Tips & Strategies
You can easily find these guys in the swamps I mainly find them in the swamps near green obelisk they usually get attacked by barys kapros sarcos and boas so sometimes they are at low health.
U can build a wooden box just walls JUST WALLS
โโโ-|
|_____|. Like that but seal it up. Use and argy or pteranodon to go pic it up
And place it in the trap
If itโs at low health DO NOT TRY TO TAME IT thereโs chances it can die straight away wait for it to heal up *which is a pain but worth it*
Feed their preferred kibble **simple kibble** mobile: Archaeopteryx kibble
I recommend prime fish meat that u can easily get by killing saber tooth salmon and collecting it with a metal hatchet
I also recommend prime meat u can get by killing strong Dinos like a paratherium.
U donโt have to use a soothing balm it tames ok /fast-ish
I recommend u have at least 60 Narcotics some bio toxin **just in case**
**bio toxin can be collected by killing jelly fish** and there tamed!
More Diplocaulus Taming & KO Tips
Super easy tame. Knock out with and bow and trans. Feed it raw meat. Boom ๐ฅ TAMED!
This baby don't need a saddle to ride and gives you oxygen while riding and also supplies you with a breath ๐ซ or 2 under water.
โจANNND another thing it is SUPER fast under water ๐ฆ
All these tips here tells you how to tame it... but what they fail to mention is the fact, you have to breed it on land, canโt move the egg and the baby HAVE to STAY IN THE WATER!! Donโt push the baby on land or it WILL EXPLODE!!!! I just watch my baby explode right before my eyes!!! Never have I seen a Dino exposed before!!!

On a 135, 13 crossbow shots DO have a chance of killing it.
They are skittish but not anywhere near faster than humans. They have low torpor and health, so tranq darts are recommended. Tamed like any carnivore, kibble is Archeopteryx. Can be found anywhere in and around the swamps.
Useful to supply oxygen to divers who do not have scuba gear at hand but very weak in battle.
If you ever need to find one, look for the 3 kapros, 2 sarcos, and 4 titanaboa smushed in a circle
On mobile, these CAN be picked up by ptera
The easiest way to tame is to pick it with your arge and put it far from water ๐๏ธโโ๏ธ
They eat kibble differently from other dino.. normal dinos like rex or quetzal eat 1 kibble every 80 food but the diplocalus eats 1 kibble every 120 food.. you need to re-adjust and calculate it again
First of all, this dino is quite useful when it comes to swimming underwater, since it spends itโs own oxygen except for yours and gives you some extra when dismounted. I recommend getting it out of the water first (if it is in water tho) since you know.. Sarcos etc. I lured a dilo to attack it then killed it to knock it out safely. You can also use bolas on these things which is pretty good for a 4 legged dino. And the most important part is that you need to add it weight since its around 150 at lvl approx 10 and you need to like ride it. Also the best thing of it is that it doesnโt require a saddle, I mean you can just ride it after tamed without using anything. Gotta remind their colors are modtly amazing and DONโT LET THE DODODEX PHOTO FOOL YOU THEY ARE SMALLER THAN MOSCHOPS. Hope it helped!
