•ULTIMATE DILO GUIDE

TAME:

•10-20 Raw meat.

•One slingshot.

•Only use bat if you have at least 120 health.

•Bola if you have access to it. (Not necessary, recommended.)

You will usually find these in packs, try to kill all the dilos nearby first, they will defend the one you try to tame.

Attack it by it's back, never stay nearby the head, they'll split poison at your face if you do.

(In case you are using a slingshot, headshot it, but try to dodge it's split, when it opens it's mouth and frills, it's about to split.)

(Use bola if you have it. Be aware that it can still split when trapped.)

Once knocked out, open the inventory. Put about 16 raw meat.

(Some of the raw meat isn't for taming, it's for feed.)

There, you have your own dilo.

UTILITIES:

Can hunt down stuff like dodos or compy packs for you. Be aware that it has fairly low damage and health, needs a pack to hunt bigger, agressive things.

CAN ALSO HUNT:

•Lystosaurus

• Moschops (In pack)

•Parasaurs (In pack)

•Pachys (In 5+ dilo packs)

Pros:

•High speed, can blind enemy.

Can hunt things like dodo •quickly.

•Quick taming.

•Quick breeding.

Cons:

•Will likely die to most dinos if not in pack.

•Fairly low health and damage.

•Can't mount.

BREEDING:

Build storage boxes around them, if you don't have acess to storage boxes yet build a one by one thatch house. (Roof not necessary but recommended.)

Enable wandering.

HATCHING:

Needs 3 campfires, putting torch on egg recommend.

Hatches fairly quick, put about 30 meat on baby's inventory.

Make sure to imprint.

PROTECTING YOUR DINO:

Make sure you have a base with spike walls around your base as soon as possible, A dilo can be killed by literally anything on passive mode. If you can't put them inside your thatch base.

Put 5-10 meat on each dilo's inventory, make sure to replace it every 2-4 days.

Fists can easily knock a Dilo out. There spit can help you hunt or defend you from other survivors. In groups of 3 or more they are dangerous.

They 're so OP, in early -mid, really

I was still below LV 10, when I've encountered a spinosaure (really)

But I had a pack of 4 good level dilos, so they killed the big dude, without any lost on my side...

And if you'd breed them to higher LV, then can solo everything, for sure

Let's say a billion LV, Vs a LV1 titanosaur should be entertaining 😅😅

Put a bunch of stone on them and put them on your roof on aggressive and you have a spit turret

I have an army of 12 of these babies. It’s epic. Highly recommend

A good first defensive game. Their acid attack slows all dinosaurs and can be a lifesaver early to mid game.

Alone not very affective but I once had a group of 7 and they took out a carno with easy as well as other aggressive creatures

If anyones wondering how to get baby dilos put them on enabled wandering when you stuff then in a pen then wait and get the eggs put them by a campfire and wait then take care of it till adulthood

Hope this was helpful

How to build A Dilophosaur Spit turret/ Sentinel Tower

What you will need: Rocks/ heavy surplus material, meat, Wooden structures or higher, Wood ramp, wood ladder, one dilophosaur

1. Put down a foundation for your tower

OR

Begin building on a completed structure

2. Set up your first floor and build the walls and roof of the second(you will want a second foundation for the first option)

3. Set up your ladders

4. Place down your ramp

5. Set your dilo to its lowest following range and set it to follow you

6. Lead it up onto the second floor

7. Destroy and replace the ramp to the tower

8. Lead the dilo onto the tower

9. Tell the dilo to stop

10. Put the heavy material into its inventory with a mixture of meat to keep its health up

11. Change its behavior to agressive to medium/high range

You now have a tower that can spit poison or alert you of creatures getting close. If you have guard creatures, like pachyderms or some reptiles, they will be alerted and eliminate the threat.

Up this if you found this a helpful tutorial

These have some properties that made them great as a first tame:

1. They are EVERYWHERE - you can get yourself a couple of these and no dino will be a match to you, except Theri, that thing will wreck all of you, recommend getting at least 10 to take it out.

2. They are easy to tame - if yours are being slaughtered, they can at least buy you time to run away and you can recruit some new ones right away.

3. They spit blinding poison - I think the poison affect all dino, even the big one, so not only it will weaken your enemy and make it more vulnerable, but in case they are not winning, you still have time to run away.

Got an army of about 10. They are pretty good early game but now I’m just breeding them to defend my base.

These are weak alone but get an army of them and they’re invincible. I have 11 of this little guys

They make good "ground turrets".

Tame a decent trike/parasaur and lvl health and put it on passive, then aquire several dilos set to agressive, then set them to follow thw trike/parasaur. Tada, a few of these and your base is pretty safe from snaller predators such as raptors, sarcos, compys, troodons, and if they are high enough lvl terror birds and kapros as well. Titanoboasa are still dangerous because of the narcotic venom

This is a very over looked tame. I have a pack of 10 and they were all tamed at 150s. Set them all on a lvl 105 rex to actually get them killed to decrease my tame cap. And they murdered the rex lol

If your in early game and you barely have any hide I suggest getting 4-8 if you have enough tame slots. You should never have them alone because together they can kill many things (especially 8 of them). Also if they are alone anything can kill them

You should be able to ride these guy think of how fun that would be

It's better to tame a male and female to produce eggs in order to make kibble for a dodicurus or an ankylo. Those are good for collecting stone or flint and metal.

You can't ride them, you can't use ANY acccessories on them, they can't carry much, and they don't deal much damage. I wish ark could give them a meatpack or something, like how dodos have decimation bit and gathering bit.
