When your growing up theses guys they must eat fish meat when they reach adolescence! They will start to starve if they don't get it!!

Spino + Raptor = Baryonyx. faster than the raptor on land and faster than the spino in water... cool dinosaur

Very useful creature, I knocked out three argies a Rex, and an archaeopteryx while on its back on the mountains by the redwoods, I also killed a Rex with it (it is only level 38) and 15-20 raptors and sabertoothes within probably 5-10 minutes. If you are wondering why I knocked out three argies read my depressing tips under newest, Argentavis. My Baryonx is my best tame on this profile. FYI if you want to tame a Rex make sure you kill any Dino’s it aggros first. A deodicoris (I know I misspelled it) killed my knocked out Rex.

I think these are so underrated.

When I started playing ARK as a solo PVP player I always manage to survive by living hidden in the swamps and having tames and just the natural danger of the swamp for defense rather than relying on turrets. I'll take a swarm of well bred dimorphidons over turrets any day.

Barrys were always by far the most dangerous thing I would encounter in the swamps. A lower level wild tame is reliable. A high level wild tame is nasty but once you can get a well-bred imprinted one they can handle anything. After owning Barrys for years I finally tamed my first Rex to see what the hype was about. I was never really a fan of them due to their size but this was a Max level Tek rex. I couldn't resist. It was cool looking but I was honestly extremely disappointed in its performance. I was talking about this on the server and someone was convinced it was because it wasn't bred and imprinted. They gave me an egg from their rexes that had multiple generations of attack mutations. I fully imprinted it. Was still disappointed. Yes it has higher natural Health than a Barry but thats it. Barry kills way faster. I think it has something to do with the attack speed. Rexs are also big clunky and slow. Barry is an amphibious ATV that's stronger than large tames yet as fast and maneuverable as small tames. Small enough for caves. Can do both dry and aquatic caves. They also heal unbelievably fast while killing fish. You don't need to sit there and force feed them meat forever after they lose a few thousand health.

I've killed both alpha rexs and alpha squid with them. No other creature in the game can do that. People think I'm lying when I tell them this saying that I probably couldn't even kill an alpha carno with one.

I think many players are too obsessed with what streamers or YouTube have told them are the best creatures in the game. Or maybe just too obsessed with stats. Think outside the box. You'll be amazed at how powerful and versatile these are.

Excellent tame for living on a boat due to it's ability to breathe underwater. Will harvest hundreds of raw fish meat whilst defending you from other underwater nasties. My Bary lvl 64, named Ratchet, killed in excess of 35 Megs before meeting his match with a lvl 40 Alpha Meg whilst defending our house boat. A salute to all your hard work old friend, you shall be avenged.

Everything you need to know:

(1) they will dismount you on certain creatures

(2) they can be picked up my argentavis.

(3) they eat raw fish meat

(4) mostly in swamps or shallow areas with fish

Question:

If they eat fish, why do they eat me………

Thanks for reading my tip.

these are great in caves, though they have 1 weakness: their torpor drains EXTREMELY slowly. bring stimulants in case you get mobbed by snakes bc ur bary is gonna take a long time to wake up on its own

I am very depressed to learn that the saddle is at level 49. I tamed it at level 21 and am currently at 30. (This is my second profile I am level 70 or so in ASE mobile). This is not the first Dino that I am upset at the saddle level… the pterranadon I tamed at level 10 carno I tamed while I was level 25.

Everyone keeps saying that this Dino is the ultimate cave Dino, aquatic Dino, amphibious Dino and so on. I agree, but what they do not tell you, maybe because they do not know, is that this is the best Dino to help you tame creatures. How are they the best? You can shoot off their back. They can outrun almost any Dino so if you need to hit multiple tranqs it is useful (I tamed a Bronto with tranq arrows riding one) and if worse comes to worse, you can probably kill the creature you are trying to tame. Also any creature that is either faster than it or stronger than it you can escape from by swimming. One last tip, do not try to tame a gigantosaurus with one unless its movement speed is high because those are only found far from water.

These guys are the absolute best! I tamed a max lvl 150 baryonyx and bred it with my lvl 152 baryonyx and got an OP, 78% imprinted baryonyx. Her name is Moon. As of right now she is lvl 234, with 8,500 hp, 700% melee damage, and 135 movement speed. She can obliterate almost any Dino on land and sea, including rexes and spinos. Also, if you get a high level, you get of added stats per level up, and they level up insanely fast. They are the absolute BEST cave mount IMO (except for the Northwest cave, otherwise known as the cave of the sky lord, because it can not fit in the entrance, like all other cave mounts), because their long neck allows you to reach the flying dangers of the cave and it protects you from the arthroplura’s spit balls. That combined with their attack speed and amazing damage output makes it my favorite cave mount. Just watch out in the lava cave, because you can easily get pushed off into the lava or fall in the lava due to a bad jump. I am about to try out the cave of the strong, but I have no doubt in my mind that I will demolish it. It has one attack on land, which is his bite attack, along with an option to make it roar, but like the spino’s roar this does nothing. On water they have their bite attack and a tail spin that stuns nearby dinos(use button that you use to jump on land to use tail spin). On top of that, they can jump, which makes it a good travel mount, and once again, an amazing cave mount. This and the spino are my two favorite dinos as of right now, and if you are debating about getting one of these, GET ONE RIGHT NOW.

Sorry for the long rant
