Taming & KO Tips
How do I tame a baryonyx? Tips and strategies on taming and knocking out a baryonyx.
How to tame a baryonyx!
1. Find a baryonyx (they’re found near and in swaps)
2. Make a trap/make bolas (you could also use an argy to take the bary to a trap or somewhere else more safer)
3. Trap or bola the baryonyx
4. Knock it out! (I used my bow with 353 damage and I used about 20 tranq arrows on a 270 baryonyx)
5. Use a smoothing balm if you want I’ll make the process faster! ( you can get smoothing balms by running caves and turning in the artifact!)
6. Feed the bary prime fish meat! ( get a sickle and kill a lot of sabertooth salmons and harvest them with the sickle!)
7. Wait for your new baryonyx to tame!
FYI I play on mobile!! Hope this helped!
To kill just get its attention then run to a local stego or trike and then they kill it unless it moves them into water but easy
If you are playing ark mobile or switch the bary did not get his change and you can still pick it up whit an argy and bola it
To the people who say bola does not work ,I tested it and it works on mobile
Don't try to grab a wild one out of the water...
Don't fight jellyfish or you and your tame may perish
1. Bola or put down a bear trap and get it stuck
2. Put 4 fence foundations down and then 4 doorways or walls around the Barry
3. Shoot it full or tranq darts (in the head with a crossbow and arrows works good if you don’t have a gun and darts)
It worked for me and a lvl 280 Barry hope this helps!
I tamed one very easily near my base i had to kill a rex near it but mainly im saying this to let you know 1: Its fairly easy to knock out/tame 2: its torpo goes down slow so you probaly wont need any narcotics but still bring some in case and 3: its an amazing dino for cave of the south in my opinion its just like my raptor by better by x2 lastly 4: **THIS GOES FOR ALL DINO YOU TAME kill any other dinos that might hit your tame or else it will mess up the tame** Thanks for reading my tip byee!!-
By far best dino to tame for deep sea exploration and farming. He's incredibly fast on land, out running taptors, carnos, theriz, etc. His swim speed in water is just as good, with megalodons crumpling to his stun and bite. Great stamina and offense, and you can stay away from base for days with this helpful guy.
Bringing a simple raft cage to the swamp should allow you to easily trap and transport this guy to an appropriate area to knockout and tame.
For some reason (bug?) you can’t be damaged while driving the raft, even when this guy is standing on top of you! (PC)
Do not tame a low level baryonyx for caves
When I fed it regular fish the taming effectiveness went down every time it ate
Taming these guys are easy and if on medium level i recommend taming a 100+lvl baryonyx for caves and stuff. Very low attack damage don't forget to invrease that
U can find them near swamps and I have a beautiful green and black so I named him antisepticeye
I've just tamed one, LV 30, with just a club (yes, I died a countless times 😅😅),but it was next my base, and I am lv5, what should I do ?
Ps where is my médaille 😅😅😅
To all the people saying climb on a rock and shoot it with tranq arrows let me tell you all you need is bola and some tranqs. Then you should be all set.
You just need a bola and about 10 tranq arrows to tame a low level one!
they only eat fish when tamed. Mine lost almost all his hunger before i figured this out.
When taming these guys I recommend a longneck but you can tame with a crossbow. Remember count to five after every shot so the torpor can really sink in. By the way their food drains really fast so taming them will be easy Peasy. The only hard part is that they spawn in the swamp.

For the people who are new to this dinosaur
It is knockout tame , to tame them you need raw fish meat or raw prime fish meat
It’s fast in the water and if fully submerged it can do a stun attack on small and medium sized creatures
An easy way to tame and my favorite is make a 2 wide and 4 long STONE trap with 2 high stone doorframes all around with wooden ramps on one side
Simply lure in and it can’t escape.
This is how I tamed my first one and I hope this was helpful, safe tame’s !😊
