Tip for mobile players:
If you need them for their eggs, which can be used for allosaurus kibble, they can be found in plentiful numbers on the hills surrounding the red obelisk where the olive trees are.
I just tamed it 😂 by feeding tintoberries. Much easy to tame but took 30 min approx🏴☠️✌️ . But yeah no use in attacking with other dino
Dont be next to a cliff, walk in circles to make it hungery faster, have atleast 20 of berrys
The knockback can be a pain so just go prone it won't knock you back and if you slowly go forward there's a point where the diplo continues to try to hit u but you get no knock back even when standing, hope this helps
I would recommend killing this early game it’s defenceless and drops a bunch of prime meat then with that meat go tame like a dire wolf or raptor
Although diplodocus are pretty good tames in my opinion, they are also great for taming carnivores! If you are taming something like a rex, carno or just some creature that likes prime meat, head to the redwoods. Even though the redwoods is dangerous, there are normally lots of diplos there. K!lling diplodocus most of the time give you prime meat! The max amount of prime I have gotten was 6️⃣ I hope this will help you tame carnivores in the future!
How to tame one THE EASY WAY *I think only works for mobile*
Step 1: grab some tranqs *These dudes take a bunch, if you have a OP crossbow, it should only take 1-3 arrows (I reccomend tranq)*
Step 2: knock it out
Step three: Give it kibble/Carrots
And now you wait

Congrats! You tamed one! Now enjoy your new diplo! *btw i reccomend naming it school Bus, can hold around 12 players on one saddle* AMAZING TAME BTW, my level 26 has 1.2k weight, amazing berry and wood farmer* these guys are amazing early game tames!!!
So when you see dippy you might get scared but they can’t actually do damage so they are easy passive tames and great harvesters
Beware the have some serious knockback and u can possibly get killed.
I will forever argue that this is the best first tame. On Aberration, I tamed one before I even made clothes and it saved me from several basilisks, raptors, and ravagers while carrying huge amounts of resources. Taming one is a huge head start the moment you spawn in.
Later died by jumping from green to red zone (intentionally). RIP Shipping Crate.
Okay I’m new to mobile ark cuz I play the console version but I tried to tame this beast and it was actually not that bad cuz it only took 15 minutes then I just tamed another and another to make my army bigger :)
Bring like 100 berries with you to passive tame him (you’ll need like 50, but bring extra berries Incase something happens when you’re trying to tame him)
I usually find them near the beach. Also, while you’re trying to tame him, be careful because he’ll push you in a playful way.
I had no idea what I was up against when I started taking right by the ocean. I jumped at the same time that it pushed me...... I went flying into a swarm of jellyfish.
