Tips & Strategies

You can use the kapro if you want to tame it in your base
More Diplocaulus Taming & KO Tips
On a 135, 13 crossbow shots DO have a chance of killing it.
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, canβt move the egg and the baby HAVE to STAY IN THE WATER!! Donβt 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!!!
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
The easiest way to tame is to pick it with your arge and put it far from water ποΈββοΈ
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.
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

|_____|. Like that but seal it up. Use and argy or pteranodon to go pic it up
And place it in the trap
If itβs at low health DO NOT TRY TO TAME IT thereβs 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 donβt 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!
Useful to supply oxygen to divers who do not have scuba gear at hand but very weak in battle.
Tame these early game and boost oxygen
