This is exactly how I tamed the deino being a new ish player : used a ptero and Lured 2 deinos towards me (they aggro on almost anything that breathes with ended up one of them chasing a icthyornis far away) then hover above it waiting for it to start basking. When it open it's mouth, walk towards it feed your taming food and get the hell away. Repeat till u have a lil croccy boi :)

They're a pretty simple tame. While wearing ghillie you just wait for it to stop and open its mouth, run up and feed it (I used extraordinary kibble) then run away as fast as possible. Flying tame recommended to be nearby for easy escape. Using cactus broth would be a good shout for avoiding agro. They lose agro pretty quickly when you get far enough away.

How to tame a Deinosuchus:

Find one (Beaches, Rivers, Swamps, I found mine on the beach in the southeast corner)

If it is in water, lure it out by aggroing it onto you) repeat this every time it goes into water

Wait until it opens it’s jaw, run up to it with kibble or meat and press „E“ to put it in its jaw. Instantly after pressing E, turn and run away, since it’s jaw will slam shut and it wakes up. Repeat this process until it’s tamed.

Leftclick: Regular Bite

Rightclick (Hold until 100% charged): Giga Bite, deals A TON of damage and has a short cooldown

C: Tail swing deals A TON of knockback

Hold Space: Makes it turn into the direction you are looking at

Good Luck

I would recommend only using superior kibble to tame one because prime and mutton don’t give much percent even for low levels. I would suggest getting around 10 kibble for a high level and just get it away from anything because these guys attack everything. After that use some gillie and wait until the gator opens his mouth and approach it near the neck, and feed the kibble. After you feed back away and watch it walk around until it lays down again. The great thing is these guys won’t loose there taming progress or effectiveness if they agro to you. Repeat these steps and you will have yourself one of the greatest all rounded dino’s on the island!

Not sure but the taming food amount and time seem to be wrong. Checked and saw it was 9 prime for a 150 (with 5x rates) walked up and fed it and the taming only went up by 4% took around 25 pieces of prime to tame and I ended up having to go get more since I hadn't brought enough.

Taming these actually isn't too hard if you know the method. I personally had the assistance of a Tropical Crystal Wyvern, though. Quick heads up: They WILL attack Crystal Wyverns on their own, and likely many other fliers (eg Argentavis, Maewing, Pteranodon.) This tip also includes controls, if you have the default ones.

Wear Ghillie, and find your croc. They're bigger than a Sarco and their head shape is different. Have your taming food (I used mutton, I don't remember which kibble they like) in your last item slot. When it lays down with it's mouth open, sneak up to it's head and feed it. You'll know its been fed if it's mouth closes abruptly. Then, RUN, preferably back to a flier. It has a short animation/roar after being fed which gives you time to run. Repeat until tamed.

It doesn't need an interval or to have it's food drain, it can be fed every time it lays down with it's mouth open. Please don't try fight them in the wild! A 135 did over 700 damage and a nasty bleed to my Wyvern with it's Giga-bite. Just avoid them, unless taming.

Controls (PC)

Left click: Normal melee

Right click (hold and release:) Giga-bite

C: Tailwhip. Stuns things and knocks them back.

Space: Seems to be turn on the spot in the direction the camera is facing.

Left control: Roar, no special effect.

With their left click, they can turn immediately like a Sarco.

If your on ase and have these guys on the server, they can be netted, and will still open they’re mouth for feeding. You can get in about 3 feeds before you have to run to create some distance. Even when aggrod, they will still open they’re mouth for taming, just watch out for the giga bite, as it can still use it a couple seconds after being netted. If your on asa, I’d recommend aground one, leading it to a large open area with no water. De render it and proceed with the regular taming method, but only approach FROM THE FRONT, they will aggro if you do. As far as I know, nothing can carry them. Maybe tek skiffs, but I’m not sure. That should be all surrounding them, they do have three varieties in ase, regular, abb and x, and paleo if you use paleo ark. I recommend kibble no matter what, as even mutton takes forever, hopes this helps!
