Baryonix Survival Evolved

Hi hello and howdy! Im a console player here to make the ultimate survival and other tips. Now I have a 98 lvl baryonix. Here’s how I tamed him:

Remember: They CAN breath underwater.

Knockout: (Bola don’t work :)) I play genesis 2 so I would just fly in the air shooting tranq arrows like a noob but do find a high place and shoot. When it runs just go run at it shooting. I tamed mine underwater when I didn’t know it was a water Dino.

Use (for taming food): Raw fish meat, and raw prime fish meat (personally these are way better so you can keep track of the bary)

Fight off any Dino’s who would kill your sleeping bary

Wait all the time giving it food and any narcotics and berries.

I would say their torpidity for taming is in the middle of fast and slow

Name ideas!: name them after present day water rocks based on their color! (Mine was red so I named it after a coral)

Tysm for reading and sorry this was long

When your growing up theses guys they must eat fish meat when they reach adolescence! They will start to starve if they don't get it!!

This dinosaur is a very intricate but interesting dinosaur to get. I did find it near the shore line as it had seen me and wanted to eat me. However I had 5 tranq arrows which you can get at lvl 21. I shot all 5 and he fell to the ground. Very good dinosaur to tame especially in the water. It beats anything in the water even with its stun strike. I recommend using this dino to fight. I have one named Juju. One like equals One love for Juju

You get raw prime fish meat if you use a sickle on a sabertooth salmon, that is faster than the regular fish meat..

Spino + Raptor = Baryonyx. faster than the raptor on land and faster than the spino in water... cool dinosaur

They are pescatarians so they only eat fish

Okay, so this thing eats any fish meat... then why does it eat me?

They heal really quick by just killing fish, they heal quite quick eating fish meat but actually just killing fish is much faster.

Killing fish heals it, it heals quick by eating fish meat but actually just killing fish is much quicker!

When simply crossing a river, a lvl 85 killed me and my 9 raptors. I was coming back from hunting with this raptor pack, shredding paracers, therizinosaurs, and other very strong creatures. All it took was one bary in water to just stun lock all 9 of them to death, and they couldn’t fight back. I respawned and managed to kill the bary on land with my Iguanadon, a quick and easy fight, took it out in a few hits.. The difference between land and water with these guys is insane. That water stun is no joke😭😭😭 I can’t even be mad, but Rest in Peace to Scamp, Atronach, Pyro, Smiley, Hectic, Raptor, Raptor, Raptor, and Raptor.

Trying to tame one of the most versatile cave dinos in the game? Continue reading! Before we use yet another tame slot, let's prepare for some taming! Here's what you'll want to pack:

DIFFICULTY: 4.5/10 (Fairly Easy)

WHAT YOU NEED:

-Taming Weapon + Ammo: (Bow (Tranq Arrow) Crossbow, (Tranq Arrow), Longneck (Tranq/ Shocking Tranq Darts) )

-Biotoxins/ Narcotics

-Fish Meat or Raw Prime Fish Meat

Alright, now that you're up and ready, let's go!

Now, for taming a Baryonyx, there are a few methods (ok only 2 ik):

METHOD 1: THE TRAP

The usual. However, there are a few modifications to this new trap. Here's what you'll need:

MATERIALS:

-1x Stone Foundation

-8x Stone Doorways

-2-3x Wooden Ramps

NOTE: I will include an extra option for this method, where wooden ramps are not needed.

Now that you have your trap built, lure the Baryonyx into the trap. Start shooting it through the gaps in the doorways until its knocked out. Put raw FISH meat (They do not eat Raw Meat or Prime Meat) in its inventory and wait for it to tame. Make sure to keep an eye on its torpor and feed it biotoxins/ narcotics if needed. However, you can also go and hunt for raw prime fish meat (No megalodon needed) if you have a sickle, where you can harvest prime fish meat from Sabertooth Salmon corpses. Wait a little while and boom! A new Baryonyx!

