Tips & Strategies

Never ever ever take one of these guys on with a pteranadon even if your friend tells you to. These Dino's can knock you off your mount and stun you for ten seconds, this is no dillo blinding attack when stunned you cannot do anything at all except watch him eat you and your dino.

Okay, so this thing eats any fish meat... then why does it eat me?
Dont fight it in the water unless you enjoy being stun locked and drowning to death.
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 couldnโt 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 joke๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ I canโt even be mad, but Rest in Peace to Scamp, Atronach, Pyro, Smiley, Hectic, Raptor, Raptor, Raptor, and Raptor.
Lost 6 raptors to a Baryonyx stun in the shallow end of a river, a and a swathe of piranhas.
RIP to Mars, Mercury, Io, Venus, Neptune, and Pluto.
NEVER and I mean NEVER FIGHT IN WATER. They will stun and all you can do is wait as you see this thing kill your lv 132 triceratops. That has killed rexs. Rip Trixie the triceratops Jan 2020- Mar 2020.
Can be carried by an Argie...
Can we talk about the fact that I just saw one of these guys kill and eat a spino of the same level both at full health before the fight ๐ค๐ค
A trap 6x2 is good enough for it not to get out. Trapped on just along the shore of the swamp.
Only eats fish? This thing just ate a trike.
Baryonyx, despite their raptorlike legs, cannot be bolaโd. Donโt learn this the hard way.
