What are tips for dimetrodon? Tips and strategies for dimetrodon in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
Weird how these don’t auto aggro and when you hit them they don’t aggro they just run away
1 do not have any tames when taming including: sarco, or any thing else other than dimetodon.
2 prime raw not normal raw. Raw is a waste of time but still good taming material.
kibble was worth .9% of taming progress on a lvl 60 dimetrodon on an official prim+ xbox server, let people know before they waste their time!!
On primitive + : use a few narco traps in a corridor and then arrows. Their torpor drops fast and their health is low. One of the hardest tame on P+. Be ready to kill a few.
First i use slingshot club and wooden fountain fence to a wild male dimetrodon whin he's unconscious feed him some raw meat and soothing balm and huzzah i name him gordon to the base
Can’t pick them up with an Arge in Mobile :(
As mentioned below, in Mobile you cannot pick up the Dimetrodon with an Argi. You’ll need a Quetzel, or maayyybbbbbeee a Tapajara, idk yet I am still working on it.
Last time I tried taming one of these guys a couple of them ganged up on me and tried biting me to shreds
WHY? I thought they were PASSIVE!?
They have really fast decreasing torpor and not alone of health however I almost lost 2 rock drake eggs but I tamed a dimetrodon and it helped me loads
Dodo said 600 narcotics and 1.5 hours to tame. Took 1hour 45min and 1150 narcotics. Thanks dodo, glad I always carry extra for just in case.
Hey people have you ever thought it was a waist of materials makeing torches or air vent things to hatch an egg well you don’t need to anymore because if you put some of these next to an egg it will start incubating so no more useing up you materials just tame a few of these and they will get the job done. I hope this helps you not use materials on torches and air vent things and see you in the next tip ;) - A.L.N.A
If you want to tame high level AC, Mutton or Kibble are pretty much needed, following tons of Bio Toxin, it worth the AC purchase cost if you find one with high melee start anyway...
