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

These guys are beasts! I have 3 high-level Spinos and each one of them can wreck every sh*t on their path. I also bring one of 'em whenever I'm taming something for my protection, and one of 'em even terrorized the Carno Island XD

Luckily, no Alpha Rex spawned.

When i saw spino for the first time i rush to get a stock of food and tame it.Taming spino is easy just need crossbow with traq arrow and narcostic then wait.

Ok they are not able to tame on my ark because they have 1 hp

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.

On mobile it sucks for prime fish meat, it gathers prime meat much more well. Get prime meat with this, not fish meat

Spinosaurus is not only my favorite animal in real life but it is my favorite creature in Ark. I think Scorched Earth is the worst map because it’s the only map without these. In Aberration they spawn in every region except the surface.

If your new and with a tri mate just bola the tri mate and run

I have tamed 2 of these guys when I was around lvl 35-40s. Find some near rivers, find a good rock and shoot them (with tranqs of course) to knock them out. It helps to have a flier eg. pteranodon to move between rocks.

You can also use your pteranodon’s twirl ability to hit low level Spinos in mid-air so a higher level may spawn in it’s place.

Good luck! I hoped this helped :)

Hello, this a Jedi. Me and my sister tamed one of these just now, and this is how we did it. 1. If you have and to find one of these, to scouting on a pteranadon. DO NOT ENGAGE, I REPEAT, SO NOT ENGAGE. 2. Go back to your base and make lots of tranque arrows and narcotics. 3. Go back to it with your pteranadon, and to to the spino. Park slightly far away from it. 3. BRING A FREIND. Me and my sister did this on single player. I don't think either of us could have taken it by ourselves. 4. Wait for it to attack something, like a parasaur. Then have your freind on the other side and load it with tranques. It will run fast and in the water so have a crossbow. Feed it meat and enjoy your monstrous freind! We named ours Titan. I'll post stories once he's seen action.

Too tame it you just have to get on a high enough cliff so that it can't hit you then start tranqing it and when the spino runs peruse with something that flys

on mobile you can kill spino by placing 1 wooden spike wall and then shoot it with arrow under 20 shot and then K.O

On Valguero tame them in the AB trench, they’re really common there.

To level your spino fast, make sure it is very strong, swim to carno island, then kill everything.

Just go up on a higher rock and give him a shot of 57 tranq arrow at least

If spino can climb on rock then pray to god ☠️

Bring it to swamps: big alligator eat small alligator

Spino have an enormous turning radius. You can use this to your advantage. If a spino chases you run inland or toward a bunch of trees. The spino will get stuck on the trees and then turn around running in a full circle to reach you. For some reason even though the spino is large enough to knock down trees it will turn around and run in a wide arc attempting to reach you.Just be mindful of other dangers inland like raptors and carnotaurus.

If you see these near your base get off the beach/away from the water you don't need to be to far away just a safe enough distance
