At least what I’ve found, Baryonyx CAN be carried by the Argy in OLD ark mobile :D (this is because of a drag weight update around 2024/2025 that newer versions like ASA was changed to not be carried by a Argy, but since old mobile is based on pc/console BEFORE said update, hope this helps, if anyone else still plays old mobile :l)

Bola's work on these, can tame anywhere even in water, prime fish meat is best so take a fishing rod and all the necessary equipment needed, easy tame

Baryonyx eat fish, so feed them raw fish when you knock them out, but I think they eat raw prime fish too, because other fish-eating knockout takes I’ve tamed eat fish too. They are very fast and swim like speed boats that got hyped, and they are small enough to fight through small entrances. But luckily they are strong so they can fight and bite lots of big ol’ dinos (absolutely massive ones not included). Baryonyx good, man. They also have an option to toggle “seek fish on low health”. To me that sounds like the cyborgs??? Keep it up ARK, ur doing great!!!

Honestly this is the Best tame i've ever had.i currently have 3 rex.spino tapejara and argy. But i have to say this this guy is the best dino ark ever made. hands down.mine could outrun a raptor on land.almost megapiranha on water..also this medium shaped dino helped me overcome my fear for caves.whether its artho or titanboa. Due to its high torpor enduring and decent weight and melee damage. Cave huntings were easier for me.. Until i lost him on by mistakely jumping into Lava In LAVA CAVE. Will miss u alot Barry Allen.

TIP:I DONT CARE IF U R ON EARLY OR MID GAME.TAMING THIS BEAST IS A MUST.JUST REMEMBER THEY ONLY EAT FISH SO AFTER KNOCKING HIM OUT GO TO THE NEAREST RIVER TO FETCH SOME FISH MEAT.

Absolute must have game for beginners like me. One killed my para, so I reloaded the save and headed over with some tranq arrows and fish meat. Perched on a rock and he was out fast. Starve tamed and it was pretty easy. Only difficulty was keeping the dilos away. Afterwards I was thinking it’d be just another average beginner tame- but it wasnt. Toxin, my bary, is a real trooper. I once took our houseboat into the swamps, just messin around. He took out three sarcos and another bary. Later took on a meg and three mantas at once. Seriously, best thing ever.

Thinking of breeding these guys into the ultimate cave running monster, for however long I've played ark now is the only time I've really focused on this guy. Tamed a level 120 one plus the taming bonus up to 140, used entry dexes to level it up faster now at level 160, after killing 3 alpha megalodons by just stun locking them and killing em slowly then leveled up it's attack and health before focusing on speed.

Perfect for clearing caves. He's small enough to ride in and strong enough not to die quickly

Warning do not approach, they are faster, stronger, and I’m positive that they can smell your fear, don’t go in the water with one unless it’s yours

The spin move can stun Alpha Megalodons. Makes for a trivial fight. Just watch out for jellyfish. RIP Klaptrap.......

This animal is a fantastic mount in caves; if its health is low, it can regain it extremely quickly by entering the water and killing some fish. It only eats fish meat, can live underwater, and fits into most caves.

Normally found roaming the swamps,watch your back as it will always have gator friends or snake buddy's near by

Please please PLEASE make a trap for these guys. They are hella fast and can run away before you can shoot them again

These dudes are beasts in the south west cave. I cleared the whole cave with one saddled level 28 Bary.

If you're thirsty , don't have a Water Container with you? See a Baryonyx in the River next to you?

RATHER DIE OFDEHYDRATION THAN DRINKING OUT OF THIS KILLER WATER!

Mines name is lulu and she’s one of my best Dino’s. They may be small but their a beast on land and in water. Don’t underestimate the bary. Easily one of my favourite Dino’s and one of the best cave mounts👍

When I first tamed a Baryonyx I found it very helpful to build a trap with a bait dinosaur inside (something like a low level para). Once you get out of the way, it will aggro to the bait and run into the trap. I tranq’d it before the para died, which was impressive because the para was lvl 10.

They usually spawn at low level... DO NOT try to pick them up from the water!!! They will kill you and your mount. Wait until they come op for land

In ark mobile these things can be bola.

Can no longer be lifted by an argy be careful if you try they could stun you off and kill you

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.
