If anyone tells you that these are rare ignore them because THEY ARE AS COMMON AS AIR I have seen at least 10 of them in one place last time I went to redwoods

Polly is not safe. They will come for Polly. Pray for Polly.😢

It can also pick up a spino.

Everything in Ark Mobile was okay until these damn things popped up and obliterated my lvl 200 trike when I passed by the swamp, now idk what to do with that egg

for some reason i can pickup my wooden tree platform and place it again on any red wood tree (on ark mobile)

The ULTIMATE transporter for taming:

1. It can carry dinos with up to 600 drag weight, which allows you to carry almost every land creature, except for gigas, carcharos, brontos, and titanos. To mitigate damage from aggressive dinos while you are carrying them with your rhynio, you can:

1a. You can use the resin armor ability to take 40% less damage

2a. You can use the screech ability to "scare" almost every land creature for 20 seconds, but it has a 30 second cooldown. You can use this by dropping the creature, going on land, using the ability, then picking up the dino again to not get attacked for 20 seconds.

3a. You can strafe by flying perpendicularly left or right. This confuses the creature's AI and convinces to move its head in the opposite direction you are strafing, which prevents it from attacking you.

2. You can equip weapons while riding it, this allows you to:

2a. Tranq dinos while in the sky so they can't attack you, you can also tranq certain dinos that are being carried by your rhynio at the same you are riding your rhynio, this includes dinos like rexes, yutys, and other medium size creatures.

2b. Tranq dinos on land, using your rhynio's large health pool to tank, you can also use the screech ability or sap ability to minimize damage.

3. You can use its resin projectiles abilities to immobilize dinos by doing a rocket attack, then quickly switch to needle attack and it will make the dino stuck in seconds. (this takes some skill to learn and master)

Just be wary of other rhynios, because they will literally attack any wild animal that's not a megatherium, rex, spino, giga, carcharo, yuty or titano (this includes megs too they can target megs outside of water but they cant go into water lol) plus literally like all tames

Probably cry or maybe shield your first dodo with all your life

On mobile it chooses a new craving directly after you feed a craving to your dino similar to imprinting, but you wont see it until the cravings cooldown is up.

This means if you are save scumming to get better cravings you should do it before you feed a craving to your dino, then after you feed it wont tell you the next craving so you need to wait until the cooldown timer is up, then if you get a bad craving you need to download and wait out the cravings timer again.

this also applies to the first craving you need to save before your dino dies instead of before the first craving timer ends if you want to roll a new first craving

If you save seconds before the cravings timer is up, you will get the same craving every time you download your save.

Bring a sleeping bag with you in case you forget something at your house that your dino craves.

Apex predator yet they spawn in packs of up to 3. But hey, at least you wont get aggroed on by microraptors or anything thats not a giga, rex, carcharo, megatherium, or another rhynio.

These things seem to have weird agro so they kinda just attack any new creature near them. So if you want to escape one just lure it close to other creatures.

If you encounter those and they chase you, lure them to big dino and go under them. They will attack the big dino instead. I used this technique to survive those for like 4 times.

Best strategy from what I’ve found

1 first scout the swamp with a spyglass from the back of an argy. This will allow you to see the gender without getting too close.

2) If the bug is a male, kill it and harvest pheromones. If female make a note of location for later. For killing the male use beelzebufo or Megatherium.

3) feed pheromones to a tame with high drag weight. My personal recommendation is Paraceratherium as they are very common and fairly easy to replace. Also the platform saddle plus mini gun turret makes it simple to get a female to ten health

4) track down female and get it to 10% health. If you find yourself with multiple pheromones and multiple sacrifices you can get multiple tames implanted with eggs in one fell swoop.

5) meet creatures very bizarre food demands until baby makes its big entrance and ta da. You now have a giant incectoid assault chopper.

Make sure you have every little ridiculous thing it could possibly ask for. My bronto was a level 280 and the Rhynio was a level 140,but I got a level 61 baby because I couldn't satisfy the second craving.

No random guy, your sacrifice doesn’t need to be any gender.

To be honest I am gonna take this with element all I need is 5 right? And this fits in two categories taming and funny. So thus far I have yet to run into this thing so if you play Lost Island please tell me where you find them.

I found a high level Yutyrannus, and tamed him. After that I turned Dino damage to 0 Dino resistance to zero (Ark ultimate mobile edition) and tryed to get him to my base (along with my newly tamed direwolf and not new argy) that happened to be on the island on the opposite side of the swamp. These could not damage it with melee, but 6 shot it with resin. I backed out of the game immediately and then killed the one I knew where it was at by jumping off my argentavis and shotgunning it (after I turned resistance to back to normal. Then I set the settings back to the original and 3 more came. Basically same solution, but please fix the rhynogantha from doing resin damage/kills when Dino damage is at 0.0 and stop them from spawning so much, it makes the game miserable.

Excelent caver If you have cave flying allowed, shares a sit with the wyvern when It comes to being an OP combat flyer, one of the best oxygens in the game, also, good diver

Does your sacrifice have to be a certain gender? Like, seriously! Somebody please tell me.

Unfortunately, as of today’s date (April 4, 2025), on Ultimate Mobile Edition Rhynios are affected by a very pesky glitch: they refuse to follow you! That means when you’re raising one, just hope that they do not request to walk for imprint, because they will not move.

I discovered this the hard way when raising a low-level one that I call Boneglue— who earned his name because he would not move and it was like his bones were glued in place, and also because I was tempted more than once to turn him into cementing paste glue. (Not a terrible idea if you’re low on that stuff. Rhynios are surprisingly easy to obtain.)
