What are tips for deinonychus? Tips and strategies for deinonychus in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
If your egg is spoiling you should put more standing torches down, the number of standing torches varies depending on the climate of the area. Usually you will need about 11 to 12 torches. Good luck!
From What i tested takes about 20 standing torches to hatch and takes as long as a wyvern. There are a decent amount of nests rear the ruins in the white cliffs.
On Valguero and Fjördur only, unless you change the Server Settings to make them spawn on other maps aswell. If you meet a deino in the wild and you don't have a good tame, you should start running. They can latch on bigger prey like Rexes or Brontos, on cliffs and other surfaces, but they can't walk in that state, however you can jump up the surface to overcome any obstacle. Those beasts are able to stack a “bleed“ effect on anything they attack, it stacks up to 5. You should skill them on health and damage, that way they will just shred everything, even alphas and bosses.
Do you want to know how to get them? Yes?
Alright, here we go:
If you see a wild deino, there should be a Nest with one Egg nearby... just snatch it, but beware of the great deino Dynasty, they well come to get your Soul.
It is adviced to lure them away before you grab their precious Eggs. Good Luck.

These guys are beasts in packs. If you are unlucky enough to se attacked by a group of four or more and you don’t have a shotgun you are as good as gone. When you are trying to go for eggs do whatever you must to avoid the packs.
You can bola these bad boys after you git the egg, then RUN you got around 20 secs before they come after you....
Babies can hatch inside the nest before you steal one! Babies also have a chance of pinning you down and attacking you if they are still wild/unclaimed.
They grapple so watch out and make sure you’re able to get out of there as soon as possible to avoid death
DO NOT TAME THESE WITH LOW LVL FLYERS my ice wyvern (10) died REALLY fast to a lvl 61 deinonychus tame them with quetzal also make sure
They are not focused on you I recommend having 2 players one distracts and one steals I got 3 in 10 min with this
I wanted to get one on fjordur, so I went to the middle-ish nest spot of the area (around 75, 50) with my argy, Valkyrie. Supper scared till I saw a gigantic Rex murdering the deinonychus at the nests. I just hopped off of my bird and grabbed an 105 egg 😂 no one even noticed! Easiest grab ever.
Yo any ideas on where to find nests on fjord cause these guys are there as well
BELIEVE IT OR NOT ITS NOT JUST FOUND IN THE WHITE CLIFFS! FOUND SOME IN A FOREST AT THE SIDE OF THE MAP SOMEWHERE ON A CLIFF.
You cannot tame them, only hatch them. Found ONLY on Valguero map i white chalk cliffs. Rhey can latch onto surfaces. Not like thylacalyo. They have special bleed ability that causes target to lose 5% of healt in five seconds. If this was useful like. This is my first tip. By, and peace
To steal a deinonychus egg in valgeuro, you can do it very early by starting in the chalk cliffs and then making a crap tin if bolas to bola all the deinons so you can easily grab an egg or two and run. From there deinonychus are very good at bringing down small to mid sized theropods as well as traversing around the cliff environment.
Put all your stuff in a storage box. Run into the white cliffs find a nest with no deinonychus nearby (or just distracted) grab the egg and run to your base. Easy first tame.
Up so noobs can see.
Yah, just wait for them to be distracted, land your flyer, fly away... just stole two lvl 20eggs, a lvl 90, and a lvl 135, incubating with standing torches (like 20), 5min from hatching. Lvl 30 something, just tamed a pteranodon and went for deino eggs. Done.
I have a pack to really strong dire wolves, and two deinoychus nests a little ways from my house. I simply take my pack of dire wolves, go kill them, and take the eggs. I now have like 15 eggs and three fluffy raptors of my own.
