What are tips for kaprosuchus? Tips and strategies for kaprosuchus in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
Can carry own Dino with mediums size and below. Attack works on both wild and tamed creatures, even tribemate
Always use a bola when trying to knock out this dino, once your in its mouth you might as well give up so make sure you have 2-5 bolas and plenty of tranqs. If necessary us an argentavis to pick it up and put it into a taming pen (preferably 3X3) and knock it out like that.
Locate a kapro by flying overhead, bring 3 fence foundations and 4 doorways and a few bolas, all stone quality structures. fly a tin bit out of kapro agro range and place your three fence foundations down snapping in a straight line. build a 1 tall by 3 wide wall of frames, and place your last frame on the center making it 2 tall. walk until the kapro targets you, and back up into the central doorway and wait until it lunges. a few paces back will be far enough for it to not hit you. now you can bola the kapro and knock it out for taming. the wall in the center will be tall enough to keep the kapro from leaping over. alternatively you can place a bear trap down and they will get trapped. both large and small DO work
You can actually pick them up with an argy. I did this with a few of them
Tame a High Level!I repeat but they are fun to ride they can knock players off tames I don't recommend taming low level
I hate these things they poison anyone and take you anywhere
Killing the Kapros are easy to do as long as you manage to get onto its back and stab it repeatedly with a sword or if you’re lower on level just keep shooting tranquil arrows and order all your pets to finish it off. But beware find and stay on high ground ASAP these things jump out of the water and pounces on you with knock back attacks and is way more agile than sarcos and often stick around in sarco packs of about 3-4 or more. So if you’re travelling near a swampland and you see these things jumping out of the water. Remember what I said.
Oh yeah make sure your movement speed iz up.
Is not immobilized by the bola
I was in the swamp with my bird then I ran out of stamina I was like well that sucks when all of the sudden one leaped on me and a lot of Dino’s where helping it kill me why i tp my birdie to me it was asleep all ready
A pain they rip you of your mound and eat you
Just punch the heck out of it and give it fish
They are Glass Cannons. Kapros can deal tons of damage but can’t take much in return
I would put this thing in a grinder if I can... I mean just damn them,DAMN THEM ALL
I was playing mobile and wanted one so I picked it up with my argentavis and while I had it picked up it threw me off the mount, thank god for soft reset (when you power something completely off so the game doesn’t remember it)
When one of these things grabs you while resting in the swamp, just simply grab your shotgun and blow their head off.
These things have killed me I don’t know how many times and I have never even come close to killing one.
Personally, I like these guys even better than sarcos. Their speed and agility make them good on land as well as water, their smaller size makes them easier to maneuver, and their grab attack is amazing.
So I’ve never actually tamed one of these, (never thought it would be worth it) but now I realize that if I do try to tame one, it will probably see me before I see it. And by the time I manage to Trang it out, I’ll be in it’s stomach. And IK that must be other people afraid of this too. So what if, I just got a really high health dilo, named him bait and set him on passive, and threw him to the edge of the swamp, where the lapel will jump out and gnaw on it for a minute, and then so can tranq it out. Like I said this might not work as I have never tried it but it’s a thought, so good luck!
