ARK: Survival Evolved Companion
Tips & Strategies
This creature does not need to be knocked out, it is a passive tame which means that you have to passively feed it by hand. This can be done by putting the food or kibble in your last hot-bar slot and pressing "E" (or "Y" on Xbox One) to feed it. Make sure to keep track of when it needs to be fed or else taming efficiency will slowly go down. The type of food you choose can also affect efficiency with kibble giving the highest and other berries giving the lowest. However, kibble can be harder to get in early stages.

If you pump a bunch of levels in these guys health they're really good to feed Carchas
Feed it once, go to the bathroom, grab a snack, watch your favorite movie, take a shower, have dinner with the family, tame a rex and then feed it again
Passive tame them. Dont do like i did and wast a couple hundred tranqs.
These dudes are straight up terrible when you feed them berries they just whip you ( without damage ) for not hurting them.
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
how to tame:
Very easy tame, you will need:
Mejoberries
really any berries
Put the mejoberries in your last slot, and go under its belly and feed it.
It won't kill you, but it will throw you up in the air a bit(a bit if your lucky, i meant).
It might take a bit of feeding and getting thrown in the air, but soon, you will have a retarded ass dinosaur that gets stuck everywhere.
Very easy tame! Just go by a rock while getting hit, so you donβt go far away, and go under the diplo. Keep feeding it mejoberries, and wala you have a diplo. Keep in mind the little bonks donβt hurt so donβt be afraid by that.
I was exploring the forest when I saw a razor tail whip though the sky. I carefully approached and it did not care for me. If you jump of run or make any sudden movements near it it will start knocking you back with itβs head. Now being nicked back is kind of fun but it will remember you and follow you. You will not take damage from it, to tame you hide under itβs belly and start feeding it any type of berry you can, make sure your other games are not near it when you are taming it!
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
I recommend getting a soothing balm when taming it on berries it only goes up like three % even on mejoberrys so I got a soothing balm and fed it to him and now it goes up like 35% each time I feed him my dippy name is mango I almost tame a therizinosaurus with him but I ran out of biotoxin and it killed me
