Dododex
ARK: Survival Evolved & Ascended Companion

Tips & Strategies

Not every creature can “eat” the pheromone that the males drop.. like this tip so Dododex can see and add which creatures can eat it and which ones can’t.
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
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.
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!
I lost my 197 Argentavyy cus of these freak, bro stun my argy mid air.. R.I.P Genta🥀
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 DON’T 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 🥳 (R.I.P Rex lvl 72)
In ark mobile edition dont wander in swamp with a flyer they spawn in a pack and will destroy your pt/argy
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.
Hey so do not go near swamp if you only have a pteranodon, because ONE OF THESE STUPID THINGS JUST GUNNED DOWN MY PTERANODON WITH FIREBALLS AND DROPPED ME STRAIGHT TO AN ALPHA RAPTOR. I managed to kill it by leading it under a titanosaur but the raptor finished me off

I lost 4 of my flyers to this thing and every time i am near swamp this mf comes outs of nowhere and attack my dino not me my dino u mf and i used to thought it was rare or something but I don’t think so right now and thats why i am going to tame this mf to take my revenge by killing his kind 🙂
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!
If you’re on a mid to low level ptero or argy, listen for the sound of what sounds like a helicopter. If that sound is near you, you will probably die. Or at least your tame will…. These have the strength and hp of a spino or Rex, and they have one of the widest aggro ranges I’ve ever seen. Give plenty of distance.
Y’all is that thing on survival evolved as well?
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!!!!!
