Tips & Strategies
I’m planing on taming one (👍if it’s worth it, 👎if it’s not)
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....
Don't tame them near a beach they might start whacking you into the ocean I learnt that the hard way
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
Today I learned they push you when there's hostile dinosaurs around. Either there trying to give you to the aggressive creatures or there trying to help you.
No, it doesn't need a platform saddle. No, it doesn't need to be able to do damage. It has plenty of uses without these, being able to move lots of resources quickly, clear bases of wild dinos without aggroing them, and being among the best for draining turrets, being able to run by them and soak any that hit. If you want a platform saddle and tail whip. Get a bronto.
Stay under it's belly so that you don't get pushed
Jurassic Bio: Diplodocus
Name means: Double Beam
Period: Late Jurassic
Diet: Herbivore
Height: 30ft
Length: 90ft
Description: Diplodocus was the 2nd longest dinosaur in history (1st was memenchisaurus). Unlike its relative, Brachiosaurus, it stood completely horizontally. It likely would’ve used its whip like tail as a weapon against predators.

Tip stay away if he chase you and go back if he stop chasing you
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.
Poor diplos they just want to be your friend :(
You need about 100 Mejoberries. You should probably tame it around a bushy area, so you can keep collecting berries. Do not attack a Diplodocus! Just get close and start feeding it mejoberies. Feed it one mejoberry every time it says to. Diplodocus will knock you around during taming. This is not an attack. It's just playing.
Awesome for taming because it is a passive tame, and it is very good for taming other Dinosaurs because it can push back the Dino without damaging it
Did you guys know that this beautiful dino is the ONLY dino you can passive tame AND knock out tame? It's pretty cool :)
When passive taming, it declines Savoroot and rockcarrots.
If you find this guy on a mountain get ready to get knocked out of the orbit.
Just get under them and you already won
For anyone that wants to passive tame it here is an area under it where he will play the push animation but it wont actually push you this leaves you only with the annoying rawring to deal with for more than 10 mins
