What is a dilophosaur used for? dilophosaur battling strategies in ARK: Survival Evolved.
Dilos on wander are great for patrolling a yard and dealing with wild critters that break in, like argies or snakes, while a few set to follow will give low-level survivors a chance to run to safety while they keep attacking critters busy.
Get their hp up to 1k and put the rest of their levels into melee and they can even give raptors and sarcos a hard time, while few extra levels into carry weight will allow your security team to also harvest some extra meat and hide for you.

Taming a huge pack of these guys is a very good way to be able to take on bigger dinosaurs and is almost essential in singleplayer. An army of these guys can be a good replacement for people. Pair them with some other tames like the scorpion or a swarm of dimos (another overlooked but great tame) and you can dominate the whole island
Dilo are one of the best dinos to tame very early game, they are actually good at assisting you when hunting. They may not do so much damage but their ability to spit slows down your opponent which is very useful especially against something small or fast or even both like Dimorphodon or Raptors. Another thing, when tamed all you need to focus on is leveling up health and damage, leveling up stamina is a waste since you can't ride them and when they're following you, they don't use stamina. Weight is also another waste on leveling since they can't carry much in the first place.
