ARK: Survival Evolved Taming Calculator
Diplocaulus
ARK's base taming speed on PC, PS4, and Xbox is now doubled, meaning 1× is as fast as what 2× was previously. Dododex has been updated to reflect this. Use the "presets" dropdown for common multipliers.
For full Diplocaulus taming details, get the taming calculator app.

Tips & Strategies from the iOS & Android apps
Get a shocking dart and it will be out in 1
A must have tame for beginners! If you go under water with it you can ride on it and it gives you near infinite oxygen and if you dismount it you can have it burp into you mouth for mor oxygen!
On a 135, 13 crossbow shots DO have a chance of killing it.
All these tips here tells you how to tame it... but what they fail to mention is the fact, you have to breed it on land, can’t move the egg and the baby HAVE to STAY IN THE WATER!! Don’t push the baby on land or it WILL EXPLODE!!!! I just watch my baby explode right before my eyes!!! Never have I seen a Dino exposed before!!!
You can always find them in the swamps being attacked by sarco, kapro, boa, and baro..
you can only ride it in the water and not on land bc it can’t take your weight on land and when u go into water most stuff is lighter
They are skittish but not anywhere near faster than humans. They have low torpor and health, so tranq darts are recommended. Tamed like any carnivore, kibble is Archeopteryx. Can be found anywhere in and around the swamps.
I happened to go prime meat shopping and scoop him up. Never seen one before. Loved it. Found a mate! Made them mate! Egg sit it in the water... baby Explode. Lmaoooooo never have I ever seen a Dino explode before. Was so piss off... I laughed...went to bed. Lol
