How do I kill a baryonyx? baryonyx battling strategies in ARK: Survival Evolved.
Okay, so this thing eats any fish meat... then why does it eat me?
Dont fight it in the water unless you enjoy being stun locked and drowning to death.
When simply crossing a river, a lvl 85 killed me and my 9 raptors. I was coming back from hunting with this raptor pack, shredding paracers, therizinosaurs, and other very strong creatures. All it took was one bary in water to just stun lock all 9 of them to death, and they couldn’t fight back. I respawned and managed to kill the bary on land with my Iguanadon, a quick and easy fight, took it out in a few hits.. The difference between land and water with these guys is insane. That water stun is no joke😭😭😭 I can’t even be mad, but Rest in Peace to Scamp, Atronach, Pyro, Smiley, Hectic, Raptor, Raptor, Raptor, and Raptor.
Lost 6 raptors to a Baryonyx stun in the shallow end of a river, a and a swathe of piranhas.
RIP to Mars, Mercury, Io, Venus, Neptune, and Pluto.
NEVER and I mean NEVER FIGHT IN WATER. They will stun and all you can do is wait as you see this thing kill your lv 132 triceratops. That has killed rexs. Rip Trixie the triceratops Jan 2020- Mar 2020.
Can be carried by an Argie...
Can we talk about the fact that I just saw one of these guys kill and eat a spino of the same level both at full health before the fight 🤔🤔
Only eats fish? This thing just ate a trike.
2 Baryonyx died during the aquatic war at solo player. One was killed by a Baryonyx while the dead bodies of Megapirhana, 2 Kaprosuchus, and 1 Sarcosuchus float around. The other one was killed by another Baryonyx stunning my Baryonyx in the water and then adding some extras by attracting 3 Cnidaria. A memory that remains in my head.
*0 remain.
It’s too sad. 💔 😢
1 like = 1 Baryonyx remains.
Baryonyx, despite their raptorlike legs, cannot be bola’d. Don’t learn this the hard way.
So, I began playing Ark, and happened to build a base right next to where a Baryonyx lived. My friend was gathering things from the other side of the river, and led one right to the base. It had been like a Jaws movie for the next few days. Well, I have formed a plan to get rid of it. Wish me luck!
They love dancing water ballet with you. What a killer twirl.
ME:AHHH BARYONX WAIT I HAVE A SWORD
Baryonyx:FULL SUSANOO
ME:GETS CONTINUOUSLY STUNNED AND DIES
Ironic that's the same bary I tamed and got killed by before it's crazy 😂
Plz watch out for stun tail swing when in water with it.
Pro tip: if you cant find these guys, kill everything in the swamp or river. Creatures belonging to the same biome share "spawn slots".
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
I just ran into this guy while getting water I had my iguanodon with me so as soon as it saw me I ran on quad mode and it matched my speed so they are very fast even on land. So just run and pray to the ark gods that it would rather eat a tickle chicken.
One is surrounding my area where I tame parasaurs, trikes, carbonemyses, diliphosauruses, igunadons, and pteranodons. My plane is to bola it, then kill or tame it. The baryonyx is near water.. should I do this.. I could lose my dinosaur(s). I’m scared
Everything you need to know about Baryonyx (reissue)
They don’t have an O2 stat
They have a tail spin stun lock attack when the Baryonyx is swimming
They can be picked up by a Wyvern,Quetzal,Karkinos,and Tusoteuthis
They are on every map except Scorched Earth
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!
