Tips & Strategies

I saw one of these die to hyenadons so I stole its egg. I’m in fjordur with barely a bow. I tried 8 campfires and 4 standing torches it’s still to cold.
PLEASE HELP ME
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
For getting their eggs, just use a spy glass to locate some high level deinonychus roaming around. Then find nearby nests and check the eggs to see if they are good levels. Use a fast fly like a pteranodon or another flyer, argy etc. if it’s a good level just yoink it while the parents are away or just swoop in a grab it if your feeling risky. For hatching just use lots of campfires or torches to incubate and have lots of food when it wakes up(it will be starving) stay by egg when incubating so it doesn’t die while you are away. After that just imprint it and do the tasks as it says. Then boom, jumpy raptor👍
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
Tame a pt and name it white van, scout out the trench and find an unguarded nest. Land and grab the egg and then c spin out.
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.
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 :)
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
These creatures like to spawn on mountain / cliffs sides just take a flyer agro The horde lure them off a cliff take the egg from the now unguarded nest problem solved
Wear full ghille suit to get eggs, also its good to have a lot of health and movement speed.
