Just am fyi for everyone wanting to tame one of these, you can pick the swarms up with a squid and drop them onto the turtle ( when you grab the fish itll look like you've not got them but it works)

I think the reason the swarm dissappeared is that when you tame the turtles with them saberteeth salmon will spawn and slowly start eating away at the swarm
this 100%. Sabertooth salmon spawn in waves and eat the swarm, degrading their health. we tamed a 280(20x taming) using a 110 swarm in about 50 mins or an hour. you just have to constantly protect it from the salmon. the bloodstalker would probably be good at grabbing and killing them.
Qtube Gaming ikr like he’s making it soo much harder than it is and it wasn’t even that bad for him. I have tried so many times to tame one and I can’t get one because saver salmon eat the swarm and then a shark or eel hit the turtle
Qtube Gaming No it’s not because of ghillie (maybe a bit) they just have really small agro range so you have to be super close to them or they’ll stop following
You’re the MAN Syntac! I just want to give a huge THANK YOU! You have helped me so much the last year as I’ve raised my daughter and saved me from hours of boredom. I appreciate so much what you do, and wanted to let you know you’ve inspired me to start my own RUclips channel about my own ark adventures. Thanks for doing what you do and being you!

I’m doing a Genesis series right now. I plan on doing more survival games eventually too. I love to tame, some breeding, but especially building. I like to collect different tames. I’ve kinda got a “gotta catch ‘em all” mentality. Lol
Ahh ok, ahh well, don't know anything on the console editions since I use my PC for my games, thanks for the tips though, will share them if I find anyone that does play console.
Based on what I've seen there are two methods of taming a turtle. You can use the normal trap method with the swarm, but it's tedious. The second alternative is to knock it out with shocking tranq darts and feed it veggie cakes or honey .
Hey Syntac, catching up on the series right now, but in order to tame the turtle efficiently you can't trap it, trapping it causes the swarm to decay on top of needing to look out for sabertooth salmon or rarely Coalecanth that try to eat it, you only need one swarm when you do it without trapping, just rememebr to guard the turtle while it tames.
Syn, the turtle is based off of a mid century myth (or I think it is) where sailors would set fires on the turtles shell. When these unlucky souls would light a fire the turtle would go under water to stop the fire and killing the sailors in the process by drowning them along as their ships that would be tied the the rocks and trees attached and growning on the giant turtles shell.

