Tips & Strategies

you can NOT carry it with an Argy on #mobile!!! literally JUST tried to and it does NOT work.
up this tip so that mobile users won’t waste their time too 🤦🏼♀️
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.
save yourself a headache break into your kibble pocket! this guy with one or 2 kibble and just a small amout of narco berries its done in minutes as his food drains pretty fast but his his tapor drain so much faster so either bring enough tranqs for a gigga or please do yourself a favor and just crack that kibble pocket open for this one
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.
Idk what type of redbull these guys be taking but they wake up as fast as a damn GIGA. I bringed 57 narcs when i tried to tame it and it still woke up in the end and walked away like nothin happened, make sure you bring like 100 narcs when taming it
These guys make really great organic poly farms beyond their hatching ability. Plus, they're my favorite and I'll use them over an incubator any day <3
Here's a decently easy poly farm setup that I use every time :
Set up a 4x4 or 5x5 foundation, two walls high all around it with a door somewhere for you to access the Dimes. On the top of the walls - very top - place just one ring of QUARTER ceilings around the edge and leave the middle open (should be roughly a 3x3 or 4x4 opening, depending on your foundation size).
On the inner opening you've left, place down roofs angled into the center, making a kind of chute. Viola, you've got the 'factory' for your poly farm.
From there tame two to four male Kairuku and as many females as you'd like - I usually do 4 chicks per dude. Here's the tricky part though, you'll need to toss the birds onto the ledge you've made, males directly across from each other (opposite walls) and females spaced around between them (mine is usually one dude, four chicks, one dude, repeat). Once they're in place, toss a hitching post down on each side (4 total), lock them up and start the mating. Don't forget a feeding trough for them. Sometimes the eggs are stupid and don't drop so they rot up top, but if you check on it now and then and toss the eggs down, you should be fine.
Inside the structure on the bottom under the ramped roofs, toss your Dimetrodon(s) and set them to aggressive. Max their melee and toss a few in weight for good measure. Bam - poly farm. They'll massacre the babies as they hatch, collect poly and eat the meat - their natural AC capabilities help keep the poly from spoiling too fast so you have time to clear them out and not lose much if at all. Also a good way to get prime meat since that's mostly what babies drop.
I sometimes have a hitch where the eggs don't go down, I've found removing the ramps completely helps so if you're on a laggy official, I'd just skip the ramp part.
Hope this helps someone out there!
