Tips & Strategies
Reasons why you should tame this:
1. It can gain food by eating berries and meat since it's an omnivore
2. Since it also eats meat that means you can heal it fast by spam feeding cooked meat on it for 10 hp per cooked meat
3. Its saddle has 2 seats so you can bring a buddy with you while riding it
4. You can equip weapons while riding it
5. It has the most weight of any flyer on the island with 1100
6. It has more hp than a rex with 1400 if you're on ase, 900 on asa
7. It is able to carry almost all land creatures except brontos, gigas, and carcharos
8. It is able to scare off almost al land creatures with its roar besides diplos, paracers, brontos, gigas, and carcharos
9. It can fly and walk in all directions including backwards
10. It can swim in water and has 800 oxygen, meaning that it has capabilities similar to a spino
11. It can land on top of water and glide on it like a bloodstalker
12. It can move its entire body to turn where your camera moves
13. It is the 2nd fastest island flyer in the game only bring 15% slower than a tamed pteranodon
14. It can attack on land and does so faster than in the air
15. When you dismount you will be standing on top of the rhynio instead of falling to the ground
16. It will automatically regenerate stamina passively even in air if you are off of it
17. It is an apex predator so if you are riding on it almost all aggressive land dinos will not attack you unless you attack them first except for allos, spinos, yutys, rexes, gigas, carcharos, megatheriums, and other rhynios.
18. You always have an opportunity to imprint it when you tame it
19. It has an ability which can make it take 40% less damage which is resin armor

More Rhyniognatha Utility Tips
10 passengers can ride a diplo along with the driver.
All passengers can use weapons while in the diplo.
Rhynios can pick them up.
You have fast gunship now, use wisely.
Wild dinos ignore you while you are on it unless you attack them except if the dino is an allo, spino, rex, alpha rex, yuty, carcharo, giga, rhynio, or insect buffed megatherium which will attack on sight.
You might think that the rhynio is the fastest flyer on the island, which it is only 2nd fastest but might as well be THE fastest because it literally has the MOST weight of any flyer on the island with 1100.
Top 5 fastest flyer tames on the island:
#5. Quetzal - 12.96 m/s
#4. Tapejara - 15.28 m/s
#3. Pelagornis - 16.38 m/s
#2. Rhyniognatha ~ 22 m/s (tested by myself)
#1. Pteranodon - 25.61 m/s
Note that if you are using flyers to tame other flyers wild quetzals fly at 15.96 m/s and tapejaras fly at 24.64 m/s
They can swim underwater!! I just tested this!β§*γΩ©(ΛαΛ*)Ωβ§*γ -you need saddle I think.-
You can dismount mid flight, DO NOT MOVE AFTER, you will be standing on the saddle, the rhyniognatha will regain its stamina and you donβt have to land
These guys can stick on walls, and pick any size of structure, and it ignores the weight of the items inside of the structure, (e.g vaults, industrial forges,) you can even pick up tree platforms and the structures will stay on the platform, plus it has MASSIVE weight making it essential for carrying heavy items. It can skate and land on water allowing you to regen stam whilst on water, plus it can dive, you can shoot weapons from it, and if you dismount whilst flying, it will regenerate stamina, so ya don't even gotta land!
It actually does not need to be low health. For me it was only 98% health (I did the maths) and it still impregβd my bronto. You can also get them to do the Impreg by heightening their torpor (Iβm pretty sure). Tips for the noobs, they do not spawn at the green obelisk swamp by the beach AND ONLY THE BEACH ONE. They are fairly easy (for me at least) to tame with a high level spino or rex. They can actually be knocked by tranqs or other methods. You can not lead your impregβd animal to safety if inside the swamp (because of the groups of Rhyniogatha) but you can if outside. Just bring a Shi Taki mushroom amount of trophyβs and random things to make things like cravings easier. They crave things (for me a wooly rhino horn and exceptional kibble.) so be prepared. And last but not least they can swim, fly, run and attack at abysmal speeds so that is a benefit. I will also add that the stamina stat on these things is crazy and you can ride while wielding weapons!
