Encountering Tips

How do I kill a rhyniognatha? rhyniognatha encountering and battling strategies in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
Need a tip for these things? Avoid them till you can get a rex or a spino saddle and the creature and just look for them. Avoid swamps and redwoods. For taming:
Get a rex if you have spares, find a male, kill it, get its pheromone, find a female, get her to 100 hp, use the pheromone on the rex and have her impregnate your rex and just fill your rex with meat. About how to get levels for the baby before it hatches - it has cravings here and there where it asks for certain foods or rare drops.
These things are all over the swamp biomes in ark UME. One thing you’ve got to look out for is multiple in the same place 😂😂 Got my Rex impregnated and proceeded to be attacked by another Rhynio. Up this for sh*ts and giggles
They apperantly don’t leave your body after they kill you so just have them kill u far away from your original death and u should be able to get your stuff if u crouch and walk
ALWAYS CROUCH!!!!!!
Tip, DO NOT go near this guy unless you what to tame it or kill it, & it doesn't matter if it is a Male or female just run away
I was playing the new mobile version for awaile and started to get a hang of it till then when I go near the swamp not even 3 hours later i found one very quickly which is crazy because there supposed to be one the rarest creatures and boi the craziness doesn’t stop here after awhile like 6 minutes i found 2 more which is crazy!.
Don’t try to fight it on a flier.
TLDR- fall damage is imminent
I encountered one for the first time on my argy on the island. I saw it and though “woah, that’s cool. Ive never seen that Dino before! Must be like a bug unicorn or something. I’m going to fight it!
Well, I never had problems fighting things on my argy before, It’s a little boosted, but as soon as I engaged this creep it sapped me out of the air and I was grounded to 1/10 health until it finally killed me. Yikers.
Take in mind during the taming use flak, i got shot with resin off my spino and I died. You need good armor to survive the ranged attacks. I used low health flak and it broke my chest piece.
I set my lvl 101 giga with 190% melee on aggressive and wander in the swamp to kill these guys, mainly. They’re stupid.
I hate these mf’s I’ve lost 4 pts to em. You can’t cross the swamp at all with out them comin after you.
That little shitter toke my body and malested it or smth cuz my body and loot was gone after it 4 shot my as
Best way to counter them. Tame a high level procoptodon. Only level health and stamina. Take it to an obelisk, then access the obeliskand pick to save the procoptodon and then go scorched earth and jump into a wyvern trench and get the egg.In the island tame a bronto, then transfer the bronto , take it to the trench, lure the wyverns to a turret box use the bronto for cover. Use the wyvern against rhynios
You just dont escape this mofo is like a giga MOSQUITO
A high a level theri should be able to kill low levels. I have a strong theri and it took out even max levels with pretty decent ease.
Just hope ur on a fast dino and go near alot of big dinosaur so it gets distracted if u encounter it suddenly
I high level thezi should take care of these quite easily. Mine took on two and the encounter wasn’t that bad. Just constantly attack. I recommend 300%melee on a thezi. It isn’t that hard to get them to 300.
I just killed it and it doesn't respawn anymore...
AVOID THE SWAMP AREA!!! From my encounters they’re usually on the edges so avoid at all cost if you’re early game. It’s way more common to encounter than what people are saying😭 They’re strong, built in armor, literally shoots you and fast af too. It WILL keep up with your pteranodon (base sprinting speed) and argy.
I did not know it was in the mobile game, it literally came out of nowhere and killed my pt TWO TIMES ALREADY. I tried to fly away but ran out of stam, either way it was shooting me sm my pt ended up being low health before stam went out. It mainly target your tames so if your tame is tanky enough you can probably kill it off before it kills your tame.
You can try to use other dino’s as body shields but it really sticks onto you so you’ll need to find a big dino like a paracer to change its agro.
at first i saw a level 90 and i was on a trike level 86 and it attacked me so all i did was pull up my shotty and boom boom boom i saw it die i was so relieved
⚠️Beware in mobile revamp⚠️ these annoying bugs are very common for unknown reason, so you cannot tame a Frog or a Kaprosuchus, this means they should be have rarer spawn, I saw them like 2 of them
Best way to kill net it and megatherium it I thank you for your time
