How do I kill a baryonyx? baryonyx battling strategies in ARK: Survival Evolved.
Don’t fight in water whatever you do
Guys if you wanna kill these your gonna need about 5 dilos and just hit it once and your Barry is dead

Just so u know on Crystal Isles u can find Aberrant Baryonyx in Eldtrich Isle located in the Northeast part of the map
DO NOT use these things in the lava cave they will always get plushies in the lava.
R.I.P Binx.
Don’t get in the water with these crazy mofos They will stun a lv 200 killed my lv 199 tree in a river
I tamed this guy and he was level 160 so I was like now i can gather biotoxins then it went in the water and started fighting a jellyfish then about 6-8 of them started attacking me and I got dismounted he was getting killed so I ran to my rex and came back with it the rex killed everyone and my baryoynx was safe but with only 200 hp
Moral: never fight jellyfish with baryoynx
This boy can challenge with T. Rex no lie
I was swimming in the river trying to find/tame an otter and than suddenly a baryonyx spin attack me and i cant do anything cuz i got stun it litterally spamed his spin attack at me and i died hope you guys be carefull cuz baryonyx can spam spin attack and the spin attack can stun you
Be VERY careful with these things. They're difficult to kill at low player levels, and your best bet is to bola it and book it in the other direction. Unless you've got an ascendant bow and some high ground, you're screwed. And NEVER go into the water with those things nearby; their tail spin stuns you if the Baryonyx is in the water.
When battling this creature, it's probably best to jump on a rock or some surface that they can't get to you. From there, you can kill/knock it out quite easily.
Every time I try to find one of these guys to tame they always pick a fight with a Trike or Carno or a Spino and get killed. Now I’m off to tame another because my level 10 I spent OVERNIGHT IN A SWAMP to tame and was just beginning to level got killed by a pack of Mantas. RIP Onyx.. I’ll miss you.
Please note that the normal bear trap does not work from when I tried to tame a barynyonx, if I’m mistaken please let me know.
These guys literally annoy me, I was on my raptor with my otter when suddenly a baryonyx appeared out of thin air! He knocked me of my raptor and started chomping away on it next thing you know my raptor is nearly dead and we are running away. But guess what, a purlovia came running at us... Well let's just say my raptor didn't survive but I somehow got away ;-; my otter was kinda injured cuz I accidently threw it of when I panicked. RIP unnamed raptor
so uhhh somehow the baryonyx in mobile can still be immobilized by bolas but the bolas are not visible in the baryonyx legs (yes you can no longer bola a baryonyx and cannot be picked up by an argy/argentavis)
2 things.
NEVER fight this eel with legs in the water. It is a straight up death sentence!
But, if you desperately want to, take a tame you don’t care about, because trust me, IT WILL DIE.
(If it has 10k health or above, and it’s a shallow river, it MIGHT have a chance)
Fun fact: Baryonyx isn’t the only Dino related to spinosaurus. Two others include suchomimus from Africa and another(forgot the name😬) found in China.
My new Sarco died to one of these,why must they be so territorial?
For everyone saying why does it attack me if it eats fish? Well I have the answer: in it’s official entry it’s aggression is listed as passive to land creatures, but aggressive to water-dwellers so it attacks you when you go in water so don’t go in or near water and it will not attack you.
ONLY aggressive if you get in the water. No wait not “the”water, ITS water. The water belongs to the Barry and there is nothing you can do about it.
It can also outrun you on land unless you have a lot of points pumped into movement speed.
