Taming & KO Tips

How do I tame a diplocaulus? Tips and strategies on taming and knocking out a diplocaulus.
The easiest way to tame is to pick it with your arge and put it far from water ποΈββοΈ
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!!!
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!

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.
So apparently this Dino in baby stages is like a tadpole and has to remain in water. I podded two juveniles and threw them out on land and they both just disappeared.
Keep them in water the full duration or it will disappear

Useful to supply oxygen to divers who do not have scuba gear at hand but very weak in battle.
you want to hit his feet because it gives the most torpor
I used long rifle and darts worked. The eggs look like eyeball
The easiest way to tame make a trap at your base then pick up with argue and put it in the trap
For starter if you want this thing the best way I got one is I killed one and took it revival thing went to the green crystal thing revive it Trang it with three Trang arrows and when it was knock use a smoothing pot and gave it 10 cooked meat and there you have it a new dino and best part it give you oxygen when you ride it or swim with it you donβt need a saddle just make sure itβs in the water
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
Get a shocking dart and it will be out in 1
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.
Better pick up by Argy into a pen before taming.
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 ;)
I do believe you can use cooked prime jerky on these guys in mobile. You get like a 30 to 40 percent taming witht them if your short on raw prime meat. Up this if it works<3.
Diplocaulus are constantly picked on by swamp carnivores, even the sluggish Dilos, add on the fact that they are so painfully slow and it results in it constantly kicking the bucket.
For taming either take some strong tames to kill all swamp carnivores or, and this is worth noting, use a pteranodon/Tapejara to hook it out the swamp for easy pen taming

Use this to kill trilobites.. it kills and collects in 1 hit collects pearls chitin and oil that way.. quite alot!
If you want to know where to find them I will tell you they live in the swamp
