How do I kill a brontosaurus? brontosaurus battling strategies in ARK: Survival Evolved.
A bronto killed my para named Frost-bite and I will never forgive them

Make sure when u go somewhere without ur Dinos to put them on passive. One time I had a stego, 2 parasaurs, a triceratops and a Pteranodon, and I came back from hunting and there was two brontosaurus destroying my house and they had killed all my animals!! 😭😭😭
Almost killed one with a wooden spike wall. The perfect trap would be a circle of traps then Aggro or be pasint the it will try to attack the traps and die
I had 40 tamed creatures and this brontosaurus decided to step on my wooden spikes and then the brontosaurus hit me with his tail then all my creatures attacked him then I die and wake up to 8 creatures.😡
I don’t like brontosaurus anymore..... he killed my pink raptor too i will kill every brontosaurus I run into when I get a very good Dino
Xp!!!
In early game i found a ascendant bow then i started killing brontos for leveling up fast just grab a explorer note get on a high cliff where it cannot reach you and keep shooting and also a good source for hide (i play on mobile so i got the ascendant bow by pursuits early on in game >lv20)
On an ark mobile server I play on every time I log off on herb island all my tames are on neutral so they won’t attack unless there attacked. But for some reason every time I’m logged off a Bronto randomly agros on my tames and it’s annoying because a Bronto just killed my two pelagornis Pelacopter and Snow Owl. And the server is pve. If anyone knows what’s going on please let me know
If one of these are chasing you on mobile get off the game and reload then it won’t attack you
Sooo. This dude ran into my spiked walls and killed 3 outta my 7 tamed, It killed a dodo and 3 para. I thought the situation was hopeless so I put my stuff in a crate walked outta the base towards it and hit it to take it away from the base. The dude killed me but kept attacking the base and then I saw outta my 7 tames there were 2 survivors, 2 carboneyms and they had a FERTALISED EGG. That’s all it took me to get my fighting spirit back. The bronto had 8,200 health the spikes had brought it down to 5000 and the carbons had brought it down to 3000, the bronto still didn’t run then I joined my broncos and attacked with my bow the dude got to 2,100 and started running. I was outta arrows so I let it go as it swam into the ocean real fast (actually running) this happened a few hours ago (I am level 26)
This creature is slow so this is easy to battle in easy mode just use bow with alot of arrows but i recommended enchantment bow for more damage since while your shooting move backward while bronto is chasing you but you need to be faster than him so upgrade your speed to hunt this guy and stamina you don’t need to upgrade the damage or tame a faster creature than bronto if bronto is near to you run away from him and if your far shoot it again you will know if bronto is low health he/she will run away from you so kill it before it get from water and make sure there are no carnivore dinos or they will kill you
NEVER ATTACK THESE! THEY WILL TOTALLY WRECK YOUR FACE! The story was, there were two brontos near my base. I had a pack of three triceratops, three dilophosaurus, three pteranodons, a parasaur and a dimorph. I attempt to attack one near my base and then realize I wasn't using tranq arrows. And then my dimorph died, and so did one of my pteranodons. I eventually killed it, but didn't get very much loot. Then I tried to trank another one and this killed my raptor, one of my trikes, and probably a few other dinos. I eventually trancs it but it drowned in the water. Up so noobs can see.
I was still a noob when I built wooden spike walls around my base and a bronto got hit by them and one swiped my entire thatch base. I forgot to pick up my 300 Narcotics when the storage box got destroyed
THESE GUYS ARE FREAKING TANKS!!! I was out gathering hide with my pack of 6 dilophosaurs, and I guess one accidentally hit this bronto, and she just started DESTROYING us!! I quickly whistled passive flee, and that worked kind of…I still died because I got caught in my dilos, and I lost two, but luckily I still have Deloris, lvl 69 (a very nice lvl). Worst part is, this was a lvl 1 bronto. Moral of the story, stay away from brontos whilst hunting, and you won’t end up like me. Peace out.
Leaves pet Brontos on passive on PVP; I managed to lure one to the water and watch some jellyfish eat away all 20,000 health, just to snatch its platform saddle.
And don’t sprint viciously, it steps on everything
Ascensent bow, Tranq arrow, high high ground.
South tropical has the most brontos on the center and you can swim them across to jungle south if your careful enough
If someone said that a bronto pushed them off a cliff, you are the worst observer alive. It was a diplo. They have straight necks that point at you, sharp teeth, and their tail is straight like the neck. Brontos have curving necks (like a slide), bigger feet, and their tail is similar to their heads. And brontos do damage, diplos don’t (unless you are thrown off a cliff).
There. Your official statement of “it was a diplo, not a bronto”.
Dear New Players,
Do not hit this creature or take it's egg, you will be launched into orbit.
Punch them or steal their egg and you get a free trip to the moon.
