Player-written tips for taming, using, and fighting the Spinosaurus in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.

Umm so I have a question. is the game broken? Because in the tips they say that beaches have the lowest treats and fewest resources but I found out that beaches have fewest resources and it is also hangout spot of the spino and theri so is this a normal thing or a bug ?

See one in your river(beach) run! The one in my river killed 2 tortoise things(forgot what they were called) 2 trikes tried to kill a Petra and my dilo

Find recently started breeding X Spinosaurus and I come out with even better stash than before which makes them even better than the Rex because it in my point of view they are a better breeder

Tamed spinos are absolutely amazing at gathering meat, hide and they can take on everything aside from Alpha Rexes , Gigas and Titanosaurs (obviously) .

How to kill this monster:

Shoot it with a crossbow in a cliff or kill it with a pteranodon. Make sure the cliff is high enough or not it can climb

One time a spino came out of knowhere and started attacking a trike then about 6 more came and trike stunned him then when it fled I ran after it my pistol blazing it died within 4-5 shots got lots of experience. So the lesson is Let other things fight then you go kill it.

Spinos are natural swimmers. they have large amounts of oxygen and dont use stamina in water. The would easily make my top 10, Top 5, or even Top 3 travel dinos since you can quickly cross maps via land AND water. They are also easy KO’s. A low lvl can take 5-6 tranq arrows…

Shoot with tranqs and use tree's to obstruct his chase try to make him turn in the tree's works like a charm just don't get to close and if you can put wild dino in between you and the spino

Me and my friend have 2 spinos and they are mate boosted and destroy everything great for meat runs and killing alphas just lead them into the ocean and go ham

The spino is very good for killing most creatures. Say it your in a raid and they try to escape or attack you from the water ur spino should put up quiet a fight

Go on a hill and tranq it maintain it’s torpor so it does not wake up use you food of choice raw fish meat,raw prime fish meat,kibble

On mobile they spwan around rivers and in rivers and occasionally the swamp or swamp red woods border now they are fast so a trap is recommended put a bunch of stone foundations and then stone doorframes all around stacked up on each other put 4 of them stacked for each side…

DO NOT LISTEN TO PEOPLE THAT SAY THIS IS EASY TO TAME these guys are fast and dangerous I tried taming one without a trap with tranq arrows and just kept running around if you plan on taming it without tranq darts use a trap

Hi spinos are my favourite Dino in ark one of my recommendations to find the is on the island, is you got to the first spawning option and go the backish area.

(Btw if you have a higher difficulty you will get more
