How to tame spino:
You will need: A spino (to tame, duh), a pteranodon with a saddle, an icthy with a saddle, a nearby leed, 40-50 tranq arrows and a bow.
Step 1: hop on your icthy and scrape meat off the leed. Step 2: Hop on your pteranodon and fly to the spino. Step 3: land your pteranodon on a rock for safety, and make sure its on attack target, or it stands there and dies, also make sure the rock is high and not near danger. Step 4: go fairly far back from the spino, and hit it with one tranq arrow. Step 5: hide behind a rock, not too tall so you can still hit the spino. Step 6: keep hitting it, it should get stuck behind the rock and slash wildly. If it starts to run, follow and keep hitting it. Step 7: Once its unconsious, give it prime fish meat. (From the leed.) Step 8: it should tame realativly quick. Step 9: There is your very own spino! put it some where where there is no big threats. ( Allo pack, other spinos or rexes.) Make sure to whstle to stop so it doesn't follow! Step 10: find your pteranodon and fly back to your base. ( if its too high, make sure you REALLY can't get up, if so, make sure no danger is in the area, and request it, then fly back.) Step 11: Find a good spot for your spino and request it. Step 12: Name your friend, and congradgulate yourself. Hope this was helpful! ;D

Find one,wait for it to agro on something,shoot it with your 200 plus damage crossbow 5 times,you have a super rex
If you tame a 30-40 early game along with tame bonus you can kill most anything in your way.
Theyβre stronger than the T-Rex, and easier to tame, what else can I say? Also I found one near my base, so I made a crossbow and some narcotic and tamed it easily! β¦β¦ then I died her pink with potent dust
If you hear your mobile ring and you misplaced it.. run like hell because a spino is staring down at you.. right now..
A good way to get it unconscious without a flying dinosaur is by making 10 stone pillars, 10 wooden ladders then climbing up the pillars and shoot it with tranq darts or arrows, it can't break stone fast so ur safe. Pls don't use less than 10 pillars, I tried and I got pushed of the pillar and just died:( Sorry for my bad English. Hope this helped
Why tame either a Rex or Spinoβ¦ when you can take both? π
Want to tame a super dimetrodon? Read on! Before we get to it, you're gonna want to prepare these things:
DIFFICULTY:
5/ 10: Intermediate
WHAT YOU WILL WANT:
-Taming weapon and ammo (Bow (Tranq arrows), Crossbow (Tranq arrows), Longneck rifle (Tranq/ Shocking tranq darts)
-Taming food (Meat (I prefer raw over fish) / Mutton, Kibble)
-Biotoxin/ Narcotics
Now that you have what you need, let's get taming!
For this dino, there are 2 methods (Honest). Here they are:
METHOD 1: The Trap
The usual. 2x2 stone trap (4 stone floors, 16 stone walls and 4-6 ramps), cost efficient and simple. Lead the spino into the trap and tranq it down. When taming, make sure to watch its torpor as it drains quite fast!
METHOD 2: Trapless
Very easy to perform. Find a spino and tranq it down, and chase it when it runs (Do note the spino is EXTREMELY fast). Also clear the area of nasties (I lost my spino to a Therizino), they like to aggro on everything. Now repeat the taming process and welcome your new spino to your family!
Now, onto the features of the Spino:
UTILITIES:
Spinos are glass cannons, typically having lesser health but more damage than a Rex. They have 2 stances -- The 4-legged and 2-legged stances. The 4-legged stance has a high attack rate but lesser damage, and vice versa for the 2-legged stance. They also have a Hydrophobic Boost, which boosts their stats when they enter a body of water. This increases their movement speed, damage and damage resistance.
That's pretty much it for the Spino! Thanks for your time and check out my other tips!
PREVIOUS TIP: How to tame a Baryonyx
-Your average ARK Mobile player ;)
Here is how to tame a spino!
Material:
Trap 1
9 stone foundations
36 stone doorframes
9 wooden ramps
Trap 2:
6 Dino doorframes and 1-2 large bear traps.
Use Dododex to find out how many tranq dart/arrows and bring 50 to 100 more.
Cryo a good herbivore/prepare TONS of narc berries because they wake up insanely fast
Steps:
1.Have a flyer that can actually carry the trap if u use the first.
2.Find a high lv spino
3.lead it into the trap and if itβs trap 2 quickly put the 1 gate left similar to Rex trap.
4.Shoot a bunch of tranq into its face/body
5.Put food thatβs at least better than prime. I suggest prime fish or kibble
6. Starve your tame and use the bed trick and shove down hundreds of narcoberries if needed
7. Boom you have a amphibious carnivore!
Advantages over Rex(which you do know how to tame I suppose)
Faster, and stam lasts longer
Has a hydrophilic buff that increases speed stam and dmg
Has way better DPS than Rex
Has incredible knock back that kills Rexes and alpha raptor carnos.
Harvests loads of fish and bio toxin
Hope you enjoy your giant carnivore with a cool look!
It is actually Really easy to tame These.
You Need:
1 Longneck Rifle
10 Tranquelizer Bullets
15 Normal Bullets
To be Good Leveled in running Speed
100 Narcoberries
First you Need To Help him fight Every other Creatires in His near (there are Always some) when Hes done fighting with them and has eaten their corpse, He will Chase you, Just give him easy headshots with the Tranquelizer Bullets, (that is easy cause He constantly Looks at you). Then knock him Out. After knocking him Out you Need weapons or Dinos to clear the area of ANY Predators, (thats what the Bullets are for).
After knocking Out, give him Prime meat and fill him constantly with Narco (Berries Work too).
And congratulations! You've Made yourself a "Mister Spy"
Have fun!
Their babies are insanely strong. I breeded my lv 40 and the baby was even stronger then both of them combined! I definitely recommend breeding these guys. Also. Now I can take on that stupid alpha Rex. Donβt worry. I fully imprinted this little guy just like all my other ones. Every one βοΈ is one strength for my baby spino
