Player-written tips for taming, using, and fighting the Brontosaurus in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.

I sometimes wonder why the bronto only has a tail whip attack, I mean, just look at it, it’s huge, I think it should have a stomp attack, or an attack similar to the paracertherium (gets up on its hind legs and slams down on its front legs). It makes sense because of how big…

This was like my 5th tame, took me like 1 and a half hours but it was female and I got a male after a while and now I have like 10 fertilized eggs

A useful guide to tame bronto :

You can use tranq arrows and perch up on a cliff and fire at it from there. It will be stuck on the rocks and will not be able to attack you. Do not hit it on a lowered platform. Go higher enough so that it can't hit you. Then shoot it…

These things can be aggroed on by:

Allosauruses,

Spinos,

Rexes,

Alpha Rexes,

Yutyrannuses,

Carcharos,

Gigas,

Rhynios,

And finally megatheriums that somehow got the insect buff

If it is able to aggro onto a bronto without it aggroing the animal first that means it is…

These are easy to knock out, Just get a bow and a bunch of trans arrows, Then keep shooting it and running away so it wont hit you, Then feed it mejoberries and then wait... Theres your bronto thanking you because you tamed it.

I saw someone suggesting giving it a berry then when it lowers his head to eat you can safely get off. That’s great and all but you can also Yaba-Daba-Doo off the tail with no berries involved!

To the guy who saw a bronto get killed by a raptor cause it couldn’t hit the raptor, my bro to can hit dodos 💀

Be careful! Do not anger it a round tames or bases. When it does its tail whip attack it hits everything surrounding it too. I’ve had Dinos and a base destroyed because of it’s tail. 😖

Build a platform with furnaces and storage on it's back, take it out to a metal filled area, gather metal all whilst dumping it into it's inventory. When your done put all the metal into the massive amount of furnaces you have on it and smelt it up, then store it!

Ok hello there ones who are looking to tame a Bronto or more.

Ok,so what I suggest is to make 2-3 stacks of arrows and like 100 of I'd say probably citronal(lemon),rockarrot(carrot),Savoroot(potato),or corn(srry I forgot the name of 🌽 in the game) for it to…

I'd recommend having at least 70 tranq arrows and a crossbow before you try and tame it.

1. Find a Bronto

2. Get to a high place

3. Shoot at head with tranq arrows(or tranq darts if your higher level) until it's knocked out

4.feed it lots of mejoberries

5. Give…

Best berry gatherer in the game. Solid for clearing out forests and inadvertently collecting tons of thatch and wood. Super heigh weight stat, super high health stat, decent attack with its tail and massive knockback. While you're riding one of these most dinos will ignore…

if you dismount and stand on your bronto's head and then make it follow you, you can move forward without controlling the bronto.
