What are tips for rhyniognatha? Tips and strategies for rhyniognatha in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
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

Yes this creature is only on the island and lost island
Step 1: first you have to kill a male rhyniognatha and take the pheromone from its inventory
Step 2:take a Dino which can eat the pheromone I recommend taking a brontosaurus, rex ,yutyrannus and trike
Step3: find a low lvl female rhyniognatha (you can use high lvls also but they do more dmg)
Step 4: drop the female to below or 100 health (when you think you can 1 shot it use tranq arrows or a spear or pike) quickly feed ur Dino the pheromone before the rhyniognatha flees away
Step 5:your Dino will be impregnated and it will crave 5 different foods
(It's health will go down but don't try to heal it it's a waste of time and food) the time for the baby to come out will be 1 hour and feeding the 5 different foods is not compulsory but it will highly effect the lvl
Step 6: you now have a juvenile/baby rhyniognatha!!!!!
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
Polly is not safe. They will come for Polly. Pray for Polly.😢
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
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
If you go to deep rivers or the ocean and fly just above the waters surface you can land on the water and glide just like a bloodstalker which causes you to sprint with extra drift and if you go to shallow water you will sink in the water and then start walking on land again.
Bring a sleeping bag with you in case you forget something at your house that your dino craves.
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.
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.
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.
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.
