What are tips for brontosaurus? Tips and strategies for brontosaurus in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
This thing is great for harvesting berries. It is a must have if you need narcoberries to make narcotics. This dino will provide you with enough berries to last you till retirement (If you put them in a refrigerator ofc, but still).
Once i tamed a Level One Bronto in Singleplayer. WITH A SLINGSHOT. All you need is the high ground.

Do this at your own risk.
When I started I hated that brontosaurus I can never be king of the land I tried to kill and taim it but bronto keeps saying no and kills me until I made this tip get a lot of tranq arrows and berries hit it once and run hit run hit run
If you punch a bronto, you will see our solar system and then the light.
You will be in HEAVEN!!! So, don’t go around thinking you can kill them at lvl 2. You might land on Mars.
Simple way to tame the giant bronto is - take flying or fast running pet - find a bronto - take shoot 1 trank arrow then run bit far shoot it again - after you shoot it 16 times it will run then follow and shoot it - now feed it 190 mejoberries ( also take a bit narcotics for emergency ) and now you have a bronto
Mount a flier and aim for the head when attacking, the bronto will not be able to fight back this way. Easy prime meat.
If you don't have exceptional kibble yet, you can steal wild bronto eggs to make a small amount of it then use it to tame a bronto slightly faster to make it yourself. Eggs are common on black sands on the island or anywhere where brontos are common.
I was in the middle of tameing one of these guys when a spino killed it and me and Ican not find another😢
If you manage to get a low level Bronto, split the level up points between HP and carrying capacity, as the Bronto is like a walking storage cache. Personally I’d rather keep my stuff on a Bronto rather than in a regular supply cache, cause at least the Bronto can defend itself.
Just Get you some darts and show him who's the big guy
Don't be discouraged when it adds barely any taming. Because maybe they do take barely any taming points from a bite, but they bite constantly! So it is not as bad as meets the eye. Just have a steady stream of Narcotics and berries and you will be fine!
Taking its egg is certain death, or a long flying trip, (Tip: RELOG RELOG RELOG AFTER YOU MAKE IT ANGRY)
Ok so when one gets really close to your house, DONT TRY TO KILL IT!!!!! IT WILL STOMP ON YOUR HOUSE AND DESTROY IT ALL! NO MATER HOW BIG IT IS! AND IT WILL KILL YOUR WEEK CREATURES!
Ok so If there is a bronto by your really nice wood house and all your animals that protect your house are there, JUST MAKE ALL YOUR ANIMALS GO SOMEWHERE ELSE. If you try to kill the bronto, THEN IT WILL JUST GO TO YOUR HOUSE AND DESTROY ALL OF IT BC THEY JUST STOMP ON YOUR HOUSE AND THEN YOUR HOUSE IS GONE!!! So when a bronto gets close to your house, do the follow all thing, lead them somewhere else and then when the bronto is far enough from your house that you can kill it, or just lead it very far from your home!
Heres 10 easy steps to tame a Bronto if ur lvl 21+ :
1. Tame a Ichthyosaurus
2. Put a saddle on it
3. Get about 3 bows (they break easily)
4. Make a TON of tranq arrows (60-100)
5. Go to herbivore island on your Ichthyosaurus
6. Find a Bronto (Stay in the water, and keep a distance, it wont agro)
7. Get it unconscious
8. Make sure you have a TON of berries and some narcotics for it so it doesn't wake up (i recommend having a Trike/ Stego for berries)
9. Feed the berries to it and keep narcotics close if its close to waking up!
10. Enjoy your new Bronto!
I hope this helped!
