Rhyniognatha — Detailed Guide
The Rhyniognatha, or Rhynio, is a huge flying insect and a strong utility mount. It carries creatures and even structures, screams to scare threats away, and turns
Sap into
Resin. It won a community creature vote and was added in 2023.
Where to find it
- ASA: The Island, Astraeos, Ragnarok and Valguero.
- ASE: The Island and Lost Island.
How to get one
Wild Rhyniognatha cannot be tamed. Kill a male to get a
Rhyniognatha Pheromone, apply it to a tame with a drag weight of at least 300, then bring a wild female below 10% health so she may try to impregnate that tame. The host dies when the baby is born, so pick one you can lose. In ASA the female cannot impregnate a creature that is trapped.
Breeding
It cannot be bred. The baby takes about 7.7 days to mature at 1x (ASE data).
Uses
Carrying creatures and structures, Resin production, and two-seat travel. The saddle unlocks at level 90.
Tips
Choose a cheap host creature with enough drag weight before you go looking for a female.
