Do you lose your tamed Dino when you die?

[Solid Shane]

Hey all,

I just spent 3 hours taming a Dino and as soon as I got it tamed a level 60 dude came along and killed me. My question is do I lose that Dino or can I get him back ?

If he did not kill it (unlikely) it would be where you died still.

If you die then the dino stays tamed. He/she will stand around your body until either you go and get them to follow you, or they die.

If someone or something kills you and your tamed dino is neutral or attack target then the dino will try to kill your attacker, even after you are dead. If they succeed they will be located wherever they killed your enemy, otherwise they will be dead... They will pursue your attacker to the ends of the Earth, so they better be prepared.

Naturally the difficult bit is that your body and your tamed dino may not be in the same location, especially if your attacker decided to run away. As you died before this movement then you have no viable clues as to where they might have gone.

Note: i know this becasue I was attacked by two raptors and was killed very fast, upon returning I found all my dilos standing around my body carrying new meat and hide... yes they do not just enact revenge, they eat the enemy.

ah ok, I guess he is as good as gone

If he killed the dilo its dead, the dilo doesn't have to die. You can die and your pets live but most likely they attaked them so unless they ran off and left it in the dust or stuck on a rock its dead. If it chased and didn't get killed it will be some where random, some times they can survive for a a day or two in the wild lost and get found by a tribemate.

This will depend on how much food you left on them or whether a more powerful dino takes offense at them. They will only move if attacked.

What was that dino? But i can clearly state that whatever it was - it wont stand a chance against 60 level player unless it is a spino or rex :)

I once was trying to knockout a pachy, I screwed up and had my ptera follow me incase I need to get away (it failed), I get knocked out and killed by the pachy. The place was right on the side of my base and the ptera was on passive, next thing I find when I wake up is that the ptera was gone. No trace. No nothing. I tried flying over on the other and whistle a bit far away but no luck..
Anyone else had this?

Cool story. Look at the date of this thread.
