The Island bosses don’t seem to be capable of targetting the shadowmanes unless a player is riding one… This can very easily be taken advantage of by simply blocking one of the bosses in their path with a group of Shadowmanes while the yutyrannus rider stands outside of the reach distance for the boss itself… Bosses can do almost nothing while the Shadowmanes shred them. Also, would it be a possibility to test the Shadowmanes against the Corrupted Master Controller on Genesis: Part 1? I think the Shadowmane’s smaller size, smaller turning radius, and greater damage reduction is exactly what people need for that fight, as they’ll be able to move around the arenas much easier than rexes (and their giant ass turning radius in tiny arenas) and are able to last much longer against the endless supply of enemies than rexes. Hell, a pack of 5 or so imprinted Shadowmanes are more than capable to taking down a wild giga in seconds… I’m sure they won’t have too many problems against the weaker VR giga variants in the Corrupted Master Controller fight
Ill have a look into the corrupted master controller fight. I have not done that battle yet. Though I guess no harm in trying it with an arm of shadowmanes. I have taken the shadowmanes to Vs Moeder. There natural buffs, armor, health regen and all that just make them game breaking!!
They'll have to be pretty thoroughly bred for anything outside gamma However I will say that they make dealing with the attack drones a breeze and due to their speed and agility its "almost" like having an army of all is with you, also the best tames imo for code key runners as they can easily outrun dinotars and make dropping the keys easy Saying that theyre op is a fucked up reach imo They're a pretty good replacement and its definitely doable
Why is your shadowmaines doing so much damage in each hit??? My shadowmaines have 30 k health and 800-1000% damage but damage per hit is roughly 400 - 700
Oh I probably didn't show the inventory of the yuti. Look what ever you have should work, cause if you are working with some shadowmanes of decent stat's or bred mutations then you shouldn't have a problem.
@@j.yclimbing3155 ascendant is always the way to go, otherwise the highest you are able to obtain. Flooding the bosses with the manes you might not even get attacked when on the yuti unless doing the dragon.
Your shadowmanes clearly was dealing more damage to bosses when compared with what bosses spawned. On servers they take even less due to the armor, my rex which is biting for 2.4k damage was dealing only 1.5 to broodmommy. Also damage reduction debuff does not apply to bosses on our servers. Don't know if it is true for official tho, we play on unofficial unmodded which is just copy of off servers, but who knows what is true in this game) Shadowmanes are cheese dino, as well as deino or megalo, cause bosses target yuti instead of them
All settings were official. So I'm not not sure what you trying to say. Only mods or change of settings were used to make the preparations quick (I.e breeding intervals). Basically the shadowmanes are just stupid strong against the boss and if you decided to breed for mutations they would even be better. You might need to see what server settings you are playing on, might be altered a bit?
@@FriskyRedPanda I'm reffering to the moment in video when shadomane hit dimprph for 500-is damage and than dragon for 1.6k damage As well on brood fight u can see sadowmanes dealing way less damage to the spiders then to the boss itself The only way cats with this melee could do such damage is when ridden and when under double alpha buff, but u was by yourself( This stupid shit happens all the time, when i was testing out some mechanics in singleplayer, for ex, forest titan for some reason does 100k damage or something to king titan in single player, when on server it was something like 20k

strange thing that this alpha broodmother spawnes araneo's of lvl 120. instead of their lvl 600 as they should be on official. this is probably on difficulty 1. Are the monsters on your map like 15 20 25 30 35 and so on to lvl 150? Or do you have actualy lvl 11 14 16's etc and not ever a 120+ dino on your map? What should mean you need to copy and paste a line into youre game file wich override's the official difficulty from 1 to 5! How it's like if you play online you play on difficulty 5 and alway's have 15 20 25 30 to 150 monsters on the map. If you have dino's of random lvl's like 11 16 24 etc then i suggest to do it over again on difficulty 5!!! then try this shit again!!!
