What is a baryonyx used for? baryonyx battling strategies in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
Great mount to get to and from hidden sea cave bases, they have enough health and the stun ability to fend of hungry megalodons, fast enough to get away from the nastier stuff like mosas and plesis if levelled a bit, no oxygen(idunno maybe they have gills or something), can get their favourite food source on the journey(fish), they also have decent health and damage, good tame if you like an aquatic lifestyle also equally good if you're just going down into the sea for resources.
These odd-looking little beasts are in fact fearsome sharkysaurs
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.
Almost every caves, strong creatures can't follow with you. Even some caves need to go underwater to get useful resorces or trophy and dossier and again, most creatures that you are familiar usually are not good at diving and swiming. If they are good at diving and swiming, they are too weak to travel caves and underwater's creatures.
But after baryonyx released, no worries. It will keep your safe and help combat from almost every normal cave's creatures(high lvl megalosaurus will tough at night times, but it is weak at day times and still your bary can tanking few sec if you spend points on health for most.), even it can dive into the water endlessly if you have preparation about oxygen, coldness or scuba and still it will help help your combat from underwater's creatures.
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 now have 5 berys guarding my pvp house boat in mobile they can wipe anything that swims super easy and they are so underrated 4 caves and mine can easy kill rexes when I need 2 the tail spin will nock u off any water dino and sometimes on land they can knock u off a raptor or something similar that being said they are easy 2 ko so be wary about that in pvp otherwise they are pretty much unstable If I have a max imprint currently mine are only lv 150 throu 160 ish and they have killed like 500 mantas and count less meg they will not attack the itchy as long as they don't get to close

One of the bext fighters in the game. I swear to god, I had one that took on two trikes, 4 dilos and a pack of raptors. He came out with 600 out of 750 health. Fought a Theri with him and still came out on top. With all the stories about them just killing underwater, don’t think you’re safe on land.
Nobody is.
