Taming & KO Tips

How do I tame a deinonychus? Tips and strategies on taming and knocking out a deinonychus.
If you have no dinos just put everything in speed if you do getting any eggs will be easy I was able to get 5 egg in jus a few minutes
I see tons is nests in vannaland south in fjordur
There are multiple strategies to stealing a deinonychus egg. 1: (solo) fly in with a pteranodon or argentavis and go low and grab the egg and fly before any grab you (this is the riskiest method but still pretty safe) 2: (solo) fly with an argent and drop a creature who can tank hits on passive farther away from the nest and then lead the deinonychus to it and grab an egg while they are distracted. 3: (2 or more people) have your other people distract the deinonychus while you grab an egg and fly away. 4: ( risky solo) run in with tons of bolas and bola all of them, grab an egg and run. 5: ( solo) build a trap, lead then into the trap, and then grab as many eggs as you want. Those are the five I normally use depending on where I am in the game to give you guys options.
Get a pteranadon and find a nest. Land on a rock near the nests that they can't reach you on, but that your pteranadon can reach them from. The pteranadon can attack things from surprisingly far away. When that are all dead, claim your eggs. If there are no rocks to do this on, literally just land, dismount, grab the egg, mount, and leave, all as fast as you can.
It is just so easy.
I used 2 otters to hatch 2 lv83 eggs
On Fjordur, use a pteradon to lure the Deinons off a cliff before stealing their eggs.
Grab the egg and peg it on a flying Dino
Really the easiest way to steal the eggs is to grab a pteranodon, and get the deinonychuses aggroed on you, and you get them to chase you either off a cliff or aggro it onto another wild dino, then take the egg. If you dont have those options you could wait till the deinos wander away from the egg or kill them yourself. (theyre pretty easy to kill with a high level pteranodon as long as its not a huge pack)
Take as long to hatch as a wyvern.
You will need a flyer if you want it easy (on fjordur I was able to get one on foot with parachutes) they can be found around the tip of the North Island in fjords and the white chalky cliffs to the south east of Valgero. They need the same heat as a wyvern so 15 campfires, indoors. After reading them they are the replacement of raptors and can jump far distances, latch, not climb, on walls, attach themselves to prey, and cause a bleeding effect. I would put points into stamina, speed, and health, maybe even carry weight and health if it is lacking in those two.
Spawn on beach zone 2 there will be a huge mountain go into there steal da egg and the RUN btw u cant tame it it will take a room and 3 air conditioners on each side and put the egg on the middle it will start taming am sure.
Get any flyer and lore the deinonychus away and take the eggs, it’s pretty easy!
These are auctally not that hard to get eggs from if you have a flyer because they are pretty much always fighting something making it very easy to steal their egg’s although I have had bad luck with finding good levels
This is 2 ways to gather eggs efficiently.
1) You need a tribe mate to help with this one and 2 fliers. I would use some decent argy’s with stamina and health. Your tribe mate will fly over the nest low to the floor and agro the deinonychus and fly away slowly. They will keep the agro and leave the nest but try not to get hit their bleed does 10% of your health. Once clear you will fly down grab the eggs and fly away while informing your tribe mate that they can loose agro.
2) This one is a bit more difficult but it’s good for when you’re solo. You need a good flier who can carry a tanky dino. For the flier I would use an argy and the tank would be an anky. You fly over the nest and gather the agro and then fly away while carrying your tank. You lead the deinonychus away and drop the tank so they start eating it. You then quickly fly back to the nest to get the egg and fly away. If your tank is still alive you can try pick it up but be careful if your hot they do 10% of your health. Your tank should have some decent health to give you time as when it dies the deinonychus will return to the nest to kill you in short time.
Hope this helps you guys get some eggs :)
Tame a high level Raptor or something small in size so they can’t latch on to you, kill the group and raid the nests. Unlike Wyverns, looting the egg doesn’t spawn more and force aggro onto you, so it’s probably the easiest tame in the entire game with a single decent level dinosaur
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.
One of the easiest ways to obtain Deinonychus eggs early-on in Fjörder is to tame a Snow Owl. R - Snow Owls can be found near the redwoods and are an easy tame, even at a higher level. With their swoop, you can glide down and get the aggro of nearby rexes and lead them to the deinonychus, or lead the deinonychus to stegos / trikes if there isn't any rexes nearby. If you are too low of a level for the Snow Owl saddle, Pterandons are advised. I would personally avoid any conflict between you and the actual Deinonychus. It is easier to deal with a rex than the cliff chickens. Before I forget, they can be found all around the large castle located near the grasslands. The area is very dangerous and I would stick to the air. The best mounts for the job are Griffins or Desmodus, but I would rather get them early with a Snow Owl or Pteranodon.
I used 30 campfires an I could hatch 5 at a time.
Here’s what I have to say about these furry raptors, find the nest. I play on Fjordur and I found a nest a a cliff. They will camp there nest and try to protect it, kill the parents then take the egg, I suggest using something fast to take the egg.
If you fly out of render or get out of render then come back it auto respawn the egg with the same parent, do this for infinite cool colored or good leveled deinonychus
