Tips & Strategies
Build a one square rock house with 3 window walls and one doorway and a ceiling - all rock - and a reinforced door , aggro the brontosaurus by shooting it with a tranq arrow / dart and then run into the small rock house, it will try to hit you but won’t be able to and you can keep on shooting it from the windows , it will start to run away with it’s about to be knocked out so chase it and put 3-4 more arrows into it to knock it down, then fill it’s inventory up with mejoberries , ive takes 3 this way , any other way ends up with me dying

I found a low level bronto, climbed a cliff so it couldn't reach me and shot it with tranq arrows. took about 25 arrows. feed it roughly 120 berries and it tamed !
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.
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!!😁
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

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 :)

If you knock it out do not let it fall on you
First time breeding brontos led to twins on the first try, it scared the heck out of me because my phone died just then. Second time I had gotten triplets, so keep that in mind with the birth percentages! I have a bronto army at this point lol.
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!!
The bronto should have a stomp attack up so people see and it could get added😁
