What are tips for diplodocus? Tips and strategies for diplodocus in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
Get a lot of berries, the kind they like. Put it on your hot bar and tap it when it is hungry. This is the most annoying passive tame I’ve ever seen (in my opinion). It will ‘playfully’ push you. When it does that, you go back like, 80 yards from it. Warning: DO NOT TRY TO TAME NEAR CLIFFS. There is a big chance it might push you off. Do not tame near carnivores, as if they attack it, all progress is lost and it might die. It is surprisingly weak for such a big Dino. It has much health though. Every time you feed it, it will add 2% to taming (in my experience).
If ya want to tame one of thses guys passively than after you feed them berries let them (play with you) like let them keep hitting you and knocking you back then they will want more food.
Easiest way to tame a diplodocus is to find a diplodocus 🦕 with a child now tame a raptor or any other carnivore they should at least be 3 carnivore now attack the mommy diplodocus keep an eye on the baby diplodocus when the bigger one does go near the small one and tame it
There’s a sweet spot slightly between but kind of behind the front legs where it won’t reposition itself nor push you away. Once you find that spot you don’t need to move at all, making taming these guys a little easier.
All you have to do is go under it then feed berries then wait for a long time but make sure you are moving with it cuz then it will fling you like a piece of dust.
Take crouch go neer him and feed it what he need.
Just get under them (easier on a hill) and just feed them mejos for a while I suggest farming them with a parasaur or trike cause you’ll need a lot
It's Passive tamed and it can't damage because creators made it playful it can only damage when you ride it with saddle
If you stand under diplos they can’t hit you, you need lots of time and hundreds of berries.
Since these big teddy bears can't really defend themselves tame a couple of little birds mount the diplo whistle for group follow. Then turn thier group whistles off (so they don't leave) and put the follow (so the don't get in the way) and attack range better at high. They will then stay with the diplo at all times protecting it.
Why is it that these seem to always spawn by a cliff?
Mobile player here! May differ for others.
Push yourself between two rocks and get it to come over, they are incredibly friendly and will happily nuzzle you like mad. Also they’re basically just big babies, protect them at all costs.
They can’t have their damage leveled after a certain point but make wonderful tanks (aka very useful for metal runs if you need something to carry it all and don’t have a bronto.) bring another tame to follow it (done by whistling for them while on the tames back.) and let it protect them! I use my spino, Butch.
