What are tips for spinosaurus? Tips and strategies for spinosaurus in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
Spino is really fast so if you go near his aggro range he will kill you! Spino has this water buff that makes him faster and stronger if he is in water
These things are the scariest thing when they chase you hands down they are ridiculously fast and will run down gallimimus if they are water boosted. If your gonna trap one use something very fast or stand in the trap.
Spino’s are OP but if you choose to tame one using a trap make sure they can’t run over it because the you have to re lure it in to the trap
I tamed my first spino in the redwoods and I built a trap with a LARGE BEAR TRAP and I kept having to feed it narcoberrys raw prime meat probably is better than normal raw meat. So keep a pronto trike or ankle with you to collect narcoberrys.
Best way I’ve found to tame them when your a low level is to stand on a ridge and shoot down at it and when it flees make sure you can corner it
Ok i use this taming method on rex, spino, and giga. You’ve got to pack ur self a flying mount, tranq arrows, crap ton narcotics, four metal billboards, and a bear trap. Set the signs up in a square near the spino. But LEAVE THE LAST ONE OUT of the circle. Put the bear trap in the middle. Lure it in the trap while on ur birdie and he’ll get stuck. Quickly place the last sign behind him and then fire away!
If u guys want to tame it I recommend caption fat dog he show traps and they are perfect
All you need to tame is four stone foundations eight stone doors and four wooden ramps this is by far the cheapest method.
Lay the foundations out in a square and put a stone door on each edge on the side facing towards desired spoon add the four wooden ramps making shore they go into the ground so they don’t get stuck then simply just shoot them take your flyer and fly over the trap high once in you can tranq him out and he won’t escape.
So its massive and intimidating but not that hard to tame. I have customised my settings abit cus I'm only solo player so my strategy may vary in effectiveness
I was in gloom grove- lost island, there was a waterfall and a hill too steep so he had nowhere to run either side; i took just under 150 tranq arrows and my journeyman crossbow, 163% dmg and 215 durab, I had around 70 trans left afterwards cus I missed afew shots
what I did was fly up to top of valley and build a foundation and catwalk to look out to shoot safely untill he was running then I parachuted down and chased him on my megalocerops (stag) cus hes fast, knocked him, killed any dangers and waited to tame, he was lvl 150 and I used 6 prime meat,
now i use him primarily to get Pearl's and oil from leeches right next to my cliff base, might not be 'the most efficient' to gather them to the pros out there but it's an easy 500 Pearl's and 2k oil in 3 mins running round and spamming attack :)
sorry so long but I couldnt make any shorter
If your thinking about taming one of these bad boys just make a row of 8 large bare traps and in each column put three four large bear traps so when they get out of the first bear trap they get trapped agian
These guys are Easy to tame because it only takes 4 to 10 tranq darts. One spino spawns at the weathertop region at the bottom of the map with a giant cliff you can stand at and shoot the spino at the bottom of the cliff.
The ULTIMATE Dino team: island, mobile compatible too
Tanks: 3-5 sarcos, a therizno, and 2 brontos
Scouts: high level raptors, and mabey some sabbers
Attackers: 1giga, 2 spinos, and a Rex (if no giga spino is great sub)
Pursuits: (not on mobile) a small team of pegos with some itchy seagulls both are to drain supplies
Ariel team: idrk about aerials so I’m thinking a quiztle and some pteranodons and tappys canons attached and riders with bows
When attacking a op tribe with these dinos here is a good strategy:
Send the scouts to survey the camp, and report back. Send the aerials first, they will be kinda of wave 1/2 and will distract the op players and keep eyes mostly off the ground. Then send in the pursuits. They will rob most of the players out of their stuff and distract them. Now, start moving in the tanks and the attackers. Have the brontos break through any wall that keeps the others from getting in and then start demolishing the base. Have the raptors and sabers stay at the edge of the base to catch escapers. With this strat you will totally ruin someone’s day but become sooo op if u
win 🏆
Best way to tame these, is to build a 3 x 3 stone platform, then put stone door frames 3-4 tall all around it. Then, build a ramp up one side and lure the spino into it. I prefer 4 tall walls, but 3 tall should work just fine.
Fastest way to tame it is step 1: tame a dire bear
Step 2: take ur dire bear to swamp cave on mobile
Finish swamp cave it’s the ez cave
Step 3: get the artifact go to the tribute therminal tribute it and hope for a soothing balm if h don’t get it don’t worry swamp cave is ez and the artifact Tesla an every second so try again and then ez put the soothing balm in Thera inv and use it then feed berries I got 2 soothing balm on three times if finishing the cave it’s sooo ez👍🏾
I have a low level (like 20) ichy. You think I could outswim this on him?
Soo many ppl talking about how to tame an over here seeing how long it will take depending on the food I give 😭