I want to be clear. I am unsure if they stack. though 1 Yuty in a boss battle isn't going to matter in the long term. Some one below in the comments said that they don't stack, though hasn't provided any backing evidence. So for the meantime, I think ill continue with the yuty until I know better. I did find this on reddit, someone breaking the shadowmanes down in a lot of detail. www.reddit.com/r/ARK/comments/nstjbb/i_tested_out_the_shadowmane_and_its_just_slighty/ hope this has sort of helped...
there are people who play on the ps4 and are strong enough for bosses would like to have a parr tek engrame if they start a boss fight soon if it is possible write to me
Even today the island bosses on Fjordur have alot of trouble targeting the shadowmanes, the bosses always try and kill the yuty that I ride often times getting stuck.
I'm doing a Shadowmane playthrough of the game now. I have to say, theese guys, even after the Armor nerf, recking the Island bosses. Their sheer dmg nerfing abilities destroys the megapithecus so hard you can't even believe. Seriously, i love theese guys. The Megapithecus comes in, slams the ground, recieves maximum Thornmail debuffs, wich decreases damage output by the affected creature by 10% per stack, this affact bosses yes! So he instantly halves his damage, and then he tries to dmg the Shadowmanes with Pack boost, Mate boost, and 80 Armor. The Alpha Megapithecus dealt around 50-100 dmg to my Shadowmanes who had 10k health. The Broodmother was tricky tho, with her venom spitting abilities she did kill some of my manes, but nothing too hard about that fight, because there is water in her arena! That's right, you can buff your Shadowmanes even further! The Dragon, ohoh. Yea i have to say i did mutate theese guys till I've got 10-10-10 mutations to weight, melee and health, wich gave me a Shadowmane with 71 Weight 71 Melee 69 Health - LoL So thoose guys had each 15k health, and dealt some nasty dmg. The gamma dragon was no joke, with its flame breath ability taking down 20% health of your tames, amor is not something that can protect you againts him. Altho.....in my experience, in singleplayer you can bug his ai out. So you can cheese him. All you need is 1 Yuty, because the Dragon will focus the Yuti, not the Shadowmanes, so what you want is, place the Yuti as far as possible from the Dragon, then block his way with all of your shadowmanes, the Dragon will try to get to your Yuti, but get stuck on your Shadowmanes, and thus you can just kill him without even taking dmg, so dumb XD But if ya wanna do the fight, legit you can ride one of your Shadowmanes to bait out the Dragon's flame breath, agro it by shooting it with a shotgun, then run around, try to lure his fire breath out, if he uses it, send in your army, in this way, you are able to dodge 1-2 fire breaths every time he lands, thus you can make the fight, even without a healing dino. Now I'm prepearing for the Tek Cave, and something just came into my mind, the Female Shadowmane can cloak all creatures around her, if she has mateboost, she can indeed cloak other 19 Shadowmanes if they are closeby, gotta try sneak into the protal from the Tek Cave lol! Thanks for reading, and share your thoughts, and if anything, dude just try this out, get a bunch of Shadowmanes spawned and try them againts the Island bosses!
the bosses are focusing on the player, not the tames, at least if youre in a specific range, if you go to far away he will attack your tames, if youre to close he starts attacking, if you find the sweet spot (thats not hard) you can do every boss even with deinos solo because he just tries to run closer to you and he can attack, just btw, sooo yeah the reason why he didnt loosed all his manes at the alpha dragon is cuz he got accidently in the sweetspot of the dragon...and he started just trying to reach him but stopped attacking soooo...thats not only in singleplayer, ive done stuff like that 100s of times on official servers
@@Gabrielkk_ If you have a decent saddle mate you are good to go. Altho for the Dragon you might wanna make them do more dmg, also grab a Yuty for them to courage roar them, that buffs the dinos resisteance and damage output, also a Daedon, is a must for the Dragon fight. Let's test your army first, go for the gamma broodmother, if you score her with ease and fast, you can test them againts the beta, if you do the same you are good to go for the rest of the bosses. If you struggling on the gamme broodmother, you should tame up more 150 rexes, to get some lucky stat, upgrades, breed them up with your existing ones and level up, 412 dmg on a rex sounds kinda right, but i would aim for 450+ hope it helps man
@@Gabrielkk_ shouldnt bring rex to dragon, the reason is cuz they are carnivore, bring theris and give them cakes, so they can stand the burn dmg easy, the rest of the bosses you can basicly take whatever you want to be honest, easiest way to kill the ape is solo with velo or mana while you stand on cliff and he is stuck under you, not able to deal any damage to you if you do it right
@@FriskyRedPanda yay or do a comparison between the shadow mane and the reaper to see which one kills it the fastest also ps I really don’t like taming shadowmanes reapers are a whole lot easier to tame no offense
@@raydoncarroll6902 I could, though realistically... people are more likely to tame a shasowmane over a reaper. Repears are difficult. Though I understand where you are coming from! Did you see my other video where I took the manes on against moeder?
