Please read these things about Fasola: -Base fasola is as strong as rex (dont know abt higher ones) -Submerge atk dmg depends on drag weight and current hp (from 25% to 70%) -Yes it can submerge giga, it'll do 56000 dmg to wild giga (doesnt work on worms, golems etc) -If u stay in one place it while underground, it'll burrow itself with u, making u invisible u other players -Its as fast or faster than sarco in water -Its bite reduce armore by 2.5%, max stack is 10 -Doesn't take topor dmg (great for manticore boss) -Debri whip atk depends on drag weight too (0.5 to 10sec) yes, it can stop worms from attacking for 10 sec! -Gets movement speed boost while going down hill -Good for travelling just turn off harvesting So pump its stam and hp as it's main dmg is hp/weight based...its more usefull in pvp than pve...and thats the reason its dossire said it's weak against multiple or smaller targets

Reginald dying is just a way of him saying hi at this point

love how he labeled the way points salt and just kept calling it sand.

Fun fact: The irl Fasolasuchus is the largest terrestrial non-dinosaur predator

Name in Pita. Acronym for Pain In The Ass

He'll probably see it, but the streamer vision definitely blocked the slaughter button when he pulled out the hatchet. It was the bottom option.

Call salt, sand one more time .... i dare you, lol.

Automated server restart is a Nitrado setting, it's required once a day at least, I have mine set to 4am local time so there is very rarely any overlap between playtime and server restart. For the rollback, that's also dependent on Nitrado server settings, there's an "autosave interval" or similar verbiage , which I have set to 5 minutes, the smallest window available, so if there are server restarts, it only rolls back 5 minutes max. Also doing a "Admincheat saveworld" when the server restart message pops will let you load back in after restart exactly where you were. Hope this helps! :)

Trying to reassure players that you can more easily tame a Faso with salt/metal instead of rocks is like telling someone that they can get a million dollars faster by saving dollars instead of quarters.

Syntac: I like non conventional taming without the same old knocking out Dino’s, also Syntac: (new tame) is the worse ever! Every single time 😅

Gotta love how they made salt deposits one of the most effective ways of increasing the torpor on a fasolasuchus, and then decided to spawn many of said salt deposits RIGHT next to ruins, one of the few things that will immediately knock you off of a fasolasuchus while you're trying to tame it. Which might have made sense if the salt deposits increased the torpor by A LOT, like 25% or more per deposit, giving it a risk/reward situation that makes sense, but as it is, it just feels mean spirited.

Name it Nibelsnarf. It's a leviathan from Monster hunter that swims through sand you can blast it out the ground with explosives just like the Fasola!

Name it concavenator to create the ultimate confusion 😂😂

A Pro tip to tame fasolasuchus IS TOOOOO pray...

godzilla ahh thumbnail

Pro tip: you can see all the salt or rock deposits on the map, they are the green/brown patches in the dessert , you can look at your map while riding the fasulo. Also if your at a salt deposit with ruins, hit 1 salt or rock node and go to the next deposit.

The concept of the taming method is absolutely awesome, it just needs some serious changes. Most notably its torpor needs to go up WAY faster, and you should have more control over its turning. I haven’t tamed one myself yet (challenged myself to beat The Island before moving to Scorched), but it looks so frustrating.

I think Atreides would be a cool name. Little Dune reference.

Syntac: is in desert full of sand Also syntac: searching for "sand" deposits

I'm so glad you're still uploading awesome content! Always thrilled to see a new video pop up in my sub feed 💜

I love how I knew immediately after the last episode that he was going to HATE Taming these guys, I got a good chuckle the second I saw the title 😂

Yoo I'm finally all caught up with the scorched earth playlist. Been watching them nonstop for the past week. Keep it up brother.

The Fasola does an armor break with its bite, so the more you hit something the more damage you do to it. I think the stacking stops at around a 25% armor break.

I love how the vid ends with Syntac about to tame the fifth Reginald

Took out a 212 imprinted Fuso for a test drive. For the amount of work you need to do, to tame a breeding pair, and raise it? It is beyond not worth it. It's literally just a powerful sand sarco.

I like how there was an option to slaughter when he had the hatchet but just didn't see it lol

Just wanna put this out there syntac i do thank you for all your videos i learned playing ark through your vids and i hope to one day join you on a server keep up the good work

I´ve noticed while taming one that you can indeed control it. So what I´ve found out was that it will go the direction your looking at, but once you hit something like a rock, tree, salt rock, etc... it will loose it senses and just do half a turn and then it will go again to the way your camera is facying, hope this info helps anyone looking to taming the Falo :D.

