How to kill Alpha Leedsichthys?

Ark Survival Ascended Alpha Leedsichthys

Leedsichthys are aquatic dinosaurs, and like most aquatic creatures, the best way to deal with them is to use a mount. Basilosaurus excels at being a good mount and works well to suppress most aquatic dinos, including the Alpha Leedsichthys. The best weapons to use against these creatures are Tek weapons.

You can easily get up close to the Alpha Leedsichthys without worrying about your health because its melee damage is fairly low. Get close, use Tek Weapons, and use some Megladons to deal extra damage for good measure, and you should be able to take down this creature in no time.

Can you tame Alpha Leedsichthys?

Like all other Alpha creatures, Alpha Leedsichthys can not be tamed. They can only be hunted and used for the items they drop, including Fish Meat and Alpha Leedsichthys Blubber.
