Breeding the R-Dilophosaur produces fertilized eggs that require careful temperature control.Incubation temperature must stay between 28°C and 32°C - use Air Conditioners, Standing Torches, or Dimetrodons to maintain the range.At the correct temperature, the egg hatches in approximately 1 hour and 8 minutes.

After hatching or birth, the baby R-Dilophosaur matures over the course of several hours, reaching adulthood in about 21 hours and 2 minutes at 1x maturation.The most labor-intensive part is the baby phase (0–10% maturation) when it can't use a Feeding Trough yet.

Offspring inherit parental stats and have a small chance to mutate, gaining +2 levels in a random stat.Use the breeding calculator to plan food requirements, incubation timers, and maturation phases.

The R-Dilophosaur's growth progresses through three stages: Baby (0–10%) lasts ~126 min and requires constant hand-feeding.Juvenile (10–50%) spans ~8h - it can eat from a Trough now.Adolescent (50–100%) takes ~11h - continues eating from troughs, nearly fully grown.

Imprint bonuses are significant: a fully imprinted R-Dilophosaur gains 30% extra damage and damage resistance with its imprinter mounted.Imprint requests include cuddling, walks, and specific kibble - check the wiki for which kibble to stockpile.

Use the raising calculator to plan food requirements for raising R-Dilophosaur babies through all three growth stages.The Baby phase (0–10%) takes ~126 minutes and is the most hands-on, requiring direct feeding or a Maewing.

The multiplier feature helps plan large-scale R-Dilophosaur raises by totaling food across all babies.Consider food spoilage when choosing what to feed: Kibble lasts days, while Raw Meat spoils in minutes.

The R-Dilophosaur, a tamable, carnivore creature in ARK: Survival Ascended, is a notable presence across multiple maps.Classified under the Variant group.

The R-Dilophosaur has 130 base Health - glass-cannon fragile.With 100% base Melee Damage, the R-Dilophosaur has decent hitting power.Stamina sits at 100 base, providing low stamina reserves.It carries 45 base Weight - minimal inventory space.

Taming the R-Dilophosaur requires rendering it unconscious first - use Tranq Arrows, Darts, or Shocking Tranq Darts to apply torpor.Basic Kibble is the most effective food for taming, offering the highest affinity per feeding.

After taming, the R-Dilophosaur fills a general-purpose role, adaptable to whatever your tribe currently needs.It reproduces by laying eggs, which must be incubated between 28°C and 32°C.Killing a wild R-Dilophosaur yields 1 base XP.It can be cloned at a Cloning Chamber for 0.12 Element plus 0.01 Element per level.
