What are tips for brontosaurus? Tips and strategies for brontosaurus in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
If you hit it or steal its egg, flee to Minecraft.
Word
UPVONTE SO NOOBS CAN SEE
stealing its egg will make it aggro on you. I had and encounter with one once by this and survived by aggroing all my games in it and he died instantly but it you don’t have a pt, a breeding pair of turtles and a dilo while riding a trike, don’t steal its egg
dont steal the egg really he will hunt you down and tail whip you to asgard
Here is how to tame a bronto:
Materials:
A few hundred tranq arrows with a primitive crossbow. Bring other crossbows just in case! Also BETTER SAFE THAN SORRY.
A flyer with a saddle of course.
A good bronto. Anything 45+ because it’s like doedics they farm a lot no matter the level.
Method 1
1. Find a cliff. Make sure it is high and wide enough.
2. Aggro a bronto and land on the cliff.
3. Shoot with tranq ammo remember to leave a 5 sc gap between shots.
Method 2
1. Whistle a tapejara on follow and switch seats above the bronto.
2. Proceed to knock the beast out.
Use mejoberries or crops to tame the bronto! Bring narcs just in case but I didn’t need any.
Utilities:
Absolute TANK survived Rex’s for 6 minutes.
Good defense Dino with outrageous knockback and AOE.
Currently the absolute best berry farmer in ark.
Enjoy your bronto!
Pr tip, DO NOT feed them the white berries, if you did not read their description. They make torpor go down really fast!
Headshots have no additional effect against a bronto. Aim for the body, it is just as effective and much easier to hit.
This simply amazing creature in the ark world is the brontosaurus. This creature can mostly spawn anywhere and isn't extremely rare. To knock one out the best strategy I've found is to shoot it twice and get on a dino that is relatively quick and run away for a few seconds (very useful because it gives the narco time to take affect) next you get of the Dino again and shoot it two more times (or more depending on your distance from the brontosaurus). It does take quite a bit but afterward throw some carbonimius kibble or some mejoberries in it and wait for a bit. After you tame it the best thing it's for is the massive amount of berrys you can get by swinging your tail at a large group of bushes. It's also convenient because you can put a platform on its back to place strucures on. Finally it is very good at attacking thing because it knocks them back really far and does a lot of damage. That's pretty much all you need to know about taming and using the great brontosaurus!!!
Oh, you just finished your giant wood base that looks like a mansion?
That's nice. Now let me destroy it with my big feet.
It's SOOOOOOOO easy all you need to do is make a stone tower with swirly stiars 15 walls tall stand on top and shoot with 200 tranquil arrows put a Smithy up there with matrices to repair crossbow make sure to have at least 2 exceptional kibble i tamed a 150 bronto that way.
These seem slow until you piss one off. After that you have entered orbit
When taming, remember to not place wood or thatch traps.
Use stone metal or TEK.
Bronto are slow just shoot shocks or tranqs and walk backwards. Use large rocks to jam them they struggle to cross non flat terrain. Use EXCEPTIONAL kibble to tame high levels or you will be waiting 5-10 min even from starve using berries or veg.
Bronto can carry as many people as you like with or without platform saddle aslong as weight limit is not exceeded. (There is no seat for passangers to mount)
This thing right here can wipe out full wooden bases and kill your cat named tofu rip tofu
Do not use a slingshot on this thing, it WILL NOT like it
I tamed one today with about 50 knockout arrows (forgot names lol) it’s actually pretty easy just stay in front of it and shoot it really easy tame on mobile use any crops took me about 15 minutes
NEVER I REPEAT NEVER ATTACK OR TOUCH EGG U WILL BE YEATED OUT OF ORBIT AND THEN NEVER BE FOUND AGAIN!!!!!!!
Get a parausar and go under it it won't hit you and won't get away also only works if there's one bronto
Just look for cliff such that it can't reach you & tranq it, you have a bronto
