Fast, Agile, Can climb, Latch on bigger creatures and pounce on smaller ones, can glide a bit and doesn't take fall damage, does good damage and even inflicts an stackable bleed and Saddle is just lvl 32.
Deinonychus
The Deinonychus is an agile dino with sharp claws that can pounce and feed on its victim. The Deinonychus can also climb up walls by jumping. This creature is able to climb by jumping from wall to wall. It is very territorial around its nest.
What ARK players use the Deinonychus for, and how to get the most out of it in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
If you hold jump then let go it will charge your jump for longer range
Their claw attack dose area of effect damage! Great speed and high attack makes them stellar at gathering meat!
Get the egg and book for the hills
The deinonychus is not immune to radiation
These things are amazing for fighting the Dragon boss due to the fact that the dragon can't hit these guys AND they do the bleed effect which stacks. If you can get these, I'd recommend doing so and pumping health.
Today I figured out that if you roar with the deinonychus you get a boost.
Level stamina, dmg, and health. Then get a pig and u can take down every alpha boss on the island
Guys this is my favorite dino for mobility and pvp or pve hands down
The saddle engram sometimes doesn’t work so look for the saddle before gathering the mats
These things take no fall damage and can scale cliffs by jumping then latch onto a new point. They can latch onto larger dinos by jumping once a bite icon shows up either near the larger dinos legs or neck.
Holding down the jump button will make it jump higher and you can also latch onto walls if you jump into one and melee this animal does not take fall damage so don’t worry if you fall off a cliff
Up melee, health, and weight, and you’ll have a great hunting mount. These guys also have a pack bonus when you have three or more
They DO NOT "climb like a rock drake" they cling and stay there, you have to keep jumping with it to "climb". WHIPS DO NOT PICK UP WILD FERTILIZED EGGS. And the "glide" cannot be steered.
The saddle as of 2025 isnt in prim+ and will prob not get added since they dont update the game anyomore (ase)
These things take absolutely no fall damage no matter the distance
Can latch on to quetzals! 😂
These things are awesome they latch onto your opponents giant dinosaurs they have a blood damage that stacks and they do massive damage and they can glide and have no fall damage much like the rock Drake but just can't cloak and it's still awesome though 😀thanks for reading!
I killed a 145 alpha Rex with a single deinonychus. I took advantage of the fact it can’t harvest bodies so I wait till it kills something and then attack it. It doesn’t aggro to me, but it will occasionally go to get something else so wait till it kills that than attack it…

This is an amazing tame!
First it has an ability to grab onto prey and not let go until its stamina is empty, during this ability you can damage prey and take very little damage yourself ( sometimes none ).
You can ( partially ) climb. They have an ability where if you jump…

You can ( partially ) climb. They have an ability where if you jump near a vertical wall it usually latches onto the wall. Spamming jump will get you up the wall in no time!
They have a bleed effect ( similar to the giga ) which deals bleed damage.
They don’t take fall damage.
If you hold down the jump button they jump much higher than their usual jump.
If you get a few of these guys they can obliterate brontos and Rex’s in seconds!
( would recommend pumping stats into health and stam )
