How to be able to tame these things
1. If a beginner or don’t know how to shoot, get about 10 narco arrows, if you do only make 1-2.
2. Shoot it.
3. Once knocked out, feed it MEAT
4. Have fun exploring the ocean waters!
Good stuff about it is that you get to get infinity air in water, they are good for getting oil, chitin and pearls, and they can outspeed a megalodon in water!
Bad thing is that they die easily
More Diplocaulus Utility Tips
These guys are the kings of trilobite hunting. Not only do they deal additional damage to them, they're great at collecting chitin, oil, and pearls. Other perks: they don't need a saddle to be ridden while in the water, they provide you with oxygen underwater, and are faster than just about anything while swimming. Super underrated mounts imo.
Please listen to me! I haven't had these guys for long, but I noticed their healing was very low, about 0.1, while on land. When I went into the water with it so it could swim, the healing went up to about 1.2 per second. But the biggest thing is, I force fed it meat to heal, like with all carnivores. If you do this in the water, it heals hundreds with just a few pieces! I am going out to the seas in a bit. Knowing this healing factor will help a lot!
