What are tips for diplodocus? Tips and strategies for diplodocus in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
I’m planing on taming one (👍if it’s worth it, 👎if it’s not)
TIP FOR PASSIVE TAME!!
If you want to passive tame it, stand beneath his chest area so it can't reach you when trying to knock you back and feed it with mejoberries until it's tamed.
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.

Legit no lie, if you want to knock out tame them, you can punch it out without being flung to Asia. As long as you camp near any on the legs, you’re golden!
Stand between their front legs, right at bottom of their neck. So u will never knock back, feed them from there
When taming to make it easier stand against a cliff or a good sized rock. I tamed one for my brother and it was a piece of cake with that technique. Also if you find that the place you find the diplodocus isn’t safe just get near it and lead it away. They won’t hurt you they just like to swat you around like they are playing a game of soccer.

Poor diplos they just want to be your friend :(
Stand under legs for no knockback so u can tame but earrape
Just get under them and you already won
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.
Dodoex lied. They do damage anywhere form 0-Instakill.
Here's a attack list:
push (10- instakill)
Yeet (instakill)
THIS IS SPARTA (where is my body?)
The only reason you might find one is because there is a dangerous Dino near just like brontosaurus they spawn in the areas of dangerous Dino’s so be careful I saved 5 from raptors and terror birds. #savethedinos
Best place to find them is in a valley, get him/her stuck next to a cliff. Settle under 'em, just behind the front legs. They stop eating because they are trying to push you away. I stayed in place the whole time. Level 35 used about 33 berries, total time, including getting 'em to stick against the cliff side, 35 minutes. Second berry is like a 5 minute wait from the first berry. After that every 30 seconds or so add a berry. Obviously the higher levels will need more berries and time. Hope it helps.
While taming, keep a close eye on your surroundings. Nothing is more annoying than almost taming a diplodocus and a dilo comes out of the bushes and bites it (which resets the tame bar)
They are very playful and like pushing you back. If you can get underneath them you can stay there (they won’t move out of fear of hurting you and they can’t pish you away) and you can tame them for there. I go right under their stomach and it is best to come under from behind.
As a resident diplo daddy, I love these guys.
They're easy enough to tame and have great health, stamina and weight.
In most cases, when you ride solo, the few things that attack it can be easily overtaken and escaped from (notable exceptions being the rhyniognatha and wyverns). This, combined with their stat spread, makes them great for safely hauling resources over long distances. They can also be used as a host for acquiring a rhyniognatha, should you wish to.
Always check for dangers while taming it. This thing is found in mountains and valleys and also sometimes it throws me into a spino or a carno or a pack of raptors
they just want to play...
