Encountering Tips
How do I kill a kaprosuchus? kaprosuchus battling strategies in ARK: Survival Evolved.
This has to be the most hated dinosaur in Ark. Let me say why. I’m riding my raptor near a swamp then out of nowhere this thing shows up and takes my raptor and kills it.
Watch out tot them, even when you are at endgame: they shred through ascendant TEK armour like it's nothing!
These are carriable by Argies, I usually pick them up and drop them in a pen to tame them really easily. Though it may be because I play on mobile?
Watch out for these guys I had my direwolf on a raft and a swarm of them went for my direwolf I never saw him again.
I used to think Karpros like eating fish more than normal meat. So whenever you want to tame one, just get normal meat(raw) which is also easier too! They look like baby sarcos🐊
Go fishing and you’ll find this guy jumping out of blue
Spawn in the swamp
Also every water source in SE
They kill things. My basic strategy is to lure into a doedic because they spawn a lot on SE too
Don’t fly too low in the swamp.
Easy to kill with a kangaroo. All you have to do is face the Kaprosuchus when it runs at you. Use the kick attack the the moment it’s feet leave the ground and you’ll send it flying away.
Kaprosuchus and Titanoboas will ruin your experience in the swamps. If you don't want to die, bring a pteranodon or another flying mount.
For mobile players, you CAN BOLA THIS THINGS!!! I just did it out of fear for my life and it stopped him! It works!!! Dododex has it wrong!
Don't fly near the swamp, AT ALL. I almost lost my triple mutated deinonychus but luckily my Tapejara is fast af. Kapro knocked me off my mount and killed me, but my lvl 401 Deinonychus killed it right as I died, came back and saw it almost dying to a group of high level sarcos, scariest moment of my life.
I've seen a purple kapro like the icon before in mobile, though probably won't normally see one like it on pc or other platform.
This Dino is often underestimated, yes they’re somewhat weak but in the early stage of the game they can destroy you, their grab attack is VERY useful for killing smaller predators, and for pvp. I suggest taking one if you’re into pvp, make sure to dump a load of points into health and damage, their weight is decent so don’t worry about it
Be careful, these guys can grab you WHILE picked up. One grab me while I had it in my Argy’s clutches and we dropped 200 ft together. It was great bonding time.
Run just run they will tip you to pieces
Probably one of the most surprising attackers in the game, a Kapro has to fly at your face and Inject it’s stamina depleting poison(I am not completely sure if this is a mobile thing), however, if you have a strong melee weapon on you, you can quickly escape via killing it and sprint onto your mount or raft if you brought one for the journey.
When you think you see one stay back away. Use a spyglass to make sure it isn’t a sarco
Very long creatures, don’t mistake them for a log. I would know
I was going to get my died cops in redwoods I was going on my level 123 breeded raptor i have kill 8 rex with him and kaprosuchus kidnapped my raptor and killed him I am very shocked to see he was only level 1 R.I.P my raptor
