He kill me a lot because I noob
you will need: fish, crossbow, tranq arrows, tame helper, narcotics and a flyer. (you can use a gun and darts) if your looking to tame one of these go to the big green metal thing in the sky and there is a little gorge around the center. find a spino and lead it in (make sure it’s not to far away) and you can shoot it and once it goes down hop on ur pteranodon, quetzal etc and fly down give it some fish and tame helper and narcotics and depending on the lvl u will have it in 1-20 mins FUN FACT: the big green thing in the sky i was talking about if you have a dinos implant and enough amber (it will say how many in the bottom right of the text) and you go to the green, red, purple/bule thing (idk what they are called lol 😅) in the sky you can revive the dino (WARNING: idk wether it works on computer but i done it on my iphone with a horse and it worked!) hope u enjoyed! (like so ppl know)
For trap you need only dino gate he cant go out from that and spino can easily jump from 3 hight wall use dino gate and for ramp use foundation for one side 4 wall hight required
In mobile RG kibble or prime fish meat recommended
It was said in Helena Walkers Spino Dossier that they prefer to stay close to the waters, so the next time you encounter one at a low level, stay as far away from it. But if it see’s you, run to a drier part of the island
Easy early game experience giver get on ptera agrro lead into shark infested waters wait until starts running FINISH HIM
Ok so what ur gonna need is 1. 200 Tranqs
2. 4 stone gates 3. And a pt I recommended you're lvl 40 so you atleast have a pteranodon
And two giant bear traps you can only make one but I make two for sure
Next make the gates in like a square oh only use 3 gates next you put the bear traps you lead it in its stuck so use the last gate for the way he/she got in
So she can't escape also there might be a baryonyx yeah so barys can be bola'd so no prob Now start tranqing the spino boom he's knocked out
Then I recommend biotoxin instead of narcotics get prime FISH meat while you're getting The biotoxin
And he/she's yours but when I said atleast lvl 40 you cry cuz you can't make saddle
If you encounter one and your like level 10 or 20 sorry bro say goodbye to all your hard work because you have been eaten😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
In order to battle this ABSOLUTE MONSTER OF A CREATURE you must take a powerful ranged weapon like a crossbow or something stronger if you don't have that........ UNLEASH HELL DO EVERYTHING YOU CAN TO STOP THIS THING. But don't consider moving
How to ride a Spino and move it without using a saddle. step one: tame a Spino. Step two: get above it somehow. Step three: jump on it. Step four: preferably get on its head or neck. Step five: face wherever you want to move. Step six: press comma, the dinosaur will then move to the green arrow that will appear. This will work on other Dino’s too.
Well I had to kill one of lvl 95 using my lvl 140 trike on the way back to my base
I mean it was not that difficult , the trike has knockback on attack and I was on a high ground with a slope to my advantage so just spammed attack to kill it.
But yeah I lured it out of water
Spinos Spawn Near Rivers, Lakes, etc. if you looking for taming tips: do not go close and suggest you shoot it with tranq/toxicant or darts from up high where it cannot reach you. I suggest prime meat or prime fish meat. But I tame mine with fish meat, bring a lot of narcotics!
I freaking love these things man they are Awesome and really easy to tame use a flyer or a fast land mount nock them out and get raw prime fish meat ready to go I’m breeding my happy hunting
So I’ve been trying to breed my two spinos for a while now but since they always walk away from each other’s when mating I need to build a pen but the thing is no matter how high I make the walls they always just walk out like my last try I made the pen 2 wooden walls and 2 railings high and it started well at first and they seemed to be struggling to get out but then the female somehow climbed out but the male was still in and stayed in for a good 5 minutes before getting out like how high can these things climb at this point I’m just frustrated à Rex can’t even walk over a single wall but they seemed to be struggling last time so I think one more railing high should do it but I wouldn’t be surprised if they just went “okay bye I’m leaving but I will be back soon” breeding spinos is no easy task I tamed the male complete on accident and getting the female after was already hard enough… and now I have to put up with the fact that my spinos keep leaving
I tamed a lvl 230 spino and the way I did it was I got it stuck between two rocks and a tree, I could just sit there and shoot it and it couldn’t touch me.
Spino is probably one of the best for Alpha killing. It’s very versatile in its movement, swimming fast and using the water buff to run fast. It can also hit fast and hard enough in the bipedal stance that it can knock back even alpha rexes. I’ve killed a lvl 280 alpha Rex without taking any damage by just spamming my mouse. Spino OP
I always find this spino in lake I don’t know what this thing do
On single player, it will definitely be a bit harder since you won’t have other “meat bags” to sacrifice. The best way I find to knock this Dino out is if you don’t have the tranquilizer engram, you use your highest ranged weapon (most likely the ascendant bow you’ll get from the Hunt Dilophosaur pursuit) that uses tranq arrows. Practice shooting if you want, but the spino has a large hit box because the fan on its back also counts as a part of it. Check Dododex on the possible level of the Spino you want to tame. Sometimes, you may want extra ammo to knock it down guaranteed. Finally, knock it down and make sure you have anything to increase its torpor by a lot. It’s not as bad as the Therizino from experience, but its torpor drains quickly so be sure to check it constantly. If you want a safety net when engaging. Mount on a tanky mount and make sure you can still shoot. That MAY only harm the Dino, which benefits from the armor by the saddle, depending on size. Good luck with taming.
