Tips & Strategies
Do NOT underestimate these guys. They are insanely fast and agile. I have tamed a Rex, Spino, and Theri, with 137% movement speed, and yet these still managed to kill me with full Flak armor. If you are trying to tranq them, don’t do it at even remotely close range or they will likely wreck you. My Theri, Machete, was left on passive so I could tame them without him going apeshit and killing them- turns out I was gonna need him on neutral cause I was NOT making it out of that alive because I’m dumb. I got him onto neutral pretty quickly, but not soon enough, so I was annihilated. Don’t be me, be smart. 😂
More Baryonyx Encountering Tips
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 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.
Baryonyx, despite their raptorlike legs, cannot be bola’d. Don’t learn this the hard way.
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.
These can spawn in rivers if your wanting a more likely chance to find some go to the swamp these are not really common to spawn in rivers I played ark for a long time and i have not seen a lot of these in rivers a lot of times
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 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 🤔🤔
Can be carried by an Argie...
Only eats fish? This thing just ate a trike.
