Tips & Strategies
If you are looking to get one off of your tail, and you have tranq darts, all you need to do is fire at least 13 darts into its body and mostly its head and then it will begin running due to torpor. If you’re looking to tame it, grab a bunch of vegetables, more specifically, savroots, as they prefer them over the other crops, but you only need at least a hundred and eight or so. Otherwise, ironically, their main weakness is verticality. If you are looking to not have to slowly back up as you fill it with darts, you can stand on a cliff, such as at herbivore island, and it will run into the cliff side without being able to reach you, after which you can just unload on it.
I recommend taming this as soon as you get the saddle! They’re a super easy tame, use a crossbow with about 25-80 depending on the level, hop on a pteranodon after shooting it once, land, hop off, shoot it more, rinse and repeat till KO. If you have boosted taming time, just use mejos and it’ll work fine.
my bloody legendary bronto clapped 2 rexs and another bronto
Almost killed one with a wooden spike wall. The perfect trap would be a circle of traps then Aggro or be pasint the it will try to attack the traps and die
These seem slow until you piss one off. After that you have entered orbit

How to tame bronto
Where to find:
Bronto can be foind in beaches and herbivore island
Taming detals:
Bronto are knockout tames and they eat berries
Problems:
Brontos do knockback, lots of damage and they have very high torpor an they are large so it's difficult to trap them and it will tame almost an hour to tame them
Advantages:
Brontos are slow so you can outrun them and there torpor drains slow so you dont need to feed it narcotics
Abilities when tamed:
Brontos can destroy many bushes and trees in 1 swing of its its tail and it can damge creatures by walking on them and they have a platform saddle so they can carry massive amounts of weight
Disabilities when tamed:
Brontos are slow and have terrible oxygen so they drown quickly and when you're riding it you cant see the creatures infrot of you
Dear noobs,
When you encounter this formidable creature do not hit it with your fists as after that it will send you to Jupiter and back.

If your killing them for xp use a flyer just above there head so they don't agro
Up if it helped
A useful guide to tame bronto :
You can use tranq arrows and perch up on a cliff and fire at it from there. It will be stuck on the rocks and will not be able to attack you. Do not hit it on a lowered platform. Go higher enough so that it can't hit you. Then shoot it until it goes a bit far so you can confirm it's fleeing. Then go nearby and keep shooting until it falls unconcious. Hope this tip helps.
Git to a high place that the Brontosaurus can not hit you and then use 50 to 60 tranq arrows
Whoever it was who said one pushed them off a cliff for no reason. That was a diplodocus not a bronto diplodocus are small and have straight necks and pointy teeth for stripping leaves off of bushes and ferns while brontos are big with bendy necks and kind of beak like mouths for snapping leaves and twigs put of the canopy.
The best place to find theese is herbivore island /small tip:NEVER LEAVE UR DINOS ON AGRO THERE/
I suggest a raft to get there, bring some Dino’s too
There’s at least a single bronto there, but usually there’s two.
Bring at least a 500 berries, at least, plz do more tho
I also say u get some major soothing balm, and at least 60 tranqs,
Also there’s metal rocks on herbivore island
Why does a diplo saddle have an 11 person capacity and a bronto saddle only has 1
Me: Builds base on herbivore island (that small island in the southeast)
The 4 brontos on the island: *Curious Bronto Noises*
BEST WAY TO TAME!...... build some stone dino gateways... Place in a small area around the bronto... He wont be able to go anywhere. So you can then just sit back and shot away.
Im currently taming a bronto :) its just a level two though but it has alot of health. It only took 14 tranq arrows just as dododex said,dododex is very usefu.
