Taming & KO Tips

How do I tame a deinonychus? Tips and strategies on taming and knocking out a deinonychus.
Get a high level trike and use the power of knockback to kill them and take your first egg
When you are looking for eggs get a flyer and kill all of the deinonychus In the area before grabbing the egg don’t worry they barely climb in the wild so just stay above them and you’ll be fine
I found that a fully imprinted PT is a great “grab and run” method of getting the eggs. PT’s are everywhere and finding and knocking out a couple high levels for breeding should be relatively simple. At about 500% melee, they can kill the parents with little issue as well, if need be.
I was just able to run in, get it and run away(the parents were distacted). I now have an egg that needs to incubate.
Drop a tame or something thats wild or decent health and have them agro on to it and then run in and take them
Tame any flier. Lure them away from the nest. Go back and pick up the egg.
You need to steal and raise an egg to get these but once you have a male and female you can breed them
Use a argy or snow owl i use a snow owl because sometimes they hatch out of the nest and you can claim them. The best thing to do is use a snow owl to see them, if a baby is out of nest claim criopod and build a little hut
The incubation takes 5 hours and it will take 33 hours to grow them to adult, full grown dino's
I just took there eggs while they were fighting other dinos fling away with my Argentavis easy game
The eggs can be found in many places in the most south-eastern part of the map, look for large circular nests in open crevasses between the cliffs- the eggs are small and blue with green spots and will have a red smoke effect around them
If your the level u can bring narco grenades or smoke grenades to help either knock out any of the bums around to get the egg out of the nest or use a smoke to hide yourself
Here's a useful tip for those on official: it takes 33.3 hours to reach full adulthood from baby on 1x. You're welcome.
Some say to use a flyer, I say pump some lvls into movement speed, get some custom recipes with 150 stim berries in each cake *to get full stam, eat while running* and you’ll out run them, and they will eventually Aggro something else... or should at least :P *if it makes you feel better, just make a wall, and a single doorframe to run through, it should stop a good few, on the other side of said wall put beds, this way if you die you’ll spawn there. Can be used by anyone, just not the beds, to get eggs easy. Make sure there is some kind of cone to keep them held back for longer. And have more beds farther back, and a small base to put the egg in, use bad eggs for kibble, or custom recipes at the beginning* And once you have the chance fly to said egg bin to pick them up, and bring it back to base to grow some :D. Prepare for old fashion raising... no one has cryopods on official, for this map, good luck hunting. Have fun with mutations too ;)
They can latch on to you as baby carefull
The eggs can hatch in the nest if you have boosted rates.
They can hatch up at the nest so look out for babys.
you are pretty much fighting John cena
Feathery raptor of doom, steal their eggs and hatch em. Better bring sleeping bags
Knocking them out might give you an advantage to grab an egg (or more)
