Player-written tips for taming, using, and fighting the Kaprosuchus in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.

I ended up taming a level 100 Kapro on Crystal Isles. I was scouting with my level 230 (approximate) pteranodon — oddly enough, I found a lone one just off of the shore in the shoals biome (this area was a bit close to a swamp, so). They are very scary in the water, as they…

How to tame

1.pee your pants

2.grab with an argentavis .putt in taming pen

4.tranq out. Notice:they will and can jump over the taming pen walls

Great for caving! Small enough to fit in most caves without cryopods, quick enough to run through the caves without much hassle, immune to leeches in the swampy caves, and candles grab and dispose of Arneos easily!

I have tamed two of these if you have a sarco you can use it by clearing out the area and it is easier if it is attacking a snail clear out the trees because it would be a lot easier to shoot all you need is a bow and arrow use tranq arrows and then start shooting it I would…

These things are more dangerous than they look. I once had a dire bear, terror bird, and carno in the redwoods by swamp together in neutral while I was taming stuff further in the redwoods and a bunch of Kapros ganged up and killed all of them except the carno

This will only work if, 1, the kaprosuchus is low level, 2,you are a high level, so when the kaprosuchus grabs you, punch it out, it works, make sure you aren’t near any mean creatures, or it will die, hope you can do it!

So me a lvl 15 nub found a lvl 3 spino, twas really ez to tame for some reason. Walked into a swamp turn around and see this thing launching itself on my spino. Long story short my spino got a nice meal.

Be careful when traveling through the swamp, they can launch at you and drag you into the water. If you act quickly, with either using a Bola or Attacking, you can escape. A high level one will be extremely dangerous if unprepared.

Easy kapro taming

1. Get meat, a crossbow, and 10 to 50 tranqs, and a bed

2. Find a good swamp where kapros spawn

3. Find a safe place to set down the bed. Now you have a respon point

4. Find a good kapro

5. Let him (or her!) pick you up

6. Keep shooting…

I have about 15 of these guys in my OP base and literally every time I come back to base there is a pile of bodies that includes everyone in the entire god damn server I definitely suggest taming these bad boys

if you’re on a pteranodon and gotta stop to increase stamina and you were lucky enough to be above the swamp, never and i repeat NEVER land on the sides of the swamp. the coast may seem clear but those suckers will come at you out of nowhere and kick u off ur tame and tear u…
