What are tips for deinonychus? Tips and strategies for deinonychus in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
To steal eggs easy just take a high lvl argent and hang out with a spyglass on a high cliff which is inaccessible by most or all threats. Scout out nests with your spyglass and wait for the right moment (right moment being when the deinonychus are busy attacking something larger/something that will take a bit to kill) and swoop down, hop off your bird, snatch the egg, and fly as fast as you can back to your safe spot. You CAN NOT outrun these things with land mounts (unless you leveled the crap out of it's movement speed) so a flyer with high stamina and decent health and damage is the way to go. I got 8 eggs in about 20 mins using this strat. To hatch I built a stone room and placed 5 stone fireplaces inside.
Best way to find the nests is to look for 3 or more in a group. The nests should be near by.
Just wait until they get distracted (they usually will) or lure them to another dino. Once they are distracted fly in, and make sure you land the bird close to you and snatch the eggs and fly off. You can then check what level it is while high up. :)
To "tame" a Deinonychus, you have 2 options.
Option 1. You will need strong creature, and nests. After you will find the nest you have To jumper off your creature, get egg and kill every deino, that will try To attack you. After getting every egg you could find, use Egg Incubator, or 5-7 air conditioners To hatch them (the like 90°C To start hatching).
Option 2. You will need fast creature, like a Pt, wyvern or griffin, and nests. You have To find nests, ten land near one, grab the egg, and run away. Better fly near the ground, over the Cliff, because deinos are stupid, and they will fellow you, no matter what.
Just Get a pteranodon, argy or a griffin and steal an egg and you got a jumping boy
Get a pt have a friend lure them far away or lure them away urself (your friend needs a pt to Unless he's got nothin on him) then grab an egg or two or three or all of them then go onto a nearby cliff so their nit agroed to you anymore then go to your base and hatch them then yay u now have fluffy raptor!
Snow owls work really well get a lv 30-40ish they're really quick so you can always get outta dodge make sure these guys are distracted (usually always distracted by something so it isn't too hard) and land right next to the egg, pick it up and fly outward don't fly directly up
You can farm eggs pretty easy by leaving render and coming back after about a minute or so! It's perfect if you have two egg spots about a minute apart.
Knock out deinos and steal egg,done
Use a horse to knock em out and get eggs ez and kill low levels for higher level eggs
Excellent at breeding mutations these raptors are merciless when you get a pack of 5 or more, set them on dinos after buffing them with your pack leader and watch a literal biological meat grinder, recommend going with hp mutations as they have non existent health pools and are essentially glass cannons however their sheer numbers and vicious stacking bleed dot (damage over time) not to mention 0 fall damage from ANY height and the ability to traverse any terrain above water (not terrible in the water for a land dino) make this raptor very desirable it should be noted that the pack mate buff (press C on computer) can be used while attacking, moving, falling, swimming, or while latched onto an enemy dino, (activation will uncouple you from enemy dino) most of the time not even playing the animation allowing you to get powered up and not miss a single attack from the leader or pack, Deinonychus FTW!!!
Multiplayer: get 1 friend to at least have 145-130-115% movement speed, have them aggro the deinonychus'(?) and nab an egg, or, later on, in the swamp there are carcasses that give polymer, collect some with the ghillie engrams ready, And use that with the first idea for extra safety
This requires 2 people and 2 flyers
The best way I’ve don it was have a freind on a flyer with upgraded hp have them distract the adults whilst you swoop in and get eggs problem free
Fly over them and lure them away. Sacrifice a dodo or something for them to attack, grab the eggs and fly away on Pteranodon or other flyer.
