Tips & Strategies
(I’m on mobile so idk if this is the same for other devices, I am also a slightly new player). One day I was searching a swamp for a sarco to tame with my raptor and carbonemys, until one of these guys showed up. This dino kidnapped my raptor and ran off! While my carbonemys and I were off chasing it, a swarm of megapiranhas caught me. While trying to fight off the evil fish, I eventually died leaving my dinos. I respawned at my camp anxiously requesting my carbonemys. After my turtle was teleported to me, I requested my raptor. Unfortunately, I couldn’t request him because it said, “Cannot request when dino is being carried.” I rode on my iguanodon to get it back, but before I got there my raptor had died from the kaprosuchus. I tried my best to look for his implant but I couldn’t find it.
Be careful these guys can kidnap you or your dinos.
RIP Abraham one of my best tames. :(
More Kaprosuchus Encountering Tips
decided to fly low in a swamp with my argie, a kapro jumped and kidnapped me off my argie. I live to tell my story, they do not have candy, don’t trust them.
Ever seen a frail old lady in the supermarket get randomly dump-tackled while she was browsing the clementines?
Well guess what, if you go to the swamp, you're going to be the old lady.
If you run across one and it happens to leap at you, bite you, and start to carry you away throw a bola at it and it will let you go.
uncariable by argy huh yeah argy or quetz and wyvern can carry it
This guy is my favourite so far, right from when I first meet him, I was a noob and wandered close to a swamp well he came flying at me missed and disappeared behind me, I'm like what the neck was that, climbed a big arse rock asap and looked around, bugger came bounding back towards me and leapt straight up that rock like it was a mole hill.
Tamed the bugger and took him hunting, came across my first raptor and shat myself thinking oh rap I am screwed, nope Kappa flys over my head, collects the raptor and pile drives it into the ground several meters away, hilarious. Always fun times with Kappa around.
I shit myself a little the first time one jumped at me, not gonna lie
For all the noobs out there, if these things kidnap you in the swamp, here’s what to do. Take out your bow/ gun. Pray you have ammo and fire right into its head. This strategy has saved me countless times.
P.S. If you have a strong melee weapon such as a pike or sword on you, that also works.
Me: is within a 6 mile radius of a swamp
Kapro: Bonjour
Don't put these guys off as weaklings. They will ruin your day. If you get grabbed by on quickly kill it before it kills you and your mount. They are very frail so it isn't too bad if you act quickly.
Hippity hoppity you are my property
