of my base. For some reason even with their names turned on and the arrows the Hawks are very sneaky
You woke the 180 up by going to close to the head. When you said it messed you up once, that's because that wakes them up, even with ghillie and sneaking. You have to approach from behind or it will reset the tame. You can walk around from a distance but in the situation you were in, I would just wait for it to get up and go to sleep in a better position. No harm waiting for a few cycles of waking up and sleeping before feeding again, it won't drop for a few minutes. I messed my first one up by taking a risk and approaching towards its upper back (was behind it but its head was still close, rest of the body was in a tree), and I have learned not to risk it, just isn't worth the potential minute saved.
Personally I cactus broth then feed the shadowmane, then launch straight into the air by tek suit with the tek punch and map trick, you can get away with ghillie mask, legs, and boots if you can control your fall safely but can confirm it is effective with just the broth and full tek suit. But I like your method much more than the "play basketball till the mane falls into your trap after bolting at you" method or the multiplayer method of trapping it with hatch frames and doorways and ramps since they dont bolt in PvE. I don't like trapping, it takes away all of the fun and most of the risk. But to do it my way you need to clear the area of creatures and bodies.
Syntac, I have found that regardless of whether they're trapped or not, whether you're ghillie or not, the shadowmanes are very inconsistent on waking up. There seems to be no rhyme or reason and it's exactly why I'll never tame them again after the Gen2 DLC
Use full walls for the trap (the way he did it they could still see!) and don't approach from the front as they'll see you (it woke up for him as he approached too close to the head, you have to stay far away from the head). If a ghillie suit isn't working well enough use cactus broth as well, it'll make you practically unnoticeable
I don't know the stipulations behind transfering dinos in cryos but with soul balls it is 100% doable and easy. I recently went through the ringer of going to each map to find the best fish quality and Lost Island was by far the winner. Abberation was good because most fish are confined to small rivers and all that, but the ammount of high quality fish I found in the same time goes to Lost Island easy. There was never a reason to hunt fish on Lost Island so it may not be well known.
As long as you're using 1.5x and up, then that is the best to use generally. Check on Dododex. Though I'd more so recommend 1.6x and up because 1.5 is just a rounded up number and that actually can be higher, or lower.
Shadowmanes wake up if you approach their head, with or without ghillie. You have to sneak up on them on their flanks or pretty much right along their tail.
@@yukiyakitsunebi9940 ok, the one with the big purple crystals out front. That's the spot I've been using, just not having luck getting over 1.4 in there which is fine with my server settings for taming shadowmanes but I need actual fishing targets.
I love these creatures but I hate taming them

Taming shadowmanes was the closest I've been to frustration crying in a while.

not sure if this is well known but: if you place a fish basket in your hotbar than the timer will reset every time you enter a body of water deep enough for you to swim in.
My hawk was below the floor when something like that happened and I couldn’t see it until the base was slowly rendering in. Try under the foundations near your bed. Love your videos btw. Thank you for making them.
I have been following and loving your channel. Wishing you a lot of health
Question how did you find a wild 180? Isn't the max taxable level 150 if they aren't tek?
Hey Syntac,the first time I went into the aberration cave below your castle base,I found a 2.5x Salmon. That cave can give you some pretty decent fish
I laughed so hard when the shadowmanss and the car now fought you
My hawk always runs away. I usually find him by checking in the smallest nooks and cranny corners of my base. For some reason even with their names turned on and the arrows the Hawks are very sneaky
With that Color you need to name the shadowmane Batman!
You can also net the fish and put the basket over it to catch them when they’re moving around.
You woke the 180 up by going to close to the head. When you said it messed you up once, that's because that wakes them up, even with ghillie and sneaking.
You have to approach from behind or it will reset the tame. You can walk around from a distance but in the situation you were in, I would just wait for it to get up and go to sleep in a better position. No harm waiting for a few cycles of waking up and sleeping before feeding again, it won't drop for a few minutes.
I messed my first one up by taking a risk and approaching towards its upper back (was behind it but its head was still close, rest of the body was in a tree), and I have learned not to risk it, just isn't worth the potential minute saved.
Syntac you should join the monarch series with Raasclark, solo, ark guide… etc
how many fish do you need? do you need more for higher levels?
This map looks so beautiful 😍
Personally I cactus broth then feed the shadowmane, then launch straight into the air by tek suit with the tek punch and map trick, you can get away with ghillie mask, legs, and boots if you can control your fall safely but can confirm it is effective with just the broth and full tek suit. But I like your method much more than the "play basketball till the mane falls into your trap after bolting at you" method or the multiplayer method of trapping it with hatch frames and doorways and ramps since they dont bolt in PvE. I don't like trapping, it takes away all of the fun and most of the risk. But to do it my way you need to clear the area of creatures and bodies.
Syntac, I have found that regardless of whether they're trapped or not, whether you're ghillie or not, the shadowmanes are very inconsistent on waking up. There seems to be no rhyme or reason and it's exactly why I'll never tame them again after the Gen2 DLC
Use full walls for the trap (the way he did it they could still see!) and don't approach from the front as they'll see you (it woke up for him as he approached too close to the head, you have to stay far away from the head). If a ghillie suit isn't working well enough use cactus broth as well, it'll make you practically unnoticeable
Trap works, but I suggest solid stone walls. There's no way for them to see you and you can still feed them. That's my go to
I don't know the stipulations behind transfering dinos in cryos but with soul balls it is 100% doable and easy.
I recently went through the ringer of going to each map to find the best fish quality and Lost Island was by far the winner. Abberation was good because most fish are confined to small rivers and all that, but the ammount of high quality fish I found in the same time goes to Lost Island easy. There was never a reason to hunt fish on Lost Island so it may not be well known.
Guess I should mention I have not played Genisis yet.
You can reset the fish timer if you put them in the last square in the hotbar and stay in water
the ferox bug hasnt been patched I found and tamed 5 level 290 Feroxes recently that came out at level 435
As long as you're using 1.5x and up, then that is the best to use generally. Check on Dododex. Though I'd more so recommend 1.6x and up because 1.5 is just a rounded up number and that actually can be higher, or lower.
Shadowmanes wake up if you approach their head, with or without ghillie. You have to sneak up on them on their flanks or pretty much right along their tail.
love your videos keep up the good work
Good vids love ‘em
Best fish spot is abberation cave. Has 3.0 sizes too.
Which abberation cave?
@@OMC-WILDCAT 57.1, 85.0 near the beach, it's in one of Syntacs earlier video's too. (episode 6?)
@@yukiyakitsunebi9940 ok, the one with the big purple crystals out front. That's the spot I've been using, just not having luck getting over 1.4 in there which is fine with my server settings for taming shadowmanes but I need actual fishing targets.
