What are tips for spinosaurus? Tips and strategies for spinosaurus in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
For the guy that asked what to do cuz there is a spino next to his camp so if you are a pro and have a good bow or a crossbow you could find a high place and try to kill it or tame it but you will need some bio toxin or narcotics and knock it out with the traq arrows but if you are noob just try to not go to him cuz he will kill you and your dinos.

If you need my help I will try to help you 😀
They are fast so stay away from these as far as you can as they may accidentally go toward you and aggro on you,
if you want to live near water then build your base on cliff or else a spino may spawn near your base and destroy it
To kill it you must have a flyer to hunt it down when it running away.Stand on a cliff and rain arrows on it
Although they may seem scary but a low lv one can be easily killed by a medium lv trike
That all the tip i can give from my ark playthough
You can tame them is the following way
1#is making a stone trap and but a bear trap in it then use flyer to lure it in and lock it in, i recommend build trap near water so after you knock it out you can have easy access to prime fish meat(use sickle harvest salmon)
2#is stand on a cliff with a flyer in ready position, then lure it over to the cliff and knock it out, when it torpor is high it will try to run away so get on your flyer and chase it,while it running it will randomly stop for a short time so try to land a shoot it down or switch seat and shoot it if you are riding a tapejara
You put some bear traps on the ground or be on a Tula to shoot the spino
The reason rexes have a tek saddle is that rexes are famous. Same with megalodons and all the other things that have tek saddles. But really, let's be honest, almost nobody has tek saddles. You have to complete a hard dungeon to get a blueprint, or pay big bucks! At least those are the two ways i know of. Im on mobile btw. Really, argy's and spino's should get tek saddles, (you can find more info on argy tek saddle idea in argy, somebody left a tip about it, it has lots of likes so it's at the top too.) Because they're REALLY useful tames to have, in my opinion. I actully on two of each. Im going to put this tip in argy, spino and rex, so you will see it there. Please ^ if you want argy's and spino's to get tek saddles!
Run if u see on just run or you will die
Just got one of these babies and I lost my meso to a Rex in the process 😭😭rip boots but worth it for my new tame
Update: story rainbow died to a level one spino.
To which ever of my tribe mates put her on passive: AAAAAAAA

Ok so here is how I tamed my Spino. I had the help of my brother, so maybe bring some help just in case. All we did was find the nearest Spino, and I shot arrows at it to lure it out of the water so it wouldn't drown while unconscious. Then my bro shot a couple tanq arrows while i shot tranq darts. It took 2 hits from each to knock it out. So it was fairly easy for me. Good luck and I hope this helps.
When you are taming a spino make sure non of your tames attack it because when they are at low health they will run away until thy don’t see you
Run under a brontosaurus if you are attacked by them even if you can survive even but use a brontosaurus because more will appear after that.
Find a low level spino and spam your tranqdarts with the crossbow and make sure you have good movement speed, then you don't necessarily need a trap.
Does the large bear trap immobilize this guy? Asking for a friend.
if you want to find some spino they spawn in in rivers uncommonly but becareful they terrorized my brothers boat
Up I should raid this annoying person next to my base with my spino army down if no.
People in the Rex category have been dissing my spinos. They always bring up “look at the stats bruh” or “Rex better in all stats” but spinos are superior because,
1. Hydration buff. They get a better radius, boosted movement, attack speed, and health regeneration when they step in water. Rexes just make you poop. How useful.
2. DPS. On four legs, yes spinos are worse than rexes, but on two legs the tables turn. They use their front legs to deal massive damage WAY faster than a rex ever could.
3. Water mobility. Spinos can swim rexes just sorta, um, float. Piranhas will destroy rexes. Spinos can out swim AND kill them and many more fully aquatic creatures.
4. Utility. Spinos out speed rexes on land and in water so they fit hunting better than rexes. And because of their high DPS and knock back, their also fit reaper taming. Don’t like that lvl 10 reaper queen? Simple, knock it into the element water. Rexes couldn’t do this because they lack a aberrant variation so radiation damage (Mushroom stew isn’t really cons
Even when they have oxygen, they are good when swimming through deep sea, my spino can destroy mosas, and even tusoteuthis without trouble. I rather use my “Lake” Spino than my forgotten water mounts actually, but if you’re going to take your Spino to the sea, be careful with jellyfish
