I know you can set up traps, but so far I've had the best results by just shooting it in the face with tranq darts; don't bother running/kiting it though, it's rather fast so just bring armour and make sure to eat.. seriously keep eating, your gonna need the health bonus if its a high lvl.
Ps: currently breeding mine, they all eat fishmeat! Even th babies, recommend having an extra bary on aggro by a lake! Good luck taming and/or breeding these weird little creatures!
There literally blind so just crouch
Always fight them on land and if your a newb lure them to a pair of trikes or something more dangerous.
Baryonixes are great for caves.I recently farmed artifact of the hunter's cave with a lvl 40 on easy mode. It has about 1500 health and was able to kill arthroes and tens of areaneos at once.I got about 30 stacks of meat,1100 chitin and 150 hide and also lots of metal picks hatchets and arrows(normal and tranq) and the artifact itself(which I tributed and got a soothing balm) from the cave.It also leveled up two times.
If you want tranq arrows don't waste your narcotics and kill areaneos in caves with this ultimate cave mount
The stun attack on these makes them absolute BEASTS in the water!! Your biggest concern will be being over-encumbered with the bodies of all your victims.
How to tame barys
One: get ten fish meat and one smooting balm (if you play ark mobile)
two: find bary on an river pr swamp. I going to da river cuz swamps are full of titanaboas and kapros and get a bear trap
three: find a barry and put da trap and feed it And thats how to tame barry EZ hope it helps you tame da spineless spino
In terms of danger, these guys are about as much of a threat as carnos. They're similarly sized, and can be avoided almost the same way. Just keep out of water near a baryonyx, as they're much faster when swimming.
I was in a sever and I saw a bary working with a swarm of mega piranhas— don’t ever get near a swarm with a bary or you’ll die and u can leave crying for ur mosa
Good for taking out alpha megs because of stun move
It can king of take anything on in the water.
You can KO it in the water, it will not drown. I tranqed it on a rock with it in the water, but it couldn't drown.
My suggestion for easily taming these guys:
Build a wall of wood pillars that look like a [ from above, then place 3 bear traps (or a rock ledge if it’s nearby) in front of yourself, tranq it so it runs into the bear traps slowing it and giving you a few bonus hits. When it runs make sure the pillars are directly behind it, the edges going out will make sure that it doesn’t just go around the wall. After it’s running just enjoy your tame. Hope you enjoyed, Camo270
If on mobile make sure you do the hunter cave for 10x soothing balm for EVERY TAME. It will make the taming process a few minutes on every Dino.
1 make a small stone house with windows.
2 shoot bary
3 run to house
4 shoot through window
5 keep shooting until it starts running away and shortly after it will be knocked out
6 feed it fish and narcotics
DO NOT belive other tips and google you CANNOT Bola the baryonyx you will just get your self killed
This is for my low level noobs, use 3 wooden billboards and place 2 in a arrow shape, agro it and run around the side effectively trapping it then get a bit closer and place the last one making a triangle, then trank quickly, I managed to knock a 140 with just prim gear and standerd arrows before it could break out
up for the noobs
