Ark Valguero Deinonychus Location and Taming

This guide will cover all the details players want to know, like how to find and tame deinonychus in Ark Valguero.

Deinonychus is a raptor-like bird that can glide a little but doesn’t fly in Ark Valguero. This creature is an agile climber, can jump high, and bite creatures larger than its size.

Taming this creature requires storing a large food supply as they get hungry quickly. If you encounter a wild Deinonychus, you can’t knock it out and tame it like other creatures; instead, you must steal its egg and hatch it.

This guide will cover all the details players want to know, like how to find and tame this creature in Ark Valguero.

How to Tame Deinonychus?

The only way to tame a Deinonychus is by stealing its egg by locating its nest. Once you get the eggs, incubate them at 176 to 194 degrees Fahrenheit. You can quickly achieve this temperature by using an Air Conditioner, or you can also use a Dimetrodon.

Once the eggs are hatched, you can feed them the regular carnivore diet: meat. You need to feed it with meat and cuddle it so it grows quickly. The following type of meat is best for them.

  • Raw Mutton
  • Raw Prime Meat
  • Raw Prime Fish Meat
  • Raw Meat

Once it gets adult, you can ride it. You have to improve its stamina a bit, and after that, it will be ready to take out any creature you see on the Ark Valguero map. Its other abilities, like climbing walls and trees, also came in very handy.

Deinonychus Saddle

You must be at level 32 and have 30 Engram Points to unlock Deinonychus Saddle. The following materials are required to craft the saddle:
