What is a deinonychus used for? deinonychus battling strategies in ARK: Survival Evolved.
On Valguero and Fjördur only, unless you change the Server Settings to make them spawn on other maps aswell. If you meet a deino in the wild and you don't have a good tame, you should start running. They can latch on bigger prey like Rexes or Brontos, on cliffs and other surfaces, but they can't walk in that state, however you can jump up the surface to overcome any obstacle. Those beasts are able to stack a “bleed“ effect on anything they attack, it stacks up to 5. You should skill them on health and damage, that way they will just shred everything, even alphas and bosses.
Do you want to know how to get them? Yes?
Alright, here we go:
If you see a wild deino, there should be a Nest with one Egg nearby... just snatch it, but beware of the great deino Dynasty, they well come to get your Soul.
It is adviced to lure them away before you grab their precious Eggs. Good Luck.

Raptor on steroids, they have pack bonuses and cause bleeding that stack 5 times which makes them mountain removers, they can mount on the side of large creatures (not bosses though) and can't be damaged by that creature its attached to. Takes no fall damage has slowed falling combined with the ability to charge jump and can attach to walls, this guy is able to take on a low level Rex by itself. They also are easy to get because they get distracted by everything but just dip after snaging an egg.
Their nests can actually be found around the castle that’s in the grasslands. The castle there is also a decent base location with nearby deinonychus eggs to snatch and hatch or use for extraordinary kibble to tame things faster. Deinonychus are also great creatures to have to move around and take no fall damage while your mounted, and they also do a bleed effect with their attacks. I would say this is a useful tame, as they can climb walls (such as cliffs, etc.).
They have a awesome jump attack (works best on diplodocus how I know),but the weakness of it is thatched you latch on big dinos they can sometimes hit you(if I’m not wrong).They can’t take fall damage and can climb (when they climb it doesn’t work so well at all).Getting them in packs is very useful and they can jump high and can make alpha buff(like direwolf).(I’m sorry if I wrote something wrong because I’m German)What do you think?Up if they are good.
