What are tips for rhyniognatha? Tips and strategies for rhyniognatha in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
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.
I tamed one. Mother rhynio- lvl 125, surrogate mother-- lvl 205(base 193) bronto. I GOT LVL 31 Baby!!? Feels like I wasted my hard tamed bronto. For this low lvl I should have just used a trike.
Bring a sleeping bag with you in case you forget something at your house that your dino craves.
Polly is not safe. They will come for Polly. Pray for Polly.😢
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
Server ping has to be below 100 to get pregnant on official. Anything above that you will just burn through pheromones without luck.
First time finding this guy in the swamp the island along with a titanosaur, i thought i was lucky to find 2 rare creature in one place and that helicopter bug was max level,149 i guess.. i was w my max level 298 argy and i didnt know how to tame that bug so i quick search in dex and it said needed to kill it first, well guess what, i got strip naked along with my argy by that damn max lvl bastard, i didnt know he got a few special attack that can make me hard AF😭 so for anyone seeing this natural helicopter,research their tactic first or u will lose all ur precious friend along with ursef

try to use high dragweight creatures, if you are not using a trap carcha is the best, you get to base the quickest, FOR THE LOVE OF GOD USE MUTATED Hosts
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.)
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.
Tranq it and you can do damage to it and check with a magnifying glass to see if it’s below 10% then when it wakes up use the pheromones and watch the magic
Yes this creature is only on the island and lost island
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.
On mobile they are NOT rare
if you seen one there is always one more waiting to kill you
you can't outrun it, if it agro on you kill it or leave your mount or lure it to nearby large dino
avoid it unless you are planning to tame it
They don’t have 900 base health, they have 1400 base health
