Diplodocus — Detailed Guide

The Diplodocus is a gentle sauropod whose saddle seats a whole group. It does not deal damage, but its tail knocks attackers back, so it is a calm way to move many survivors at once.

Where to find it

It grazes on The Island, The Center, Ragnarok, Valguero and Extinction in both games, on Astraeos, Lost Colony and Genesis Part 1 in ASA, and on Crystal Isles, Fjordur, Lost Island and Genesis Part 2 in ASE. Valguero has the most.

Taming

A passive tame: walk up and feed it. It is one of the easiest large creatures to tame. Its saddle unlocks at level 32. See the taming calculator.

Breeding

  • Egg: hatches in about 5 hours.
  • Temperature: 26 to 29 °C.
  • Growth: a baby matures in about 3.9 days at 1x.

Uses

Group transport for a tribe, and Raw Prime Meat and Sauropod Vertebra when harvested.

Tips

It cannot defend itself, so keep it away from predators when you travel.
