Tips & Strategies
One of the easiest ways to obtain Deinonychus eggs early-on in Fjörder is to tame a Snow Owl. R - Snow Owls can be found near the redwoods and are an easy tame, even at a higher level. With their swoop, you can glide down and get the aggro of nearby rexes and lead them to the deinonychus, or lead the deinonychus to stegos / trikes if there isn't any rexes nearby. If you are too low of a level for the Snow Owl saddle, Pterandons are advised. I would personally avoid any conflict between you and the actual Deinonychus. It is easier to deal with a rex than the cliff chickens. Before I forget, they can be found all around the large castle located near the grasslands. The area is very dangerous and I would stick to the air. The best mounts for the job are Griffins or Desmodus, but I would rather get them early with a Snow Owl or Pteranodon.
More Deinonychus Taming & KO Tips
Tame a bird and carry something as you fly over the nest to lure them away like an Ankylo. Drop the bait, then fly back to loot the nest. I got 5 eggs in 30 minutes. Please spread.
Are strong in packs, do a bleed effect and can latch onto surfaces, it is tamed by stealing its eggs and raising them, it can take 9 to 10 standing torches. Eggs are found in the whites cliffs area ONLY on the valguero map. Like if helpful
People on here are giving the most difficult tips to get the eggs. Just fly down there. Hop off when non is too close. Grab the egg. Fly away. It's as simple as that. No need for an argentavis with bait
Here's how to steal one early game: If you spawn in at chalk hills 3 and spawn next to a pond walk opposite to the pond. There are some nests right there. Snatch one quickly and run off the cliff next to the pond. Be careful and make sure to fall into the water. From there make a left and you should get to a beach area. From there it should be easy to find your base.
1. Tame a kangaroos 2. Have a tribe mate with a whip in the pouch 3. Quickly jump on a nest and have your tribe mate whip the egg into his inventory 4. Jump away! No one has to dismount so there’s basically no risk
You can't tame these guys by knocking them out. Instead, you need to steal their fertilised eggs (just like wyverns and rock drakes), hatch them and raise them, just a bit harder than knocking them out. The eggs can, of course, be found in their nests and do be careful while trying to steal one as the Deinonychus is very territorial. Hope this helps :)
Wear full ghille suit to get eggs, also its good to have a lot of health and movement speed.
Finally are on another map, near the hexagonal stone cliffs you can find these miniature allos and their nests. This map for me is currently easier to grab than valguero simply because of the amount of other dinos in the area. THANK YOU FJORDUR
Easily stole an egg by swooping down and parking next to a nest with my pteranodon while the adults were busy chasing herbivores. Grabbed the egg and flew out of there, it’s as simple as that.
I just waited for them to go after other Dino’s and stole their eggs
