Tips & Strategies

Don’t attack these if you are too close to your base, and DON’T PLACE ANY SPIKES. For combat, make sure that if you are a low level, you use long ranged weapons. Brontos can get pretty annoying because they stomp all over your base and tames. It doesn’t do damage, but the constant screen-shaking can get annoying. If you don’t want this to happen, before they get too close, make them chase you in the opposite direction of your base, and then kill them once you’re at a safe distance. Base speed should be enough to outrun them but shoot for 120% just in case. Try running through rocks too, because they sometimes get slowed down and hung up on them.

Warning! Legs can look like tree trunks when farming wood with a Castorides. Brontos don't like things chewing their legs.
Tip : Don't put wooden / metal spike walls near your base if you live in an area with a lot of sauropods.
this is why : since they like to wander around, There's a chance that they will get stabbed by the spikes when they wander near your base. And they will get mad at you, kill your tames, and wreck your base.
so please be careful and think twice before setting up spikes near your base.
thank you for reading.
If you are being chased by a huge carnivore like a rex, spino, giga, carcharo, or rhynio just run through a brontosaurus legs as fast as you can as the huge carnivore will stop attacking you and instead attack the bronto and most likely kill it. If instead you are being chased by a carno then too bad because they don't attack brontos.

I was busy getting 13 of my tames on my upgraded raft
(It was dark) then I accidentally punched it with a metal hatchet
The 13 turned into 3
I had 4 dilos 3 Dodds 1 phiomia 2 paras 1 mosschop 1 anklo
After the incident I had 1 Para 1 mosschop 1 anklo
my bloody legendary bronto clapped 2 rexs and another bronto
So you know how they will save you when you run underneath them with a predator on your tail? It’s really kind of them. Just be careful that you don’t get caught in their sweeping attack because they will hit you and launch you into that raptor pack over there
