I tamed this thing very recently and it was absolutely worth it. Just make sure to use a sickle to get prime meat from the sabertooth salmons so you can tame it faster. Nothing should bother you while your taming except for maybe a Carno/sabertooth or two (if you have an above level 100 tank dino you should be fine). Once it’s tamed it will be a fast, tanky beast that can breath underwater and on land!

I don’t know if it’s because I’m on mobile or what but whenever I use a sickle on a saber samon I don’t get prime fish meat I would really appreciate if someone could tell me the reason, thank you

I dont recommend shooting this guy without a trap cuz it runs fast and since it spawns close in the swamp it May run inside it and he May dissapear in all the water and trees make a 4 by 4 its better if its with rock it dmgs wood and make the ramp with wood if u like too and then Just tranq it out oh and one thing it only eats fish in the taming when its tamed it can eat normal Meat

Just remember that baryonyx can stun u in water

YOU CAN BOLA THEM ON MOBILE!? Also great for caves.

I feel like they should have the same buff as a sloth when killing sea creatures instead of bugs cus aggro to fishy.

I got a 50 in wild, and leveled HP to 200. With a primitive saddle and proper maneuverability, I knocked out a lv 95 terror bird, a lv 115 terror bird, a lv 100 megatherium, a lv 50 rex, and a lv 60 rex. Absolutely outstanding tame for taming with rider weaponry, can chase down most fleeing tames (did not test with yutyrannus because it sounds like a bad idea). My crossbow has about 180 damage, and it can fit through pillars to trap large carnivores, though it’s agile enough to avoid Dinos and strong enough to take a few hits. (Don’t try with giga, and do not follow other bary into water. They’re scared of yutys I think, and stealing wyvern eggs should not be attempted. May be good for Deinonychus eggs since it can’t be latched onto.)

Sorry, just did this same thing but forgot stuff

Controls on switch!

L2 in water: spin

R2: bite

Right stick push down: roar

Last: kapro

Next: paraceratherium

Those bastards can B-Hop! Just jump at the right timings and they'll break the sound barrier in no time! (at least on PS4)

If your planning on taming a high level, over level 100,

Bring at least 75 or more depending on what level above 100. DO NOT shoot these Dino’s from a rock. Barry’s are fast as heck and they get away easily. You can bola them but they’re gonna break out before you knock it out. If it is a high level like over 100 like I was talking about earlier, make a trap with doorframes and the ramp if you don’t want it to get away.

Has anyone experienced this before.

It’s not all day and do nothing and all the sudden all your creatures that eat fish go in the river and start going on a killing rampage for no reason at all.

They were all on full Hunger and I did not put them on aggressive.

Only asking this because this happened to me.

My spino, barry and sarco almost killed themselves by jellyfish.

If you know the answer please tell me🙂

. Water king( my spino ) kingfisher ( my barry ) and creekadile ( my sarco)

Also I’m on mobile

If you don't have the meanings to tame one of these WALK AWAY, they are faster than an iguanodon in land and if they stun you in the water is a certain death.

They are one of the best tames. It’s also easy to tame one too!

1: They can jump. It is faster than walking and can be used to escape in a emergency.

2: Health-Pools: You might not get one that has health above 2000 but if you tame one, then upgrade, you might be able to have one above 4000 health!

3: Aquatic Carnotaurs: They swim surprisingly fast (Because it was a relative of Spinosaurus. Suchomimus is also a relative.)

4: They are pretty fast. They go as fast as raptors and if you pump weight and speed, you get a strong, high-damage, aquatic travel mount.

5: They are easy to tame. Just locate one, kill off any carnivore, then use the large bear trap and tranq arrows to knock it out. It only eats fish meat.

6: Fisher-dinos: Like the Spinosaurus, it eats a lot of fish and actually gain health from them so you won’t have to wait a eternity for them to be max health.

7: Stamina is important. It controls how much time you have to run and how much time you have to attack. Guess what the Baryonyx has?

8: They have a stun attack that stuns and deals damage to enemies nearby.

9: They do large amounts of damage and if you upgrade damage a lot, then you can 1-shot Dilophosaurs.

A 100% must get tame especially in packs. Tame it now!

I used my first large bear trap on my a bary and it didn’t trap it but I was fine on health just ran around shooting tranqs with my new crossbow and then all of a sudden it got trapped in the bear trap. Thank goodness I didn’t step on it first! I don’t know why that happened.

The scene of a big "fish" approaching fast made ARK a horror game in just 0.5 second.

That's no enough time for accept the coming of DEATH.

Definitely recommend it is amazing for taming underwater dinosaurs that are affected by its stun and are over all is a really swimmer and can travel semi-fast on land only down side is that it is a piscivore which means you can only eat fish but over all a very recommended tame!!!!!

i know this isn't a tip, more of a question but can megalosaurus actually pick up baryonyx?

If you see a baryonyx run ofcorse he eat fish but when he sees you he will drop that dite and eat you

Easy to tame and very good for a starter tame. Simply bola it and hit it with a club. Be advised if it’s a high level it might break out of bola. These guys need fish meat, they’re picky. Totally worth taming can probably take out a trike, my two level twenties killed four trikes in one go, and I was playing on normal.
