What are tips for dilophosaur? Tips and strategies for dilophosaur in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
Walk up punch one twice then feed it a couple steaks and it’s your friend for life. They do get lost if you are in a hurry
When you take one you don't want it mate boosted when you try to knock it
Bro I got a ton of these and if you get 10 of these and level them up to 50 you will be abmeto take down corno.
These guys are surprisingly easy to deal with 1 on 1 early game for me. I say early game as in when you’re still hanging out on the beach. I don't know how helpful this will be because I play on easier settings but...
1) Avoid them until you have cloth armor and/or a spear.
2) If somehow thats hard for you, try running away. Dont let them spit on you, obviously.
3) If you do want to fight them, all you’ve gotta do is keep your eyes on their animations, stay within melee range, and just keep stabbing them until they die. If you avoid the initial attack then they should be easy to kill.
Again, I play on easier settings as a casual player so I don't know how accurate this will be for harder difficulties. I am also assuming the Dilophosuarus are low leveled.
I hope this helps.
If you need a whole lot of em or you want Dilo Army, look for them in the swamp. There are so many of them there and also high leveled.
There's a small place right by where redwoods meet swamp as far East as you can get where literally hundreds of these guys will spawn. I use it to level up tames as you can kill many at once
I have like 10 of these guys leveled up to like 60 each tame them with some meat I used my fist but I would say make sure u got good heath bar bc one spit and they will kill you if ur new, so just work a little on it then get a few more they eat meat so like from a dodo or something easy and get a few more and you can kill trike and more with the 10 I have I bring them out to hunt and add speed and heath and damage and these guys are going to be outstanding for many things. They get kinda of annoying when keeping them in like a pen bc they kinda escape but I just put two thi bc around their pen but they are easy to tame and knock out
Despite how annoying they can be, when I first played vanilla these guys are actually what saved me.
I had a breeding pair tamed along with a moschop’s and I was extremely safe with the 2 following behind, they’re actually very useful beginner tames.
This is for lazy players on how to tame a dilo
Craft some bolas and a club then swing the bolas at the dilo then attack with the club until unconscious then put at least ten pieces of meat
Just walk backwards while punching it or swinging a club, but time them correctly. Or keep a distance and use a slingshot. Make sure you prepare to dodge its spits. It doesn’t eat much food either. You can use these guys as early game bodyguards, poison turrets (if you encumber them in place by placing loads of stones in their inventory) and fodders for a raptor ambush or an artifact cave. They eat meat after tamed.
Spears are useful and so are slingshots
Once a dilo lvl 4.. LEVEL 4. Killed my sarco my other dilo lvl 6 and a parasaur level like 10 or 12.. And the thing is they were all on neutral😠😠😒😒😒😒👎😑
Dilos are really good when they are on YOUR side. I took one hunting with me. He'll go after anything. Then he brings me back the meat and the hides.
Downside is he'll go after anything so don't accidentally punch a Triceratops.
The best thing to use when taming a Dilophosaur is a bola and tranq arrows on a regular bow..
I recommend you use a sling shot to knock them out because you won’t get attacked by the spit because you can hit them from a distance