Check the Automated Tasks option under tools on the left hand side of your Nitrado screen for the server. There might be a task set to occur that if deleted, should stop the Automated Restarts from happening.

Syntac always makes my highs 10x better

Watching you struggle the same way I did with a lvl 115 brought me joy

Thanks for all the hard work Syntac

The burry swirl attack works on wyverns

Could name it Dirty Croc. Lol, love your videos. You have helped me out so much on my ark runs.

Syntac dude how do you create such amazing long videos each day. You’re amazing at RU-vid keep up the work!

you can see under the sand in first person by just staying still for a bit of time and holding a spyglass in your hand. it will burry underground, and normally when it goes fully under it forces you to third person, but when holding a spyglass it keeps you in first person and lets you see under, and also slyglass under wich is useful.

Great video again syntac 😊

The strat we've been using is to have a mate follow with an argy. We ride the faso as far as we can towards a great area near green obelisk, as it loses control the mate with an argy grabs us and flies out of aggro. Then rinse and repeat until we get it to the right area. I cant imagine trying it on official rates or a PVP server.

Great video dude. 😄

watching panic syntac will cease to amaze me. you hovered over the slaughter button twice man! :D

After taming 6-7 of them I've Cole to realize the best tools to use for both resource and ease is the basic grenades. Don't have to be too far and you can knock em out of the ground more safely

Watching Syntac struggle made me feel so much better about my own 😂

I need to go hit that Sand - While literally looking at the word "Salt". Lol Good video!

the fasola does gain damage from melee %, its just not as clear as with other dinos because of its armor shred, and the armor shred applies both on your bite and when the fasola is hit, so damage tests on wild dinos that fight back is difficult. I've got my fasola up to doing 900 damage per bite before any armor shred (with imprint) and it can easily kill deathworms, so its not a weak creature by any means, but it is definitely not worth how hard it is to tame, but once tamed its very fun

I always take a specific path in the desert and it works perfectly. I also use grenades since its waaay easier and resource wise cost way less. Lmao

And there goes another Reginald. At this point, I lost track of how many Reginalds were lost😂

Finally he will experience our pain

Can't wait to pull my hair out trying to tame this thing. It's gonna be "fun"

I haven’t got a lot of fasos but what I can say is there’s a lot of salt rocks at the bottom of the map, decent distance between each one also but if Faso isn’t in the area, you’ll possibly need more explosives to drag them there

Lol Good ol' Agent Travis the home boy!

I love how he kept calling it sand even though he was reading salt 😂

OOH! syntac you should breed them and mutate the fasolasuchus and create colors like godzilla!

There’s a setting you can turn off to make the explorer notes shut up when you close them. I saw axe do it, ask him

*Fasalosuchus submerge attack can sink ANYTHING including wyverns, gigas, and carchars.* The only exceptions are burrowing creatures(like deathworms and purlovia) and bosses. MORE IMPORTANTLY, it does damage BASED ON MAX HEALTH. I've hit gigas for 4k damage in testing before, and it stuns anything halfway submerged so you can stop gigas from attacking for several seconds while your tames kill them. DEATHWORM HUNTING! Your debris whip stops deathworms from attacking you, but they don't run away! This lets you hit them for several seconds without punishment, and fasas make AMAZING deathworm hunters! So far none of my other tames have done as well, a single high level fasa can kill 6-7 deathworms in one run before it needs to heal(my fasa has 15k health and 380% melee for reference). SWIMMING! For some reason, fasalosuchus is an amazing water tame. It swims faster than sarcos and attacks twice as fast underwater! If you transfer your fasa to other maps, it might be a great tame to clear out sea caves with and hunt alphas! ARMOR PENATRATION! Fasa attacks put a stacking debuff on enemies that makes them take more damage from all sources! It also reduces/removes armor, making creatures with natural damage reduction much weaker against fasas that will almost always deal full damage! Only bosses ignore the armor penetration. Overall, they're great utility tames and do decently at every job. They also get lots of health per level and regenerate stamina while burrowed, even during sandstorms. If you burrow during a sandstorm, your fasa will gain stamina like normal making them great traveling mounts during bad weather! I just wish they had less torpor, the knockout taking so long totally ruins taming them.

I tamed one of these today, and it’s excruciating!

