Trapping these guys isn't a difficult process. If you don't have the time or resources to make a full trap, just put down one or two bear traps, space them a little bit apart, and get behind them, then aggro the baryonyx you want. It'll run onto them and get stuck, then just take them down! (I have a Mastercraft bow I found in a drop, so only about four or five tranq arrows did the trick.)

What can they do?In my opinion Barys are the best cave dino in the game and very easy to get early game all you need it tranqs and fish meat. You could definitely argue that direwolves are better because of there pack ability, but a bary can hit harder than a rex sometimes. 100% Recommend to go get yourself a bath as fast as you can. How to tame? The baryonx saddle is unlocked at level 49 which by doing note run’s, you can get there fast. They are relatively easy to knock out as well so really all you need is a crossbow and like 30 tranqs. I recommend using a trap on these guys.All you need for the trap is 4 fence foundations a bola or bear trap and four stone walls. Once you get this bary knocked down you want to make sure that you get plenty of fish meat (or prime fish meat for faster tame) because they are pescatarians so they will strictly only eat fish. After the game there saddle can be crafted in a smithy by using the following ingredients. 225 hide, 25 metal ingots and 350 fiber. And that’s my instructions on how to tame a baryonx, hope it helped!

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.

This has to be one of my 10 favorite dinos that I've used. It has decent damage and okay health, and its also super fast, and it's stamina is really not that bad, and it has that stun attack underwater. This makes it a versatile all-around mount capable of fighting off enemies or escaping them too.

If you want to tame one of these at level 20-30s I recommend you to have an ichthyosaurus, crossbow, and minimal 6 tranqs and 1 arrow. They may be dangerous in water but that's if your tames are slow. My strategy is to lure them to land I usually shoot one of them mount my ichthy and lure it to a safe area where no Dinos are around. if you're searching on swamp areas don't worry predators like kapros and sarcos won't attack you while you're mounting your ichthy. After you knock it out feed it fish meat they do not want normal meat. You ran out of fish meats? Kill some megs with your ichthy megs are easy 50+ fish meat don't be intimidated by them they only attack land creatures same with most water/ semi aquatic creatures. Hope this helps you!

Taming these guys is worth it, because if you can get 2,breed them, get that 100% imprint, then take it out for a spin to get xp, then you can get a power house. This was the case for me, to this day she is my favorite mount, she can kill alpha rexs if done strategically,she can almost any thing in the ocean, and can plow through caves and she's only level 82. Definitely get one of these.

On Mobile, Baryonyx’s torpor drops really fast, so you should probably pump in a little narcotic or bio toxin even if Dododex says you don’t have to just in case. I had a lvl100 taming, and lost it when I went to get some extra bio-toxin from my base on the other side of the map. By lost, I meant it COMPLETELY disappeared.
