How ARK players tame and knock out the Rhyniognatha: what to feed it, what to knock it out with, and how to keep it safe.

For some reason, no one mentions to make sure your dino is fed so that they don't starve before gestation period is over or you lose your baby rhynio. If you don't want to waste your time, make sure they are safe, fed, and watched carefully or your efforts will be in vain.

To the one saying tek creatures can't eat the pheromone dropped by rhyno male i have to disagree. My first rhynio just got bred from female rhyno with tek rex as its host

Hi guys can someone help us how to feed this dino, like absorbent it will not put in inventory to tap feed the dino

Whoever said only 2 of these spawn on a maps full of crap, my game crashed and when i reloaded it of course i got unmounted apon loaded and fell to my death and where i thought i was in my base area ibdidnt pay attention to where i died... apon spending the next 3 hrs looking…

Withe the introduction of tek Gigas, it ahould now be possible to create even more powerful Rhynios because you can breed even stronger host creatures for them.

I have not tested this, but a fully mutated tek giga should make for some awesome stats…

For the ping people. We did 9 pregnancies 1-28-24 with 200-350 ping. Used approx 25 pheromones. We use a large boxed in trap. Toxic server killed a 150 we had trapped. Anyway it’s about getting lucky with the angle when they go through their animation. If they miss when they…

I used a net thats shot out of harpoon launcher to stop it. Then i used one shot from a ascended shotgun(227 damage) and hit it 2 times with a metal pick(200 damage). then it comes undone from the net and impregnates the dino.

Noticed a lot of players having issues getting their tames impregnated. Found a tip online that we tried and it worked nearly flawlessly.

Trap the female rhynio. Using a pteradon works great at pulling aggro.

Get the rhynio down to under 100 hp, NOT 10% of its health! Feed…

We need the tranquilizers number, bringing them down is still a useful tool.

Broken asf got one down to 20 health and it still never impregnated our Dino, we had the pheromone going and got its health low and it just never did the animation

Do whyverns work?

If so you could fly to your base and it would be way easier.

If you can not find one i found the best way is to use the kill all wild dino command. When i used it one istantly spawned after i left and returned to the redwoods.

Add Abberant absorbent to the list of cravings not even sure what it is lol it just came up in my cravings

To get a perfect Rhyniognatha you must:

Use a creature with at least 900 drag weight for the best possible stats (Gigas, Carchs, and Brontos have over 900 drag weight)

A max level rhyniognatha is required to get full stats from the host creature (nothing lower than max…

If on single and admin commands and not want spawn it in and tame like a normal person here is what you do

Step one use command AdminCheat GMSummon Sauropod_Character_BP_C 99999999999999 (14 9s)

Step two pheromone get

Step three follow a trapping tip

Step four…

Drag weight of the creature impregnated by the Rhynio factors into the overall level of the Rhynio Larvae. Brontos, Gigas, carchas are best for high levels!

I just net gun this guy then I have a chainsaw and wear a F-hawk. Once the rhino gets to the Red Cross, then pop out the animal using for the tame, high drag weight being preferred. Then pheromone the animal, and when it wakes bam it’s all done, then do the cravings.