U suffered soo much for that, syntac is regreting his decisions😂

The out of context i heard while.u were learning how to tame it....priceless I only listen to urvids sometimes when I'm working

The way I tamed mine was I just had my map open and went from salt node group to group. Took me nearly 1/2 an hour, I found it quite a fun challenge

you need to have your spyglass out while on the back and then K cam for the worm finding to work

Whenever he's riding the Faso, I run it in 2x speed. It's so funny hearing him talk and laugh with a sped up voice 😂

Oh man I knew this was gonna be a bad at the end of the last episode 😂

Yeah there’s really not much sand in the desert. Only a few big sand crystals, but rolling hills of salt as far as the eye can see

Can’t wait to see mutations on these easily one of my favorite creatures in ark

6:31 that is the best part about Ark!

Name suggestion for it: Tremor(s) I can't not think of graboids and that franchise when I see a pain in the ass sand monster

Oh this the earliest I've ever been

Knocking out a sand gator through blunt force trauma and concussions is amazing, almost as great as feeding beer to the Ark Additions elephants

The damage does go up with melee, but the sandstorm damage is based on drag weight

Oh Syntac 😂 this was stressful just watching you. Ya know, idk about this dang thing.

Fourth. Going into surgery before I get to finish it :(

My best method in taming is to follow along the outskirts of the actual scorched earth part, that 9/10 has a mountain nearby there are tons of stones that trickles it up steadily and an occasional metal node as you get closer to the mountains that brings his torpidity up by A lot more than salt and bones. the only issue that I have is this method it him constantly getting distracted by other creatures, but the higher lvls can handle most things with ease.

You could name her Mohs (or Mohlly). the Mohs scale measures hardness of rock and minerals!

Remind me to get all of the notes before I start taming a Fasolasuchus 😅

Mat and then pat on the screen at one point and made me think of that matpat

"Reginald is dead." Classic reginald

Acquiesce would be cool. Its a fun word and I feel like it describes the taming process

Not sure if anyone's mentioned but the submerge abilities damage scales with the current hp of the creature you submerge. I submerged a creature on my server that had 500k health and it did 238k damage. These are vanilla rates.

Btw Syntac, the grind for the Fasola MAY be worth it. Fasolas do NOT take any torpor damage from anything (to my knowledge) including the Manticore. These things are amazing against it, so instead of using Rexes for the fight, maybe use Fasolas? I have the Acro mod, so I'm going to use those for the first time, then I'll try Fasolas. Apparently thorny dragons are capable of killing the Manticore, so that might say something about the difficulty of the Manticore xD

There is finally a use for grenades in the game lol. Don't have to be quite as close a compared to c4 and you can whistle follow your flyer during the timer.

Servers I play on do a daily server restart at a scheduled time so at least you know when it will happen. Still can have up to a 30 min roll back but better than the “surprise” restarts. When we don’t forget we usually just fart around base close to server restart.

They are really good for collecting flint

Good thing you marked all the "sand" locations, sand can be hard to find in the desert 😂

can try to do a saveworld command right before a server reset and hope it will help to prevent a server roll back.. I also agree that most passive taming methods just end up to be frustrating buggy mess.

Got yourself a cougar 😂

Numbskull sounds like a great name for it 😂

You should name it Himani because of the white pattern is like a snow leopard pattern

When he is calling salt deposits, sand deposits XD rip Reginald, poor thing is becomming a meme at this point :'D

Fasolasuchus ability i think does % dmg so the more hp they have the more damage it does and Undertaker would be a pretty cool name

once you hit something with them it will go its own way for a couple seconds until you get control back. just make sure to stay away from any solid obstacle it cant destroy then you are good. it can take a long while but if you know what you are doing its not that hard :) and yes it can also glitch out of the ground sometimes like you had 😅

Oh my God the server restart happened to me in the middle of my 2.5 hour fasolasuchus tame too. I was soooo mad lol I was mad already, then that was just the icing on the cake

Im screaming SAAAAAALT here... lool

Henry the Headstrong

The name for the fasolasuchus could be Juggernaut, since the way to knock it out is ramming into stuff lol

Wait so if you need a name judging by the colours maybe zilla sesne it doesnt quite look like godzilla but has mord upright spike's (love the content👌)

Thats a nice fasola syntac

"Bowser" name suggestion😂

Perfect name understeer 😂😂

When you are in sand and don’t do anything for about 2-3 second, it will turn into sand mount, and take out your spyglass on first person mode, you will be able to see under :) submerge damage is based on opponent’s hp. Each bite or enemies melee attack to fasola will decrease their armor by 2.5% which stacks up to 10(25%)

Idk who was more stressed me or Syntac 😂
