probably best dino fo caves (most) he also has decent dmg and hp but special ability is just insane when you are underwater you can stun everything around you (doesnt work for fishes) but for example sarco the ability last for i think 10 or so sec and they are very easy to tame (sorry for my bad english and i missclicked my last tip)

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

Ounce tamed they only eat fish meat(I almost lost one because I didn't know) but collect plenty also they keep the stun attack and work well with kapros

If you have this boi upgrade the go and stamina and start hunting and bullying some brontos and carboneyms but hey this guy is the easiest way to get prime meat

These guys are pretty common around swamps, and sometimes you will find one along a beach. To tame them just make a 1x2 trap. I’ll list the items that I used; 2 wooden foundations (wood is just the minimum, I recommend stone.), 6 wood door frames, and a wooden ramp (this is just for the trap). You will need around 1 tranq arrow per level, or one tranq dart per 5 lvls (Make sure to shoot their head with tranq darts). Depending on the level and taming effectiveness, the amount of narcotics and food needed may vary. I would just bring however much food/narcotics you feel comfortable with bringing ( I would recommend raw prime fish meat, but if you have a lot of narcos you can use normal fish meat).

Thanks for reading, even though it’s pretty long. If I get 25 ups I will make a kapro taming guide!

Don’t get in the water with these crazy mofos They will stun a lv 200 killed my lv 199 tree in a river

Don't try to grab a wild one out of the water...

I always trap these under my wyverns and then tranq them so I don't have to build traps.

1. Bola or put down a bear trap and get it stuck

2. Put 4 fence foundations down and then 4 doorways or walls around the Barry

3. Shoot it full or tranq darts (in the head with a crossbow and arrows works good if you don’t have a gun and darts)

It worked for me and a lvl 280 Barry hope this helps!

When going to caves, bring a Baryonyx because they can fit in most caves and they good damage and stuns creatures.

If your exploring the central cave and get low hp from all the insects and titanoboas and megalosauruses, you can go to the pond near the artifact and kill a whole swarm of piranhas to regain hp.

They didn’t update it yet but yes bolas affect the bary, even if it doesn’t say it. You basically have to have it run at you and you’ll be good.

It can also outrun you on land unless you have a lot of points pumped into movement speed.

Can u pick up Bary with an Argy??? Click the forwards facing arrow ( I had to word it weird ) if yes, down if no. Tysm

If you are playing ark mobile or switch the bary did not get his change and you can still pick it up whit an argy and bola it

To the people who say bola does not work ,I tested it and it works on mobile

YOU CAN NOT TRAP THEM WITH SMALL BEAR TRAPS

To all the people saying climb on a rock and shoot it with tranq arrows let me tell you all you need is bola and some tranqs. Then you should be all set.

Baryonyx are not that hard to tame. You can tame it in the Early game for a good travel mount in water and land,it’s also good for getting artifacts.now if you want to tame a Baryonyx your going to need fish or kibble,meat will not work.you don’t really need a longneck rifle, even though it would probably work faster if your looking to get your first artifact then you probably won’t want to wait until the like the mid game to get a Baryonyx.After finding the one you want,make a trap or have a pretty fast mount because Baryonyx’s are very fast. you could also find high ground and if it’s near water i’m pretty sure we all know we should NOT go in the water. after it’s knocked out give it your food of Choice and that’s a Baryonyx for ya.
