You probably think these guys are useless and not worth it but if you tame a few low levels they can be SO useful, as they can incubate eggs. Using them on SE to incubate eggs is really handy because it means you don't have to have a generator that will need to be repaired from time to time.
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
There is an island full of them on ranarok in SW tropics the island is literally dimetrodons, jerboas, and pelagornis
Can't be carried by an argy in mobile I lost my argy named aorus in the swamp to test that 😭
Very easy to tame keep distance and shoot , bring lots of narcotics and bio toxin torpor drains fast
Works as an A/C Unit providing hypo and hyper insulation, and is potentially more effective then an A/C unit. Insulation provided is based on melee damage. From testing it seems to be that insulation is equivalent to melee stat. So an imprinted dimetrodon with 400% melee provides 400 insulation equivalent to 4 A/C units.
You can find these guys in the swamp area by redwoods, desert near the water and in the swamp heading to the floating islands! I incubated one wyvern egg with two of these guys. I put on my level points into melee.
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
In fjordur you can find them in the jungle swamp realm
Kill something (Moschops and Phiomia are good because they provide a lot of meat) before shooting it, then lead the Dimetrodon to the corpse as you tranq it. Around halfway through the process or when its low on health stand near the corpse and let the Dimetrodon attack you. It will consume the corpse as it attacks you, and regain health. This way there will be no risk of killing it. You can also use a Snow Owl to heal it if you have one.
If you are on mobile
Trap him in a small trap
Sleep!!
Knock him out
Use soothing balm!
Feed him
You tamed it easly and fast
on ark mobile you can not grab it with arg just qutetz.
here’s the plan:
(take a make and a female, they act as air conditioners and can breed infinitely. their AC property means they will hatch their own eggs as well.)
step 1. find a public server
step 2. join a tribe for protection
step 3. tame a male and female dimetrodon
step 4. enable breeding and leave the server
step 5. come back months later to a ton of dimetrodons and a broken laggy server
dimetrodon is a server bomb
TOPTIP:
These things have bad melee at any level. Their incubation effectiveness is tied to melee strength..
But if all levels of these have bad melee, than the only difference between a lvl 5 and a lvl 95 is the amount of narcotics you are going to waist and time you will spend taming the lvl 95.
Moral of the story: seek out a lvl 1(best case scenario).. DO NOT waist 1 second of your life on a high level tame with this spawn of satan.
