Taming & KO Tips

How do I tame a deinonychus? Tips and strategies on taming and knocking out a deinonychus.
Put all your stuff in a storage box. Run into the white cliffs find a nest with no deinonychus nearby (or just distracted) grab the egg and run to your base. Easy first tame.
Up so noobs can see.
Yah, just wait for them to be distracted, land your flyer, fly away... just stole two lvl 20eggs, a lvl 90, and a lvl 135, incubating with standing torches (like 20), 5min from hatching. Lvl 30 something, just tamed a pteranodon and went for deino eggs. Done.
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
Literally just lure them off a cliff and you can get the all the eggs you want with no stress
Just wanted to say thank you to the person who commented about where to find their eggs etc (white cliffs area valguero) I just found 9!! Thanks so much for the help. to anyone looking make sure to check up high too. There's also a spot where they seem to respawn quicker. good luck
My partner and I took our flyers and while one distracted the group by the nest the other collected eggs. No kill no muss no fuss. To hatch just build a fireplace and place eggs near. This was very successfulI in that we had six hatch within 30 game minutes.
Use a crystal wyvern to take the eggs very quickly I got 12 eggs in 15 minutes with a wyv
Commit mass murder on the parents then take eggs🤫🗡🗡🗡
My brother was nervous when he was about to tame one but he went in with a parasaur distracting them and took one from the nest and ran like the wind named it Robin
Let wild kangaroos lire them away then swoop in to grab the eggs
I have noticed that unlike wyverns and rock drakes deins won’t come after you when you steal their eggs. They will only attack if you get close.
If there’s a nest on a cliff on fjordor then lead them off the cliff and grab the egg
Use a oviraptor or whatever it is called and a pt pick up the oviraptor and let the oviraptor take the egg the oviraptor will take the egg without Dino’s knowing
Guys the best thing to do is get a flyer and use a whip to get your egg 🥚
So these guys are not a knock out game you have to find the nests which are in white cliffs in valguero. I went and used an Argentavis to fly down to he nest and got the egg and quickly left I did this to multiple nests in one run not to difficult.
Do not try to knock them out just steal their eggs trust me it’s way to hard to knock them out
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.
#1. Ride your flying mount and scout for deinos nests at chalk zone biome.
#2. Stop at high ground and wait for the parent deinos to chase something away from nest. Or use your Argentavis to carry and drop nearby Ankylo or Doedicurus as a bait to distract the guarding deinos. (Be smart! Wait for the perfect opportunity to do step #3)
#3. Approach the egg using your flying mount quickly!
#4. Jump out near the egg -> TAKE THE EGG QUICKLY -> jump in and fly away ASAP! (This must be done in less than 5sec!)
#5. Make a 4x4 thatch/any foundation with closed wall, roof and a door entrance.
#6. Place 10 standing torches inside. (Add more if the egg says "too cold")
#7. Drop the egg/s then light up the torches.
#8. Wait for the incubation to reach 0%.
*These steps are meant for beginners or first timers on snatching and hatching Deinonychus egg @ VALGUERO map. Good luck!
