Tips & Strategies
This is 2 ways to gather eggs efficiently.
1) You need a tribe mate to help with this one and 2 fliers. I would use some decent argy’s with stamina and health. Your tribe mate will fly over the nest low to the floor and agro the deinonychus and fly away slowly. They will keep the agro and leave the nest but try not to get hit their bleed does 10% of your health. Once clear you will fly down grab the eggs and fly away while informing your tribe mate that they can loose agro.
2) This one is a bit more difficult but it’s good for when you’re solo. You need a good flier who can carry a tanky dino. For the flier I would use an argy and the tank would be an anky. You fly over the nest and gather the agro and then fly away while carrying your tank. You lead the deinonychus away and drop the tank so they start eating it. You then quickly fly back to the nest to get the egg and fly away. If your tank is still alive you can try pick it up but be careful if your hot they do 10% of your health. Your tank should have some decent health to give you time as when it dies the deinonychus will return to the nest to kill you in short time.
Hope this helps you guys get some eggs :)
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
