i literally found everything up until the "birthing" out myself the hard way. i didn't know it wasn't breedable but i suspected it. thank you for demonstrating the abilities

For those who have Super Mutated Creatures (254 points in all stats), Use Brontos when Taming Rhynios. From tests i did, Brontos have the chance to past down more stats to the Rhynio if you get all the cravings.
When i was testing with a Bronto that had 254 points in all stats, after getting all 5 cravings it asked for, The baby Rhynio had 5 stats that had 254 points. This happened twice. AA Brachiosaurus & Megachelon, despite having more drag than bronto only gave two stats 254 points. The Last Giga test i did only gave 4 stats 254 points.
Hope this helps

I feel like the Rhynio would of been a perfect fit for the Center Map. Flying around the center floating island. I feel that was a missed opportunity honestly. It almost feels to big for the Island lol.

Sky Giga ❌
The Giant Aerial Lobster Mosquito ✅

Thanks for the great vid mate. I have been finding them to be a bit hard to find, but that makes sense as crazy strong as they are.

Thank you Raas!❤ and you almost at the mahic number 190k!! Your doing an amazing job! Keep going!!

NOTE: it can latch to walls (cant move) / It can Grab Reapers (even queens), crabs, rock drakes and basilisk (even when they are buried!) / also you can use weapons while riding it. Hope this Helped ;)

Was really hoping to see these guys on Fjordur. If these guys can be taken into boss fights (im assuming not), they would be pretty solid i imagine against the Crystal Wyvern Queen and other bosses where flyers are allowed. Desert Titan would also be a bit less painful. At any rate, nice to see a new interesting creature and it also seems ever since Ark Addtions got big, Wildcard has had nothing but complicated passive tames

Yaaasss!!!! Was waiting for you to post! Thanks mate!

Wow! Thanks for the video man! Everything I needed!

These things are amazing! You can grab anything up to the size of a diplo so far I’ve seen. You can also shoot off them live griffins! I made a small area to box off any rexes I wanted to tame and since my base it by carno island (hidden lake) I just bring rexes there!

I love how it has a death song like amber/resin ability , so cool

I think it's actually a good thing these things aren't breedable. The ones you tame normally already look like they'll be a menace in PvP, can you imagine what a tribe could do to a server with one that has a few good mutations?

I’m really surprised it got so many of its suggested abilities. Still can’t believe it can actually pick up rexes. Been testing it out and it’s been pretty fun. I do think it’s a bit too op and I’m almost certainly expecting it to be nerfed in a coming patch, but for now so far so good. I actually think the reception this will receive by the community has the chance to change the outcome of future creature votes since it kinda tells us nothings off the table.

Today I had my first Rhyniognatha. I love it and I'm happy that they spawn on The Island, I hope that will stay like this because the other maps have a lot of other creatures. I know that can be terrifying for a new player cause is a quite powerful creature. And no matter how much you try to escape you just can't

The dino guide goat Raasclark himself! Best guide❤

These should be great for carrying larger farming tames, like mammoths and magmasaurs. Previously only carriable by tek skiff.

This may slowly become my favorite, it’s already my second favorite, seeing a bug like this be actually useful is really cool, and on top of that it has more uses than my current favorite which was always one of my reasons I wanted it in every survival world

Just wanted to point out the "taunt smaller to medium creatures" line. You can scare a rex and smaller. basically everything u can pick up. plus all draconic creatures. tested wyverns, rock drakes, and magmasaurs. and can be scared. these things make getting eggs too easy

Awesome guide! Still, I'm curious about if someone already figured what the dossier's "reaping the host's best traits" part is about... Maybe mutations?
If not, that'd would be very sad...

Raas always coming to save the day. Almost lost my best Dino

They really did a great job with this creature

Love the vedio,questions how to toggle the info on the left side of the hotbar, it will be very useful to know when dealing with creatures that have a lot of abilities:)

Great vid cool Dino too!

I just woke up saw a video on tiktok about it and i was confused what it is and then i got ur notificafion

I really wasn’t expecting this today

I'm so glad that theyre on lost island
A brand new excuse to play on my favourite map

Very helpful thank you.

I love how ark made Rhyniognatha look like a mayfly (which it is implied it might be or a relative to) which is basically an animal who is at the bottom of the food chain (adults die of hunger because they literally can't eat anything) yet made it the most ridiculously OP creature to date.

This spawning on The Island is terrific, since we'd all be starting on The Island when ASA comes around. Definitely spending some time getting a good few of these and taking them with me to the rest of the maps as they come out.

Not certain you will see this, but look into the drag weight of the sacrificial tame for higher level baby bugs......it seems related to that, and of course, full filling all cravings while incubating. 😉

Great video, thanks for being so thorough.

Ty Rass!!!! 👍🏽👍🏽👏🏽👏🏽

Yay something fun to tame on the island!

now this is the quetz we all needed

This thing is by far one of the most op things I've ever seen tbh

Thank you Raas

It would be cool if you could make a sap narco projectile since it shoots harden sap bullets, probably be my most used creature if it acted like a tranquilizing machine gun.

The fact it can pick up a rex then get a friend to shoot it with narcs is crazy now.

I'm going to tame that as quick as possible its so awesome

IM JUST FINDING OUT NOW? THIS LIT 🔥

Daddy raasclark always provides😩

Thank you so much for telling me this

Yoo first btw your the best ❤️

Awesome and in depth guide. I love the fact that it can glide on water.

This is going to be the new Raasinator for trolling, or bugging so to say. Has many uses indeed. 😏

I haven’t played ark in over a year but I’m still gonna watch this video just in case

Gotta find one first.....😂

Tbh I didn't think it was out yet so got to change one of my server maps and go get one or a few

Don't know if I like it more them my bat but still glad to see this

Pretty late for a video raas! 10:30 p.m. here in Washington.

His was very helpful

IF they add breeding to this creature, I hope they keep it similar to the taming method. Sacrificing a creature to breed them seems more interesting than just another egg in the incubator.

This is like the best pvp

Was on my level 56 pteranodon when I first saw it. Didn’t realize how fast it was until my mount died

Hey, Raas! I have one of these, but I seem to be having a problem. There are several mentions and even footage of them carrying vaults, but can't seem to replicate this function. Do you have any input or advice?

FYI, you don't need to reduce their health to below 100 hp. I've seen people say 10% and 50%, but every example I have seen had more than 100hp remaining.

I spawned one on sp on the island, roared at two allos ontop of ne mountain and roared at them. Bit them once and both disappeared completely, not killed, just disappeared like hit through the mesh

God guide 😊

I love these taming mechanics

Me who just watched syntac do this

Already got one that’s mixed pink and yellow on official pvp let’s goooo

Love the video. Very informative and well made. Question: Do you know if you can cryopod the host dino to change what it is craving until you get something that you actually have?

That bug can also grip on verticle surfaces like the redwoods.

you should try cryopodding it while it holds a cliff platform in the air : ^)

I don't know if it was patched, but when you pick up a structure with the rhynio and then cryo it, the structure will float.

Came here cuz i didn't see a community crunch yesterday, I am presently surprised.

My guy is equipped with homing missals, rapid/ quick fire, rockets and bombs 💀💀💀💀💀💀🪦🪦🪦🪦🪦Additionally to that it can Carrie thinks, land on water, dive and intimidate creatures 🫠
By far one of the best creatures to exist in ark and basically a Apache Helicopter 😂👍

List of the cravings would have been good but still good video

Pvp boutta get crazy with this one

Air reaper queen
Also can you do a vid on spawn locations?

Sad that this is the last creature before ark 2 but glad to see its an absolute BEAST

this def is not the last one however there is atleast one more that won and is planning to be added from what ive seen

This is the best ark tame ever and the almost captured the real size of the average Australian bug

The sky Giga is a BIG game changer, ngl this will make Ark easy, what do you think this will be in pvp Raasclark?

Made a video on this earlier. But couldn't figure out how to tame lol

I don’t think I’m gonna come back to this game until the new remaster comes out, cuz I’ve recently been burned out of ark and stoped playing in a pve server

I was pretty bummed the damm thing won but unlike the sino im glad it did. This thing is nuts

The flying, swimming, running, gatling-slinging, biting, armored SHRIMP

Nice Video! Which creatures can be used for taming? and which Lvl should they have?

Creatures can require Element as well, imagine somehow getting a creature impregnated whilst lowish level and it wants element

tamed this thing a few hours ago, absolutely love them they look insane

This will be very fair and balanced in pvp

When I was raising mine last night my host creature needed a golden hesperonus egg. Wasn't too happy about that 🤣

I love this

Haven't tamed one but just had my first encouter. Was traveling back on my Pteradon after taming an Argy it was pitch black mid way through the night but I didn't have a fear in the world. Until out the shadow this Rhyniognatha pops out and attacks me. I don't know how I survived but after someone managing a Pteradon that run out a stam, dodging a Kapro plus landing in the path of a hugnry rex. Thankfully that thing decided that a wild Pteradon was a better snack so I gladly escaped unharmed. I've decided that I am never travelling at night with that thing in the game. Its screech is echoing in my head.

Everything about this is both terrifying and tremendous at the same time. Sucks they cant breed tho....for now 🤔

idk how i feel about this dino. On it's own, I love it. I think it's very cool. But it kinda does too much for me. Also, it's on the island so if a new player goes in and sees that it might be too much. I like how simplistic the island is.

Saw one today. Tamed a spino instead. Might get this instead

I saw Syntac do this, but I’m watching this to see how to get a high level

Stayed up late to watch this lol

This thing is TOO good

What points should I put into it like what stats should I work on more

This taming method is Hella Metal

Does anyone know if you can use fertilized eggs for the feedings or do they HAVE to be unfertilized eggs?

Heres me, midgame, no idea these things even existed and it chases me out of the swamp 😅 luckily it only had 2k health otherwise that coulda got ugly
