If flying isn't your thing then the spino is a great choice for a land-based mount. You can fight just about everything off, and if you can't fight something your most likely faster than it. And let's not forget the water buff.

If you ride a spino enemies will completely ignore you unless you either attack them or step on them by accident

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

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

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.

For anybody who want to tame a Spinosaurus without build a stone trap, here is a tip.

1. Ride a flyer (a any level of Tapejara with alot of health is highly recommended )

2. Find a Spinosaurus near the green obelisk

3. Aggro it and lure it to the green obelisk (watch your distance between you and the Spinosaurus. Don't be to close or to far)

4. Just go to the obelisk till the Spinosaurus fell to the cliff

5. Land your Tapejara to the cliff ( this is why you need Tapejara) and start shooting it with tranq dart till it unconscious

6. Spinosaurus will stuck to the cliff as it try to run away due to taking enough torpor damage so it won't escape and you won't have to waste your time chasing the run away spino and save your dart

7. Feed it with meat according to the dododex

P.S clean the obelisk from any threat that will make your taming process failed such as titanoboa, dilo, and raptor. I play on mobile if that's important

The trap I used for it was 3x3 stone foundation, then doorways all around the trap, two walls high. Then you place a ramp and lead it in, it worked perfectly for me.

Dododex say's 34 Mutton for a 145 Spino on 2x, on Aberration. But in reality its 42 tested it and it's about 8 Mutton more than it say's.

medyo mabilis lang toh guys kumpara sa Rex

pwede man siguro mag-fire ka mula sa likod ng Thyla o kaya Tapejara kung pwede

umiwas ka lang sa tubig pagkat sobrang bilis na niya guys

pwede man daan ka sa gubat para nahaharangan siya ng bato tas puno o kaya hayop

basta iyon

•English•

They're only slightly faster than the Rex in my opinion

you could fire from a Thylacoleo or Tapejara if you have

Avoid water though... If you know anything about the Spino then you know they have a Hydration buff and get super fast

maybe go through the forest so that it's cramped by trees and rocks and maybe other animals

just yeah

like

yeah

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.

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.

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.

I find that raw meat stays good longer in a spinous inventory, this is very good for storing prime

Better than Rex

Tyrannosaurus Rex? More like tyrannosaurus rekt
