What is a baryonyx used for? baryonyx battling strategies in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
Great for cave runs. Can shoot of the back of them. Stun attack, bite attack, swim great and run great. Remember no need to sprint jump in caves, just walk forward and jump. It has a long jump. Eats fish very important. If you Dino leash it in water with fish can be set to find fish by itself
The Ultimate Guide to Baryonyx
They are found on The Island, The Center, Ragnarok, Extinction, Valguero, Genesis Part 1, Crystal Isles, Genesis Part 2, Lost Island, and Fjordur
There is also an Aberrant Baryonyx that can be found on Aberration, Valguero, and Crystal Isles
They can be picked up by a Karkinos, Queztal, or a Wyvern
They are very fast and strong on both land and water and can do a tail spin stun attack while they are swimming
They are useful on The Island, Aberration, Genesis Part 1, and any Non-Story maps (u should tame an Aberrant Baryonyx if u are playing on Valguero or Crystal Isles)
Everyone keeps saying that this Dino is the ultimate cave Dino, aquatic Dino, amphibious Dino and so on. I agree, but what they do not tell you, maybe because they do not know, is that this is the best Dino to help you tame creatures. How are they the best? You can shoot off their back. They can outrun almost any Dino so if you need to hit multiple tranqs it is useful (I tamed a Bronto with tranq arrows riding one) and if worse comes to worse, you can probably kill the creature you are trying to tame. Also any creature that is either faster than it or stronger than it you can escape from by swimming. One last tip, do not try to tame a gigantosaurus with one unless its movement speed is high because those are only found far from water.
If you’re new to the deep sea, this thing is your best friend. They’re fast, have no oxygen bar, and have a stun attack that can stun the majority of aquatic (and land) creatures. (Keep in mind you can only do the stun in water.) You can also shoot off of the back of them while underwater, making them really helpful in taming deep sea creatures.
Tamed one of these guys recently, they are a prime meat farm , just take one to the swamps and demolish everything in your vision , you'll get LOADS of prime meat , set up an industrial grill or if you are low level a campfire nearby and enjoy your prime meat , really helpful for taming , ☝️
