Steal a bro to egg and it shall steal your soul .
These keep killing my pteranodons, I lost two so far to them. The first was an accident but I guess the second was kind of my fault.
if your under level 40, don’t pick up one of these guys eggs. if you do, he will cha cha real smooth you out of existence
Get their egg and quit tried to a trike and worked
Get a fully imprinted bronto.
Mount a platform saddle on. (Recommend a ramshackle or higher)
Mount it with 6 cannons (3 on both sides left and right)
Place a catapult at the back
1 ballista on the front, complete a base with an angled roof
Then place 5 autoturrets on the roof (2 each side and one on the middle)
Welcome you have dreadnought
Dear New Players,
Do not hit this creature or take it's egg, you will be launched into orbit.
How I tame brontos (on mobile)
-get pt or argy
-if it’s not near a cliff then hit it and let it follow you until it falls off a cliff
-Use a bow/crossbow/longneckrifle and I usually only use abt 10-15 arrows or darts.
-Aim for the head
-If you don’t have kibble just use berries
-It doesn’t need narcotics usually so put lots of berries in its inv and I usually go do other tasks until it’s tamed!
-boom tamed bronto
The red berries continuously fills up the tame up bar
Sooo. This dude ran into my spiked walls and killed 3 outta my 7 tamed, It killed a dodo and 3 para. I thought the situation was hopeless so I put my stuff in a crate walked outta the base towards it and hit it to take it away from the base. The dude killed me but kept attacking the base and then I saw outta my 7 tames there were 2 survivors, 2 carboneyms and they had a FERTALISED EGG. That’s all it took me to get my fighting spirit back. The bronto had 8,200 health the spikes had brought it down to 5000 and the carbons had brought it down to 3000, the bronto still didn’t run then I joined my broncos and attacked with my bow the dude got to 2,100 and started running. I was outta arrows so I let it go as it swam into the ocean real fast (actually running) this happened a few hours ago (I am level 26)
Take at least 50 tranq arrows if its a lower lvl. I reccomend going on op of a cliff and shoot it with a bow or whatever ya use. If you shoot it in the head it should get in the unconscious state faster..
best way to kill a bronto: put a metal spike or wooden spike in front of it (I haven't tried the wooden spike yet) then it will slowly die because it can't damage metal
If you have a ptera go to the bottom right corner of the island and land on the big rocks than shoot it because they cant reach you and I didn't find any predators on the island that it is on
Me and my friend tamed one it was pretty easy but it eats fast and if you run out of food it goes backwards on the taming scale so annoying
These things are BEASTS at the Lunar biome on genesis. Not only can they harvest a BUNCH of thatch and wood in one swing, but they can harvest almost equally as much stone and crystal from certain “plants” there, as well.
Just be careful not to crash the server like I did...oops.
I was trying to tame megalainia but my baryonyx would have gotten clapped trying to so I went to herb island to exp farm and try to find unicorn but got sidetracked by a lvl 23 bronto. Shot him 6 times with pump shottie and bary did the rest!
Go to herb and Carno island for great exp farms!

Why does everyone say it takes 30 minutes to an hour to tame the thing? That is sooo untrue! Maybe playing on an Xbox is different, but mine only took 10 minutes. And I didn’t change any of the settings to make it do that. I swear, I don’t even know how to (I was a noob 2 weeks ago when I started, didn’t even know how to pick up a rock 🫥).
Ok, STILL LEVEL 63. So many good things have happened today, I tamed a Sarco, got to play with my friend, aaaaaand….. I TAMED A BRONTO!!! Super exited. IT TAMED IN 10 MINUTES!!! The big man gained like 2% every second. Stopped around 84% for like 10 seconds maybe 30, but then kept taming. Easily the fastest tame in the game, right? 214 Mejoberries for a level 28. It took 40 tranqs. I was standing on a really tall cliff and I had a perfect view. He sleeps for 2 hours if you let him, so perfect amount of time to run back to base and grab some berries if you don’t have any or don’t want to spend an hour harvesting without a Dino (like me). I haven’t tested him out yet (I literally just tamed him like 10 minutes ago, and I had to shut the Xbox off). But I’ve heard he’s the best berry gatherer in the game! Super exited to craft a saddle and test him out!
Punch them or steal their egg and you get a free trip to the moon.
