The dimetrodon is one of the few passive swamp creatures.

Easy way to tame (Works if you have Argentavis or Quetzal):

Step 1: Go to the swamp with your Argentavis or Quetzal and search the area for Dimetrodon. Once one is found, pick it up and carry it somewhere safe (recommended: The Dead Volcano, or your base. Just make sure everyone is set to passive).

Step 2: Let it wander around for a while. Knock it out every so often to check on its hunger. If it is not hungry upon knockout, let it wake up and heal for a while. Repeat until it is completely starving.

Step 3: Once one of your checkups on the Dimetrodon via knockout reveals that it is completely starving, grab whatever meat you have as fast as you can (prime meat if its a high level). The starving status causes the Dimetrodon, as well as all other creatures tamed via knockout, to constantly eat every second until they are either tamed or not hungry anymore.

I did all of this myself at the Dead Volcano, which it arrived there via my male Quetzal, Flappy. Argentavis can also pick them up for delivery. Hopefully this helps.

Is this better incubate than otter? Up if yes.

I have found many of them inland on the lava island. 5-9 present at any point in time. Coord: 30,65 approx.

It is very useful as an air conditioner to hatch eggs but the better the Dino the more you will need

I found one at my swamp base I’m only level 40 I don’t have the air conditioner so he worked as a air conditioner yes a animal air conditioner.

Guys I really need one bc I have a spino and 2 argy ebbs and a lot more like dimorph and baryonyx and raptor pls I really need one hope I get

To tame this with one cooked fish meat your taming speed has to be at *drumroll* 116! Not bad

Previous Mosasaur

These creatures needs alot of narcotics. When knocked out, wait for the torpor to drop. Then force feed narc (1 narc = 40 torpor). The torpor meter will slowly rise and give you time to do other things.

Also remember they need natural water in order to lay eggs. They cannot drown after a patch i belive

Can be used as a Airconditioner

Buff damage Stat to increase

These serve as a damn living air conditioner when tamed. Also in mobile ya can’t just grab ‘em with an argy for some reason anymore.

Use narcoberries, NOT narcotic. Torpor loss is paused while it's being gained, and berries cause torpor to rise much slower. It's the difference of being able to walk away for 10 minutes vs 2 minutes.

Ik people have said this but you can’t pick up dimetrodon on mobile unlike what Dododex says it is really annoying

When timing keep an eye on it.

Mobile version sucks -_-

You can't carry em with an argy

I tried carrying one with my argy and it didn’t work, I have to walk it so far, is this a glitch?

These things can kill jellyfish, don't get stunned, and collect biotoxin like a boss.

People say they arent nearly as good as air cons but if you have the right stats they can be much better. I believe on average you would need 8-12 air cons to hatch a wyvern egg, but my 4 dimetrodons with 350-400% melee can easily incubate wyvern eggs with no problem. I dont like working with electricity so its a nice alternative. (Plus theyre portable!) melee damage affects how well they act as air cons, so make sure you pump melee damage into them if you wish to incubate eggs. Theyre hard to tame but are worth it imo

ON MOBILE: They can't be carried by an argentavis

Fast, Effective and Easy Taming Method (Starve Taming)-

1. Place a sleeping bag near your desired dimetrodon

2.Wait till night to sleep in it, clear out the area in the meanwhile (keep the prime meat you get, you’ll need it for later! Try storing it in a tame)

3. Once it’s morning, tranq out the dimetrodon and feed prime meat, no need for kibble this way because the dimetrodon will be so hungry it’ll tame in seconds!

Hope this helped! Spares you time and resources on getting a quetzal egg and making the kibble.
