What are tips for brontosaurus? Tips and strategies for brontosaurus in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
Use grapple on high rock and use tranq arrow or darts and feed it narcotics to keep it knocked out
Hit the -> pointing up
for ark creators to see let players Destroy big bold earth does not mountains because I tamed a bronto but it was trapped in oxen rocks so now it is stuck and I can’t break the rocks
If you have a dinosaur that can swim then sit in the water because brontos cant go in water then tranq,shoot with longneck rifle HAVE FUN!!!😁
I recommend that you bring shocking darts and out run it on foot aim for the head and wait 5-6 seconds before shooting again
Find one on beach, get at least 20 narc arrows, use crossbow and wait 5 seconds between shots to get full topority.
If you want to tame a reasonable dino Make a bed near it or take it and attach it to its base, because if you sleep the next day your hunger will be 0. Remember, this works on mobile, I don't know about PC/console.
If your a low level these guys can be DEADLY so if you accidentally hit one on mobile (single player) if you just log off quickly and get back on it will unaggro and this goes for any Dino… but if you do this to a giga (a hostile creature) it will just re aggro.
In the past I was has a base near what i normally call "Bronto active spawn" , aka herbivores island, and to be honest these guy don't hard to kill in casual,ease difficulties, use shotgun and riffle (both are primitive version) if careful can defeat Bronto quite ease just don't kill it while it with friends, I don't know if this is just my self but, it some how has similar machanic to triceratops in that they all attacking me/you.
If you find one below level 30 you can just fire 20 tranqs at them and fill ‘em up with berries to get a gigantic, loyal behemoth.
A great way to defeat is to hide under a tree then shoot with about 60 arrows in the neck or head, and when it runs away wait for clam down and keep shooting it. Hope this was a good tip up so new players can see!
I tamed mine with my carbo kibble that was gonna spoil from the carbo kibble quest, crops, and tranq arrows. pretty easy tame when you are prepared. I reccomend herbi island because of the tall cliff. Please ^ if this was helpful!
I think there’s some kind of structure weight reduction when building on these guys. I have a massive base with lots of furniture in it. The platform saddle is 20 weight, and with nothing in its inventory, the total weight on it is 35 weight. Very nice. If you’re playing with friends, go for a Brontosaurus base if you don’t have access to a Quetzal or Mosasaurus.
These are amazing for getting metal. I spawn west 2 (AKA cragg’s island) on mobile bring this to red mountain in the redwoods with a mount like a thirizino or something slow but strong (you can also just bring the bronto and ride that) and harvest some metal (I think bronto can carry about 1300 or even more) and come back. I got my industrial forge this way . Thank my bronto flooposaurus for helping

Get about 50 narcotic arrow thingys, shoot it in the head with them until it flops over, then put like 100 mejoberys in its inventory. Then go to sleep ( in game) and when you wake up, you got a bronto boi.
Doesn't take as long as said to tame maybe about half as long
