Tips & Strategies
If you're unlucky a Compy might sneak through spike fences. It just happened to me - might have be a glitch or there might have been a gap in the spike wall. Look out for Compy sounds when taming!
I was lucky and only one came through. They're aggressive but they only attack you if there's more than one. Jumped on my flyer and lured it away.

Where there's one, more will slowly spawn in. They won't attack you unless in a group of two or more. The bigger the crowd, the more damage they do.
I locked one in a house then blew it up
Warning: If you hear one near you it won't attack, but just know there will be more and THEY will eat your toes!
Burn them.. burn them with fire
Me and my rex level 236 walking to them
Compys:our fight will be legendary
My Rex:they are only curious
Compys:bite us

If you are a low level and one of these runs up to you, donβt move. Donβt move or attack it. Just watch it. Donβt look away. It will run after a minute, probably (has happened to me) for reinforcements. When it does, turn around and RUN. if you want to tame one, bola it or it WILL get reinforcements! Up this for tiny low levels!
OH GOD COMPYS!!!
WHO ADDED THESE
Very dangerous, very annoying. Also kinda cute. This is the compy, or compsognathus. It is a pack dino, which means it gets a pack bonus if there are other compies around. They are very small, which means if you attack one, others could quickly stream out of the small berry plants. However, they are relatively slow and quite low on health, so if many threaten you, don't bother fighting them. 1. Because it's a bad idea for new/low lvl players. 2. Because they barely give any hide or meat
