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, can’t move the egg and the baby HAVE to STAY IN THE WATER!! Don’t 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!!!

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.

Get a shocking dart and it will be out in 1

you want to hit his feet because it gives the most torpor

Better pick up by Argy into a pen before taming.

Useful to supply oxygen to divers who do not have scuba gear at hand but very weak in battle.

I used long rifle and darts worked. The eggs look like eyeball

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.

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

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.

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

If you want to know where to find them I will tell you they live in the swamp

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 ;)

Just use any bird pick it up bring it to your base or into a trap I made a mistake throw DO NOT RELEASE IT NEAR A WATER SOURCE OR DILOPHOSAURUS luckily my pteranodon was able to pick him up after he was tamed I personally love this animal so when the solos and raptor came I was mad by my bird toke out the raptor and saved him, now I keep him in my stone house

Use this to kill trilobites.. it kills and collects in 1 hit collects pearls chitin and oil that way.. quite alot!

Put it in water with you bring up its command wheel to ride. While your riding it it will share oxygen.

I found one it was a male it got attacked by a Carno game crashed lucky I came back picked it up with my Griffin and dropped it in my redwood tree base tamed it cuz I know it was gonna get attacked again by a Carno.

What I would do is I would fly on a pter or argent and I would find a croc chasing something and if it’s a diplocaulus pick it up and put it down somewhere safe.

Very difficult to tame in PVE since you can’t pick it up and it’s every gator’s favorite snack. 9/10 Times you will find them getting eaten. I recommend taking a taming raft to the edges of the swamp near the ocean and using rare flowers to aggro it into your boat. Have a buddy scout with a flyer to find one. They have low health so be careful not to kill it. You might want to force feed to get the health back up after KO’d.
