ARK: Survival Evolved & Ascended Companion
Tips & Strategies

These guys are hard to find because they sink into the mesh underwater. I recommend flying over the swamp with an argy looking for any signs of movement or sails. Sometimes they’ll be on the shores of the swamp, too, so check there.
Once you find one, pick it up (if you’re on an argy) and take it to a safer place. Otherwise, just kill any dangers in the area and chase it around with your tranq method of choice. Use their huge turning radius to avoid their bites.
Once tamed, level melee to increase their insulation. Good luck!

you can NOT carry it with an Argy on #mobile!!! literally JUST tried to and it does NOT work.

To the person who said "...mate this with a Baryonix to make a Spino", good one. I had a great chuckle with your tip. Someone make a mod out of this.
For the love of god tame these on double xp and only tame low lvls
You can only use his incubation ability in the day time.
Historically dimetrodons used there large sails to absorb heat and warm them selves up due to them being cold blooded
They should also be much bigger.
I don't care I you me for being a know it all but I just trying to help
Shout out to all the dino nerds who play ark.
They must be able to float in water to lay eggs.
Be prepared to sit and tame for a very long time. They use up a lot of narcotics so you don't have much time to look away from the inventory
If you ever read this before taming one bring LOADS of narcotics or bio toxin it's torpor goes out Very fast, faster than a compys!
Amount of narcs used is not correct, a lot more was required.
Use a quetzal to take it to a safer location. Tranq it with darts and bring an appropriate amount of narcotics. Torpor drops as fast as a Giga
Well I guess dimetrodon is on the same level as giga and mosa, they all require queztel kibble to tame .-.
