Taming & KO Tips

How do I tame a rhyniognatha? Tips and strategies on taming and knocking out a rhyniognatha.
It has to lay eggs on your tames
I found out on mobile you can pop these goobers into a veto pod while they are growing up and it will change their imprinting requests. (After they pop out of your Dino btw)
To tame the rhynio you will need to find a male (drops rhynio pheromone) and kill it. Part two: The stronger the creature the better the rhynio baby, I recommend a Carchar but if Carchars are limited mutated brontos work really well. Part three: Find a female rhynio and trap it, after trapping it get the rhynio down to low health, throw out the Dino that you’re feeding the pheromones and wait for the rhynio to impregnate your Dino. Make sure that your Dino is on passive or it might end your plans to tame a rhynio. :)
These are supposed to be rare but I see multiple and with the low level creatures on the island, if you fly a bird in the swamp area it is usually death
It's has no bby stage unlike the breeding tab states. Pregnancy in your tame then pops out juvi.
Bruh I heard about them dreamed of taming one had everything I needed to tame one and I searched for hours for one (or more like two) and couldn't find one then found out that they are NOT ON SWITCH YET! I play on switch so I was literally devastated. If you play switch do NOT go after one. YOU WILL NOT FIND ONE!!!
New update on the Rhynio, only males drop the pheromones now not both sexs
The pheromone can be placed in a fridge to extend it to 33 days.
1.Get pheromone from dead rhyniogantha
2. Find suitable female
3. Net and bring to about 8% of health
4. As soon as it gets free feed sacrifice tame pheromone
5. She will impregnate and de agro and fly away.
6. Use a 5 behe trap to repeat with as many sacrafice tames as you want.
Do not use your strongest dino but neither just weakest because at the end the dino that is impregnate will die and give birth to the Rhyniognatha
to all brokie/newbie that want one rhyniognatha but don't have materials for craving or a good dino here's what u need to do:
firstly get a bronto. ask my why well cuz it's the easiest tame that could stand a chance against a low level rhynio
secondly get a bronto saddle or platform saddle if u want to keep ur bronto later on
thirdly level ur bronto to minimum lvl 40 max NA by mass gathering berries(note that rhynio saddle unlocks at lvl 90 so while ur leveling up ur bronto use the nacroberry ur bronto collect to make some narcotic with rotten meat) and level all their stats in damage and health
fourthly kill a LOW lvl male rhynio for pheromone
lastly get the pheromone and the creature ur gonna sacrifice(if u got ur bronto a platform saddle then get a trike on the platform saddle) and walk up to a female rhynio, battle it until its has less then 10% health then quickly go ride ur sacrifice dino and feed it the pheromone the female will then impregnate ur dino and fly away and whola u got urself an rhynio(btw if u wanna lvl it up quickly, get a saddle and find explorer notes as long as u discover the explorer note while riding ur rhynio it will give the exp to ur rhynio instead of u)
It always carving shitt, how the f can i get an carcha egg
If you wants this "little" bug and you're on mobile, I suggest trapping it and knocking it out so that way you can get the damage in without accidentally killing it or getting yourself killed. But please know that these things take a really long time to wake up so you're going to be sitting there for a while if it's a really high level since their tour poor drops slower than a lacrosaurus with Dilo spit on it...
Make sure that you kill anything surrounding the rhynio before taming
You can't use a stego to get one of these it won't let you feed the pheromone gland to it. i tried to do that thinking it would be good to tank the damage
They are on the island in the swamps. Hard to find, pretty easy to kill. Kill one take the pheromone, feed in to your dino. Shoot bug with net gun , get health below 10%. Bug will impregnate your dino. Bug must be female.After gestation it will hatch , your dino will die. Claim baby. Good luck.
Watch Syntac’s new video to see where to find them and how to tame them!
For those wondering about spawn commands.
Gmsummon "rhynio_character_bp_c"
Or just summon and the rest without quotes for wild
And gfi rhyniopheromone 1 1 0 for the pheromone
Gfi rhyniosaddle 1 1 0 for saddle
Can confirm it picks up rexes and diplos, also goes underwater.
Figured this out in singleplayer while in creative: To get one, you have to find another Rhynio, kill it for it's Pheromone, find the female, get it down to 10% health, and then feed the Pheromone to a creature you want to sacrifice, I tested this on a Trike and it worked. It only seems to do the impregnate move when it flies up to start shooting it's projectiles at you. This was done with a player spawned Rhynio rather than a map spawned. Your impregnated dino will then get "Cravings" which act like baby imprints. So far I've gotten feeding the trike kibbles, it seems like you can use a kibble above to also satiate it(asked for superior, accepted exceptional, have no idea if this affects the quality of the baby). Also has "Host Size Quality" and "Egg Quality" on the impregnated creature, however I don't know how these affect it at the moment. Discovered all of this on my own by using clues from the description of the Rhynio Pheromone and remembering how Reaper Queens work.
Its hella easy to kill just use a pump shotgun, however they r hell in the early game so avoid them until u have an easy way to deal a crap ton of damage
