Tips & Strategies
Don’t go into a swamp if you need a poo.
Because if you do, a Kapro will come and scare you.
It will carry you around
Until you die on the ground
And it won’t let you return to collect your stuff.
Sit rep: I was killed by a Kapro, couldn’t get my stuff and my Pteranodon was killed. That poo came out faster than the speed of sound when that Kapro scared me. Kapros are a bit overpowered.
I think the devs should add a command for singleplayers that makes it possible for the Kapro to grab creatures on it‘s own without attacking them, so the player can stand in front of him to knock the dinosaur out (as a command like you can activiate turret mode with the chalicotherium)
Drop in someone's base as a gift
This creature kills you so fast that it crashes the game. No, seriously. I’ve had my game crash on several occasions, every time the cause being death by Kapro. Not sure if this is a known bug or not, but I’d just like to put it out there in case anyone has had the same issue.
This is a very useful mount, especially in PvP. It has a special jump attack, which can grab players and hold them, or knock them of their mounts. It doesn't have much health though. It is fast on land and in the water, however increasing movement speed doesn't affect swimming speed.
I was trying to find equus using my sarco as a transport there was swamp… MY SARCO GOT KILLED BY THESE!!!! NEVER GO NEAR SWAMPS!!!!

Consciousswine 75 see ya on ark
So I kinda wanted to tame one so I went to grab one with my argy…
He grabbed me off the argys back fell into the water with him I pulled out my sword and killed him then all the STUIPED TORPOR DEALING SNAKES CAME AT ME I made it out alive but I almost drowned while I was knocked out I made it to my nearest outpost from there I grabbed my pteranodon and flew to whistle my argy and flew home
PS: it is useful to have outposts where you can retreat also the outposts should have a flyer and supplies. I have 1 in redwoods 2 next to diff parts of swamp and some others through the map
If you're not careful this creature will give you the kaprosucccccccc
Lap rod are great for caves with a lot of parkour because they can jump so far and long but if you have a thylo use both. Use the kapro for jumping forward and use the thylo for climbing vertically. Very useful pair you can also use weapons while on both. Plus ja pros are fun to tame just fly low in a swamp on a pt or Argie and they’ll come give you a hug.
Dont plow through swamps with a raft. They still aggro on you and dismount you, and all of your tames on board the raft will leap into the water to protect you, dieing to a bary or sarco.
How to tame:
1. Craft Bola
2. Yeet at kapro
3. Tranq it
4. Put lotsa meat in inventory
5. Use it to destroy the island
Not so much a tip as a warning, bolas DO NOT work on them. It feels like they should but they DO NOT.
Fun fact: you can't bola a kaprosuchus
