The big WILL NOT impregnate Tek Creatures ππΎ
More Rhyniognatha Taming & KO Tips
Not every creature can βeatβ the pheromone that the males drop.. like this tip so Dododex can see and add which creatures can eat it and which ones canβt.
I know some that cannot:
Megatherium
Stego
Tek Creatures
Anky
Doeds
Sarco
Baryonyx
Carno
Managarmr
Some that can eat:
Wyverns
Rex
Quetzal
Maewing
Trike
With more testing we could have it set up fully and implemented into DodoDex
If you have to tame a high level having a low level try using your own rhyniognatha. Feed him the pheromone and then make it get impregnate from a high level female rhyniognatha.
If you guys are wondering how a rhyinoganthana baby level is determined it depends on the level of your dino (host) and the female rhyinoganthana that impregnates your creature also cravings really matter a lot the formula of cravings it that the total cravings you feed the creature divided by the total cravings you could feed the creature basically around 4-9 depends on server boosts or cheats.
Before you tame you need to know that they kill your tame after its been impregnated
TAMING
- Get a TRIKE that you DONβT love
- Bring it to the Swamp
- Kill a MALE Rhyniognatha
- Bring a FEMALE semi-close to your Trike
- GET THE FEMALE BELOW OR EQUAL TO 100 HP
- FEED the Trike the PHEROMONE you got from the MALE
- IT WILL IMPREGNATE THE TRIKE
- YOUR TRIKE WILL REQUEST 5 DIFFERENT FOODS
(YOU DONT HAVE TO FEED IT THE FOODS BUT IT WILL HEAVILY IMPACT THE LEVELS AND STATS)
- Once the timer hits 0:00 Your Trike will go UNCONSCIOUS AND DIE
AND THERES YOUR BABY RHY π₯³ (R.I.P Rex lvl 72)
All of the currently known cravings for host creatures include
Giga eggs

Taming these things are confusing, but I believe I have figured out how they work.
Step 1 is to kill a wild rhynio (can be any gendrr) to get the pheromones, next it is best to make a trap, the best design i know of is basically a stone dino gate griffin trap, but with behemoth gates. Next you want to find a high level wild female rhynio. Think of the level of the rhynio as the taming effectiveness you will recieve 150 being max. Next you need to lower the rhynio to below 10% hp, you can net them to make this easier. Once it is below 10% hp you need a mount with a high drag weight in order to inherit the best stats, carch/giga have best chances. Feed the creature the phermone and mount it. The rhynio should impregnate it within a few seconds. DO NOT CRYOPOD THE DINO IT IMPREGNATED! YOU WILL LOOSE THE BABY! once your tame is impregregnated it will go through a gestation period and ask for cravings. It is important you furfill as many as possible as they have a major effect on the level the offspring will be and the stats inherited. Once the timer is complete your dino will fall unconscious and die, however you will now have a new perfect tame rhynio!
WHEN DAMAGING THE BUG REMEMBER
10% SO
1000 =100
2000= 200
3800= 380
4500= 450
7800= 780
Just a quick tip, Now only males will drop pheromones,
DONT KILL THE FEMALES!!!
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!!!!!
Guys a huge tip to tame this creature is to finish of a low level male get the pheromone tame a rex or stronger for best effectiveness on the rhyinoganthana babyβs stats pacers and brontos are fine but if you are looking for stronger rhyinoganthana use a rex or carcha or giga then find a really high level female ( low level is fine too depends on how strong you want your rhyinoganthana to be) Finally dismount your creature while the rhyinoganthana is attracted to it shoot the rhyino to less than 10% hp tip just divide the health by 10 anyways, then feed your dino the pheromone wait for it to get impregnented make sure to feed it all the cravings it wants if you want a really good rhyinoganthana using this tip I got many 120+ lvl rhyinoganthana and one of them is so strong it does like 2k damage per hit so yeah guys good luck. Also rhyinoganthana can be deadly so use a really high level argy or a good shot gun
