Taming & KO Tips

How do I tame a deinonychus? Tips and strategies on taming and knocking out a deinonychus.
If you main on aberation get a reaper and if u have a lvl 200 you 1 tap em and if you dont tail whip then bite bite.
Use a flyer to lead them away then fly back to grab the egg.
They have nest and can hatch in wild
Find the eggs of these Dino's above the cliffs on the beach spawns, green eggs.
Can someone make a tip about how many torches you need to hatch it?
Gonna be honest. I just ran up into the plateau area with a 12 bolas and managed to get some eggs. Aslong as you don't take a direct path to the eggs so you avoid most creatures that can't be bola'd. Also around 150 and above stamina. Then when you see the deinonychus go after something else. Go for it. The bolas are for whatever stays chasing you after you grab the egg.
You don't need bait, Just take a pteranodon, lure the deinons away, and take the egg.
The incubator temp for boost is 85°
The easiest way to obtain they're eggs is just getting neutral dinos to them and let them kill the deinonychus, get like mammoths or some others dont remember the ones i used lol. Goodluck
P.S. use untamed animals
Carry your tribe mate with a a bird, let your tribe mate use a whip on the nest. Easy way to get egg.
These are fairly simple to steal from. I would advise to bring Trang arrows or some Trang’s but you should be fine either way. Just crouch to the nest. Even flyers work.
A really easy great early game tame
If you want one in fjordur, go to the plains around the castle in the cliffs area.
Super easy to steal. Dont go to the closest nest, find a nest that is left alone (probably because they aggro on ankys nearby) and steal an egg. Rinse and repeat
I did my egg stealing on a Thyla. They are good at fighting back against the Deinons, and they can quickly climb away faster than the Deinons can come after you
I would suggest using a few campfires and a few air conditioners as well. Whenever you’re trying to make the egg and incubate is best to use for air conditioners, and if needed standing torches or campfires.
Everyone seems to think they're only in Val. They're all around the lower valley type areas near the castle on the east side of Fjordur too. I've raised many of them there. They're easy to get, just take a decent mount with lots of health and melee damage. You can easily take out the packs defending the nests just make sure you pick up all of the eggs no matter what level or they won't respawn. Just dispose of the lower level eggs.
By far easiest taming method. Only requires one pteradon. Go to the paradise cove spot. Lure the mean Dino’s off the cliffs until the area around a nest is clear. Hop off, grab ur egg. Rinse and repeat. I got 4 eggs in about 10 min.
Guy in here saying white cliffs only is wrong they are not only there but all around the swamp area high and low by green ob and over near the castle on the cliff
Find a good strategy to steal egg then if you don’t have air conditioner unlocked craft fourteen campfires and place them around in a circle. One completed gather fuel for the campfires 15 pieces of wood per campfire, place your egg in the middle of the campfire circle, finally light the campfires up and Banda boom it will incubate.
