What are tips for baryonyx? Tips and strategies for baryonyx in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
This isn’t really a tip but one was camping in the water when I was level 5 and it 1 shot me next time I come level 8 still one shot me next time I come theres 2 so I don’t go over to them cuz I’ve learned that they 1 shot me next time I come lvl 11 or something there’s none but there’s one next to my base in the water I might tame it I’m lvl 16 or 17 now
Just tamed one of these guys, he is really good and I recommend taming one, mid game tame, I don’t have saddle for him yet but he protected me from diloposaurus
These are what I use to gather fish meat, which is useful since they, amongst other things such as otters, only eat fish meat. It’s a must have when breeding them and other fish eating dinos. Simply swim off shore, stun any megs/mantas, eat them as they sit there helplessly, rinse and repeat.
Use crossbow and find a ledge but i dare you to 1v1 with fists (i did it after43 punches hp 10 from 245)
You caught it on bola and knock it with sling shot.
Carful when encountering them in the water their stun attack will end your life in minutes
Everything you need to know about Baryonyx
They have a tail spin stun locking attack that only works when the Baryonyx is swimming
They are on every map except for Scorched Earth
They can only be picked up by a wyvern or quetzal
They are way better in the water than on land
Theres no reason not to tame a Bary, they are extremely usefull, from caving, to water taming and exploring, and just general traveling. They are very fast on land, being able to outrun raptors, carnos, even allos. When it comes to underwater capability, its got decent speed, being able to outrun all surface level water dinos, and being able to stun creatures as big as and smaller than a megalodon.
The only downside to the Baryonyx is its taming food, wich can be pretty annoying to find, unless youve got access to plenty of its kibble, wich comes from a pretty underused dino.
I encountered one earlier I tried to tame it but it killed me so I tried to kill it I was successful but it killed my dilo then I checked what food to use for tame
I was able to tame one in my first day with trank bow. It did kill me about 5 times but I still got it :) It is first time playing after a long rage quit, I have about 15-20 hours ont he game in total.
I would not recommend using bear traps. They only immobilize it for about thirty seconds. JUST STOP BEING LAZY AND BUILD A TRAP!!!!
Someone said you can't Bola these. I just bola one and knocked it out. I play mobile so it may only work on that platform
Get at least 5 dilos and shoot it with something and your dilos will do all the work for you
A bunch of fish meat for the tame . If there near the swamp try to lead them out . Great tame . You get 10 fish meat form the commen fish.