Blood stalkers are not Surskits- Blood stalkers are not Surskits-Blood stalkers are not Surskits-Blood stalkers are not Surskits- WHY DO THEY LOOK LIKE SURSKIT AAAAAA
You can actually tame a megachelon with 1 swarm of fish, basically do not trap it, the turtle does not eat the fish, the fish just clean the turtle of barnacles or whatever and thats how it gets tamed, it seems like he eats the fish tho because he's trapped and the fish get eaten by salmon and coels that get spawned in the area to eat the swarm, let the turtle swim freerly, bring a swarm to it and let it tame while you defend it from all kinds of stuff!
The coelacanth and saber tooth salmon eat the swarm slowly. I’ve tamed 2 and it only took 1 swarm. Sit on a cliff and grab the fish. When you take out the mushrooms and flowers the bushes on its back disappear.
Just to give a tip, the swarms of fish spawn actual fish that eat then and do way more damage than the actual turtle. If you kill those when they spawn the swarms last about 3.5 times as long
While playing in the ocean biome I have found that the swarms actually come out from below the ocean at night. It’s easier to find them and bring them over to the tame. Not sure if others have found this to be true. I have tamed three high level ones so far using that method. Worth a shot!
I think I had a good method. #1 Find one in a relative safe area and kill everything around it. #2 Whip out an Ichtyosaurus and lure the microbes in. #3 Keep an eye out for Salmon or Coel that want to eat the school of fish. You may not 1 shot a big Salmon luckily they are slow and an Ichtyosaurus has a very low AOE with its puny bite. A few times I was afraid to have hit my turtle, luckily I didn't, also didn't get bothered by anything except the Salmon or Coel trying to eat it since I killed them all before hand.
I accidentally tamed 2 of these by unintentionally leading a swarm over and then swimming out of render and I didnt even know until I saw one of them while swimming around. And they changed ps4 mission timers and now ours are extremely hard if even possible.
The plants on its back are based on the number of rare flowers and rare mushrooms in its inventory. You have to wait for them to produce enough but it takes a LONG time in my experience. Havent tested but putting in rare flowers and mushrooms from another source might work.
call me a "cheater" but I aint finding small schools of fish so im gonna summon them in next to the megachelon. There's enough trouble to tame it so im not finding the tiny schools of fish.
Gmsummon “GiantTurtle_Character_BP_C” 150 Why waste the the time spawning in a swarm to tame it. If you’re gonna cheat you may as well just summon a tamed one at whatever level you want
Syntac I feel your pain spent 4 hours straight trying to tame one of these today and didn't even succeed the turtle and microbe swarm are absurdly slow and the entire process can be completely destroyed so easily
You could save yourself a ton of trouble and attack an ammonite. They give you a spray of something that acts like rare flower and attracts a “microbe swarm”. That’s the turtle’s food. So, just attack the ammonite, the swarm finds you, then lead it away. I named my turtle “Morla the Ancient One” from The Neverending Story.
Syntac, if the turtle isn't trapped, the fish don't respawn, and all ya have to do is kill the threats, it's like a guard mission, and it's a little more interesting than sitting around and then getting more.
The first and ONLY time I have ever tamed one of these things, I had to search for 3 hours to find one above 120 or so. I finally found a 150, which is really low for my server because the difficulty is ramped up super high, but I started taming it anyway. I had to search for another 30 minutes to find a swarm, then when I finally dragged the stupid swarm up to the turtle he wouldn't eat it. I tried everything people were saying online about taming methods, nothing. So then I grabbed another swarm, still nothing, the damn turtle was just swimming in circles ignoring everything. So then I said screw it, I'm gonna go find every damn swarm in the sea and drag them all back to the turtle. 2 hours of dragging swarms back later, the turtle was surrounded by swarms, they were everywhere! It was actually kind of funny to look at but I was so pissed by this point I didn't even care. BUT I finally saw a tiny shred taming progress, it slowly went all the way up to 50 and stopped. I was done, I didn't even want the damn thing anymore. But since I was on my own private server I just spawned in a tamed 150 megachelon. It was the first time I ever cheated to get a tame, totally worth it!
Only one swarm is needed to tame the turtle. Salmon and Coelacanth will spawn in very near the swarm once it is attached to the turtle, and you must kill those fish to keep the swarm health up. The turtle does not attack the swarm. While still no fun solo, it is much less painstaking if you can keep the swarm safe.
Literally as I’m watching this I’m like “time to put this on while I transfer to genesis to tame tek rexes. Oh I don’t have cryopods? Ah I’ll buy them when I swap to genesis” glad I watched this since apparently not anymore lol
Tip: don't trap it as it makes killing the fish eating the swarm harder. Just let it wander around and kill any baddies and any salmon/coel that look like they might be following your turtle
What happened was that a Sabertooth Salmon ate all the Microbes hehehe. You couldn’t see it because your Megachelon was in a tight cage, but when the taming process is active for these bigbois, a Sabertooth Salmon spawns ever so often, and starts eating the Microbes. That is why taming in a cage is more difficult than in open water. I tamed a 145 and a 135 in open water, solo, before the patch and it was easy in open water with a Tek Rifle from the “Hunt Giga” mission in Lunar Biome 😃
Figured out a decently easy way to tame a giant turtle! Tame two decent Basil's, breed them to get an imprinted one. Use imprinted one as your mount for killing everything near by the turtle. Don't use ghillie (I go naked anyway lol) and go find a swarm. If Basil is a little on a fast side, have flippers and you can out swim the swarm. Bring swarm to turtle, let them swim together while you protect the area that the turtle is in. Bam, turtle. You don't need a taming pen for one of these guys and Bloodstalkers are just difficult to use, especially when dealing with eels/jellies. Was able to tame 3 high lvls this way.
Idk if it’s fixed or whatnot but if you take your dinos to the gauntlet missions, when you start it, it’ll turn all your dinos into cryopods and put them in the mission inventory thing. And you get to keep the cryopods even after releasing your dinos. But I did this early on and haven’t tried it since.
"...I feel like that's gonna irritate quite a few people." *says as he walks into his house and past the cryofridge he couldn't have possibly crafted with his new character that's done no bosses, and thus could not open much less access the tek replicator to build one* ...yeah, the cryopods will certainly irritate quite a few people...*stares at his cryofridge*
Hey if you didn't know! You can grind the shell fragments in the grinder and get 50 chitin each fragment lol.. It's absolutely OP and if you kill the turtle close to the surface you can chainsaw them and yeah... Have fun :D
There should be a tek saddle for the Megas that make a little bubble around it under water just on the top so you could like walk around underwater on top it and even make a Perma underwater base.

Cryofridge isn't a boss tekgram
Name it ScaryToothFace, do a tribute to the great Slipg8r
Just Syntac is trying to get the attention of creatures wearing a full set of ghillie 😆
Hey if you didn't know! You can grind the shell fragments in the grinder and get 50 chitin each fragment lol.. It's absolutely OP and if you kill the turtle close to the surface you can chainsaw them and yeah... Have fun :D
Syntac!!!! you can just pick up fish swarm with a tuso and then bring it to the turtle way easier then luring it
Name the turtle Michelangelo for ninja turtles 🐢😆 And btw keep up the good work syntac loving the content 😄
You should name it torterra after the Pokemon that has an island on its back kinda like the megachelon!
0:38 that microraptor looks so cute🦅
In order to let bushes grow on the turtle's back, you need to put quite a few seeds into its inventory and it takes a loooooooooooong time
The pause in your sentence followed by “ok👍” when you said you were looking for a high level mosa made me laugh ngl
Just so you know you getting bullied by a micro raptor was *_VERY_* entertaining
There should be a tek saddle for the Megas that make a little bubble around it under water just on the top so you could like walk around underwater on top it and even make a Perma underwater base.
You could make a complication video of every time you got annoyed while taming. I would definitely find it funny lol 😆😂.
If I'm not mistaken, the tek helmet highlights the fish swarm. Do the big beatdown to easily get one, I got 4 helmets the first time I did it.
Karma as a name. Kurma, in mythology, is a turtle with the world on it's back.
Love you syntac best youtuber
Press F too hug Syntac, for his stress.
Atuum, the giant turtle that carries Terry Pratchetts Discworld through space
The produce rare flowers and mushrooms passively over time as well as grow visual vegetation on its back.
Let’s go!! I’ve been waiting for this since axeman did it
Ark is very rage inducing but the sick thing is we wouldn't want it any other way xD
