ARK: Survival Evolved & Ascended Companion
Tips & Strategies
I am very excited for this to come to ARK! It sounds pretty versatile since it can fly and pick up huge creatures, so it sounds like it can be a mobile taming trap! Not to mention that it also looks awesome, like a moth right out of hell.
I thought originaly that they spawn only on Lost Island and Island. But i just spotted it on Fjordur. On the swamp island ( somewhere around 45 10)
Hope this helps
Encountering this flying moster while It soars to the sky it's gonna be surreal, we also really needed more threaths in the sky
Tek creatures won't work as hosts. They won't eat the pheromone.
Server ping has to be below 100 to get pregnant on official. Anything above that you will just burn through pheromones without luck.
I suggest you find a nice beefy dino If you don't already have one, make sure it's carnivourus so you can deal damage to the Rhynio, use that dino to kill a low lvl Rhynio, because if it's a high level female it would save you time searching for one, once you go out and kill one lower the Rhynio to 10% this part is very tedious you can easily kill the Rhynio with a good dino, once you get it low enough, feed your dino the pheromones and when it gives your dino a quick sting and your dino has a buff on it showing the amount of time until a baby, feed it's cravings or else you'll have a extremely low level one, make sure to immediately feed the baby and imprint on it the second it comes out, good luck!
Ok so I looked at the dossier again the three web abilities are: the slowness goo, coat itself in webs for a defense boost and rapid fire (so I’m guessing like velonosaur) also the dossier did mention carrying things around the base so maybe not rexes but smaller creatures and possibly structures like vaults and smithy’s

The spawn command is cheat summon rhynio_character_BP_C on console idk if it is the same on PC tho
I can’t even wait to tame this
Is it out on console? 🦟
The baby oneshots all things that it bursts from
Only 2 will spawn on map at a time. Spawns are along the swamp River just south of the redwoods. Kill the males and take the pheromone from inventory(shotguns work well on them). When you find a female, have a tame nearby preferably a paracetamol for your first time. Damage the bug and peck at it with a low damage weapon to get below 10%. Put your tame on passive and feed it the pheromone. The rhynio will beat on it for a little bit but don't stress, it will fly up and whip down and impregnate your tame. (If you build a trap you can impregnate multiple tames, I've done 35 dinos off of 1 bug)
