What are tips for diplocaulus? Tips and strategies for diplocaulus in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
You can always find them in the swamps being attacked by sarco, kapro, boa, and baro..
I happened to go prime meat shopping and scoop him up. Never seen one before. Loved it. Found a mate! Made them mate! Egg sit it in the water... baby Explode. Lmaoooooo never have I ever seen a Dino explode before. Was so piss off... I laughed...went to bed. Lol
Dude I saw my first one today and I've been playing ark for 2 months and I'm level 48 I wanted to tame it but a baryonyx a sarco and a flying lizard killed it I was so sad bro never escaped 1u.p =1 rip for my guy
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
The easiest way to tame is to pick it with your arge and put it far from water 🏋️♂️
This creature is one of the few in which the other swamp dwellers have no allegiance to. I would recommend you to take and argentavis and fly the creature out of the swamp and tame it somewhere safer.
you want to hit his feet because it gives the most torpor
Fantastic utility Dino. You take oxygen from it passively while riding. The oxygen lasts a long time too; this combined with its speed means you can explore anywhere under water. That and it's a chitin machine ;)
These guys will never make a move to attack you, in fact, they are more likely to run away, and are rare due to being a snack for kapros and sacros. You can pick one up with a tame kapro, so you can actually save them.
It gets black pearls from trilobites Pass the word
If your struggling a to find one check the nearby sarcos, kapros and snakes in the swamp to see if they are chasing something. Chances are they’re chasing a diplocaulus. Or a phiomia. Those darn phiomias are always getting chased…
Easiest to find in swamp by standing on the small islands inside. Watch out for Kapro as they'll literally sweep you off your feet <3 Pick up with ANY rideable bird and KO with only a few tranq darts in a safe area. They are fast and will run quickly. Simple kibble is best and very easy to obtain. Can only be ridden while in deep enough water where they are completely submerged. --AK
