Tips & Strategies

You should get on a tall cliff so it can’t kill you then shoot it with tranq darts/arrows then give it berries

who agrees that the bronto should also stomp instead of the tail whip only?
Tamed a bronto using 60 berries, no soothing balm. Took about 11 tranq darts to the head. Great at gathering berries.
Idk how in the world I managed to tame one of these this way but here’s how I did it
- hit the bronto to get its attention
- go up on cliff where it can’t reach you
- shoot it with a sling shot till it runs away from you
- chase it down hitting its legs with a club (and dying a few times in the process)
- once knocked out give it soothing balm and some berries
- be amazed how fast it tames (around 1 minute, normally takes 20-30 minutes but depends on the level)
Now you have a big buddy :)
(Up if helpful)
1. Get at least 50 tranq arrows with a bow/crossbow
2. Find a cliff and find a bronto near you (MAKE SURE THERES NONE NEXT TO HIM)
3. Prepare for battle, also make sure he won’t run into the water cause he will drown if he gets knocked out there.
4. ATTACK! Try for the head, it’s most useful.
5. Soon enough the giant beast will fall to the ground! Hop down off the cliff and admire the lump on the sand
6. Now fill him up with berries by the hundreds (I used 1500) But I didn’t need that much.
7. Now wait, get rid of all threats to your friend and protect him!
8. After maybe 20-30 minutes you’ll have a big ol’ protecter.
9. Bring him home and introduce him to your friends!
10. You can do it! Level 20 can do it. Flyers are useful if he gets to close. PLEASE READ

If you are getting chased by some dangerous dino then bronto could be your defender..just run under his legs fast as possible and watch the free battle against bronto vs the one you were chased by!!😁
If you knock it out do not let it fall on you
All you really need is about 40 tranq arrows a crossbow and you will want to stay on a not so high cliff after you knock it out you will need 200 mejoberries
The bronto should have a stomp attack up so people see and it could get added😁
Narcotic Making Machine...build a Chemistry bench on your bronto and carry spoiled meat on it. Go berry gathering and get all narco berries. Start crafting for thousands of narcotics!!
To knock out a bronto you need a crossbow and some tranq arrows, you dont really need longneck rifle but if you wanna tame it faster use it, it is very slow but has a very strong attack, use a fast dino like iguanodon, raptor, or ANY other small fast dino.
Find the bronto you want to tame and start shooting it from far away, its really big so you can't miss a shot, if it gets too close to you it might kill you, so get on your dino and get a bit far from it, when you knock it out you will need 60-120 berries, (I suggest you to feed it the purple berries, but you can give it excepcional kibble, then wait for it to be tamed and take it to your base (I recommend using cryopod so you can move it faster)
