I got Ark on my 14 birthday for Nintendo switch, and I wanted to share the story of my spino, Togeluga. The Island, spawned on a beautiful beach and found a lvl 4 Spino. After taming a parasaur and letting meat to rot, I was ready to make enough narcotics to tame one. I did a very cheap trap made of stone, got the Spino trapped and knocked him out. After some minutes, I had the Spino. I didn't even have leather clothes and already had a Spino.

The original tames were Winky (ptera) and Aoi (para) both of them sadly died after a raptor and troodon attack, but Toge had thirst of revenge and demolished all of the troodons and raptors. After most of my creatures death, I tamed a trike (Decimator 2, in honor of my friends trike Decimator) for berry farming and started to make a lot of narcotics to tame a huge creature (a Therizino, to be more specific) but, I didn't know they were so fast, and almost before my death, Toge, who was there in case of trouble, decimated the Therizino. What a wonderful save. After that day, Toge went with my to every single place. We got 2 moschops (Calouy and Diki) and a carbonemys (Julito, named after my pet tortoise)

Oh boy, Toge sure saved me from a lot of deaths. First time I went to the swamps, a Kapro and 2 titanoboas wanted to have fun with me, but Toge said no, and deleted the 3 of them. Then a Meganuera swarm almost killed me, and Toge also said no. I also used Toge as a meatshield to tame a paracer (Hawena) and the two of them became friends. Afterwards, exploring many Places leaded me to tame a stego (Diamal) and a raptor (Astro). Sadly, Astro was murdered by pirhanas and a sarco when we were crossing a river, but Toge avenged Astro.

And so the story goes... quick summary, Toge is now level 56, able to kill 1 rex and an alo pack alone, and he has been with me all the time in Ark. I now have 2 rexes (Axis and Demoigon) a tapejara (Stardust, I love you) an anky (Samba) a doedicurus (Mighty, from Mighty the armadillo) a Bronto (Hera) a ptera (Ridley, because of colors) a Diplodocus (Kiwi, because of his colors too) another raptor, another carbonemys and soon I'll get Toge a gf, I promise ๐Ÿ˜‚

I love you Toge, thank you for being always there with me on my ark adventure. Best Spino, best boy. I hope you never die, and be with me forever <3.

I posted a tip on the fact that Spinos are better than rexes, and tbh, they still are. The tip has above 600 likes. I did end up taming a pair of rexes, and breeding them. They had a baby rex that I painted blue and fully imprinted, and pumped all its points into melee. And guess what? I've only pumped a few points into melee on my spino.... AND THE MELEE IS ACTUALLY COMPARABLE! I rest my case. Spinos are also verrry fast. Lol my Spino has WAYYY more damage than my Giga.

Hello, all! Hereโ€™s a story!

I had a spino named Bubbles. He max level (150) and a BEAST. I think he had maybe 30,000 health. He was so loyal, and so brave. Until it all went down...

Me and Bubbles were out hunting for EXP for my otter, Nibbles. We found two mated rexes, and attacked. We easily killed them both, and Nibbles got plenty of experience. Once we returned to the base, my tribemate was going insane, screaming. I raced over, still mounted on Bubbles, and asked what was happening. โ€œWeโ€™re being raided!โ€ He shouted in a horrified fashion. I immediately turned and raced out on Bubbles. He fought to his last breath, his last attack being driving a giga away from out argy, Toriel (#PrayForToriel). Sadly, Bubbles didnโ€™t make it. But that act of bravery and his fearsome fighting won us that battle. So now, comrades, remember to appreciate your tames. They may eventually die, defending you loyally.

I had a Spino once. His name was J.J. I loved him. But like always, good things always come to an end. We were out looking for giant turtles for their keratin when J.J. fell over the edge of a cliff. I was on my pteradon so I flew over the edge and J.J. was following me back to bace when he was killed my a therizinosaurus... I just sat there on my pteradon watching him be torn apart, unable to help... So now, my bace is called Fort J.J. in honor of him. I will always remember my most loyal friend.

Spino is my absolute FAV Dino. I havenโ€™t seen one in ark cus I kinda like to keep to my own little area. There is a spino spawn thing a little farther than I have gone. Should I?

A short story of Bravery and Courage.

One day, while exploring the vast greenlandโ€™s for the Lava Cave, I was pounced by a raptor. She was a beautiful purple color. Iโ€™d never tamed a raptor before. I was attempting to kill it when I accidentally knocked it out. I figured now that itโ€™s out, I might as well try to tame her. And I did so very successfully.

Two game months later, I had tamed a male raptor. I bred them together and Had Triplets, Delta, Echo, and Larry. They all were beautiful. All males.

Then...

A Spinosaurus, the spinosaurus that we had been fending off from our territory for weeks now, wandered just feet away from our base. I prepared for battle. All My Raptors and my Trike were all facing the huge spino. I sent them to target. They all died in the process. Except for one raptor.. The female I had tamed in my first day.. Adira.

Adira now rests in my base, safe from harm.

To the others, however.. May we meet again.

Aight so I woke to go to river rocks for metal but then I turned to see spino on the far beach next to the one where I am and warning: SPINOS ARE SMART I started shooting it and it climbed on the cliff on the slope and was about to eat me but a dodo saved my life so while the spino was chomping the dodo up I rode my iguanodon behind it and I shot it again and when it was heading towards me my moschops did a sacrifice as bait and died (r.i.p. dear moscho) so I saw it chomp my moscho and then it settled. Then after a few days it was gone!
