I dont see anyone talking about how these buggers are if you don't trap them and they start running.... Chased one across the map

They are my preferred dinosaur for going through the swamps. Nothing much aggros on them, and they can easily take out anything.

If you are lvl 20 or below run for your ever loving life because he shows no mercy

SOO... i was a lvl 25 at the time riding my new raptor when I saw a spino a thought to myself RUNNNNN but I was looking in my inventory and saw a soothing balm ...... to make a long story short my raptor died but I cam home with a new spino

So uh you know the person screaming they’re not useless? Hehheh....lemme explain why so I have a spino named “the eye of death” because his eyes were red. But his real name was “devil def” so we were out on our Rex with devil following us. And a Tapejara flying over us to keep eye out because devil was not that leveled...my Rex was at max level. Death...not so much so he was about lvl 123 so then we saw this super low lvl brontosaurus so we attacked it but it almost killed my Rex IN ONE HIT!!! It turned out my Rex was getting bit by raptors AND WE DIDNT NOTICE!! So my Rex called Rexy was almost dead until devil killed all the raptors (about 20 of them) got leveled up (about lvl 140) and completely wiped out that bronto since we just put him on attack target because Rexy would have died then it will attack us (bronto not the spino or Rex) so Rexy still survives today!! And they both found mates! Ze end!!!! ÙwÚ

To tame them you get Lure the spino to a cliff and tranq them

Changed my life is prime meat and tranq darts

Use 4 dino gates and 1 large bear trap. Place the bear trap in centre of 3 dino gates in a u shape big enough for spino to get in ,not to big, When the spino is in the trap stuck in the bear trap place the las dino gat blocking the spino inside. It takes 64 tranq darts using 167 longneck rifle. And 88 trans arrows. Need 200 narcotics to keep knocked out. Do not leave it without narcotics being consumed

To knock out spino find a high place or craft a pillar that is 10 blocks high then shoot the spino(recommended longneck rifle)(tranqdart)the until it run away from if it run away just keep firing until it know down

Once one of these things was chasing me. After about ten seconds the battle music stopped so I stopped sprinting. Then out of no where it jumped on top of me. The moral here is beaches are not safe

I saw a tip saying they can't be tamed underwater because they will drown. I don't think that's true. I'm currently taming one that's fully submerged, it's at 60% and full oxygen. Only about 3ft of his dorsal spines are above water. :)

On official I tamed a 130 bye getting it in a circle of giant bear traps and repeatedly head shoting it. With a master craft long neck and tranq darts took about 5-10 head shots. Used around 700 narcotics and used exceptional kibble. Still will take 2 hours though.

For me it preferred raw meat over fish meat. Wastes a lot of time trying to fees it fish meat and prime fish meat.

A spino is like arks ATV. It can swim fast, run fast, and now has a water boost and can do more damage on 2 legs.

Must hav tame for mid-late game aberration

USE SARCO ITS FASTER IN WATAR if you wanna fight it then just bully it with pteranadon by hitting and flying keep in mind that these can two shot you at level one since they do 60 damage and rapid fire so I tamed one by getting it low with some trans and trapping it in some rocks

Make a 4x4 trap out of stone two block tall walls then start leading it into the cage. Have one stone wall in your inventory when the spino is in the cage block the entrance.

If ur taming an spino u shoud trap it or it will run away way too fast it's pretty simple if u know what ur gonna need alot of tranqs btw

Spions prefer fish over meat wich means that you can easily kill saber salmons to get prime fish

to kill them easily all you have to do is be lvl 40, find a low level one (lvl 1-20) and get a shotgun with about 30 shells. you can two shot them if they are levels 1-12, so i recommend fighting low levels if your under level 50.