Will say that I made the video when the shadowmanes came out and when there was lots of little updates I can't confirm if it was before or after the armour update sorry. Though some people have mentioned that they still pack a good punch after the nerf still.
@@FriskyRedPanda yea honestly i dont even get why they felt the need to nerf it. so what if it mightve been a little OP? gen2 and all that it brought with it alone broke the game and its the last bit of stuff the game will have. mine as well just let people have fun and move on.
@honnorgaurd yea I agree. Gen2 really did change the meta and honestly it made the game less fun for me haha I do enjoy the prim stage for most games. I am looking forward to getting into ark 2 and back into rust again.
Ah, damn didn't I mention it in the video? From memory it was either about 10 each side or enough to reach those stat's. I would have to back and watch the video myself to remember as it was awhile ago
@@FriskyRedPanda cool also I know it would take alot of time but if you maxed out their stats with mutations so 255 health and 254 melee plus the 88 level up points to melee and sent them agaisnt all three versions of the king titan it would be a cool video
@@riverquam7951 yea it would be! Would be a bit of work to do! The amount of work in the back ground with all the commands to use to get everything correct. Then actually doing the battle as well. I was happy I had a mate who helped with the other video I did with the shadowmanes vs moeder
@@riverquam7951 oh making a video on that? Yea go for it!! More videos the better. Look ill have a look into it, as I'll have some holidays coming up soon.
Probably have to much but my boss shadows are at 45-50k health and like 3200 melee. I Play on official with official rules. They seem to handle them selves very well in boss fights they barely lose any health but take a bit longer to kill bosses. Was thinking should try 25-30k health and rest all to melee
I believe with the nerf they still are excellent tames! They are still able to achieve an enormous amount of damage and if you breed for mutations... offt they will be strong, I didn't even take the mutations that far in the video either. Really depends on what your goal is with using them, some other tames might be useful, these guys might do the job or a combination of a bit of column a and column b.
@@FriskyRedPanda one thing I’ve just thought of is if it would be better to use the shadowmane roar boost as opposed to the yuty? Have you tested which is better?
@@FrigidOven I had both when I did it. Though you should be fine with out the yuty if you wanted to. I road the yuty to use the roar and direct the shadow manes. Both provide a similar buff but I may need to check up on that info and if there has been any other nerfs/buffs on the mane. Either way if you breed for mutations they will be incredibly strong!
Have you watched the video? I'm sure they will go alright. depends how many you have. is someone riding them ect... they should get it done just a bit slower then what it took me.
It's in the video mate. And I guess how ever many you feel comfortable with using and also how many mutations there are on them. More mutations... possibly less shadowmanes needed
You would need to look at a the patch notes. When gen 2 came out it completely broke the game in almost all aspects. The shadowmanes are still fantastic tames! Are they still better then others for bosses, I'm not to sure. Though I guess it also comes down to preference of what you want, would like to use as well as what's easier to tame and Bree's. Lots of factors here to consider.
@@0nurbis sorry I'm not much help. They are still worthwhile tames and probably up there with theris and rexs. So at the end of the day these would still be good choices.. Personally I think the buffs that the shadowmane get are also pretty amazing!
Let me no how you go mate. Always better of having more then what's needed. Never no when some might not listen, glitch or get stuck and then you can also have some take the brunt of attack and potentially die. Plus don't forget the alpha boosting buff they get to.

@@FriskyRedPanda cool also I know it would take alot of time but if you maxed out their stats with mutations so 255 health and 254 melee plus the 88 level up points to melee and sent them agaisnt all three versions of the king titan it would be a cool video
@@riverquam7951 yea it would be! Would be a bit of work to do! The amount of work in the back ground with all the commands to use to get everything correct.
Then actually doing the battle as well. I was happy I had a mate who helped with the other video I did with the shadowmanes vs moeder
@@FriskyRedPanda I plan on doing it once I get my own pc
@@riverquam7951 oh making a video on that? Yea go for it!!
