More Kaprosuchus Taming & KO Tips
Most legitimate taming method for Kapros lvl 50 or lower(I did this at level 8, barely leveled health, and haven’t tested on high levels so it might work on them as well)
Step 1: find yourself a nice spot in the swamp to sit down near the water with your club and relax
Step 2: Get jumped by Kapro
Step 3: start clubbing/punching Kapro, it won’t be able to escape as you are in its mouth
Step 4: feed it literally any meat, I haven’t had problems with kapros actually waking up
Easy tame, you’re welcome (up plz)
DO NOT LAND FOR STAMINA IN THE SWAMP!!!! i lost my best Pteranodon and all my gear to a lvl 100 these guys arent ment to be taken likely and make Sarcos look like dodos
When in swamps, watch yourself. These things will leap at you from nowhere, and they WILL take you off your mount if they touch you
Here’s how I did it.
Step 1. Find low lvl Kapro
Step 2. Run at Kapro
Step 3. Punch Kapro til it faints
Step 4. Shove boa meat down it’s throat
This method worked twice for me, with a lvl 1 and a lvl 3. If you’re going for a high lvl, a crap load a health will see that this method still works
Tame a large dinosaur (I used a yuty, I'm not sure if kapros can knock you off a large mount so be weary of this, but a kapro has yet to knock me off of my yuty and I've tamed 3 of them so far) and tame a dilophosaur to use as bait. Make sure both are set to passive. Once you see a kapro and you're in aggro range, hop off your yuty for a sec then hop back on. The kapro should be aggroed onto you but will attack your mount trying to get to you. Move around a bit and the kapro will eventually change targets to the dilo. Once it's got the dilo in it's jaws, you can get off your yuty and shoot it with tranq darts and bam, you got yourself a new dino
Pickup with argentavis drop into your taming box as usual. Will fit easily into 2x3. Walls should be at least 3 high.
Whoever said, “they don’t come in purple,”...well...mine’s purple! Ha! Ha!
On ark mobile they are affected by bolas
I was hunting sarco, and out of nowhere this guy(lvl 2) grab me from my argie, we fly prety far. I was in his mouth and I knocked him with fists, feed him and now he is my pet.
I managed to tame one using a high level beelzebufo (not too much higher level than the kapro otherwise its attacks will kill it, alternatively you could probably use a lower level one and level all points into health) because my frog was able to knock it unconcious. I could have tamed the other one that was in the area, but it was busy knawing at my legs and I panicked.
So while you're being lovingly caressed, have your beelzebufo on neutral and both you whacking it with a bat and your frogs attacks *should* knock it out before you die. Just make sure no other sarcos or anything are in the area. (Protip: jump while mounted on your froggo and you'll dodge a kapros lunge. It'll give you enough time to at least put a tranq dart/arrow into it to get the ball rolling)
