Encountering Tips

How do I kill a kaprosuchus? kaprosuchus battling strategies in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
Kapros can kill via fall damage! ⚠️ Beware kapros launching at you from a lower area! Their launch attack has the same distance even if they’re launching vertically, so you can become fatally injured just from the fall damage when they let you go. The biggest risk of this happening is around the lifted edges of the swamp, where they can jump directly up at you if you get too close. Scared the life out of me the first time it happened.
Don’t get too close or they will grab you
Go fishing and you’ll find this guy jumping out of blue
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.
Kaprosuchus and Titanoboas will ruin your experience in the swamps. If you don't want to die, bring a pteranodon or another flying mount.
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.
These guys are ANNOYING as they killed half of my dinos when I had first time in the swamp. Also I tamed one WITHOUT a bola(I set my strong dinos to passive and let it attack my brontos-it does like no damage-and I tranqd it out.)it got killed by a rexy even though I had a SPINOSAURUS and 2 LVL 20 BRONTOS! They can also carry you in their mouths
The dossier says that they bite u in ur vital areas for u to lose stamina
pedos...
When you think you see one stay back away. Use a spyglass to make sure it isn’t a sarco
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.
Watch out tot them, even when you are at endgame: they shred through ascendant TEK armour like it's nothing!
Run just run they will tip you to pieces
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
What I don’t understand is how a Overweight croc is the bane of our swampy existence
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.
When someone asks if you wanna get in a van…
There’s just kapros inside
Oh my god I remember mid game ark... I was on my pt going around the swamp because I was low on stam... and lag happened and I flew straight into the water so it dismount me then 2 kapros jumped at me and I died.... I couldn't find my stuff but I got my pt back....
But it did cost me a dino
When encountering a swarm you litterily have to ride your ptera or whisile your tank creatures to avoid them
Like if this was helpfull!
Run. I was on a raft exploring the northern part of the map and halfway there I saw 2 Kapros just gnawing on this poor fish and I thought nothing of it because I’ve never been attacked on my raft, so coming back down, a Kapro JUMPED ONTO MY RAFT AND ALMOST HIT ME. Just don’t mess with these guys.
I could be on my wolf and they take me in there mouthes they aren’t strong but they steal my whole existence
