I was able to get on the tail and ride around on him feeding him as needed just stay crouched. Also itβs a long time between first feed to second feed after that it was normal. Easy pest.
Passive tamed a level 12 (+5 levels) with 15 mejoberries. If you can situate yourself under itβs legs, specifically between the two front ones, the diplo will continue to try and bump you back but will be unsuccessful. It will do this move over and over again, and drain its stamina and hunger faster, which leads to a faster tame.
How to get a diplo:
Know that it is easiest to passive tame them, which means walking up to them and feeding them
Get a TON of berries, everytime you feed it, it will go up like 3-5%
Have a high speed, high attack flying dino, (high attack in case you "miss click")
HAVE PATIENCE, diplo's are a stubborn tame, they will push you playfully (hence the flying dino)
MAKE SURE there are no carnivores around, if there are carnies around it will attack it there is a chance of it dying, it will get rid of all your hard work, and most importantly, IT MAY DIE (R.I.P. attempted tame #1 + 2 π’)
Plz note I am not an "high level player" that has a giga, I am lvl 50, (51 at the time I wrote this, almost 52) so I am not that experienced, tho I am sorta, I don't know that much about the game
UP IF HELPFUL
I canβt really passive tame it but me and my friend just knocked it out and fed it berries it was the easiest way for us
When passively taking, keep in mind that there is a large gap of time between their first food item and second. Afterwards the food drain proceeds normally
These things are easy to tame, just get TONS of berries (or kibble) and walk right under it, then it cannot sweep you off a cliff. Make sure that there are no carnivores around to kill it. If you do not have some kind of gun and you are low level use a pter
If you want to take it, get a ton of berries and walk under it. There is a spot under it were it keeps attacking you but cannot hit you. If you find this, look straight up and feed. It doesn't move and can't hurt you
When there wild there pretty slow
But when there tamed....
ZOOOOOMMMM
The first time you feed it it goes really slow but after that itβs like every 15 seconds(berries)
When taming or fighting, you can stand under their belly and not be knocked back. It may take a few trys but they do no damage to you anyway.
