Taming & KO Tips

How do I tame a diplocaulus? Tips and strategies on taming and knocking out a diplocaulus.
Be careful on dome servers. Torpidity drains quicker than food. Be ready to use narcotics if needed.
How to tame diplocalus
First you need a ptera. Bow or crossbow with trang arrow.
Pick diplocalus with ptera and bring it to a safe place.
Then knock it out
And feed it raw meat
And boom you have a diplocalus
So easy figured I would use it to get pearls for trading has really good movement speed and is basically a rideable scuba gear
Easiest way I’ve found to tame one is to build a box around the center of an obelisk and resurrect it since few to no hostile dinos spawn there to begin with
Sooooo.... No one told me and I haven't seen anything about it but.... THESE MUTHA FUKAS can apparently JUMP through WINDOWS!!! I was in the process of taming one in my taming house/room that has windows so I can shoot stuff without it running out the door. We he didn't need a door cause he had a WINDOW!
The greatest thing is the Chitin this thing can get when swimming around the coast killing trilliobites. A plus is the pearls and oil.
**TO IMPRINT** GET HIM TO FOLLOW YOU WHILE IN THE WATER and do not go on land. A combination of pressing Take Oxygen and (resuming) following in and out of a cryopod allowed for me to imprint him. Idk what triggered it, but it worked! --AK
They ONLY want walks while maturung and will never show it because of their oxygen bar and option.
Ok so I though this was going to be hard af to do it was easy I used a pterodactyl and stalked him till he came out I left to go grab some more food for me and I came back and he was out of the water I fell down and got back up very quickly thank lord bc u wanna die go the the swamp so I was scared for my life that everyone was going to die and I just got back quickly but it worked out my pterodactyl got full Energy to pick up and fly to the safe place (no place is safe) he went out so BOOM I got him we flew and I dropped him bc I was going to fall and he was running away so I shot him 3 times tranq arrow and he was down I was slow bc he can die quickly gave him meat and now I am waiting which is taking forever going to name him Dip and Chips
Use the boala, it works, even if theyre in the water. I got about 7 shot off on it before it broke free and swam a little before passing out
Mainly found in swamps. They don't have much health so kill everything hostile around to ensure its safety, then just put the correct kibble or prime meat and tame it.
That’s the neat thing… You don’t!
Seriously you don’t. They 99/100 get killed by Sarcos, sneks and Pihranas. If you do manage to somehow find one before its killed, well better hope you brought your trusty Assault Rifle or else it will get killed.
Found a lot of them on crystal isles
Use Archaeopteryx Kibble for bonus levels.
Really good for collecting deep sea crates. Just upgrade stamina and health, it's movement makes it faster than all other sea Dino's.
Pro Tip: Put all off your dinos on passive, then find and carry it back to your base. Make sure you have some sort off wall or cage too tame it in.
To knock it out, use a taming pit or have it Graber by 1 of ur flying dinos, and use a bow to knock it out without killing it.
Grab them with your bird and let a tribe member knock it out
Can be grapple hooked and carried to a safe area on PVE
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.
