What are tips for deinonychus? Tips and strategies for deinonychus in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
Okay soI have encountered a glitch where there is no pack leader. Like, they do not work as a pack. This used to be a huge advantage they had pack boosts and everything, but either they updated it or I got some glitch. Just FYI this can happen please say if u know how to fix this.
A really easy way to get one of these bad boys are on a just wait till they are gone out of the radius then check the level and grab if you need it and if it's a low level always take it you can use it for kibble and then you can get higher level eggs spawning (hopefully) hope you find this helpful
I agree w the person that said you don’t need an argie. I got a moth and stole 24 eggs and came out alive without dieing as a lv 23. No need for better creatures, just recommended. Good luck, survivors.

I’d suggest getting 15-30 eggs at a time. Reason is because u can find anything from lvl 1-150. I’ve been searching for some decent eggs for a few hours, and found a few 40s some 20-25s and one 95. My difficulty is at 1 (I’d go harder but my game won’t let me.) and I can find lvl 150 deinonychus by just roaming around. Just explore and you’ll find something. Look in white cliffs. They’re everywhere there.
These are three ways to tame a deinonychus. Note: These do work, I’ve tried them.
1: Get a bunch of movement speed, grab the egg, and run outta there. (For modded/unofficial)
2: Wait for them to attack a creature, then grab the egg and run for your life. (Any type of map)
3: Bola your tribemate/Dino as a distraction, then grab the egg. (Basically a quicker way of option 2, also any map)
To clear the area around the nests, I’ve found a good leveled Argentavis is perfect. The healing buff from eating largely negates the bleed effect.
A baby Deinonychus CAN fit inside a Procoptodon’s pouch.
Take their babies then tell their babies that they are adopted
Definitely a very good tame to have mid game and can kill big dinos fast. Definitely pump a lot of health, stamina and you won’t really need to pump much melee damage if you have more than one. It is very fast, doesn’t take any fall damage and it can climb walls ( only if being ridden) so it is very good for exploring the new aberration biome too.
You can’t tame this Dino you have to steal their eggs like a wyvern or a rockdrake
They are super easy to get do not fear to just get them right away all you need is a bird. They nest bottom right and they take one standing torch to incubate be ready with food because they get hungry quick when they hatch. They are really fast and i think they might turn around this disgusting mana meta.
Deinonychus are very useful early game and even late game. Deinonychus will rip u apart if you go near their best. The best way to get them early game is to place a bed and make them follow you. Redrawn at the bed and quickly steal one.
There you go, you have a Deinonychus early game.
There very cool and good. I love the deinonychus.
Go to Deinonychus nesting site with high level Argi. Go find nest, kill off deinonychus in area. Get eggs and leave.
I would take a pteranodon with my brother being carried by it. I would drop him of, and he would Bola the closest deinonychus, snatch an egg, and we would fly back to our base
