What are tips for spinosaurus? Tips and strategies for spinosaurus in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
It can’t destroy stone so just make a stone foundation and build the stone walls about 10 high. Be sure to bring ladders and ceilings to make a little snipers nest. Also bring some narcotics because torpor drains fast. I used cooked prime meat to tame mine but just any meat will suit. Pretty easy tame this way for a big scary dino
Lmao I love how people tear each other's eyes debating whether a Rex or a giga should be breed for mutations, while this guy is slept on. If a rex, giga and spino are same level, spino will beat them in dps and the massive knock back and attack speed render everything but sauropods and flyers unable to approach, it beats them in speed stamina and oxygen 53 times a day, their only advantage is the hp but that is undermined by the spinos op attacks. Beats both in everything but hp, yet is so ignored...
Spino on top it’s better than a rex
Can anyone help me how to make the trap
How to tame:
Step 1: Build a trap near but not too close to your desired spino.
Step 2: Lead it into the trap. (Don't underestimate their speed!)
Step 3: Shoot it with tranq arrows/darts until it goes unconscious.
Step 4: Put your taming food into it's inventory, and wait.
Step 5: Enjoy your new spino! (These guys are really good :D)
I had four spinos but one died saving my life from a meg (he was low like 100 hp) but and the one I just tamed I tamed with one piece of prime and 10x balm
Definitely needs narc, don't know why it says 0...
I can't find a high level spinoff so I tamed a 30 in luck so I can find a level 150 or 110 at least
Just tamed a spino without checking the lvl and it was lvl 3…. Wooo I guess
This is a must have on solo play. My level 76 can take out an Alpha carno lv 1 and an Alpha Raptor level 6 back to back with no problem. When fighting with them don't forget to be near water as they gain increased movement and damage being in (Spino foot) foot deep water.
If you want to catch one properly you can setup 1-3 large bear traps in a row a good distance away from the Spino, then aggro it into one of the traps and tranq it. Don't forget, large bear traps take a few seconds before they become activated.
Bring a shield in case it gets to you before it gets to the traps, they're fast.
Ark 101 taming all large dinos. 4x4 behemoth trap. Leave a space that is person sized that you can shoot through. Use ptera or argy to bait dino into trap. Fly over the other side where dino in trap can't see you. Loop around and close open gate. Trapped. Clear dilos and other junk around trap. Knock out the large dino in trap and tame peacefully protected by gates. Ive used this method on diplos, brontos, gigas, spinos, rexes, allos, theri, etc. All in one trap.
If you see one of these RUN!!! They are really fast but also when it’s damaged a lot it runs away but comes back when it is healed
I found one across from my base. I followed one of the tamimg pen tutorials but made the pen to small and the game kept crashing. I died over 5 times and finally got it trapped then a raptor killed me, when I respawned I saw the spino running towards my base. I thought it was the end of my dinos but no, it looked at my dodo the wrong way and all my creatures (10 dodo, 1 dimorphodon, two dilos,1 Iguanadon, one petradon, and two parasaurs) all mobbed it and it started running faster than anything I've seen in ark. I ended up making a huge pen and having to chase the spino into it because of the trauma from all those dodos... Now I have it, but am over level 52 and don't have a saddle for it.
I dont know if this was a spawning error or not for me, but on Astraeos at lat 40.5 long 56.4, on that area there was just an absurd amount of spinos (like over 25) and that was the main area they were staying in, I didn't really see any on any other part of the island
Ok they are not able to tame on my ark because they have 1 hp
First you need to have atleast 30 narcotics a good amount of fish meat and traq arrows but I recommend using raw prime fish meat because it tames faster with raw prime fish meat. How I tamed it is I shot it then ran in-between rocks and trees then when it wasn't chasing me jo more I shot it again and I kept repeating that untill it was knocked out then force feed it some narcotics and put some fish meat or raw prime fish meat in there and wait and after that boom you have a spino.
I have a Fem Spino, she's level 63 rn, one time when she was level 4 there was 1 Theri level 52 attacking my house, I said "NOT MY OTTER" cuz I left him on my house, so i was riding my Spino named Beast and the anger made me and Beast stronger cuz we killed the Theri easily, one up one respect for Beast
There is a very easy trap to make Taming this beast easier, use pillars in a T shape on the ground, take 14 stone pillars, look up the vid on YT. You can get on your flyer, bump into spino to agro and lead it straight into the trap and it's stuck there. Tranq, feed, breed and saddle up your partner
I just had my friend run by it get it mad at him then shot it in the back with tranqs arrows or darts both will work but if your solo you should make a trap or get it stuck somewhere
