I have about 5 mate boosted Dilos that are all > lvl100. If you have more than 1 or 2 Dilos I do not recommend having them always following you. Mine are always getting stuck in rocks, trees, etc. and it’s a pain in the ass to have to go and find them. I only bring them with me when I am taming so I have some extra protection. I have nothing to do right now except write a tip for Dilos because I’m taming a carbo atm. Anyways, do yourself a favor and don’t have 5 Dilos getting stuck everywhere.
When I play singleplayer, these babies are one of if not my first tame. Male and female, breeding time to lowest and egg hatching lowest (cheap, I know, but I play for fun) and these babies get you an army in mere hours. Not only that, but they are just plain fun to have around. Tip for breeding, place on turret mode and set wander. Guard and baby factory in one!
Get a pack of 9 diplos and a Raptor to ride, change your name to Chris Pratt and most cave creatures, bats, scorpions, Megalania, dung beetles nothing big mind you and they can farm hide raw meat and chitin like professionals helps when they’re all above Lvl 80 with points pumped into health dmg and speed
These guys make great body guards. I tamed 12 that run with my army of dodos!! The secret to them not eating other creatures you are trying to tame is to call your dilo to stop (with your whistle) make some distance from the creature you are taming. Another tip is just leave your dilo at home base when taming new creatures.
