I was flying on my pt once, unfamiliar that these even existed (I’m used to old Ark mobile) and it killed my damn pt, I was left stranded with some metal tools and was attacked by raptors, boas, dilos, bugs, and compies. All which I somehow survived as I watched in horror as “Your Pteranodon Icy -lvl 32 was killed by lvl 3 - Rhyniognatha”. I later once I had spent 2 hours trying to find Silicon for spino saddle suited up my 250 melee Spino and encountered an alpha carno which we killed. I felt overly confident and decided swamp was next to be conquered and so we went to swamp and 3 Rhyniognatha’s attacked my Spino and I. I underestimated their power and my Spino and I both met our fate even after killing the first 2. The 3rd one was smart but annoying because it hovered in the air shooting balls of fire and shards at us which soon ended my poor spino “Venom”. You will be missed venom, you were a good girl, best spino I’ve tamed in this run. -MistyRex
More Rhyniognatha Encountering Tips
Don't forget you guys, we can craft insect repellent to appear invisible to these guys!! This trick also works for taming Scorps or Spiders with rotten meat. Bump it to the top for those who are rusty!
If you’re trying to find it in Ragnarok (Mobile) they don’t exist there.
Pro tip: NEVER under ANY circumstances fly a PT anywhere NEAR the swamp. Dododex says they are rare, but you can get four swarming you at once. This will save your life, controller, and pt.
I was just flying near the redwoods to looks around when one of these freaks pulled up on me and my pt. I didn’t realize they were in the new mobile version so I screamed and tried to run away (it caught up) and I had to dismount my pt and run for it. DO NOT GO NEAR ANY SWAMP UNLESS YOU’RE PREPARED. THEY ARE SCARY.
Only spawn when you don’t want them to
Rare??? My ass rare... They spawn in 3-5 stack literally in redwood around swamp area... Yeah they have alreay eaten around 17 pteranodon, 1 iguana, 1 trike, 20 human and lots of my stuff hardly crafted and looted.
rare my ass, these annoying buggers are everywhere near the swamp
In my experience in ASA on the island, i usually one ever get 1 or 2 spawn at once at the swamp. Also in my experience they have fairly low torpor and a simple pistol wrecks them.
In ark mobile edition dont wander in swamp with a flyer they spawn in a pack and will destroy your pt/argy
So basically the swamp is a no fly zone like the redwoods all because of these oversized locusts. They somehow fly faster than a pteranodon and can shoot sap. Learned it the hard way twice by losing 2 tamed high level pteranodons.
