Taming & KO Tips
How do I tame a kaprosuchus? Tips and strategies on taming and knocking out a kaprosuchus.
This was funny story and I lived to tell it I flyer low with pteranodon because I use my argy a lot and got jumped by one because I flew low kapros do have candy but it’s hard candy if your flying low to swamp your gonna get kidnapped like when Godzilla murdered 3 of his friends by throwing em
if you want one of these, i suggest putting on OP armor and letting it bite you (while you shoot it IN THE HEAD with tranqs). this way it cannot kill you bc u have unlimited hp. shouldn’t take many tranqs. i actually takes thsi thinking it was a sarco... but whatever it’s cool to use anyways.
To tame this thing, just Continuously punch it on the nose when it has grabbed you, then feed it any excess meat you have in your inventory.
P.s. these are awesome for guarding your base from troodons and dilos.
I got a beautiful pink and green one and named him Watermelon. He’s amazing and one of my favorite tames :D
Get a friend or tribe member to catch and hold it with a argy above your base or pen and trank dart it or trank arrows
These can be bola’d on mobile and after that they’re like most carnivores
October 2023 update because I see a lot of tips that are wrong here. Bolas do not affect them (on pc and console) so no they won’t drop you if you bola them and no you can’t bola one to knock it out.
I was in the south zone 2 and I was catching fish then out of the blue a kapro pounced on me I was punching it when I gave it a powerful punch it in the mouth(I was in the mouth )it finally fainted I wanted to kill it but I had fish meat and no pets active.Then I wanted to tame it .I gave it all of my meat and it was tamed.
I was hunting sarco, and out of nowhere this guy(lvl 2) grab me from my argie, we fly prety far. I was in his mouth and I knocked him with fists, feed him and now he is my pet.
I tamed a lvl 150 using flak armor. I purposely let it bite me, then i spammed out with trank darts. With the small amount of dmg they do it can not hurt you if you use flak. And you get to go for a ride!
BOLAS DO WORK ON MOBILE I JUST USED IT WHILE GETTING JUMPED BY FOUR OF THEM
Ez tames.Step one:wait for Kapro to grab you
Step 2:punch it or club to knock out
Step 3:Shove prime and reg meat up its butt
Step 4:name it
Step 5: Get saddle
Step 6: enjoy your sarco with a megalo’s mouth
On mobile they can be bola’d, so bring an Equus and some lassos. Have your equus follow you. Stay to the edge of the swamp in a small building with windows. Wait. When one gets close, bola it, then quickly lasso it and bring it away from the swamp to K.O. (Equus can also be useful for this.). Easy safer method for taming one mid-game.
My personal favorite Dino in the game. But when wild they are like "HOLY CRAP THEY ARE SO OVERPOWERED AND STRONG OMG I NEED ONE IT CAN PROBABLY KILL A GIGA" Once tamed it's like "This this can barely kill a raptor". Their only use is for fun and pulling players off their mount.
To tame simply just throw a bola at him and load him up with tranq arrows. But beware because if you give him the chance he will grab you od whatever your on and kill you so prepare for that.
How to tame on The Lost Island DLC
Step 1 Get a belzebufo (they can be immobilized by bolas)
Step 2 Get tranq ammo (u can shoot off the back of a frog)
Step 3 Dodge the Kaprosuchus’ leap (repeat if required)
Step 4 Knockout, tame, and Saddle the Kaprosuchus
Tame a large dinosaur (I used a yuty, I'm not sure if kapros can knock you off a large mount so be weary of this, but a kapro has yet to knock me off of my yuty and I've tamed 3 of them so far) and tame a dilophosaur to use as bait. Make sure both are set to passive. Once you see a kapro and you're in aggro range, hop off your yuty for a sec then hop back on. The kapro should be aggroed onto you but will attack your mount trying to get to you. Move around a bit and the kapro will eventually change targets to the dilo. Once it's got the dilo in it's jaws, you can get off your yuty and shoot it with tranq darts and bam, you got yourself a new dino
How to tame a Kapro
1. Kill its friends for safety reasons
2. Put a decent distance between you and Mini sarco or get high ground
3. Tranq mini sarco
4. Feed mini sarco
5. If necessary feed narcotics
Also with normal meat the tame thingy Nobby only goes up by like 8%
If you shoot it through a window it will garb you and pull you through the window.they are pain in the asses
Ark mobile:
1. Find one
2.craft a bola and meat.
3 use the bola and punch it till it’s unconscious
4.Feed it meat
5 . Enjoy
