3:01 phillinger never seen that side of him.... and i dont wanna see it it terrifies me to see this just a joke but fr that was ICE COLD

i have memorized phlingers intro at last

Thanks very much Phlinger! I was wondering why I couldn't access the Mantis' inventory once I had it unconscious! Never would have guessed they were a passive tame! And that I'd need such specialized items to do it!

Me: *equips gun on mantis* Other tribes: *confused screaming*

You can also spot the deathworms by setting the selfie camera angled towards the ground, when you can see through the ground mesh. Then you'll be able to see the worms hanging out vertically underground if they're around. So much for immersion but hey... you gotta do what you gotta do!

This seems like a great series, I just came to learn a bit more on my new Mantis but I'm definitely gonna binge this

I usually take a Wyvern when I tame Mantis. They don’t cause aggro on anything out there, especially the Mantis (which saves on repellent), and makes it easy to clear the area. They’re also great to take down any Deathworms that may want to interrupt the tame.

I got some mantis with super high mele. Looking for a super good club bp and I'm going to try and tame a giga with 1.

3 man operations are how we used to do it, one on wyvern for cover, one whistling gasbags and helping kill wild dinos, and one harvesting on the mantis

Moschops when they finally gathered wood:mwah.(that’s what sounds make when they gather)

Thanks for the update PP!! ;)

If you're good at crate gathering on scorched you can get free mantis saddles. I've found about 2 ascendant prints for them and a bunch of mastercraft saddles pre built.

Phlinger Phoo, I found your channel within the last month and I just adore it. You bring good vibes to the game, ya funny, and very knowledgeable. Thank you for making the series! On a more serious note, I've done countless googling and cannot find an answer for it and a couple other things. Rock Drake and Basilisk have gender now- can they be bred? Also, how would I go about scrolling past incompatible dinos that have been uploaded? I've downloaded myself to Aberration and of course you cant take flyers and I knew that going into it, but I didnt realize that I wouldn't be able to scroll past the flyers, rex, etc to get to the spino and other buddies. If you cant get around to an answer, I completely understand! Keep doing good work, my man.

I feel powerful being so early

now you just need to teach her how to throw bolas so she can really knock things out :)

Watch out for Megatherium. A low level Megatherium killed and ate my max tame Mantis the first time harvesting wood with it.

Loving the updated guides m8 keep up the good work

Mantis with a good sword can really defend themselves, that's why I like them as a harvester

they are also effectively the best other than things with a wide array of harvesting levels+ weight reduction

.... Ok well looks like it's time to get me one of these guys.

Megatherium for Deathworm carnage!

Love your ark basics phlinger ♥️

I don't even play ark i just love your vids:)

He says adorable face I say true

i feel like gigantopithecus REALLY needs a tlc so that it would move a little bit more like a human when you are riding it it would prob become one of the best gathering and fighting mounts in the game if you could go in first person and walk like a human also they should make it so that it could be a non dlc mantis by allowing to hold torches in caves and stuff that would make cave running a lot easier so you cna hold 2 weapons at once.

I swear i was subbed already, had to resub.

I love watching ur videos 🤩🤩🤩

“Oh Wrong button.” -Philnger Phoo

In 2023 the Mantis/Argent combo is op for harvesting

Who else thinks mantises should be able to wield rocket launchers? Look out Gigas, there’s a new sheriff in town...

Can you just tame a boy and a girl for me and I'll come get them??? 🤣 Great video! Thanks a bunch.

I feel like a noob asking but how do you take your character from island to extinction or island to scorched earth etc I’d love to know

I've heard that you can use Rino horns as well, but not as good

I love your videos

I like that he had a tek replicator but not bug repellent idc still luv the vids

Phlinger so scorched-earth isnt the only place mantis saddles drop and it's not the most common that would be on valguero I have them coming out of my ears if I was on a server every person who needed a mantis saddle they would have a TEAL mantis saddle. ;-; I have to throw them out and I am thinking of getting a tune of mantis's just for that

450 hours in this is the hardest hitting tame I have because of a 506 sword BP. Giga can't touch this as far as DPS goes

Hey phlinger any new atlas videos I love both ark and atlas and I would eat up abc of atlas too

Great thing mate

I saw a 1 on 1 with a giga with one of these. It did 4K damage get me one of these rn

Allo's are way easier to tame than thyla's and I think do more damage with the sacrifice of climbing obviously

Funfact: their now added to the bosskiller list

It’s mad how gigantopithicus can’t use tools but these things can. Time for an evolution conspiracy theory...

And again Moschops:MWAAAAH

I like potatoes... I SAID I LIKE POTATOES... I ALREADY TOLD YOU, I LIKE POTATOES THATS ENOUGH, IM LEAVING

Early👍 Good work 😁

Morning phlinger

Love ya man

Wait, what's the deal with harvest damage turned on or off? I don't remember seeing anything about that in server settings, what am I missing?

Whats the green circle/line thing? Me and my brother logged on the other day and saw that for the first time? Just curious 🤔

I'm really curious. Could you do a video about tamed leeches. I'm curious if I could have them attack a tame. I can't find anything about tamed leeches

What is the debuff do to you when attacked by a mantis?

It's so stupid I love it

Phlinger... I know your stalling for the Alpha king Titan

How do you get one if you can't get on scorched earth?

love these videos. i just can't get 100% imprinting no matter what I try lol I used to follow one of your videos but I lost it. sigh.

Can you still use titanaboa kibble to tame the thylacoleo

ABC Ark Basic Concepts

tried picking up with a gacha?

Is there anything you can use other than death worm horn? Will mutton work good?

hey can you show us how to transper stuff from the island to schorch earth? pleaseeee

What level is your thylo?

Can it use a gun I it can I will tame a 100000

How people actually get to this point is beyond me..

How bout giga knockouts ?

Fun fact nobody has watched the full video yet

Why was this update 6 GB on Xbox!?

Whoa im early 😂🤣😂

What a stupid taming food. Deathworms, really? Mantis' aren't that OP that they deserve such a food but the real annoyance is how hard these deathworms are to find. Wish you would have covered that in your video more.

I was hoping the male to die after breeding like IRL

hi i am first
