Deinonychus Saddle — Detailed Guide

Riding a raised Deinonychus

This saddle lets you ride a Deinonychus in ARK: Survival Evolved; the in-game text reads "Equip a Deinonychus with this to ride it." The ARK Wiki adds that it is used once you have hatched a Deinonychus and raised it.

Unlocking and crafting it

The engram unlocks at level 32 for 30 engram points, and the saddle is crafted in the inventory from:

Crafting takes 10 seconds and gives 17.6 XP.

One creature, many maps

The Deinonychus is exclusive to Valguero, but according to the ARK Wiki you can unlock and craft the saddle on every map. The exception the wiki gives is Primitive Plus: with it, the saddle cannot be crafted. Our records list the saddle on 12 maps.

Protection, weight and loot

The saddle has an armor rating of 25 and 50 durability, weighs 20 and has a stack size of 1. It also appears in loot: 50 crate types can contain it, for example Genesis White (Genesis Part 2) and the Beyla and Hati crates.
