The Impossible Quest Begins
In Baron’s viral video, he attempts what less than 0.01% of ARK players achieve: solo taming every creature on The Island – including the temporary Titanosaur and elusive Liopleurodon. Here’s how he did it:
Phase 1: Preparation is EVERYTHING
Critical Early-Game Moves:
- First Kill: Level 150 Dodo (1:100,000 spawn chance!)
- Essential Tames:
- Trike (berry farming)
- Ankylo (metal)
- Doedicurus (stone)
- Game-Changer Loot: 150% crossbow from Alpha Raptor
Pro Tip: Use “Solo Target” mode on tames for AFK resource farming!
Phase 2: Redwood Dominance
Key Tames & Strategies:
- Megatherium
- Swamp Cave Bug Clearance → 10,000+ chitin → cementing paste
- Therizinosaurus
- 75 level → 2,000 berries/sec
- Trap Mastery
- 4-gate Mammoth trap
- Volcano Allosaurus sniping
Nightmare Fuel: Troodons with “better AI than most bosses” (Baron’s words)
Phase 3: Oceanic Hell
Underwater Taming Saga:
Dino | Challenge | Baron’s Hack |
---|---|---|
Mosasaur | Ran away constantly | Cryopod+Re-release |
Tuso | 45-minute chase + broken bones | Force-feed in shallow water |
Liopleurodon | 30-minute lifespan | Cryo-freeze exploit |
Worst Moment: “I lost my first Wyvern to a crash… then Nik3’s quote saved me” – Baron
Phase 4: The Big Guns
Titan-Level Tames:
- Giga
- 2-hour knockout → 1,500 narcotics
- Used to farm Alpha Rexes
- Titanosaur
- 1-hour cannon firing → 200 cannonballs
- Base defence MVP (until 24h expiry)
Code Red: “He pulled a Mr. President and almost crushed me!” – Baron on Titanosaur AI
Phase 5: The Final 10%
Most Brutal Tames:
- Rhyniognatha
- 4-hour Rhino hunt → pheromone impregnation
- 99.9% imprint fail rage
- Unicorn
- Spawned INSIDE his base post-challenge
- Phoenix
- Superheat wave timing + Wyvern fire breath
Pro Tips from Baron’s 1,600+ Hours
- Cryopod Everything – Fridge preserves imprint progress
-
Event Exploit –
slomo 10000
forces Wyvern egg spawns - Taming Priority – Always go for 135+ wild levels
- Avoid – Pegomastax (“steals your soul… and items”)
FAQ: Solo Taming ARK’s Toughest Dinosaurs
What’s the HARDEST solo tame in ARK?
Titanosaur – 1hr cannon fire + 24h time limit. Rhyniognatha’s RNG is worse though!
Can you keep Liopleurodon forever in ARK?
Yes! Cryo-freezing resets the 30-minute timer.
What is the best early-game tame for beginners in ARK?
Megatherium – Swamp Cave = infinite chitin/cementing paste.
How to survive underwater taming in ARK?
Use Basilosaurus – immune to jellyfish/eels!
