Very easy tame! Just go by a rock while getting hit, so you don’t go far away, and go under the diplo. Keep feeding it mejoberries, and wala you have a diplo. Keep in mind the little bonks don’t hurt so don’t be afraid by that.

When trying to tame they are a passive tame meaning you don’t knock it out.Also keep in mind when trying to tame they are extremely playful and will try to push you back.

Do not punch it when you are 15min away from finishing a passive tame of a level 140...:/

I feel so bad for them cause in the redwoods (where my base is) I see them fighting terror birds and since they can’t do damage they just slowly die

These are INCREDIBLY useful tames to have in mobile, and here’s why:

In Raids; In mobile, we don’t have cryopods. Due to this, turret soaking becomes a problem, in that it’s difficult and takes time to get all tames you need to soak to the enemy base. These guys are very fast, very easy to tame, and are tanky health-sinks even at low levels; making them the PERFECT soakers in mobile. need more? Go get some balm and mejoberries, and you’ve got your replacement in under 12 minutes.

Used as a construction tool, they’re the same size as a bronto, meaning you can easily build tall structures & tree platform bases using his sheer height. He has a lot of weight as well, meaning if you have an enormous amount of metal walls/pillars/ what have you, he can hold it for you.

Used for transportation, the same is true; he has SO MUCH WEIGHT! And he’s very fast, with 10 seats in his saddle. If you need to move base, he’s your man.

That’s my Ted talk, up for noobs to see.

Name it taxi or uber and charge people to ride on it

Just make sure you aren’t at the edge of a cliff...

Passive tamed a level 12 (+5 levels) with 15 mejoberries. If you can situate yourself under it’s 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.

Wear a ghille suit, they won't attack

I feel really bad for these guys.Sometimes I see them getting killed my raptors,terrorbirds,carnos,ect and everytime i see one getting killed i have that strong urge to help the diplo... C'mon terror birds or raptors mess with something your'e own size i feel bad for them i really do😭

Diplodocus is an all purpose tank and insane knockback. But Ark should add the diplodocuses doing tail whips whilst fighting carnivores.

Can passive tame OR knock it out, for more food though.

Grapple hook on to it. Hold to Reel yourself in, continuously feeding it while staying grappled. Rarely will hit you as it spins trying to reach you. Grapple wont releas because as long as you dont hit it, it wont count as combat

Nah. I remember I was in a high cliff and It threw me off. I died.

This thing Should do a tail whip if hurt that does some damage 👍 This if you think this is a good idea .Also some credit to the people who thought this was a good idea to💵 thanks and have a great day.

I use them as cargo transports! Get two or three in a line and you have a metal carrying convoy. Appoint a Rex or other medium- large Dino and they’re perfectly guarded!

Absolutely wouldn’t trade my diplos for the whole ark. So helpful.

Poor guys just wanna make friends but accidentally yeets them of a cliff

I got an idea if the tamed diplodocus can attack.So it is like an upgrade for the saddle (that might make it cost more) that adds sharp spikes on its head so when it pushes enemies not only the get knockback they will also get hurt which means we can level up the attack of the diplo.Thats just my idea and yes I think the do deserve a tail whip attack cause they really need a defence in the wild man....

Diplo's are super tanky. Everyone doesnt realize this is now the BEST bullet tank in the game. When heath is low, sprint out with no problem. Unlike the bronto, the Diplo is very fast. While passive taming, realize that first feeding you have about 15 minutes until next feeding. Then all quick after that.

Keep these guys away from your bases or there gonna reorganize your hole tame setup
