Midgame Mvp. amazing for caves, swimming, walking, and literally anything else. you can find them in swamps, tranqulise them and use fish, meat wont work. Happy taming and have an amazing day.
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.
When going to caves, bring a Baryonyx because they can fit in most caves and they good damage and stuns creatures.
If your exploring the central cave and get low hp from all the insects and titanoboas and megalosauruses, you can go to the pond near the artifact and kill a whole swarm of piranhas to regain hp.
This Creature is amazing and when ever it kills something it harvests the body immediately. I recommend taming this.
Ounce tamed they only eat fish meat(I almost lost one because I didn't know) but collect plenty also they keep the stun attack and work well with kapros
Best for starting ocean adventures.
A high lvl one is great for the artifact of the pack cave.
these guys are super OP. they can go anywhere and take on anything. i swear. u don’t need any other dino 😭
Very Good dino for land and water!
These guys are caving BEASTS, they will fit in most caves and wreck everything in their path, their health regens extremely fast when eating fish, and their damage and health are basically unmatched.
You can now carry it with Argy im not sure about Wild but a tamed barry can be carried by argy.
This has to be one of my 10 favorite dinos that I've used. It has decent damage and okay health, and its also super fast, and it's stamina is really not that bad, and it has that stun attack underwater. This makes it a versatile all-around mount capable of fighting…

Great for caving and perfect for clearing large amounts of aquatic creatures, like the mantas that constantly tail a basi
Taming these guys is worth it, because if you can get 2,breed them, get that 100% imprint, then take it out for a spin to get xp, then you can get a power house. This was the case for me, to this day she is my favorite mount, she can kill alpha rexs if done strategically,she…

This was the case for me, to this day she is my favorite mount, she can kill alpha rexs if done strategically,she can almost any thing in the ocean, and can plow through caves and she's only level 82. Definitely get one of these.
These guys are best for running caves But not strong cave or skylord and there tanks and are strong
This guy is great for early-ish game. He doesnt take to much trancs and he's super strong. His torpidity is kiterally amazing and hes saved me countless times. Hes super fast and has good stamina and good against other water/swamp creatures. He can also stun enemies underwater
If a allo, spino, and raptor all had a baby this is what that monstrosity would be.
This and the thylacoleo are the two best caving creatures so you shouldn't overlook it. Just tame it, but get a high level
List of underrated creatures
Baryonyx
Kaprosuchus
Thorny Dragon
