I do not recommend battling a wild baryonyx with a tamed baryonyx in the water. They will get into a stun battle and the one that randomly strikes first each time will win.
Baryonyx
The Baryonyx is a large crocodile-like predator. While it might lack in attack power, its ability to swim extremtly fast makes it a fierce opponent — especially with its ability to travel on both land and in water.

Player-written tips for taming, using, and fighting the Baryonyx in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
Baryonyx is to be one of the easier to tame carnivores, looking into the fact that they are not immune to normal bolas.
Can be carried with argent on mobile! Spread the word
Make 2 bear traps, just incase the Bary excape!!!!!

Get tranquilizer arrows then shoot it with a friend and then just give it narco berries then wait. Also feed fish only or kibble.
Please note that the normal bear trap does not work from when I tried to tame a barynyonx, if I’m mistaken please let me know.
Do not tame a low level baryonyx for caves
Very easy tame. Just stand on a rock and shoot a few darts and they’ll be out quick .
On mobile you can still bola them
Can Be carried on agar in mobile I just did that
Good for certain caves as long as they have good health and damage
Trap ‘em in a wood house thing and while they’re attacking the walls shoot them with tranq arrows/ whatever else can be used. Bola them up to make the process less risky
baryonx spin to stun in thing in wata
I ussualy use them on caves because they are really fast and they are one of the strongest creatures you can fit in a cave entrance
Stand on a rock where they can not reach you or a cliff and tranq them out! Make sure you are not too near the deep waters so you don’t have to venture out there to keep an eye on the tame

I’ve always viewed the baryonyx as a far more agile and flexible alternative to the carnotaurus. The prime use that I have the baryonyx for disposal is cave spelunking (specifically at the lava cave). Their ability to jump, instantly harvest corpses…

I’ve always viewed the baryonyx as a far more agile and flexible alternative to the carnotaurus. The prime use that I have the baryonyx for disposal is cave spelunking (specifically at the lava cave). Their ability to jump, instantly harvest corpses after kills, and semi-decent health make for a quick take-artifact-and-leave mission. Unfortunately, I have lost many lives within that cave for my experiments and chitin trips. There are some stories that will be posted soon in the story section.
very easy to tame its good for travelling and caves and can take a rex. I use my baryonx everywhere and never have to fear anything. its also a very good water mount since it can deal with ALMOST everything.
You can find these around the swamp.they aren't extremely common, but they also aren't extremely rare.
They are very common in the rivers of the southern islets. Beware, they are fast.
