How to Tame Aberrant Baryonyx in ARK

Taming Steps

1. 1. Prepare your gear

   Bring Kibble (preferred) or Raw Mutton, bug repellent (if applicable), and a shield for emergencies.

2. 2. Locate the creature

   Find a wild Aberrant Baryonyx on supported maps. Check the spawn map and bring a fast mount or a flyer for transport.

3. 3. Approach passively

   Aberrant Baryonyx is a passive tame. Approach slowly with no weapons drawn, drop or hand-feed its preferred food, and avoid sudden movements.

4. 4. Feed the right food

   Place Kibble (preferred) or Raw Mutton in its inventory (alternatives: Cooked Lamb Chop, Raw Prime Meat, Cooked Prime Meat, Raw Meat). Higher-tier food gives faster taming and higher level bonuses.

5. 5. Maintain torpor

   Keep wild predators away — passive tames are vulnerable while feeding.

6. 6. Claim & saddle

   Once tamed, equip a saddle (unlocks via the engram tab) to ride your Aberrant Baryonyx.