More videos the better.
Look ill have a look into it, as I'll have some holidays coming up soon.
Um...Shadowmane armor don't go higher than 80, so why is there like a 120+?
Shadow mane armour caps at 124.8 regardless of quality and is affected by levelling them up
124 armor is the old cap for the armor now its 80
Probably have to much but my boss shadows are at 45-50k health and like 3200 melee. I Play on official with official rules. They seem to handle them selves very well in boss fights they barely lose any health but take a bit longer to kill bosses. Was thinking should try 25-30k health and rest all to melee
Give it a go mate! Nothing to lose
@@FriskyRedPanda true just wish it was faster to breed abd imprint so its not to bad if u lose some.
@@Gunz42611 just go big or go home haha make a massive breeding farm and hope it all works out!
@@FriskyRedPanda that's what I'm going to do
30Hp and 30Dmg is more than enough🤣
I think you would struggle with only 30.
I tried them against gen 1 boss gamma solo and almost did it
Was unofficial I had 20k health on em and like almost 600 melee
Might have to check that out myself soon
I'm surprised you didnt manage to do alpha with those stat's though?
Did you have males and females and yuty? Alpha boosts ect?
@@FriskyRedPanda yeah I rode a yuti and had a daedon aswell rest were all shadows
@@saucegod5107 interesting.. ill have to look into it and trail it myself then!
Are they still this good after the nerf?
I believe with the nerf they still are excellent tames! They are still able to achieve an enormous amount of damage and if you breed for mutations... offt they will be strong, I didn't even take the mutations that far in the video either.
Really depends on what your goal is with using them, some other tames might be useful, these guys might do the job or a combination of a bit of column a and column b.
@@FriskyRedPanda Thanks, I think I’ll start breeding then soon.
@@FriskyRedPanda one thing I’ve just thought of is if it would be better to use the shadowmane roar boost as opposed to the yuty? Have you tested which is better?
@@FrigidOven I had both when I did it.
Though you should be fine with out the yuty if you wanted to.
I road the yuty to use the roar and direct the shadow manes. Both provide a similar buff but I may need to check up on that info and if there has been any other nerfs/buffs on the mane.
Either way if you breed for mutations they will be incredibly strong!
@@FriskyRedPandaAlright, thanks for the help mate!
Can shadowmanes Beat the Alpha Dragon with 15k HP and 700 meele ?
Have you watched the video? I'm sure they will go alright. depends how many you have. is someone riding them ect... they should get it done just a bit slower then what it took me.
@@FriskyRedPanda i didnt Hear this but thanks
Did u do it?
I have shadowmanes with the same stats and looking to beat the dragon
@@HNK001 you should be fine. Just take the essentials for yourself if you get hurt
its u?
Yes this is me. Is it you?
@@FriskyRedPanda yeah let's join us after wipe pocalypse
Con cuantos shadowS?
It's in the video mate.
And I guess how ever many you feel comfortable with using and also how many mutations there are on them. More mutations... possibly less shadowmanes needed
is it still true 2022 ?
You would need to look at a the patch notes. When gen 2 came out it completely broke the game in almost all aspects.
The shadowmanes are still fantastic tames! Are they still better then others for bosses, I'm not to sure.
Though I guess it also comes down to preference of what you want, would like to use as well as what's easier to tame and Bree's. Lots of factors here to consider.
@@FriskyRedPanda All right. Thank you sir.
@@0nurbis sorry I'm not much help. They are still worthwhile tames and probably up there with theris and rexs. So at the end of the day these would still be good choices..
Personally I think the buffs that the shadowmane get are also pretty amazing!
Surprised none died to the broodmother
More so the dragon... they are just too strong atm! Have you seen my other video where we take them to vs gen boss moeder?
Beasts
Oh that they are!!!
Rex vs shadowmane
Broodmother: Shadowmane
Megapithecus: Shadowmane
Centre boss fight:Shadowmane
Valgero:Rex
Dragon:Rex
Overseer:Rex
Manticore:Rex
Maybe just 10 of them would be enough
Let me no how you go mate. Always better of having more then what's needed. Never no when some might not listen, glitch or get stuck and then you can also have some take the brunt of attack and potentially die. Plus don't forget the alpha boosting buff they get to.
