Taming & KO Tips
How do I tame a deinonychus? Tips and strategies on taming and knocking out a deinonychus.
Getting eggs is super easy. Just put all your stuff in a chest, tame like a level two Pterodon, and make the Dienonychus yeet themselves off a cliff. Free eggs for you.
These things are better than raptors🦖🦎
Ok best way to tames these
1. Take a flyer to the nests and find a place to scout
2.wait for a nest to be undefended then fly in. The best way is fly slow coming in and fast coming out. You want to spend as little time on the ground
3. Kill any agro deinonychus.
4. Repeat step 2 and 3
On fjordur go to 40 60 right by the realm portals up above it, you'll see a arch and boom nests, found 4 in that area
When using an incubator to breed, temp is 85, thumbs up if this helps
Incubates at 73 Fahrenheit and bolas can be used on them
Here’s how I get one I lure something that they Agro like couple parasaurs with rare flowers to lure them away and then steal the eggs when there distracted and run
Ps: I used raptor with speed leveled in
For me to hatch one of these, it took 13 campfires + an otter. However I'm pretty sure it takes less when you use the otter from the start. Just tame an otter and then add the fires you need.
Is anyone else losing the eggs when you pick them up, they are spoiling immediately, is this a bug?
Just got 3 egg just with a pt with good stam and speed. Just go to a nest Withought many nearby, grab the egg and run, like your life depends on it. (Because it dose.) I got 3 eggs. But at cost.. I don’t think I’m able to physically handle that much pressure as a 10 year old child only with cloth armor 0-0 (or mentally)
But hey I got some eggs.
Heat required for incubation is the same as wyvern eggs so you need about nine campfires. Up if this helped:)
I value the deinonychus highly, it can easily solo creatures that are reasonably high tier and it’s pack power is exponential. In terms of getting their eggs, I’ve found that’s it’s a good idea to lead them off a cliff with a flying mount.
Don't bother knocking out wild, they cannot be tamed in this method. Instead, steal the eggs from their nests. There are many methods for this, but the simplest is to lead the pack away with a swift mount, or simply wait until the pack has moved away from the nest. Be quick, as picking up an egg will draw aggro, the same as when picking up any wild spawned egg.
These nasty little beasts are absolute monsters in a pack, and can make quick work of any dino, so long as they can survive long enough to finish the job. They are excellent for land mobility as well, being extremely fast and having the ability to latch to vertical surfaces and jump up them for a rapid climb. They also have the only bleed effect in the game that stacks with itself and works on all creatures, including bosses. This makes them ideal for taking out the various arena bosses, such as the Dragon, Broodmother, and Mantacore, as well as seasonal raid bosses, such as the Dodorex and Dodowyvern. To cap these creatures off, they have a pounce ability that let's them latch on to larger dinos, making then hard to hit and impossible to escape from on large dinos.
Be cautious when dealing with these raptor-like creatures, because anything less than pinpoint precision can and will lead to a swift and painful death.
May the Obelisks Guide you.
On fjordur they are EVERYWHERE in the hills just nest after nest there’s around 5 nest locations
72.9 60.9 there is a Custer of nests. Just got three eggs at once after killing the four deinonychus’ up here. You’ll have to either climb or fly up here.
Just for fair warning these guys Take 14 campfires to Incubate, Sorry for my lack of knowledge on How that would Translate to Dimetredons, Air Conditioners, ETC.
You dont need any flying tame, I got an egg in fjordur by running by FOOT, picking the egg and jumping off a near cliff with a parachute, you just need to wait for them to be a little far away from the egg, take it and run for your life and the baby egg life
During events when on 3x or better you can breed then to adult in less thsn 24 hours with just one 100% imprint.
Stole an egg on Fjordur, was trying to position campfires and the such for awhile to get temp right. Then I remembered swamp island is hotter than the rest of locales. Flew there and in castle set up ten standing torches inside a wood building as well as a dimetrodon on each side of egg. Worked for me. Standing torches set up along one side of egg in a straight line. Hope this helps.
There is a ton of ways to get one of these good balls on fjordur for example
1: get any flyer locate a nest lead them away go bag and take the egg
2: lead something really strong to them and let it kill them and then just take the egg while they are fighting
3: get a fjordhawk run into a nest pick up the egg die and when you respawn the fjordhawk brings your items back including the egg
4: run up to the nest while having nothing pick up the egg jump off a cliff respawn and go get the egg from your body make sure you die when you fall
5: find a nest lead the adults away from the nest bola them and go get the egg
It's easy as that I hope this helped
