If you have a decent level argy collecting eggs is a breeze.

Just pick up wild ones in the area. Kill. If they latch on you can still attack and kill them. And then just clean house. Easy tame, easy kibble

Easiest way to get extraordinary kibble

Get a Pteranodon with a good amount of stamina, swoop down and lead all the parents/ adult Deinys off cliffs and ledges nearby ubtil you can safely jump off and graab the eggs.

Only obtained by searching for eggs, just like wyverns and drakes. Watch out for the pack though. They protect the nest and with their latching and bleeding abilities, they can be quite formidable. Either be quick about sneaking in and grabbing eggs, or kill them all. There is no in between...

Deinon’s are fast, early game I usually get deinon’s first since they are an awesome first tame. They eggs are difficult to get when new, like me so I set a bed down close to a nest but not too close then i lead them as far away as possible before they kill me, respawn at the bed and then go get the egg. You will need a bit of movement speed as they are so fast but its as simple as that! Thanks !

Did you know the Deino is the fastest dino by far? Should you mess up it's climbing jump hard enough (as I did climbing a mountain on fjordur) you can launch yourself across the map! I went from about 35 lat 95 long to about 65 lat 70 long in less than a second with this "method".

There is a ton of ways to get one of these good balls on fjordur for example

1: get any flyer locate a nest lead them away go bag and take the egg

2: lead something really strong to them and let it kill them and then just take the egg while they are fighting

3: get a fjordhawk run into a nest pick up the egg die and when you respawn the fjordhawk brings your items back including the egg

4: run up to the nest while having nothing pick up the egg jump off a cliff respawn and go get the egg from your body make sure you die when you fall

5: find a nest lead the adults away from the nest bola them and go get the egg

It's easy as that I hope this helped

Standard knockout tame with the S Variants on Astraeos and can only be fed extraordinary kibble

Here’s how I get one I lure something that they Agro like couple parasaurs with rare flowers to lure them away and then steal the eggs when there distracted and run

Ps: I used raptor with speed leveled in

Get a flyer and stay off the ground and look for a nest and make Sure there are none in the area and go to the nest get it and go straight up to got out of the jump attack

Remember that the deinonychus aren't only found in the chalk cliffs, they can be found in the jungle as well as near the swamp.

12 points   🥚 Taming & KO   May 11, 2021   Report

If your lucky enough to steal an egg all you need is I believe 11 torches

And if you got the saddle I’d say you are off with a good start

Their bleed apparently stacks with their melee damage, so putting points into that stat isn't useless, it is actually very useful!

18 points   🔧 Utility   Jun 22, 2019   Report

Stam is key for the latch on ability and climbing. It heals fast when you force feed. I have killed 150 wilds with a leveled leveled 85 hatch. So far you will need to put a little into weight if you want to wear good armour.

Good early game dino, it’s easy to get eggs for them

8 points   ⚔️ Encountering   Aug 14, 2022   Report

Many bundles of nests in Fjordur. 55, 75 and surroundings.

Lead the Deinonychus away from the nests off the cliffsides using a flyer, to then collect the eggs safely.

They are super strong in boss fight. If you give them 4 K health end level there damage a little. They can kill the alpha broodmother in7M.

Quick tip- you can no longer pick these guys up with a karkinos as of a couple days ago. Just waiting for dododex to patch their chart :)
