Encountering Tips

How do I kill a diplodocus? diplodocus encountering and battling strategies in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
they just want to play...
They pose little damage because they don't do damage. Just be careful around cliffs as they do inflict knock back, and may knock you off of a cliff, or toward a dangerous dinosaur
Better not stand near a cliff around these guys, trust me I learned the hard way.
If you play on old ark mobile then you will occasionally see dilos gang up on diplos until the diplo dies, if you switched to ark use you no longer have to see this as dilos are aggressive to less creatures.
Diplo is that one crewmate who trusts everyone…
DO NOT go near a diplo near a high cliff
One thing for sure is DO NOT and I mean DO NOT let the come into your base when wild one pushed my PASSIVE LVL 136 sarco into the ocean and a shark killed her RIP River :(
Whenever life goes good for me one of these guys comes outta no where and knocks my off a cliff
Hate to the wild green male level 111 who has a 12 kill streak on me
Loves to play and try to make friends good right? Well not really because it also happens to be massive and so when it gently nuzzles you with its nose you get thrown back very far
Don't tame them near a beach they might start whacking you into the ocean I learnt that the hard way
They have sharp looking teeth. WHY DONT THEY USE THEM
See a wild diplo? Its trying to attack you with its head? No damage?!?!?! Must be a bug right? NOPE. Its just a friendly nuzzle😀😀😀.
Stand underneath and stab it's belly, it won't even be able to push you back. Easy kill and tons of meat and hide
If you stand under them they can't push you away
Once I was checking a drop by the edge of redwoods and he smacked me off the cliff right into the darn swamp.
It does zero damage it only does knockback
You see all these people trying to make the Diplodocus seem innocent, however this creature ‘playfully’ threw half of my dinos into the water, which they were killed by other sea dinos. The Diplodocus then followed me and the rest of my dinos as I was trying to save them and nearly killed all of us. Stay safe.
I saw one near my some home stuck in rocks when I found out you hand feed them instead of knock out taming I was like 😱
Killed one with my trike,poor things can't do damage/:
The diplodocus has been categorized as a large dinosaur which means them medium dinosaurs like the raptor or carno shouldn't be able to attack it
