They are best cave dinosaur better than any other
Baryonyx
The Baryonyx is a large crocodile-like predator. While it might lack in attack power, its ability to swim extremtly fast makes it a fierce opponent — especially with its ability to travel on both land and in water.

What ARK players use the Baryonyx for, and how to get the most out of it in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
PERFECT FOR AN ARMY!!! I am starting mine with Jericho (me) and Kalaya (my crush’s name🤫) and they have a son. This is where it begins😈
Step 1) Ride Baryonyx
Step 2) Find 3-4 survivor notes back to back
Step 3) Find and kill alpha megalodon
Step 4) Rocket through levels at break-neck pace
Me and my best bary where able to complete the caverns of the lost faith without much trouble, so yeah, you can use them to pass through the sea caves (not only the surface caves), just be careful with tusos and cnidarias, also it has to be a good bary
Incredible for gathering fish meat, which is the only thing they will eat. They're really good in the water and on land. I'm starting my baryonyx squad for underwater caves
They are great cave runners, They can take on almost any thing in the water.
Best all around mount ever.If you pump damage this thing is a beast both on land and underwater with its stun attack
Haven’t tried but could be great for taming a big turtle
Stun move in water does not trigger aggro debuff from ammonite and thus it can be used to obtain bile to make tons of antidotes. Instead of using a Tuso for a few hours fighting off Mosas, Cnidaria, and Electrophorus, you can ignore it all and use a Bary for 15 minutes to…
Stun move in water does not trigger aggro debuff from ammonite and thus it can be used to obtain bile to make tons of antidotes. Instead of using a Tuso for a few hours fighting off Mosas, Cnidaria, and Electrophorus, you can ignore it all and use a Bary for 15 minutes to collect enough bile for 200 antidotes! Helpful if in a large tribe.
These guys are easily the best cave mount. With a lot of melee and health they are almost unstoppable.
So sad this can’t stun megs and piranhas on mobile.
Based on my experience, this guys can face tank the athro's spit attack(when angled properly), meaning they wont be able to hit and destroy your armor when you on the back of this beast
Jack of all trades. Fast on land and in water. Better manuverabilty than larger mounts. Surprisingly powerful. A well bred barry can hold its own against anything on land or in the water.
They are REALLY good for doing caves and they can get a TON of fish meat really easy.
Note that only fish meat can give them a health boost. Tried feeding mine normal meat but she wouldn’t gain health from it.
These guys can’t swim straight up or down, they go up at in incline, so watch your oxygen stat when riding into deep ocean, it will take longer to surface. Whirlpool attack is good tho, and also makes a great name
Must have for PvP. I play single player, and was out hunting on my new spino. I attacked one and it spun me off my spino. Therefore, lure poeple to water and knock them off any mount. Haven't tested with my Rex or brontos yet, and won't.
Get the baryonyx at a high level and farm meat
AWESOME mount, can take down carnos, raptors, therizinos, megalodons,
Sarcos,titanoboas and any underwater creatures, has no oxygen,gets
LOADS of fish meat and prime fish meat,best swamp mount and finally
Improve its health to about 3k and it can take down almost…

When taming its pretty easy because it gets affected by bolas.
A great first tame!
My friend and I were in the cave in dead island, I rode a baryonyx, he had a dire bear. We cooked the cave with our tames level 50-70. My favorite Dino because of its versatility. It traverses that cave very easy, anger in and out with no problem especially with its jump. By…

It traverses that cave very easy, anger in and out with no problem especially with its jump. By far my go to because of how good it is in land water and caves.