Now, with the second option:

You can use an Argentavis to pick up the Baryonyx and drop it into the trap, saving you some resources in that you do not need the wooden ramps. Repeat the taming process and boom! Your Baryonyx is ready!

METHOD 2: The Easy Method

The only thing you need for this method is the Bola. Find a Baryonyx (Usually found in swamps which are dangerous, but can spawn along rivers.), get it to aggro on you, and bola it while its running to you. You can try to club him but I would definitely tranq it down. Once its down, repeat the taming process mentioned above and name your new Baryonyx!

Now, onto the utilities of this creature:

UTILITIES:

Baryonyxes are great cave dinos, with decent health, melee, speed and stamina. Although there are better options for different caves, the Baryonyx is the most versatile and is great for most, if not all caves, this is due to their stats and also slender body, allowing it to fit through most slim cracks in caves. Do note that when force fed Raw Meat, the Baryonyx will not heal, but force feeding fish meat will. They also have a AoE ability that only works in water which does a tail spin attack, stunning nearby creatures (Not all of them) and doing damage (It works up to the Megalodon I believe.).

That's all I have to say about the Baryonyx. Thank you for sticking around and happy taming!

PREVIOUS TIP:

-How to tame Argentavis

-Your Average ARK Mobile Player ;)

Dont fight it in the water unless you enjoy being stun locked and drowning to death.

I think these are so underrated.

When I started playing ARK as a solo PVP player I always manage to survive by living hidden in the swamps and having tames and just the natural danger of the swamp for defense rather than relying on turrets. I'll take a swarm of well bred dimorphidons over turrets any day.

Barrys were always by far the most dangerous thing I would encounter in the swamps. A lower level wild tame is reliable. A high level wild tame is nasty but once you can get a well-bred imprinted one they can handle anything. After owning Barrys for years I finally tamed my first Rex to see what the hype was about. I was never really a fan of them due to their size but this was a Max level Tek rex. I couldn't resist. It was cool looking but I was honestly extremely disappointed in its performance. I was talking about this on the server and someone was convinced it was because it wasn't bred and imprinted. They gave me an egg from their rexes that had multiple generations of attack mutations. I fully imprinted it. Was still disappointed. Yes it has higher natural Health than a Barry but thats it. Barry kills way faster. I think it has something to do with the attack speed. Rexs are also big clunky and slow. Barry is an amphibious ATV that's stronger than large tames yet as fast and maneuverable as small tames. Small enough for caves. Can do both dry and aquatic caves. They also heal unbelievably fast while killing fish. You don't need to sit there and force feed them meat forever after they lose a few thousand health.

I've killed both alpha rexs and alpha squid with them. No other creature in the game can do that. People think I'm lying when I tell them this saying that I probably couldn't even kill an alpha carno with one.

I think many players are too obsessed with what streamers or YouTube have told them are the best creatures in the game. Or maybe just too obsessed with stats. Think outside the box. You'll be amazed at how powerful and versatile these are.

YOU CAN NO LONGER BOLA THESE!!!!! REMEMBER THAT!!!

i tamed this one and named it: bary-onyx

it was easy u just need tranq darts (5-7) and fish

u can't find them at the coast, u have to look at the rivers

one UP for Barry please

Really good for exploring caves. Just NOT lava cave!! RIP Leafclaw😔😢

Excellent tame for living on a boat due to it's ability to breathe underwater. Will harvest hundreds of raw fish meat whilst defending you from other underwater nasties. My Bary lvl 64, named Ratchet, killed in excess of 35 Megs before meeting his match with a lvl 40 Alpha Meg whilst defending our house boat. A salute to all your hard work old friend, you shall be avenged.

Everything you need to know:

(1) they will dismount you on certain creatures

(2) they can be picked up my argentavis.

(3) they eat raw fish meat

(4) mostly in swamps or shallow areas with fish

Question:

If they eat fish, why do they eat me………

Thanks for reading my tip.

They should be friend with spino am I right?

Argies can carry it on mobile arrow to the sky to let people know
