I think spinos are better than rexes in every way

but one they lay superior eggs and rexes lay exceptional eggs.

Wild Spinos love Raw Prime Fish Meat so much they eat one per 25 hunger instead of 50 when taming!

Trap the spino by making cage i don't know how to build it but see on youtube he it in the cage and then sleep and then tranq it it's food level will be 0

Trapping it with bear traps or a trap that holds it forever is essential bc when these guys are about to go down they run like hell, and fast.

kibble takes more time to tame then prime fish meat?

I tamed a lvl 55 on Valguero. Took about 30-40 Darts and 20 Arrows.

Spine taming is very easy. Just shoot it in the face like it killed your family and keep running for a few seconds. Then repeat. Worked for me.(Btw, I also got one by tricking my friend! I simply lured him to a spino, bola to the feet and used him as man-bait!!😎).

If you need bodyguards while moving things across the ocean these with melee and some weight could make the whole process safer for a single person or really small tribes

I'm a average ark player but I just used 4 stone gateways and that's it I tried doing it on a cliff but it was to fast to try run and tranq so the trap is definitely easier but I do play single player with settings boosted a little so I don't know how hard stone gateways are to get normally.

Use this to protect your meg from other mega the best guard dino in my opinion

Killed one in .3 seconds Three trikes one carno one stego

And a dilo

I’ve seen people say these are easier to tame than a Rex… forgive me for saying that is wrong. They do take less tranqs, but they run away way faster, and if doing it trapless, the Rex is way way easier to do, because they are so slow. Spinos also need a lot of narcotics or biotoxin, no matter what meat you feed them. Rexes don’t need any if you can keep them supplied with at least prime meat. Not to mention kibble😂 I hope this helped! It’s definitely not to be discouraging, and if using a trap and preparing plenty of narcs, the spino can be easier. Happy taming, everyone!

The ultimate beast for fighting the megapithigas

When Tamed they are like the iguanodons big brother which u can use 2 legs (slower but stronger) or 4 legs (Faster but weaker) and oh boi this guy is good in the swamps since titanoboas,barys,sarcos and kapro something will not agro to you if are only riding the spino and one more thing,this bad boy can get a lot of prime meat all you need to do is go to the swamp find a paracetheium or a lot of titanoboas and just go to 2 legs mode and kill all of them to get frickin 100 in 32 mins in my experience and basically it has a buff where if it's in a body of water (rain doesn't work)it's gets super strong that's why they bad boi can supply u some prime meat but it is bad on land (not on shores)

Looking to tame one? Head to aberration or the ab cave on Valguero. Aberrant Spinos are everywhere in there, and they’re always very nice to look at because of that glow

They are OP if you imprint them fully!

Where he's found? He would be found at shores (INLAND WATERS most commonly)

•You should have a crossbow or a high lvl bow with tranq arrows. ALSO A HELLA NARCOTICS, since its got High Torpor Drain.

•Make 7 wooden Dino Gates before going to tame him, carry it with you.

•Before going to attack him clear the area of any obstacles such as rocks,trees etc. coz our spino boy shows crazy psycho movements . Once you clear the area you're gonna place 6 dino gates with little spaces between them(place them kind of circular). The last dino gate will be placed after luring him inside.

•Go provoke him somehow, lure him into the gates. He'll try to eat you and prolly you'll lose health coz his head comes outta the gate and bites ya. Now go place the 7th gate fast and voila!!! He's caged in. Slightly move away from the gates and aim the tranq arrows at his head and shoot. After he's knocked feed him preferred Raw Prime meat or Kibble.Also put a lotta narcotics into his inventory.

You could also give him the normal Raw meat[ IT WOULD BE BETTER IF YOU HAVE A SOOTHING BALM.i got a normal one when i finished a mission(sry i don't remember which) YOU CAN BUY SUPER SOOTHING BALM AS WELL AS MINOR SOOTHING BALM from the store if you have a couple of amber]

--You can check out his lvl and health by using a spyglass

This worked for me.

UP THIS If this tip worked for you guys.

All I did to tame mine was:

Get my sarco boi

Get narco, meat and tranqs

Find spiney boi and take them to a river

Swim around in circles on your sarco

When you are far away, shoot them with tranqs

Repeat until their knocked out,

Feed them food and use your sarco to fight off any dinos

Then go back home

You need a high level sarco bc mine 44 and can kill Anything ;-;

Hope this helps! ^^

Get a flyer and get the spino argro, land on a cliff and shoot it with tranqs when it runs away chase it on ur flyer get near it and land then shoot it again repeat if needed!!

So, I live in the footpaw, which is supposed to be relatively safe if I'm correct. (I haven't actually seen any of the other spawnable areas :/ ) And for some reason these are spawning left and right, figuratively and literally. I managed to tame one, but I almost died. Anyway I heard they're great for getting prime fish meat.
